FWIW, I collected data from 7000 North Americans about how they say Craig, and about half report saying it with /eɪ/, about a third with /ɛ/, and the rest somewhere in the middle.

See the top right figure in this #NWAV47 poster, about a third of the way down. joeystanley.com/downloads/18...

Side note - so cool to see more work on using the TP to predict outcomes in dialect contact! Our paper (Sneller @JoFrhwld and Yang) that describes this kind of a model is coming soon to a LVC near you! #NWAV47

Excited to see you all at #NWAV47!

Kodner: This aligns with the linguistic data, which shows transparent raising emerging at dialect boundaries between raising and non-raising dialects #NWAV47

Listening back through my sociolinguistic interviews as I prep for #NWAV47 - every time I listen back I get overwhelmed by the generosity of my participants and their willingness to share their lives with me. — feeling grateful

@jhstuartsmith kicking off the first morning session with voice quality and segmental change #NWAV47
November 4, 2024 at 11:40 PM
@jhstuartsmith and @msoskuthy: what looks like segmental change in /r/ is actually driven by a change in voice quality - a change in tongue body setting! #NWAV47

Cool work by @rkpurse on /l/ vocalisation in Philly English - a clear picture of change emerges when you closely define the envelope of variation #NWAV47

Excited about this next talk by Thomas, @davidadger, Heycock & Smith on testing the Tolerance Principle on the amn’t gap #NWAV47

Beautiful work by Thoms et al - showing the TP is calculated over underlying rule (NEG) not surface form (n’t ~ nae), which predicts accurately where amn’t is licensed in Scottish English #NWAV47

@LangMaverick, when asked about association of “be like” with young women: “yeah but you know... when DON’T we crap on young women?” #NWAV47

Lai et al: does expectation violations (leading to salience) facilitate linguistic acquisition? YES but stronger results for socio constraints than phonological ones #NWAV47

Also there was so much in this talk - style shifting, real time change, convergence and divergence. AND strong bird (GOOSE?) themes. So good! #NWAV47

Kodner: iterating learning in a mixed dialect situation with FULL raising, NO raising, and TRANSPARENT raising, transparent raising learners transition away from transparent raising #NWAV47

Nesbitt: changing /ae/ realization in Lansing results in changing syllabification judgements #NWAV47

Austen and Campbell-Kibler find no difference between -in and -ing in-the-moment ratings of ING, but the final overall ratings still are different!! The whole is more than the sum of its parts. #NWAV47

I love @rachelawiselure bringing in EEG to sociolinguistic questions!! #NWAV47

@LithesomeToll showing us all how to bring a metaphor home to roost #NWAV47

@RuthMaddeaux showing BEAUTIFUL child-adult comparison data for two changes in Toronto English #NWAV47

Kodner starting off Dialect Contact with a characteristically well color-schemed presentation #NWAV47
November 4, 2024 at 11:29 PM
Kodner using TP in a mixed dialect setting to show that transparent Canadian raising is a contact phenomenon, NOT the first step in raising #NWAV47

@jennycz bringing in very interesting data wrt chain shifts: individual data *not* showing chain shifted data even when a single vowel changes #NWAV47
