Our comments on The Language and Life Project Instagram and TikTok pages are full of bountiful conversation! Followers from all over the world are discovering the beauty in language variation and are engaging with their own language communities, as well as those they may have never discovered otherwise.
With this much buzz, our followers are demonstrating a curiosity for language and asking compelling questions that deserve answers.
Hear Dr. Walt Wolfram, Distinguished Professor of Sociolinguistics and the Director of the Language and Life Project, answer questions from commenters on social media. Check out our first “Dr. Walt Wolfram Answers” here, as he responds to a comment about Gullah language and its development.
Wonderful work
