#sociolinguistics — Public Fediverse posts

#NoWorries has basically been absorbed into British slang now. I reckon you can blame Neighbours and Home And Away for that.

Also commonplace now is #Shonky and #Crook as in ill.

I have yet to hear average Brits call each other a #Galah or #Hoon but I live in hope.

"LANGUAGE, CULTURE, AND IDENTITY IN ST. MARTIN is intended to contribute to the language education discourse and provide some insight into how language and culture affect and are affected by identity in St. Martin. Exploring the basic syntactical structure of the St. Martin language, it aims to stimulate further and deeper studies leading to a new awareness of the nature of the language. Furthermore, the book could serve to provide a knowledge base from which the analysis of cultural, identity, and educational issues confronting the South and North of this Caribbean island can be made and understood."

So, I guess I'm here! I'm a #linguist working on #HistoricalLinguistics, #Phonology, #Sociolinguistics, and #LanguageContact. I'm a group leader at the #MPI #EvolutionaryAnthropology and work primarily on #Polynesian, #Vanuatu and other #Oceanic languages and societies.
