Social Bias and Surprisal Response in Multilingual Contexts: How Foreign-Appearing Speakers in Japan Are Perceived
https://t.co/i8mRh7ViBo
@jessicastokyo Living inner city Kyoto, my fiance has a car, so commuting by car is normally his default. I don't have a car, so I primarily commute by train or bicycle unless I'm with my fiance, in which case we use the car. But also, he's a carpenter, so he can't use trains for work.
@hizaga@jacktla Yeah, I believe "sensei" is used for professors in academic settings or medical doctors also. "hakushi" is the academic "doctor," but I don't think I've ever heard it as a title outside of like the Mario franchise. In academia, "doctor" is really only a formal title really.
I am excited to share that my historiographical essay, "Japanese Migrants to the Philippines Under American Rule," has been published in Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Migration Studies! DM or email me if you want a PDF.
So many interesting pieces! https://t.co/9IaDbus1gu
@hizaga I mean, it looks like it could be good, but the original was literally my childhood. It's hard to imagine no Michael Landon. They better do Nellie well though, I agree. She's iconic.
@RaraSensei Yeah my general rule for myself is if they don't give me exact size measurements, I just click off and don't even try to look into buying the piece. And even if they do provide actual measurements, you still have to check the reviews because you never know how accurate it is.
Scientists at Oxford University have demonstrated, for the first time, that a key emotional centre deep in the human brain directly influences how we interpret ambiguous social cues.
