Nice way to see off 2023: my third and final PhD paper published in SLR (open access)! 'The role of L2 input in developing a novel L2 contrast phonetically and phonologically: Production evidence from a residence abroad context' doi.org/10.1177/026765…

James Turner @TurnerTweeting from DELTEA @unisouthampton: our AI-based app uses 2 measures: built-in sound scores for sound-symbol correspondences, as well as word-level sound scores #BAAL2024

Summary of our recent paper on @GrowKudos. Based on our native speaker data, we propose a new syntactic analyses of Mandarin resultative constructions and apply this to second language acquisition @TurnerTweeting growkudos.com/publications/1…

In this article, we investigate the acquisition of null and overt subjects in Mandarin resultative constructions by L1 English speakers @TurnerTweeting @ModernLangs jbe-platform.com/content/journa…

@charlottelee33 @LewisBaker7414 @isbpac2024 @unisouthampton @ModernLangs No sorry!

@TurnerTweeting @LewisBaker7414 @isbpac2024 @unisouthampton @ModernLangs What about ECEM? ☺️

Had a lot of fun presenting our new eye-tracking research: phon effects in predictive processing of syntax with my co-author @LewisBaker7414 at @isbpac2024! Reunion for us @unisouthampton @ModernLangs grads and some really positive feedback 😊 Now for the write up 😅

@M_Llompart @LewisBaker7414 @isbpac2024 @unisouthampton @ModernLangs Next time!! Hopefully Eurosla? (Though no funding as of yet… ☹️)

@TurnerTweeting @LewisBaker7414 @isbpac2024 @unisouthampton @ModernLangs Sound really cool! Man, why didn't I submit something to ISBPAC...

@agosler @MansfieldOxford @OxfordBiology In “Teaching Pronunciation with AI”, @SuzanneJaneGrah @anthonyPZhang @Dr_Heike_K and the team explore how digital stories and accompany activities are being trailed in schools as part of the #DELTEA research project @UniRdg_IoE @UniRdg_CeLM @TurnerTweeting @unisouthampton

Our next talk is by James Turner and Lewis Baker 👇 #ISPBAC24

Incredible and comprehensive introduction to stats and R for linguists by Jessamyn Schertz! 👩‍💻📈 R bookdown link here: individual.utoronto.ca/jschertz/teach…

@M_Llompart Thanks so much! Yes, that would be great 😂

@TurnerTweeting Congrats! I’m looking forward to reading it (and also to meeting you at some point 😉)

@jvcasill @ramsesortin Thanks so much @jvcasill !

@TurnerTweeting @ramsesortin Really cool study and great data viz. Nice work and congrats!

Using K-medoid clustering of acoustic data, I tease apart gradient and categorical change to analyse how different quantities and qualities of L2 input affect both types of development. Read to find out more! doi.org/10.1177/026765…

This paper focuses on the development of French /y/ and /u/ production by L1 English learners of French over a Residence Abroad (RA) in a French-speaking country.

@zjajwyz This looks great! Looking forward to reading. Congrats!

New publication out 🚨 My new paper 'Processing of English Coda Laterals in L2 Listeners: An Eye-Tracking Study' investigated the cognitive competition between L2 forms during speech perception. 👂Mandarin speakers cannot hear dark L's sometimes... journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00…

@M_Llompart Congrats! Looking forward to reading 😊

I just got a paper accepted in Studies in Second Language Acquisition and imagine my surprise when the journal actually ENCOURAGED me to share the postprint in an open repository 😱 I love where this is going @CambUP_LangLing. Here's a link, btw. osf.io/h8c3q

@MCHLinguistics ☹ dislike

Cheeky little grant rejection on a Friday 🔥🔥🔥

@joey_stan I've recently checked out Deepgram (free trial) and used its output with MFA for aligned textgrids. Does a reasonable job but guess it depends what for 😊

I'm looking for automatic transcribers that produce output that can be eventually turned into a Praat TextGrid. The audio is American English, interviews with older people, recorded on cassette tapes in 1980–90s and varies wildly in quality. Free or paid is okay. Thank you!
