NWAV 52 Flyer

This month Florida International University and the University of Miami hosted the 52nd annual Ways of Analyzing Variation (NWAV) conference in Miami. Our Linguistics Department was fortunate to have multiple faculty members and students participate this year. 

Ph.D student Keiko Bridwell presented the paper “Place, Politics, and the Southern Vowel Shift.”

Ph.D student Hyunjin Lee presented the poster “Perceptual Differences between Seoul and Kyungsang Dialect Speakers on Tensification in English Loanword Adaptation in Korean.”

Faculty members Dr. Jon Forrest and Dr. Margaret Renwick presented "Natural Class Reorganization over Apparent Time by Prelateral /u/ and /oʊ/ in Georgia."

Amazing job to all involved!
