hope you feel better soon!

I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!

#ask #non mdzs #My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl #So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume #but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice #and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

That profile pic is an affront against nature, and I hoped I’d never have to see it after finishing my linguistics elective. And yet, I can’t stop looking. Thinking about the fact that someone made that, and then thought, “yeah, that’s a good enough icon for this tool I intend other people to put on their computer on purpose”

excuse you, i will not tolerate this disrespect for the TWO PEOPLE who developed praat, made it freely available, and continue to keep it functioning more than 30 years later

#justice 4 the praat logo! she's doing her best!!

De voorgestelde BTW verhoging van 9% naar 21% (12% verhoging) van het nieuwe "kabinet" op boeken en literatuur is een totale schande en een directe aanval op onze kunst en cultuur sector.

Leesvaardigheid daalt al jaren in Nederland, dit kan gewoonweg niet verder zakken zonder ernstige gevolgen te hebben, en de BTW verhoging zal de toegankelijkheid van boeken nog verder beïnvloeden op een negatieve manier.

↓ teken de petitie ↓

english below the cut

The proposed VAT increase from 9% to 21% (12% increase) of the new "parliament" on books and literature is a total shame and a direct attack on our arts and culture sector.

Reading skills have been declining in the Netherlands for years, this simply cannot decline any further without having serious consequences, and the VAT increase will further affect the accessibility of books in a negative way.

Ok! Gifts for two of my linguistics professors are done. Any ideas for crochetable things related to semantics, syntax, or translation are welcome.

#linguistics #my art #praat #wug #crochet #pickle pontificates #thi was my first time cross stitching on crochet #technically second if you count the failed attempt at this where i used a green yarn for the background that just ended up looking nasty #both patterns are my own

It seems the further in higher education I get, the more we are free labor for established academics rather than students being taught directly.

I'm taking this course in field linguistics methodology and it's less a class of students learning a skill from a professor and more just two PhD students and eight undergrads learning on the job to assist a professor in his hobby project documenting a small regional Tibeto-Burman dialect of which a good friend of his is a native speaker and the world's leading expert.

#linguistics #language documentation #tibeto-burman #regional dialects #undergrad student #i am forever haunted by phonetics and phonology #i don't care what the TA says this is not all phon and games #the ipa is my nemesis #also Praat can die a slow userless death #ELAN is on thin ice
