Pascal Wagner gehört zu den kompetentesten und neugierigsten JournalistInnen, die sich mit der deutschen Spielebranche näher beschäftigen. Zuletzt begleitete er als Redakteur beim Fachmagazin GamesMarkt das Drama um die schnell geleerten Fördertöpfe, interviewte PoltikerInnen, arbeitete sich durch Geschäftsbilanzen der Studios und bemühte sich immer wieder darum, komplizierte Zusammenhänge einfach verständlich wiederzugeben. Nun aber, kurz vor dieser Aufnahme hier, verlor Pascal Wagner seinen Job bei Gamesmarkt und muss sich nun mit Anbruch des neuen Jahres beruflich neu orientieren. Mögliche Richtungen gibt es für ihn viele: wieder Journalismus, oder doch zurück zu seinen wissenschaftlichen Wurzeln als Linguist und Sprachforscher. Im Gespräch mit Dom Schott atmet Pascal Wagner einmal tief durch, erzählt von seiner Arbeit als Redakteur, erinnert sich an seine wissenschaftliche Vergangenheit und diskutiert mit seinem Gastgeber den Zustand des deutschsprachigen Branchenjournalismus.

Linguist, writer, and professor Anne Curzan joins co-hosts V.V. Ganeshananthan and Whitney Terrell to discuss how language is constantly changing—and how that's okay. Curzan talks about how, in her work as an English language historian, she's learned that people have always been critical of usage changes; Ben Franklin, for instance, didn't care for colonize as a verb. But, Curzan explains, as much as “grammandos” bemoan the evolution of language, it can't be stopped—singular “they,” “funnest,” and “very unique” are here to stay. Curzan reads from her book, Says Who? A Kinder, Funner Usage Guide for Everyone Who Cares About Language.

Have you ever been typing out a word and all of the sudden it becomes completely foreign? Like it's gone... weird. Wordnesia is very real. That moment when words, yes including our own names, go from everyday acceptable to downright bizarre happens to most of us.  So should we be worried? Or, as our guest says, should we just enjoy language? THE END BITS Subscribe to Mamamia Check out The Quicky Instagram here Liked this episode? Listen to these: Skibidy Rizz Ohio?

In this episode, I am joined by the fantastic Seva, an enthusiastic linguist with vast knowledge and expertise around indigenous languages. He is a language professor who grew up in a bilingual environment in the Soviet Union. He studied anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley and now teaches academic Spanish and Italian in a community college in Seattle. He is an academic who poses questions regarding the connection between language and identity, a concept that is challenged and questioned in both Ukraine and Ireland. This comparison makes for a fascinating conversation about the parallels that exist between the Irish language and the Ukrainian language. This thought-provoking, informative conversation addresses the war in Ukraine and the political unrest that is still happening back home for Vsevolod. He speaks concisely about the ongoing war and shines a light on the experiences of the colonised people. An episode not to be missed with this fountain of knowledge!

In 2012, the University of Miami philosopher Colin McGinn was accused of sexual harassment by a graduate student. When the matter became public, Pinker wrote in an open letter that McGinn was a “brilliant and distinguished scholar” and that if the University of Miami pursued disciplinary action against McGinn for “exchanging sexual banter with a graduate student,” it would “put a chill on communication between faculty and graduate students and on the openness and informality on which scholarship depends.” In our conversation, Pinker often brings up “The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature,” which, even two decades after its release, illustrates core aspects of his thinking today. The book argues that our individual behaviors — our intelligence, our sociability, our tendencies toward violence — are rooted in our genes, not just the environment in which we are raised. “.. in 2006 Pinker published a favorable review of a scientific paper which argued that Ashkenazi Jews may have evolved to have higher IQs than other racial and ethnic groups.” One of the first academics to be canceled, Pinker says, was E. O. Wilson. Wilson was a biologist and professor of evolutionary biology at Harvard. Today, he is known for two things: his award-winning work on biodiversity and his public branding as a racist. In 1975, Wilson published a book called “Sociobiology: The New Synthesis,” which argues that behaviors result from genes — “very much in the strain of work that I wrote about on human nature,” Pinker says — and stepped into a debate about scientific racism.

A kinder, funner usage guide to the ever-changing English language and a useful tool for both the grammar stickler and the more colloquial user of English, from linguist and veteran professor Anne CurzanOur use of language naturally evolves and is a living, breathing thing that reflects who we are. Says Who? offers clear, nuanced guidance that goes beyond “right” and “wrong” to empower us to make informed language choices. Never snooty or scoldy (yes, that's a “real” word!), this book explains where the grammar rules we learned in school actually come from and reveals the forces that drive dictionary editors to label certain words as slang or unacceptable.Linguist and veteran English professor Anne Curzan equips readers with the tools they need to adeptly manage (a split infinitive?! You betcha!) formal and informal writing and speaking. After all, we don't want to be caught wearing our linguistic pajamas to a job interview any more than we want to show up for a backyard barbecue in a verbal tux, asking, “To whom shall I pass the ketchup?” Curzan helps us use our new knowledge about the developing nature of language and grammar rules to become caretakers of language rather than gatekeepers of it. Applying entertaining examples from literature, newspapers, television, and more, Curzan welcomes usage novices and encourages the language police to lower their pens, showing us how we can care about language precision, clarity, and inclusion all at the same time.With lively humor and humanity, Says Who? is a pragmatic and accessible key that reveals how our choices about language usage can be a powerful force for equity and personal expression. For proud grammar sticklers and self-conscious writers alike, Curzan makes nerding out about language fun.Anne Curzan is the Geneva Smitherman Collegiate Professor of English Language and Literature, Linguistics, and Education and an Arthur F. Thurnau Professor at the University of Michigan, where she also currently serves as the dean of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts.Buy the book from Wellington Square Bookshop - ​https://www.wellingtonsquarebooks.com/book/9780593444092

Part 1 of 2 Dr. Will Ryan and Dr. Matt interview Dr. Philip Payne. In this episode we discuss the concept of gender roles, the meaning of "head" and "headship", and the text critical issues with 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 and how it relates to inerrancy and gender equality. Dr. Philip Payne is the founder and president of Linguist's Software, and is a specialist in New Testament Studies. He is well known for his studies on New Testament Textual Criticism, the Parables of Jesus, and Man and Woman in the Teachings of Paul.

That's right, it's that time again for another incredible paranormal interview and yet again it's a good one. For this episode I am joined by Paul Zolman, love language linguist. We had an amazing discussion about love languages and how Paul tries to help the world interpret and use these languages. We cover topics ranging from ghost sightings, Massachusetts, the 5 types of love, the negative society we live in, school shootings, and much much more. Come check it out and enjoy.   Bio: Paul Zolman is the international bestselling author of the Role of Love, but the true author of love is God. In His wisdom, He placed us in a variety of circumstances that require us to find our way back to His pure love. So, what qualifies me to speak about love? My childhood experience of the opposite of love. From that austere beginning, and the distaste it formed inside me, I searched for and eventually created a method that transformed my life from anger to loving everyone. Growing up in a family of abuse, physical touch became my preferred love style, only because of the regularity. I could almost count on it. It was consistent. I came to think that was the way to express love. But deep inside, I knew that was a twisted belief. I wanted a better life for myself, which is why I created a paradigm shift that works. In this book, you'll find what helped me move from a childhood boot camp of abuse to being a person who loves everyone and can find good about anyone in any circumstance. This is truly the role of love. I hope you join me.   Uncensored, Untamed & Unapologetic U^3 Podcast Collective: https://www.facebook.com/groups/545827736965770/?ref=share Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@juggalobastardpodcasts?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8xJ2KnRBKlYvyo8CMR7jMg

Tensions have been ramping up at universities across the country as students continue to protest the war in Gaza. Reports of antisemitism, islamophobia, and harassment have led to concerns that some students have crossed a line into hateful and threatening speech that requires intervention. Others contend that efforts to clamp down on protests in the name of campus safety suppresses free speech. Within that context, we revisit this debate on adjacent issues from a few years back to see what lessons that can be applied to the current situation: Is Free Speech Threatened on Campus?  Arguing Yes: John McWhorter, Linguist and Professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University; Wendy Kaminer, Writer and Lawyer    Arguing No: Shaun Harper, Founder and Executive Director of the USC Race and Equity Center; Jason Stanley, Professor of Philosophy at Yale University  Emmy award-winning journalist John Donvan moderates  Learn more about your ad choices.

It's hard, but you have to do it.” “We have to be grateful for every single day that we're spending on this planet. Because we take everything for granted... We can buy everything, we can have everything, we can get everything. But when we don't have our health, that doesn't really mean anything anymore.” “You have to do your research when it comes to business partners, because they play a really important part in your life and business, and it can affect you in a bad and a good way.” “Success for me means happiness. And I think just being grateful, being thankful, and being happy in life, that's success.” “If you work hard, and if you put yourself out there, and you're focusing on your job, you will get those results.” “Just keep going, that's my go-to. Always just keep going. And don't give up.

Spanish speakers in the United States, among linguists and non-linguists, have been denigrated for the way they speak, says UC Berkeley sociolinguist Justin Davidson. It's part of the country's long history of scrutiny of non-monolingual English speakers, he says, dating back to the early 20th century."It's groups in power, its discourses and collective communities, that sort of socially determine what kinds of words and what kinds of language are acceptable and unacceptable," says Davidson, an associate professor in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese.But the U.S. is a Spanish-speaking country, he says, and it's time for us as a nation to embrace U.S. Spanish as a legitimate language variety.This is the first episode of a three-part series with Davidson about language in the U.S. In the next episode, we'll discuss language bias — how we all have it, where it comes from and the devastating consequences it can have.Listen to the episode and read the transcript on Berkeley News (news.berkeley.edu).Photo by Brittany Hosea-Small.Music by Blue Dot Sessions.
