Our Head of Youth Language was recently invited to give two lectures at one of the world's oldest universities.
Rob was invited by the SPERTUS research team (studying spoken English) to give a talk to staff and PhD students on his work researching language and identity, and then a second talk to students on his urban youth language project. There is some fascinating work being done both in the department and in SPERTUS, with possibilities for collaborative work in the future.
