Wow!
Pff, no, I can never do it, so amazed observer camp I am.
Thank goodness. I was worried no one would appreciate Punxsutawney Phil's full title.Lambuzhao wrote: ↑05 Feb 2018 06:53Let's hear it for Marmotine Sciamancy!Dormouse559 wrote: ↑02 Feb 2018 17:34All hail the Great Rodent Oracle of Umbral News Delineating Hiems' Oncoming Goodbye!

Is it? I haven't tried this brand of divine invocation.
Well, I'll take Marmite spread over spread marmote any day of the week. Except Thursdays. That's Deep Fried Marmote Day, and no one, I say, I say, no one misses Deep Fried Marmote Day!
Perhaps even hyásawârctas?

Thanks, but I don't want to make you do my work for me. I'm really just looking for people's personal experiences being a linguistics major or a linguist. I know there are lots of different areas of study, though. I'm particularly interested in computational linguistics, research (like historical linguistics), and field work (documenting endangered languages).Frislander wrote: ↑10 Feb 2018 11:50Do you mean in terms of work or are you asking how to change subject?
If you're asking about the kinds of subject you'll do, it really varies depending on the uni. For example Cambridge is quite strongly theory-heavy (and Generativist theory at that), while other universities are more concerned with the empirical/practical sides like psycholinguistics and phonetics. However you should definitely get a broad education in linguistics regardless of where you are, but if you want you could tell me where you're at and I'll have a look on their website and try and work it out for you.
