lozguistics: August 2011
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 5, 2011. Strange ideas I sometimes have. I was chatting to a class about dialects of English the other day, and how some are so different as to almost boarder on being non-mutually comprehensible. I think it would be excellent to have a Creole where the superstrate and substrate languages are both English. I got terribly excited about the idea but the students didn't appear to take to it as much as I did. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

lozguistics: September 2011
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 11, 2011. This year I'm making the most of being home for a whole 12 months by doing lots of teaching as well as lots of writing. Last week I was fortunate enough to give a lecture in the subject that I'm tutoring for! The subject is all about linguistic diversity, and it's designed for students who are at the end of their undergraduate course. Hopefully the students also found it relatively painless.

lozguistics: February 2012
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Friday, February 24, 2012. The disappearing field trip. This blog has taken a bit of a back seat this year. That's partly because of Superlinguo. I guess, but also partly because this is no longer so novel. I'm used to Kathmandu, with it's shoddy electricity, cows on the road and chaotic colour. I'm also more relaxed and confident about exactly what the hell I'm doing with my work day to day. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

lozguistics: Spring at home
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2011/10/spring-at-home.html
Monday, October 3, 2011. Thanks to a couple of years of fieldwork it's been a long time since I've enjoyed a spring at home. It's been so nice with the football grand final, the start of daylight savings and the jasmine blossoms. It makes a change from the humid, sticky end of monsoon in Nepal!

lozguistics: year three (?)
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2011/07/year-three.html
Friday, July 8, 2011. Are just a bit too close to reality:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I'm a PhD candidate in linguistics. I blog here about my field-work adventures in Nepal and lack of adventures while back home. I also like talking about linguistics in general, which you can read here: http:/ superlinguo.tumblr.com/.

lozguistics: Into India
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2012/01/into-india.html
Monday, January 30, 2012. I'm in India this week for the North East Indian Linguistics Society annual conference. Having only just settled into Kathmandu life I've suddenly found myself sight-seeing in Delhi for a few days and today I'm heading to Assam where the conference is being held.

lozguistics: Hello, Goodbye
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2012/01/hello-goodbye.html
Thursday, January 12, 2012. Hello sadly neglected blog! Another field trip looms - I'll be back in Nepal on Monday for the final PhD-related visit. It's only two months, which I know sounds facetious given that two months is a long time, but after the previous visits this one feels much shorter. I'll also be spending a week of that time at a conference in India, as though two months weren't short enough already. It's been a big year of linguistics for me. Superlinguo. With speakers of a related language.

lozguistics: Back in the 'du
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2012/01/back-in-du.html
Sunday, January 22, 2012. Back in the 'du. It's nice to be back, but Nepal is having the coldest winter in quite a while and the chilly temperatures in the morning and evening are quite a shock. The days are still warm enough if the sky is clear and the sun can shine - and it's certainly a good topic of conversation. January 23, 2012 at 4:13 AM. Stay warm. The NE is having one of its coldest winters too. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Gastro, Bhandas, and Festivities.

lozguistics: May 2011
http://lozguistics.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 30, 2011. The Nepali postal system has set a new benchmark in tardiness and inefficiency. A postcard that I sent to the Handsome Penpal arrived on Friday. Which is quite impressive considering that I sent it in early October last year. good thing it didn't say anything too important! Links to this post. Friday, May 27, 2011. My IPA craft project. I don't normally cross-post content here and over at Superlinguo. I cross stitched the pulmonic consonants of the International Phonetic Alphabet.
