I know this topic has mostly been claimed by biological anthropologists and psychologists, but Linguistic Anthropologists, what's your favorite explanation of #LanguageOrigins? Something that centers interactions more than information?

Tagging the linguistics feed on this one because it’s seekritly an intro linganth case study that’s all about ideologies of phaticity.

Happy new year, and this week I’m officially on the masthead of Current Anthropology with my fab colleague @cjfrieman.bsky.social as joint Editors in Chief. We are the first arch/anth EIC duo - so if you’re in Bian, Arch, SocioCultural, or LingAnth, hit us up! We are happy to field questions!

In which I cite @attackerman.bsky.social on @xplainthexmen.bsky.social, and also on @cerebrocast.bsky.social, some classic linganth theory, and also talk about one of my favorite things, Soviet Nationalities Policy. And the X-Men. Thanks @mikemena.bsky.social for the inspiration!

Folks in #ling and #linganth who work on translation / bilingualism: what's the term (if one) for when a word/phrase is translated into another language at the end of an utterance? Usually for clarification. Like "He's a pendejo - an idiot".

Anthro 101

WEIRD societies set the “norm.”

And only certain groups within those societies.

Why there’s no such thing as normal in child development
One of the tricky things about researching child development is that it occurs within a cultural and social context.

This reading challenge fascinates me, including the explanation for it. I too have been following the convo about how people "aren't reading" but it depends what we mean. I'm teaching about media and modalities this semester and will definitely share this.

I will need all my socio/linganth buds to start talking about the enregisterment of pompousness, tyvm.
Amusing description of a three-way coding scheme for speech style, based on "vocabulary and phrasing," -- "Colloquial, formal, pompous." (Newman & Mather, 1938, p916) #linguistics

I know right?

My spouse has helpfully pointed out that my dad (who is not actually especially right) is very brainwashed by prestige, and all can I say to that is, COULD HE NOT AT LEAST BE BRAINWASHED BY THE PRESTIGE OF MY PHD ffs I have one of the shiniest linganth PhDs a person can have.

While I’m trying to formulate some publishable linganth thoughts about understanding who we should be holding responsible for LLM hallucinations, it was DELIGHTFUL to come across these panels in Iron Man #2 written by @attackerman.bsky.social and illustrated by Julius Ohta and Alex Sinclair

Yale also has bioanth type people in EEB and the medical school, and one ling anth (and I am in linguistics with a secondary appointment and am linganth adjacent)

Yes "podcast" means 'something recorded, audio or video,' at least the way my students use it now. This is similar to how "novel" means 'a book that is not a textbook' to undergrads. Sure, that's not how I use it. But this expansion of meaning is fascinating

I was reading this earlier today and gnashing my teeth and I am trying to formulate linganth frameworks for thinking about this RIGHT NOW in my writing bc thinking of LLMs as humans allows actual humans to dodge responsibility for what they’re doing.
