Due by 5pm on Sunday, April 13: Discussion Post #10 on the Ning
Imagine that you have received a research grant to conduct a linguistic study of your target language and culture. How would you get started, and what would you investigate? How would different structural components presented in class appear in your work?

I liked your idea, focusing on cooking vocabulary is such a creative and relatable way to study language. It’s cool how you tied in media like YouTube and blogs, since that’s where a lot of real, everyday language shows up. I also thought your attention to politeness levels and verb forms in recipes was cool; it’s a great way to see how language and culture are deeply connected.
