Unpacking ritual last words as ‘rituals’ and ‘words’
Language De-socialization: Introducing a New Concept
This article presents the theoretical concept of language de-socialization , which refers to processes through which the declining linguistic and interactive capacities of an individual, as well as the loss of personhood as defined in a particular cultural setting, are managed in and through language. The article discusses de-socialization as an extension of a theoretical forebear, language socialization, which has been defined as “how young chil…
Taps Responsibility matrix: A tool for responsible data science by design

Only 16 patients were noted speaking, and only four canonical last words were reported. The most frequent observation by medica…

Une série d'entretiens informels effectués avec des linguistes permet de comprendre pourquoi les linguistes ont ignoré cette question : la difficulté de recueillir des données, les pro…
