So, according to to Myth #12 Yoda has been wrong this whole time? #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

AAVE isn't broken English. It is a dialect with deep cultural roots.

As said in myth 13 the speech of a socially subordinate group will always be interpreted as inadequate by comparison. This myth proves to be rooted in "objective fact". #fa25e211o2

Here is another interesting article on the Critical period for learing language. https://t.co/s50m9v96ri. #fa25e211o2

This article is a helpful introduction to the stages of language acquisition https://t.co/PuSDVayJUG. #fa25e211o2

Bilingualism enhances cognition, culture, and global perspective. #fa25e211o2

🍼➡️🗣️ From babbling babies to bilingual adults, language acquisition is proof our brains are wired for connection.#fa25e211o2

The pandemic taught kids how to mute Zoom and master Google Docs—but paragraph structure? Left the chat. #fa25e211o2

Our reading on myth 8 sparked my interest in narrowing down my research topic. #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

While working on my research topic, I began to wonder—although there hasn't been a definitive "golden age" of literacy, there have been significant improvements in literacy rates over time. However, I'm curious whether those improvements have started to decline.#fa25e211o2

James Milroy's Myth 8 Children can't speak or write properly anymore isn't a linguistic fact it's prescriptivism #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

Myth # 8 is cyclical. The staggering static of 1850 shows an improvement in literacy as a whole. The myth is draped in covert forms of social discrimination. #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

@willdelete98825 I thought that was a very interesting job title as well.

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

In pragmatics we decode what's left unsaid every day. #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

Semantics is why the word "fire" can mean: a blaze you put out, a person you need to let go, or something really good. #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

I do not think that English spelling is Kattastroffik. I think it makes a point to be consistent. #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

@aramirez_life I wonder if this is how accents develop? #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

I am going to have to respectfully disagree with myth 5😅. I am a woman and I work with mostly women. Women talk a lot 😮‍💨 #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

@kyroosgf I couldn't agree more. Language must go through some type of metamorphosis to be able to be understood. There has to be a sort of evolution of language to be able to reach the masses. #fa25e211o2

[Allie @AllieFALL25]

In language myth#3 "X" (formally known as twitter) is what I believe a purist would call junk journalism. #fa25e211o2
