Tortoise express
Lately, I’ve quite often found that email arrives in my inbox after spending sometimes up to almost 24 hours dawdling around on the BU mail servers. Although it is true that I’m also drowning in email and don’t always respond immediately, it is not impossible that I simply haven’t received your email yet. Kind of …
See you at 12:30
I seem to have confused a couple of people with my previous post. Class will be tomorrow at the usual time. The usual time, however, is an hour more distant from last week’s class than it is most weeks, due to the conclusion of Daylight Saving Time. :p
Class postponed
Reminder: The time between last Tuesday’s class and this coming Tuesday’s class will be 10050 minutes, rather than the usual 9990. I wish you all the best in coping with the delay during this difficult time.
BUCLD focus
I promised this a while ago, but here are a few selected talks from this weekend’s BUCLD that might contain some recognizable terminology. This list is not exhaustive, though.

Nov 3: No class
As announced in class: There will be no class on Thursday November 3. I am involved in the Society for Language Development Symposium that is being held that day and so I need to be there, and it is happening at the same time that the class is. So, if you don’t attend the SLD …

HW2 my judgments on the stress placements
Homework #2 asks you to look at two sets of sentences, to try to predict where the pitch accents fall. Here are where it seems to me that they fall, if that is helpful. (1) a. Both Sid and his accomplices should have been named in this morning’s court session. b. But the deFENdant only …

Office hours Wed 9/21: 12-1pm
Due to a faculty meeting on Wednesday 9/21, I will need to have my office hours from 12-1pm instead of their usual 4-5pm time. I anticipate that this may happen a couple more times during the semester as well, when CAS faculty meetings arise. I will try to announce these changes in advance here.
