As a self-organized system. Wednesday, November 21, 2012. Spanglish, espanglish, etc. Otheguy, R. and N. Stern. (2010, Nov.) On So-called Spanglish. We shouldn't use the term "Spanglish" because it robs North American Hispanics of the feeling of having their own language. What they have is a North American version of Spanish, and is a complete language. Rosa Maria Jimenez, “SPANGLISH”: THE LANGUAGE OF CHICANOS. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

As a self-organized system. Saturday, February 2, 2013. Now in the time since then both words, "sex" and "gender" have changed somewhat in people's interpretation, but the truth behind it is the same. A language's marking is separate from the physical characteristics of the thing marked. Just for example, I said, is there any good reason "book" is male in Spanish? One student brought up the possibility that there was. Two women mentioned that in Spanish, it was an issue how one addresses a group of mixed...

As a self-organized system. Sunday, December 30, 2012. There's a benefit to the world getting smaller, and our being able to know more information, have it at our fingertips, be more worldly, etc. And that is, people no longer pawn off assumptions based on parochial thinking, that don't stand up to the facts. At least they do this less. Because they're more likely to be proven wrong, and they're more careful. Ah, but here's one I can't resist. It's all very tentative, because what do I know? In English, ...

As a self-organized system. Friday, September 28, 2012. One question on the test had to do with linguists' attitude toward prescriptive grammar. As an answer on the test, many students said that linguists don't care for it. It constrains us or keeps us from saying what we want, one student said. No, finally I stomped my foot and said, linguists have been maligned on this issue and I won't tolerate it. Human behavior as much as it tries to control. The return of the test today caused a bit of a stir. ...
