neopronouns grammatical gender liveshow lingthusiasm episode 60 that s the kind of episode it s clitics here s a completely normal and unremarkable sentence let s imagine we have two different coloured pens and we re going to circle the words in red and the affixes that s prefixes and suffixes in blue later today i ll know if i hafta get some prizes for helen of troy s competition or if it isn t necessary some of these are pretty straightforward some word the s on prizes affix but some of them i ll hafta helen of troy s isn t hmmm in this episode your hosts lauren gawne and gretchen mcculloch get enthusiastic about a small bit of language that s sort of a halfway point between a standalone word and a fully glommed on affix the clitic we talk about why sentences like that s the kind of linguist i m feel so strange and how on the one hand clitics are a sign of increased efficiency in terms of saying more common words more quickly but on the other hand they kind of add complication because there are some contexts where the full forms of the words would be fine and yet the clitic doesn t work giving you one more thing to keep track of we also talk about clitics and reduced forms of words in yolmo old english and dutch and how clitic pronouns might be evolving into affixes in french and spanish click here for a link to this episode in your podcast player of

welcome to lingthusiasm a podcast that s enthusiastic about linguistics i m gretchen mcculloch i m here with dr kirby conrod who s a linguist at the university of washington but first some announcements the lingcomm grant is still open until june 1st you should apply for that if you have a linguistics communication project that you think will helped by a bit of money and a bit of support there s more details for that on the website at lingcomm org that s comm with two ms as in communication we ll link to that in the description as well music gretchen hello kirby welcome to the podcast kirby good morning thank you for having me gretchen thank you so much for coming i wanna start with the first question that we ask all of our guests which is how did you get interested in linguistics kirby i have to preface this by saying that i didn t know i was going to major in linguistics when i went to my undergrad for my four year college i got into uc santa cruz it was lower on the list but i ended up having an amazing time when i was applying to colleges from high school i thought i wanted to be an english major i got to uc santa cruz and i realised oh my gosh you guys don t have an english major it s just not a program that they have so i was like okay well i m gonna make my own english major out of spare parts what i did was i decided okay i m gonna double major in literature and linguistics and that will make an english major what ended up happening was i essentially made somehow the opposite of an english major it really ended up being the absolute perfect thing for me what really cemented like linguistics is where i was going to stay for sure was my first syntax class in my first year of undergrad the first day of class my professor jim mccloskey walks into the class and says and i m a freshman i m a little baby at this point he walks into the class and says this is probably the hardest class that this university offers please don t take it for a grade i have to say it was good advice it was very hard taking it pass fail meant that i could really focus on what i was learning this was a syntax 1 class syntax is all about the idea that we can make an equation to put words together to produce only the real sentences of language and not the sentences that don t happen in language by the end of the quarter you have a pretty good working model of what sentences can be it s not complete yet it s always an ongoing project the other thing that really drew me to linguistics was that my instructors in undergrad were always really honest about this and i try to be really honest too about this is not a solved problem this happens constantly now that i m teaching syntax 1 and i m on the other side of the room it happens constantly that students will ask me questions that the answers don t exist yet it s not that the answers aren t out there it s that we haven t figured it out yet this happens all the time as a student to me that was really moving and exciting of feeling like i could contribute something there s a lot that needs to be contributed in undergrad my instructors were very upfront about this of undergrads can and do produce new knowledge in their linguistics classes sometimes undergrads go to conferences present their work do original research it happens because there s just a lot of unexplored space gretchen this was something i found really exciting as an undergrad as well that i can be looking at things and no one else has looked at this kirby it s really really cool it s one of these things that it gives you goose bumps to be sitting in a class and realise if i have an idea of how to deal with this then i m the first person to have this idea i don t have to just go back into the literature and find so and so has already solved this problem it s a matter of i can solve this problem that s really really compelling gretchen you don t have to go through 200 years or 500 years or 1 000 years of intellectual tradition of i need to learn this entire history before i can possibly make any sort of contribution to this area it s like this is a young field and there s still stuff to do that kirby it feels like a math class where math isn t finished being invented keep reading 6 years ago 77 notes share on facebook share on twitter share on pinterest share on google linguistics lingthusiasm

not a man i meet but doth salute me as if i were their well acquainted friend and the oxford english dictionary has citations for both going back to the 14th century more recently people have also been using singular they to refer to a specific person as in alex left their umbrella in this episode your host gretchen mcculloch interviews dr kirby conrod a linguist who wrote their dissertation about the syntax and sociolinguistics of singular they we talk about kirby s research comparing how people use third person pronouns like they she and he in a way that conveys social attitudes like
