I enjoyed attending the #SSML2 @helsinkiuni & giving a talk on International Sign Lg as a part of small-scale & global-scale multilingualism w/ @RoniceQ. Looking forward to further exchange. @FriederikeLupke @Anmapuup @iDDW & their team, thank you! @Deaf_Studies @HumboldtUni

Ibrahima Cissé: “I have nothing against French…. I am against any language that prevents people from moving forward”. WORD. #ssml2
A fitting final keynote for #ssml2 by Ibrahima Cissé, covering language acquisition/socialisation in Mali, a description of current education systems, the historical and cultural context of language ecologies and power. A striking and frank keynote with *solutions*! (1/3)
"Just as the beauty of a carpet has to do with the variety of it colors, the diversity of peoples, cultures, and civilizations makes the beauty and richness of the world." - Amadou Hampâté Bâ #ssml2
Another excellent session at #ssml2 , session one for the final day! @eleanor_ridge - @giustinaselvelli - @johnbasil - what has struck me is how some forms of small-scale multilingual practices, attitudes seem to persist despite colonisation, 20thC nationalism, modernisation 💭
@HeriotWattBSL presence at the #SSML2 conference: keynote from @AnneliesKusters & presentation from @rejadam. Great to see a whole day in the programme dedicated to discussing research on small scale sign language multilingualism
Was brilliant presentation and discussion about a definition of a sign language, gesture and international signing on different levels. And attitudes from others who don’t live in a same minority status. #ssml2
Always proud to see fellow deaf academics challenging each other intellectually at mainstream conferences. Here @NickPalfreyman acting as discussant for @AnneliesKusters keynote on small-scale sign multilingualism #SSML2

Kanto: in a survey looking at linguistic environment of kids in Finland (DoD, Koda, HoD) 61% of deaf parent & 52% of hearing parents have moderate skills in 3 or more languages (!) Kids are exposed mostly to one #signlanguage and 2 spoken lgs. #ssml2
Probably one of the most impactful keynote + discussant session I’ve had the privilege to access. Thank you @AnneliesKusters and @NickPalfreyman for your truly insightful thoughts and cutting commentary touching upon sign languages and deaf research #ssml2
Phenomenal keynote by @AnneliesKusters calling for more ethnolinguistic research to better understand how signers (deaf and hearing) use multilingual resources in real settings. Important lessons for us Psycholinguists who tend to use native monolinguals as baseline #ssml2

Off to a great start today with #ssml2! Foundational, biographical, and inspiring points from @RuthJSinger and Pierpaolo Di Carlo.
Excited to be watching @RuthJSinger's plenary on multilingualism at Warruwi @ the 2nd Small-Scale Multilingualism Conference #ssml2 @helsinkiuni! Some of us paying more attention than others

I've been watching the pre-recorded videos for the #ssml2 tomorrow, and learning about small-scale multilingualism in Africa, Eurasia, and seeing presentations in International Sign? I am quaking with excitement for the day!! https://t.co/4nDzMe2pJn
Especially excited for Ibrahima Cissé’s keynote, “Brushing the Colorful Malian Carpet: Multilingualism to Unite and Rebuild a Nation at War.” Seemingly ties together my interests perfectly. #ssml2
Also intrigued by Samantha Goodchild’s abstract on Languag-e | -ing is mono- | multi-lingual about overlapping scales and chronotypes in rural Casamance, Sénégal. #ssml2
Listened to a wonderful abstract by @mksgallego on Language Dominance in Babuyan Claro, Philippines as part of #ssml2. Excited for the rest of the virtual conference!
Really looking forward to this! The programme for #SSML2 includes @AnneliesKusters' keynote (discussant @NickPalfreyman) and 12 presentations on sign multilingualism! Hope to see you there! #smallscalemultilingualism
What an interesting conference in August!! 😍 Keynote by @AnneliesKusters, you shall not miss that! 2 weeks left for call-for-papers 💪 https://t.co/PKWKM8pTyM #ssml2 #multilingualism #signlanguages
