A nice chart to end the week. This is the vowel space of Greater Manchester based on the speech of 300+ speakers who grew up in one of the ten boroughs. Over 96,000 vowel measurements here. Great work by @91caitlin!
We've been doing some work on the accent variation in both our Accent Van and Submit Your Voice recordings. Here's a little sneak peak at the Manchester vowel space... #phonetics #sociolinguistics #sociophonetics

at the very core of the so-called word gap is a raciolinguistic ideology which frames the language practices of marginalised communities as lacking. it is a victim blaming, deficit-based concept which simply diverts attention away from structural and systemic inequalities.

Something I wrote for @ConversationUK. A reaction to Rishi Sunak saying his Mother was obsessed with getting her kids to speak 'properly' and 'without accents'. 'Don’t blame parents for wanting their children to speak differently – blame society'. theconversation.com/dont-bla…
