Exploring Varieties of English in the Foreign Language Classroom

Speaker: Kathleen Yamane, Eichi (Sapientia) University

Description:
Following a general discussion of variation in language, participants will work through group activities to identify the linguistic features of Southern American dialect, Black English vernacular and other varieties of English from short video clips and recordings.

Y'all come have fun!
