#linguistweets #lt1515 Today we’re talking about a new phenomenon on the Francophone Twittersphere: people behind Twitter accounts of cats talking like a cat, as if they were a cat. For English, we know it as Lolspeak/Kitty Pidgin: it’s a Special Internet Language Variety. 1/

I really wish more academics would realize that time boundaries (making sure we have breaks at events, classes finish on time, evenings/weekends are protected, we don't expect answers to non urgent emails in 24 hours) are about INCLUSION & not a nice extra, but the strict minimum

Anglophone cats are known for their baby voice + specific ortho, gramm & lex features. Francophone cats combine a childlike code AND a formal register. Both features create the sociolinguistic persona of cats as ambivalent animals… who made it into the newspaper! (trad: ALT) 2/

Conclusion: not an artificial or constructed language (as some Tweeps say) but a sociolinguistic style (as @SutterlinKatz argues). This study shows how people integrate to digital networks by adopting the (perceived) norms of core members of the community of practice 6/6

Typical for cats is fake politeness, graphematic variation around phonetic elision & ‘that’-constructions that become so salient that new accounts adopt only THIS feature to become part of the community and not the full range of features + not in the same syntactic position 5/

Cats display a rich interplay of lexical features, but very few are used ONLY by cats: - euphemisms: la grande sieste (‘the big nap’ = the death) - formal register: prédater (‘predate’), prestance (‘stature’), outré / scandaloutrage (‘outraged’), even used as a #Hashtag 4/

So, yes, rejections are part of the job, and at least you tried, and you put yourself out there, and it doesn't have to say anything about the quality of your work, and it's not only about you, etc. And still. It hurts. Today, it really hurts.

Higher ed in 2022 in France & Germany: Same crushed hopes, same precarity, same absence of perspectives, and mobbing and harassment at every corner. Yeyyy 🤡 [ALT] #IchBinHanna #IchBinReyhan

@doc_scholz In Junge Frau, am Fenster stehend, Abendlicht, blaues Kleid von Alena Schröder ist die Hauptprotagonistin Doktorandin in Literaturwiss in Berlin. Dabei werden viele (sehr problematische) Aspekte (z.B. Betreuung bzw. Verhältnis zum 'Doktorvater', Gender-Bias, etc.) thematisiert.

They say “Sleep when the baby sleeps”, but what if the only thing you want to do when the baby sleeps is look at them and how perfect they are? 🥹

I am now signing the copyright form for the paper “‘I am a real cat’: French-speaking cats on Twitter as an enregistered variety and community of practice” to be published in Internet Pragmatics! Very excited to get the cats' reactions on this one 😻🙀😽

Four years ago today, I submitted my 712-page long (😳) dissertation, for it to be read by seven (!) committee members from France, Germany, and Switzerland, just as the semester was about to begin with four entirely new courses to teach. Feeling a bit sentimental 🤓🥰

One of the hardest things in academia is to know how to stop. And then to actually do it. Today I spontaneously decided not to attend the plenaries at #IPrA2021 . Did I experience intense decision fatigue and FOMO? Oh yes. Am I very much enjoying my cake and coffee? Also yes.

Almost 9 months after giving birth, an international move, landing a new job, teaching + grading a new lecture with 120+ students, making it to the final round of a big grant, with almost no daycare, back to the yoga studio 💫 Making it a priority now, academic writing can wait.

I have a joke about qualitative research but I’m not sure how representative it is.

Und da ich ja zufälligerweise über die Pragmatik und Semantik von u.a. Quantifikatoren promoviert habe, hier ein kleiner Hinweis: „Einige“ sind die anderen. „Einige wie ich“ geht natürlich, in der Tat aber kaum: Es handelt sich um eine argumentative Strategie zur Distanzierung.

Last days to download my paper, “(When) Can I say Du to You? The Metapragmatics of Forms of Address on German-Speaking Twitter”! Free of charge for 3 more days (but there will be an author's version on an #OpenAccess repository after that, of course).

Today I have written the very first draft of the very first page of my very first book. The first sentence —for now—: "Imagine that you are coming home after a long trip." Ready to turn this dissertation into a book! 📕 #phdchat

This is one of these exciting weeks: A paper I really care about—on linguistic racism and the German school system—, co-authored with a teacher, Martina Oldani, has just been accepted for publication by Linguistics and Education subject to a final round of very minor revisions 🤩

@lapsyrevoltee Les Pieds sur terre est l'un de mes coups de cœur. C'est doux, poétique, sans jugement, sans explication, juste des voix, des petits bouts de vie, des personnes qui (se) racontent, s'émeuvent, se sont parfois perdues, parfois jamais retrouvées. C'est beau.

I'm not sure how to say this & how to come back from what happened, but I feel this is important: I haven't been feeling like myself lately. I had another surgery under general anesthesia. If I owe you an email, need an extension, or forget things, please bear with me. To 2022 ✨
