Kids Talking?

In Victoria? Know a 10-12 year old who likes to talk? UVic linguists are looking for participants for a
language study. This age group is really important when it comes to shaping language in a community, and research like this can tell us more about the role 10-12 year olds play in this. We want to interview locally born and raised pre-teens in friendship pairs to get a sense of where local speech is going. Please call us or email us (and not your PAC) for more information if you think your child would like to participate. #youthlanguage #kidstalk #uvic

Thanks very much!
