Report from the LSA Linguistic Institute: Joseph Tyler

From Joseph:
“This summer at the Linguistics Summer Institute, I was able to take courses in Prosody, Pragmatics, Intonational Typology and more. Furthermore, I was able to work closely with scholars from around the world on my discourse prosody research project, bringing perspective and insight into my current work and ideas for valuable follow-up studies. Particularly valuable were conversations with Delphine Dahan from Penn and Carlos Gussenhoven from the Netherlands. After talking with each of them, I was just flush with excitement!
The institute was a ton of fun. The people were super friendly and linguistics permeated everything. Where else would the average person know about glottal stops and conversational implicatures?”
