#multilingual #landscape spotted in Lleida, Spain last week. ❤️

Spent last week at the University of Lleida in Spain, invited by my colleague Alexandra Vraciu. Had a wonderful time meeting students from the Faculty of Education, planning future collaborations & presenting #FlowLangGroup fluency research to the research group Cercle de Lingüística Aplicada (📷).

Fully funded 4-year PhD with me at VU Amsterdam #emca workingat.vu.nl/vacancies/ph...

At the end of last year, I had the pleasure of presenting my fluency research at Young Academy Finland’s Academy Club. The talk was recorded, and you can find a link to it at the bottom of the page: nuortentiedeakatemia.fi/en/2025/01/1... (Note also the recording of the Q&A for all presenters)

1st article of 2025 is out! 🎉 Part of our forthcoming special issue for IRAL. We (w/ @maaritmutta.bsky.social, Päivi Laine & @pekkalintunen.bsky.social) examined fluency across modes. Data from FDF2 & KISUVI projects (funding: Research Council of Finland & @koneensaatio.fi). doi.org/10.1515/iral...

ILFACT-hankkeessa (KKL, Turun yliopisto) on haettavana tutkimusavustajan/projektitutkijan määräaikainen tuntipalkkainen tehtävä ajalle 1.2.2025–30.11.2025 (max 600 h). Hakuaikaa 9.1.2025 klo 16.00 asti. Ks. www.utu.fi/fi/yliopisto... (tunniste 20621). Lisätietoja: sites.utu.fi/flowlang/fi/...

Our doctoral programme Utuling’s annual field trip was organized in Paimio Sanatorium (designed by Aino and Alvar Aalto in 1929) this year. A fascinating place!

Had fun giving a presentation on my #fluency research at Young Academy Finland’s event earlier today. Learned a lot from the other presentations as well (and yes, I still take notes by hand)! #FlowLangGroup

Hey #linguistics, I've created a starter pack for phoneticians, speech people, and phriends. If you feel like I've left someone out or you have suggestions, just lmk! I want more spectrograms on my feed so let's make that happen. go.bsky.app/LPrwcbq

Want to advertise my new project ”L2 Interactional Fluency across Contexts” (ILFACT; launched this September) a bit here as well, since our project researcher Elina Lehtilä made this beautiful illustration for it: sites.utu.fi/flowlang/pro... #FlowLangGroup
