If related to differences between “sounds” and “writing”, I use this I love Lucy video: youtu.be/MAL9VD6Lz9Y This shows the one-to-many for writing to sounds and I add the inverse with other examples — sound /i/ written in pizza, receive, sheet, etc

I enjoy that there are a lot of "firsts" in my job. Today's: a graduate-level discussion-based seminar (I'm teaching Construction Morphology this term) involving an excellent discussion of the "beer me" construction, including this non-prototypical use #constructiongrammar #CxG

Excited to be giving this talk later today (11 a.m. BOT = 11 a.m. EDT)! I love the work that the Linguistics Summer School Bolivia (lssbolivia.com/) is doing and Bolivia was where I wanted to do my PhD research (long story...) so this is a fantastic opportunity!

Here's a picture from when he was found. The markings on Wilbur's (Freddie's brother who now lives with a family not too far from us and goes by Brodhi) right ear are even more similar to Niko's :)

This is perhaps a better picture :) Freddie came from Bay City (TX); he was found with his brother beside a house and we adopted him through an organization here (he and his brother made the trip all the way to Toronto in a transport chain organized by volunteers!).

Your dog looks so much like my dog! Is he/she a rescue from TX? (I'll try to get a better picture where the brown markings are more visible, if he ever sits still...)

I usually go for a walk every day, mostly in the afternoons after work. Today I went for a walk bright and early and was rewarded a view of with these guys who were also out on a walk (and doing a bit of roughhousing) #downtownwildlife #Toronto #foxes #blackfox

I was hoping things (= amount of writing projects on the back burner during the school year) would get better as the years pass but you’re making it seem like they don’t!
