What do you currently do for a living?

I've in my second year of teaching Human Services, at a local community college. It was a lot more fun until the pandemic happened. Now the campus has been dead, and I all I do now is sit in my office on the computer most of the day...oh well, right? I still have a job so I won't complain.

@SW-User Which subject? What is your research question?

@SomeMichGuy Linguistics. My research topic is related to language change, specifically whether the loss of inflection is universal and/or unidirectional. I'm exploring a number of contemporary languages and how they are changing (including English) as well as looking at historical changes.

@SW-User Ok, now THAT is interesting.

Hmmm...are you aware of [i]Historical Outlines of English Sounds and Inflections[/i] by Samuel Moore (of Univ. of Mich.), rev'd by Albert H. Marckwardt (of Princeton)...?
