There's a great Twitter hashtag, #inmice, which qualifies scientific research findings by reminding the public that the finding only occurred in mice. I've been wondering if we should start something for linguistics-related research like #inenglish.

  • I finally finished my coverage of @adarcy72 and Derek Denis' 2018 "Settler Colonial Englishes are Distinct from Postcolonial Englishes." It's all about reconsidering how we study colonialism and its effect on indigenous cultures and languages. This is Post 2 of the papers we're covering for the International Year of Indigenous Languages.
