@richjallen Yes. My interest is mainly in second language learning & WM. Actually I was Paula’s student and you helped me out a few years ago with the working memory design😀 I just finished my studies at Leeds and looking for jobs so not sure if still based here.

[Dr Handan Lu @handan_lv]

@richjallen This is something that I have used in my research. Not sure if this will help.

[Dr Handan Lu @handan_lv]

@richjallen Would you make the comparison element-wise or just search for any n-gram? e.g. 21973895 vs 21978953. If do element-wise, the result will be only (2197). However, for n-gram, the result will be (2197 and 895).

@ELopezTESOL Hi, Elaine. I was one of your students when you taught in Leeds. I remembered how lovely and humorous you are. I understand how it felt as I just lost my baby girl a few months ago. I came across a book called OPTION B written by Sheryl Sanderberg. Hope it sends you strength💪
