About this deal

Well, why does this matter? As flippantly as we can talk of language myths, put simply, what’s widely considered bad grammar, or bad language, can have truly problematic repercussions for how many people live, especially for those who speak dialects that aren’t considered standard, mainstream, or prestigious. It still is very much the case that many people, without thinking, can harbor negative assumptions about the different ways other people speak. This can have a profound effect on how whole speech communities can live, learn, work, and even play. Getting job interviews, renting an apartment, raising kids to have better options and advantages, even getting through an unexpected, fraught interaction with the police— all these things can be made much harder simply because of a particular accent or dialect.

Finally, we looked at the models with the scores from the racial bias subscale from the PJAQ race bias subscale, the SRS, CSE-R, and the two BIDR subscales added (means and SEMs are reported in Table 3). For choice, speech stereotypicality remained a significant predictor, B = –0.61, SE = 0.16, p< 0.001. The interactions between the racial bias subscale and voice and the SRS and voice were also significant, B = 0.11, SE = 0.02, p< 0.001, and B = –0.06, SE = 0.01, p< 0.001, respectively. The slope for racial bias on face choice was greater for low stereotypicality voices than high stereotypicality voices, z = 5.71, p< 0.001. At 1 SD above the mean on the racial bias subscale, participants were not significantly more likely to choose the high phenotypicality face after hearing the high stereotypicality voice, z = 1.22, p = 0.442. However, at 1 SD below the mean, participants were over seven times more likely to choose the high phenotypicality face after hearing the high rather than low stereotypicality voice, z = 5.85, p< 0.001, OR = 7.58.

Linguistics 53 Tense: The is in he is dreaming is an example of present tense. It tells you that something is happening in the present. In the case of he was dreaming, the was tells you that something happened in the past. When the verb to be is used in this way (“is, was, are, were,” etc.) we call it the copula.

Dev. 81 To explore how perceived speech stereotypicality influences face selections, we first ran a mixed effects logistic regression on participants’ chosen faces (Low or High Phenotypicality). The initial model included voices (Low or High Stereotypicality) as a fixed effect and participants and the individual face pairs entered as random intercepts. We also ran a mixed effects regression on choice confidence with the same fixed and random effects to see if speech stereotypicality had any undue influence on participants’ confidence in their face selections. Criticism of that hypothesis stems from the fact that there is no evidence that be has been used as a habitual marker either in the past or today in Caribbean creoles of English. [4] Instead, Caribbean English uses the preverbal does to mark habitualness. They use be only as filler between does and the sentence's predicate. Botinis A.

THE GRADE

Ain’t nobody got time for double negatives…said no grammar pedant ever. To a prescriptivist, using double negatives for actually emphasizing more negation is just the worst. If I’m not saying nothing, obviously I must be saying something. As the assumption goes, because two negatives must logically cancel each other out, people who use double negatives in this way must also logically be uneducated or unintelligent. This, of course, is a false belief that is still widely shared in mainstream American culture (possibly even among speakers who regularly use double negation themselves). These distinctive Ebonics pronunciations are all systematic, the result of regular rules and restrictions; they are not random 'error'--and this is equally true of Ebonics grammar. For instance, Ebonics speakers regularly produce sentences without present tense is and are, as in "John trippin" or "They allright". But they don't omit present tense am. Instead of the ungrammatical *"Ah walkin", Ebonics speakers would say *"Ahm walkin." Likewise, they do not omit is and are if they come at the end of a sentence--"That's what he/they" is ungrammatical. Many members of the public seem to have heard, too, that Ebonics speakers use an 'invariant' be in their speech (as in "They be goin to school every day"); however, this be is not simply equivalent to is or are. Invariant be refers to actions that occur regularly or habitually rather than on just one occasion. What do people think of Ebonics? Cantone J. A., Martinez L. N., Willis-Esqueda C., Miller T.

While many thought it was an effort to secure federal bilingual education funding, the claim was an unintentional error on the board’s part, according to some of those involved at the time. “They weren’t linguists,” according to Darolyn Davis, who handled crisis communications for the district during that period. “They didn’t use the word ‘language’ from a linguistic point of view.” KOJII Languages is designed to spread the linguistic and cultural facets of less known languages across the world. Founded in 2019 by Joshua Conrad-Tanakh and his company JCSURGE, KOJII Languages aims to provide a comprehensive digest program for as many lesser-known languages as possible by providing a unique approach to teaching known as ‘infotainment’ in a semi-formal and informal tone.
