The interview starts with a definition of what sociolinguistics is, namely, a social theory of language, and then continues to trace the development of Indian sociolinguistics. Satyanath also shares insights into the ideas behind the conference <i>New Ways of Analyzing Variation Asia-Pacific</i> and the associated journal <i>Asia-Pacific Language Variation</i>. From her and her students’ work on a range of Indian languages, it becomes clear that certain frameworks developed in Western sociolinguistics, such as diglossia, or what she also calls a hierarchical model of bilingualism, do not work to accurately account for the multicultural fabric of Indian and Guyanese societies.

The interview focuses on sociolinguistics and social justice, with particular focus on the potential for linguistic expertise in legal contexts. He addresses the concept of the creole continuum, and the concept of the conflict theory of social class, advocating for the importance of both. The interview also touches on Rickford's stroke and his thoughts on disability and sociolinguistics. Rickford makes a strong case for a positive future for the field of sociolinguistics and its changing position relative to linguistics, more generally. Through personal stories both in and out of academia, Rickford's career is a shining example of how the intertwining of the personal and the political is central to a life in sociolinguistics.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51486,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sociolinguistics","volume":"29 4","pages":"294-301"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-08-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145050921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research demonstrates how students creatively and critically mobilize their semiotic repertoire to negotiate precarious identities and subtly resist the dominant narrative within the meritocratic system in Chinese higher education. Furthermore, the study reveals how transpositioning through translingual practices in online communities empowers struggling university students, allowing a dialogic space for humor, resilience, reflection, and criticism that challenges traditional power structures and envisions a more inclusive society.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":51486,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sociolinguistics","volume":"29 4","pages":"225-236"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145051254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on ethnographic and linguistic landscape data, the study specifically examines how the multilingual signs that have undergone invisibilization or changes in their layouts are accompanied by marginalized senses and excluded voices—linguistic hauntings—in the multilingual Mongolian borderlands. In this study, linguistic hauntings are animated by Mongolian linguistic anxiety and conditioned by the Chinese state's intensified language oppression in transitioning from a multinational and multilingual state to a unified Chinese nation with one singular language.

The results, which are based on a thematic analysis, show how participants are being delegitimized by family members from dominant French-speaking contexts due to some of their linguistic practices that diverge from standard forms. They also indicate that participants have found ways to gain linguistic security by acquiring knowledge, participating in their communities, and accepting different linguistic practices that characterize their variety of French.

In this article, I focus on additional interactional phenomena that are under-studied but systematic. I present real-time data to illustrate variable control of speech features in style-shifting. These cues give listeners a sense of the default style of a speaker and their range of divergence from it, forming an ‘anchor’ from which to interpret the intended meanings of a specific person's style shifts. Rather than seeing convergence as a simple rapport-building move, I propose a system of non-linear inferential schemas, whereby the payoff of a style shift diminishes when it exceeds a certain threshold, due more to considerations of sincerity and credibility than social group indexicalities. These Bayesian inferences can be modelled within recent game-theoretic frameworks, allowing us to account for social but also cognitive payoffs and costs as part of how speakers and listeners interpret each other's speech styles in real time.</p>","PeriodicalId":51486,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sociolinguistics","volume":"29 3","pages":"210-222"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josl.12701","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144244883","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"文学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
