Lim and Gregory R. Guy 1 Introduction The linguistic unity of speech communities lies in shared linguistic practices and evaluations. Where variable processes are concerned, this linguistic unity extends to shared constraint effects. Guy (1980) demonstrates that Philadelphians show a common effect of the following pause constraint on /t,d/ deletion, treating it as a conservative environment which disfavors dele tion. On the other hand, New Yorkers exhibit an opposite effect of the same constraint, such that it favors deletion. Since the effects are distinct in the two communities, they cannot be attributed to universal factors. But since they are consistent within each community, they reflect shared linguistic practices, which can be characterized as shared grammars. -
Lexical Frequency and Syntactic Variation: a Test of a Linguistic Hypothesis

Lexical Frequency and Syntactic Variation: A Test of a Linguistic Hypothesis Abstract The role of lexical frequency in language variation and change has received considerable attention in recent years. Recently Erker and Guy (2012) extended the analysis of frequency effects to morphosyntactic variation. Based on data from 12 Dominican and Mexican speakers from Otheguy and Zentella’s (2012) New York City Spanish corpus, they examined the role of frequency in variation between null and overt subject personal pronouns (SPP). Their results suggest that frequency either activates or amplifies the effects of other constraints such as co-reference. This paper attempts to replicate Erker and Guy’s study with a data set of Mexican immigrant and Mexican American Spanish. Analysis of more than 8,600 tokens shows that frequency has only a small effect on SPP use. -

Linguistic Prejudice & Privilege
Gregory R. Guy March 2017 Linguistic Prejudice, Linguistic Privilege Public Forum Wednesday, March 29, 2017 6:30-8:00pm!19 W. 4th St, Room 101 From the sounds of speech to the construction of sentences to nuances in meaning, a hallmark of human language is its diversity. While linguists believe that this diversity has much to teach us about human cognition, creativity, and identity, it has also been long observed that differences in language use among social groups have led to discrimination against speakers who diverge from the dominant group. Linguistic prejudice has been documented against many different (but often intersecting) groups, including racial or ethnic groups, socioeconomic classes, speakers of regional dialects, non-native speakers, and on the basis of gender. Indeed, linguistic prejudice seems to remain socially acceptable today even when other types of overt discrimination are otherwise shunned. This forum brings together four scholars from the Department of Linguistics at NYU whose research addresses these issues. • Laurel MacKenzie: The Myth of Standard English • Lisa Davidson: Talking While Female: The Science & Censure of Women’s Voices • Gregory Guy: Life and Language at the Back of the Classroom: Linguistic Minorities !in Educational Settings • Renée Blake: Don't CALL me what I AM!: On being BLACK and ARTICULATE !

Henry School Philadelphia Life and Language at the Back of the Classroom: Linguistic Minorities in Educational Settings A lot of media and social attention has been paid over the years to the observation that children of minority ethnic backgrounds, especially Black and Latino children, on average tend to underperform in American schools. -
Questioning Theoretical Primitives in Linguistic Inquiry
studies in functional and structural linguistics 76 Questioning Theoretical Primitives in Linguistic Inquiry edited by Naomi L. Shin Daniel Erker John Benjamins Publishing Company Questioning Theoretical Primitives in Linguistic Inquiry Studies in Functional and Structural Linguistics (SFSL) issn 1385-7916 Taking the broadest and most general definitions of the terms functional and structural, this series aims to present linguistic and interdisciplinary research that relates language structure – at any level of analysis from phonology to discourse – to broader functional considerations, whether cognitive, communicative, pragmatic or sociocultural. Preference will be given to studies that focus on data from actual discourse, whether speech, writing or other nonvocal medium. The series was formerly known as Linguistic & Literary Studies in Eastern Europe (LLSEE).

Bibliography on Variation and Gradience in Phonology
BIBLIOGRAPHY OF VARIATION AND GRADIENCE IN PHONOLOGY Arto Anttila Warning: This bibliography is intended for my course ‘Variation in Optimality Theory’ to be taught at the Phonology Fest, Indiana University, June 19-22, 2006. It is heavily biased towards generative phonology, in particular Optimality Theory. I have not tried to systematically cover the vast phonetic, psycholinguistic, and sociolinguistic literature on variation and gradience. I have included occasional references to variation in syntax and semantics, learnability, and phonological variation in specific languages, in particular English and Finnish. Corrections and additions are welcome.

LING-GA 3510 Seminar in Sociolinguistics: Priming and Frequency Effects on Variation Fall 2017
LING-GA 3510 Seminar in Sociolinguistics: Priming and frequency effects on variation Fall 2017 Lecture time Wed. 2pm–4:45pm Location Socio lab (10 Washington Pl. #308) Instructors Dr. Gregory Guy Dr. Laurel MacKenzie Contact [email protected] [email protected] Office 10 Washington Pl. #211 10 Washington Pl. #305 Office hour T 4-5:30 By appointment Course description In this seminar, we’ll ask and try to answer the following questions: What sorts of priming/persistence effects do we find in linguistic variation, and why? (How) can the literature on sociolinguistic priming/persistence and psycholinguistic priming be reconciled? What is the role of word frequency in driving linguistic change and shaping linguistic variation, and to what mechanism(s) can this be attributed? What is the role of lexical exceptionality in language variation and change, and (how) does this connect to frequency effects? Throughout the course, we’ll make connections to exemplar models of mental representation, and we’ll also discuss methodological issues in operationalizing priming and frequency in the study of language variation and change. Readings Readings that are not readily available on Google Scholar will be posted on NYU Classes. Requirements ● Presentations. This is a seminar class, in which we will learn from each other through discussion of the papers we read and the issues they raise. Participants (both enrolled students and auditors) are required to lead one or two class meetings and present on the assigned paper(s). ● Participation. All participants are expected to do the assigned reading and to participate in the discussion of the material in class. -

After All, How Coherent Is the Speech in the Linguistic Communities?
REVISTA DA ABRALIN After all, how coherent is the speech in the linguistic communities? Based on the works of Labov (2006), Becker (2016), Oushiro (2015, 2019), Mendes (2016; 2019), and Eckert (2008), Gregory Guy promotes in his speech a discussion about dialectal coherence in speech communities. First, Guy seeks to highlight how individual linguistic experience is used to build and perform social identities. Second, he takes as a premise the so- cial and individual heterogeneity from the works of Labov and Becker in order to discuss the notion of dialectal cohesion through the investiga- tions of Guy, Mendes, and Oushiro. Thus, founded on empirical data anal- ysis, the lecturer predicts that globalization increases the contact be- tween languages and the simplification of linguistic complexities provok- ing a decrease in linguistic coherence. Fundamentado nos trabalhos de Labov (2006), Becker (2016), Oushiro (2015, 2019), Mendes (2016; 2019) e Eckert (2008), Gregory Guy promove em sua fala uma discussão acerca da coerência dialetal nas comunidades de fala. Em primeiro lugar, Guy procura evidenciar como a experiência lin- guística individual é usada para construir e performar identidades sociais. Em segundo, partindo dos trabalhos de Labov e de Becker, o conferencista toma como premissa a heterogeneidade social e individual da língua, para, por meio das pesquisas de Guy, de Mendes e de Oushiro, discutir a noção de coerência dialetal. Dessa forma, calcado em análises de dados empíri- cos, o palestrante prevê uma diminuição da coerência impulsionada pelo REVISTA DA ABRALIN contato entre línguas e pela simplificação das complexidades linguísticas promovidos pela globalização. Coherence. Speech community.
