This tweet has made my day.
Just saw a paper published in 2024 that claims a new analysis about a certain phenomenon challenging traditional ones, yet the new analysis is exactly what people from (at least) the 90's were saying... I mean, a google search was enough to see this.

Can any linguist here point me to how I can calculate surprisal from a corpus? If you know of a tool or library I can use (Python or R preferred), it'd be great! Thanks in advance! :)
having to climb up and down trees before i am even able to linearize them takes the cake for being the easiest workout though (most of the time)
If you consider yourself a speaker of English, check this out?
I don't normally beg for data, but anyone wanna help me collect some pilot data? 🥺 It only takes 10–15ish minutes. Self-identified speakers of English, please. Please do this task on a computer! Happy to explain the hypotheses by DM later. farm.pcibex.net/p/CaeQPT/

Syntax class: “You can say infinite sentences with no effort!” Making stimuli: “I only know three sentences and I’ve used them all up”

They should invent a profession where half the time you study texts in monastic solitude and half the time you talk animatedly to a room full of young people

This girl on TikTok said Hozier is qawwali for white people and I can’t get over how right she is 😭
"Marsiya-e-Dilli-e-Marhum" - a poem lamenting the loss of Delhi was recited in Lahore by Altaf Hussain Hali in the 1870s. A translation by Folkloristan:
JK what does this word mean? Which language is this, do you know it?
Every academic needs friends who have no idea what you research and don't care.
Ryan (@cogscidude) asked a question about whether the human mind is Turing-complete. There are different ways to take the question, but the most straightforward one illustrates how (IMO) we have lost sight of what *computation* is.

SHARP INTAKE OF BREATH
What I might have to tell myself over the PhD result season.
I just realized how gay syntax is, as I pressed Send to this text "You the goal and I'll send the probe" regarding an assignment where we thought we'd work together.
here I was fantasizing about languages with a default irrealis
I agree with the importance of documentation and revitalization. However, as someone who got into academic linguistics thanks to Tolkien, I think conlangs are also the easiest and most accessible way into linguistics for many people, especially now.
Here are 3 reasons why I hate conlangs: (conlang = “constructed language”, an invented language like Dothraki or Klingon or Na’vi or Esperanto) 1/14
I can't think of even prescriptively saying "It is he/she/they", when looking out the door and seeing a guest I was expecting. Is this rule present only for me vs. I and not for other pronouns?
This is actually a nice example of a widespread idea of how grammar works that's just... not well-founded. 1/
