I then discuss a translation of the poem by Blackhorse Mitchell and his influence on a translation that I did.

I term such signs <i>delomes</i>. With rhematization and dicentization, delomization completes the triplet that linguistic anthropologists derive from Charles Sanders Peirce's third trichotomy. The triplet serves in analyzing <i>how social actors' reflexive understandings of signs may shape social orders and cultural worlds</i>. Delomization serves to explain the Nechung monks' practice of the <i>kang so</i> (bskang gso) ritual in exile at Dharamsala, a practice integral to the ritual infrastructure underlying the institution of the Dalai Lamas. The monks routinely declare their inability to perform the ritual's requisite meditations. Yet their practice continues unimpeded. Given that the monks deem such meditation opaque to observers, I argue that the perceptible ritual performance is <i>simply accepted as a symbol—a delome</i>—of the requisite, imperceptible meditations. Delomization in the Nechung <i>kang so</i> then helps perpetuate the social role of the Nechung monk, independent of ritual adeptness. Ultimately, this delomization is imbricated in processes that yield an exilic imagining of a Tibetan community, as unified by a collective karma that is protected by the god Nechung and rhematized, dicentized, and delomized in the Dalai Lama's person.</p>","PeriodicalId":47070,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Linguistic Anthropology","volume":"36 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jola.70054","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148174143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on ethnographic fieldwork in insect laboratories, interviews with entomologists and geneticists, and an analysis of scientific and clinical commentaries, I show how gene names coined as jocular mnemonics by drosophilists become the source of moralizing metapragmatic discourse when conserved genes circulate in the patient-facing context of genetic testing. I identify three semiotic functions of these multispecies gene names: a referential function that stabilizes genetic homology across clades; a descriptive function that encodes the phenotypic consequences of prototypical mutations; and a performative function through which naming enacts in-group membership. This third function renders gene names sensitive to audience and context, causing them to become taboos when they enter the trading zone of translational medicine. I show how clinicians, professional organizations, and journal editors respond by creating “avoidance nomenclatures” and imposing a sort of diglossic distribution of naming practices to be used at both bench- and bedside. I argue that extrascientific norms of politeness can motivate linguistic standardization of scientific dialects just as compellingly as do epistemic demands for clarity and universality.</p>","PeriodicalId":47070,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Linguistic Anthropology","volume":"36 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2026-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jola.70058","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148166918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The public's misrecognition of this new subjectivity prompted the production of a new shibboleth, “primera gobernadora constitucional” (first [feminine] governor, constitutionally recognized), making this naming ritual felicitous.
