Greetings, fellow pizza spooks! I have found my people.
#introductions I have an MA in linguistics; I did my thesis on the politeness effects of different kinds of speech acts. I am looking for work *as* a linguist and *really* don't want to get rusty in the process.
My main account is @DialMforMara, where I share my knitting and drawings & talk about books.
In birdland I have the same handle, and I co-lead linguistics chats semiregularly at #lingchat.
@Crime Cool. In what language? (either the language you're writing in or the one you're writing about)
@DialMforMara mostly japanese and thai, but in English lol ... also planning to write about javanese & korean if i have enough time/energy
@DialMforMara @DialMforMara ohhhh politeness! I'm just writing a book on honorification now
