If you are doing, or thinking of starting, a project about language that will (also) teach 'regular folks' about language, you should apply for this grant! Apart from some money, it will also give you publicity and a wider network.

That's a wrap for #LingComm25! And it was the biggest LingComm ever. We'll be back next time for more panels, talks, how-tos, posters, and great chats with all the linguistic communicators. Thanks to everyone who attended and made this conference such a success.

Plenary: @emilymbender.bsky.social on text extruders: "Why are we automating that? How does it fit into the context we're trying to use it…? Who gets hurt if it goes poorly, if it puts errors? Who gets hurt if it works as intended, and who's benefiting from that being automated? #LingComm25

What does it mean to talk like a person, and not like a journal? @mikemena.bsky.social: "It's more than switching vocabulary words. It's relating to a person on a different level." Try using YOU. Just addressing the reader gives it a whole different vibe. #LingComm25

Doing a Linguistics Day for high schoolers? Take a tip on terms from Frances Blanchette. Morphology? ❌ Wordmaxxing ✅ #LingComm25

@malvinanissim.bsky.social heads up an Ethics in AI course at the University of Groningen, where one final project is to give a presentation to high school students. The uni students report that having to explain concepts to younger people forces them to consider multiple perspectives. #LingComm25

"You take a complicated subject that everyone THINKS they understand and explain it in a way that people REALLY understand." @grantbarrett.com on a huge value of linguistics and lingcomm training #LingComm25

@Laura Wagner and Cecile McKee are showing how to share linguistics with respect. Right now they're role-playing teaching IPA with nametags, and linguistic concepts with dinosaurs! 🤯 #LingComm25

Final thoughts on book publishing: Evangelia Adamou: "I feel personally that there is a lot of pressure to build your own audience. What I liked about @MITPress was they built the audience for me." #LingComm25

Author Hedde Zeijlstra on publishing: "The hardest thing about writing was that there was a linguist sitting on my shoulder" playing the part of a critic. "You just have to beat up that person on your shoulder." #LingComm25

Tips on podcast audio from @becauselanguage.com How hard do you go on the edit? - UMs and UHs have a function, so try to leave them. - Honour the conversation you had. Don't overwork it. - Serve the show — if it's distracting, cut it. And always always always record more than one way. #LingComm25

Valerie Friedman has an important tip on publishing (on the English-speaking scene): Agents get paid when you do. "If an agent is asking you for money up front — run." #LingComm25

Evangelia Adamou: Writing a popsci book is a great way to consolidate yourself as an expert in the field. However, "popular books don't always count the same [as academic books], especially early in your career. You may want to wait to get tenure first, before writing a popular book." #LingComm25

Valerie Friedman on writing a popular book: "There's a point at which you have the confidence to say what *WE* do, rather than just what *I* do." #LingComm25

Valerie Friedman has studied "vowel movement". "I know I can say that in this crowd and not be mistaken for a gastroenterologist." #LingComm25

Laura Wagner, on measuring impact in lingcomm: “Not that any of us would ever have wrong ideas… but itš useful to have data to back up that we’re doing things the right way.” #LingComm25
