Hi Emma!! I have been dealing with the same (i.e., searching for predoctoral research stays) these days, too, and although my field is a little bit different (grammar and L2 acquisition), maybe we could exchange some tips.. I'll send you some insights and advice that I got, it might help you decide😊

Thanks so much for sharing this!! I can add a couple of articles/textbooks about Bayesian statistics, statistics for bilingualism research, and intros into statistics that have helped me very much, maybe you will find some of them useful and add them to your collection 😊

And for grammar and vocabulary, these are really useful: www.profedeele.es (online interactive exercises), videoele.com (videos with transcripts and interactive activities), or www.bancopanhispanico.org (activities adapted to various varieties).

For a little bit of daily listening, you could give a try to News in Slow Spanish (www.newsinslowspanish.com) or Hola Qué Pasa (holaquepasa.com/news-in-easy...) where you can find news segments adapted to various proficiency levels. This website has also good audios: www.profe-de-espanol.de

The good thing is that all clusters consisting of 4 and 5 consonants contain the liquids r and l, which makes them pronounceable (štvrť = quarter, žblnknúť = to plop, vzbĺknuť = to flare up, zmrzlina = icecream).

Slovak is notorious for consonant clusters (up to 5 cons.), e.g., zdvihnúť = to pick up, pštros = an ostrich, zmraziť = to freeze, quite a challenge for L2 learners! There is even a tongue twister consisting of only consonant clusters, “Strč prst skrz krk” (stick your finger through your throat 😁.

In Slovak: ä (shape, plus its pronunciation, which sounds a bit old-fashioned and young people tend to pronounce it as an e), ô, and dž (sound)
In Ukrainian: ї (my absolute favourite, shape and sound), щ, ц (sound)
In Brazilian Portuguese: r, and d and t, as pronounced before i (sound)
In Spanish: ñ

If you have a FB account, you could join FB groups such as “English native speakers”, “English questions answered”, “Second language research”, etc. There are many native speakers of different varieties of English willing to give a ton of feedback about acceptability of sentences in their variety 😊.

And for Spanish linguistics, I really recommend the podcast @racionalistaomni.bsky.social : sites.google.com/view/antonio... (excellent for theoretical and experimental linguistics in general, but also a great resource for learning linguistic terminology in Spanish)

For English linguistics, I really like Martin Hilpert’s YT channel www.youtube.com/@MartinHilpe... (bilingualism, cognitive ling., step-by-step tutorials for designing linguistic experiments) and Languagejones www.youtube.com/@languagejones (linguistics, language learning).
