Here are the show notes for Episode 55, in which Jacky and Dan talk to Dr Christian Ilbury, Lecturer in Linguistics and English Language in the School of Philosophy, Psychology and Language Sciences at The University of Edinburgh about:
Being an online linguist
Social media and language change - why itâs complicated
Why âslangâ is an unhelpful word and why âinternet vernacularâ is a better term for the kind of styles he is looking at
Appropriation and diffusion
Media discourses about young people, online language and technology
His continuing work on MLE and why âMLEâ is still a useful term
Christianâs University of Edinburgh profile: https://www.ed.ac.uk/profile/christian-ilbury
Some appearances in the media that we mention: https://theconversation.com/theyre-serving-what-how-the-c-word-went-from-camp-to-internet-mainstream-210214
https://www.theguardian.com/music/2024/apr/09/bait-ting-certi-how-uk-rap-changed-the-language-of-the-nation
âYou have quite a long history of British vernaculars being exported through British cultural forms,â says Christian Ilbury, a lecturer in sociolinguistics at the University of Edinburgh â from Scouse accents with the Beatles to Arctic Monkeys and the presence of industrial working-class accents in indie music. âGrime essentially became the vehicle in which we perceived MLE.â Those kids in suburban England, he says, âdonât speak this variety because of where they grew up. Theyâre using it to align with a cultural orientation that they appreciate.â
https://linguistics-research-digest.blogspot.com/2019/10/
âSlayâ, âyaas kweenâ, âsquadâ â if youâre a keen social media, you might be familiar with some of these words. Originally from African American Vernacular English (AAVE) â a variety of English spoken by some Black Americans â these terms have quickly become part of the internet grammar. But, how and why have these terms entered our lexicon and what does the use of AAVE in internet communication mean? This and other questions are examined by Christian Ilbury in his recent paper.
The episode of Lexis that we mention in which we interviewed Shivonne gates about MLE in East London: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5leNPWkgQTMFzZ2UHRktnC
Christianâs book recommendation can be found here:
Homegirls: Language and Cultural Practice among Latina Youth Gangs. London: Blackwell.
âIn this ground-breaking new book on the Norteña and Sureña (North/South) youth gang dynamic, cultural anthropologist and linguist Norma Mendoza-Denton looks at the daily lives of young Latinas and their innovative use of speech, bodily practices, and symbolic exchanges that signal their gang affiliations and ideologies. Her engrossing ethnographic and sociolinguistic study reveals the connection of language behavior and other symbolic practices among Latina gang girls in California,and their connections to larger social processes of nationalism,racial/ethnic consciousness, and gender identity.â

Complaints about decline, destruction, young people and migration and why they use the same language proxies as their English counterparts.

Show notes for Episode 49
Here are the show notes for Episode 49, in which Jacky and Dan talk to lawyer, community activist and author, Ife Thompson, about:
Black British English
Linguistic justice in schools, courts and the rest of the world
Anti-Blackness in discourses about language in the media
Drill lyrics and the criminalisation of Black cultural expression
Why we should give Black people their flowers for lexical innovation and their huge influence on British English
Why MLE is the wrong term to be usingâŠ
BLAM (UK): https://blamuk.org/
https://www.runnymedetrust.org/blog/is-it-that-deep-the-impact-of-policing-black-british-language-speakers-in-british-schools
âWhen Black studentsâ language is suppressed or outrightly banned in classrooms they begin to absorb messages that imply Black language is incorrect and unintelligent, this can cause them to internalise anti-Blackness. Students who internalise negative ideas about their language and culture may develop a sense of inferiority and lose confidence in their own abilities, and school in general.
âThe linguistic stigma of BBE also encourages the inappropriate and racially discriminatory discipline of Black children. In 2021, this was evidenced when a South London school with a large proportion of Black students introduced a language ban that included BBE vocabulary and semantics. Children could be reprimanded and punished for speaking in a way most natural and culturally significant to them, fuelling the practice and policies of UK schools criminalising Blackness.â
BLAM on MLE: https://blamuk.org/2022/06/22/blam-uk-condemns-the-recent-anti-black-language-racism-from-uk-white-owned-media-outlets/
âThe misidentification of Black British English as MLE minimises the cultural value and influence of Black heritage in modern-day Britain.â

âOne day we will ask ourselves how on earth the state was ever allowed to get away with using rap music as evidence to prosecute Black defendants in serious crime cases. Making music isnât evidence of crime but the prosecuting of it is. As a result, the state creates unsafe convictions, perpetuates racist stereotypes and restricts artistic expression. This has got to stop. Join Art Not Evidence to help liberate rap from the legal system.â

Accents, accents⊠and more accents!
Teacher accents and âprofessionalismâ
Social connotations and stereotypes of accents - good and bad
Why one accent isnât âbetterâ than another and why exposure to accents might be the way to overcome accentism
In our regular Lang in the News segment we talk about how formal greetings and sign-offs might be becoming a thing of the past and why thatâs the fault of⊠well, pretty much everyone that Daily Mail readers donât like.

In our regular Lang in the News segment, Lisa, Jacky and Dan talk about âcisâ and how itâs been termed a slur by Elon Musk. We discuss where âcisâ comes from and all the related issues about language policing in a changing world.
Elon Musk claims âcisâ is a slurâŠ
Elon Musk sparks outrage with threat to ban âcisgenderâ as a âslurâ on Twitter | The Independent
Elon Musk claims use of 'cis' and 'cisgender' on Twitter is 'harassment', threatens to suspend users
Researcher who coined term 'cisgender' hits back at Elon Musk
Cisgender refers to people whose gender identity aligns with the one assigned at birth. The researcher who coined the term, Dana Defosse, first used the word in a 1994 post on an early internet forum, which Oxford English Dictionary cited when it added the term to the dictionary in 2015
No, Elon Musk, cis is not a slur | The Independent
OED update December 2015:
New words notes December 2015 | Oxford English Dictionary
âAnother sign of our increasingly complex understanding of personal identity in the twenty-first century is the inclusion of a cluster of words beginning with the prefix cisâ: cis, cisgender, cisgendered, and cissexual. Derived from the Latin preposition cis, meaning âon this side ofâ, until relatively recently this prefix was chiefly visible in English in the adjectives cisalpine and cismontane (âon this side of the Alps/mountainsâ), and in the names of certain chemicals displaying a particular type of molecular symmetry. Since 1994 however, when the word cisgendered was used by an American academic appealing for help with a study of transgender issues, cisâ has taken on a new lease of life in a group of words which provide a direct equivalent to identity terms such as transgender and transsexual when referring to people who are not trans, i.e., those whose sense of their own personal identity corresponds to their birth sex.â

Rishi Sunakâs downwards convergence

Is it âhilariously inauthenticâ(Alex Andreou)?
Is it âsheer desperation by an out of touch rich boy trying to show he is in tune with the publicâ (Dave Lawrence in replies to tweet above https://twitter.com/dave43law/status/1640326877842685954?s=20 )?
Or is it just another example of politicians (of all parties) trying to sound more human and a perfectly natural way of doing language?
