Sexuality Discourses
This review of research on sexuality discourses directs attention to the patterns of indexical disalignment that have facilitated the global rise of transphobic, homophobic, and misogynist discourses. Over the last two decades, scholarship in the area of language and sexuality has focused primarily on patterns of alignment in the community-based indexical production of social personae, a necessary move for establishing the discursive agency, and …
Lesbian at the vanguard
This tribute considers the work of linguist and novelist, Anna Livia (1955–2007). Anna was a noted fiction writer before becoming a linguist and much of her work considered language play in literature. Anna brought her experience as a lesbian activist to queer linguistics, where she played an important role in establishing the field. Her work continues to be an important example of linguistic research on lesbians, an area that continues to be und…

Joel Sherzer and the Importance of Staying Discourse-Centered
The Poetic Line, the Popol Wuj, and the History of Anthropology
Sherzer's (1982) examination of the poetic line demonstrated that a focus on the poetic line provides new insights into the complexity of the structure of discourse across a wide range of genres. Here, I extend Sherzer's approach by considering how representations of poetic line structure reflect analysts' relationship with speakers of the languages involved. Looking at representations of the poetic line across different editions of the K'iche' M…
Poetics
With a literary tradition spanning two millennia, Maya poetics has received much scholarly attention (e.g. Edmonson 1971 , 1982 ; Tedlock 1983 ; Sam Colop 1994 ; Hull and Carrasco 2012 ). The Mayan languages share a common poetic tradition that is a robust example of cultural continuity between pre-Columbian and contemporary Maya communities. The poetic structures found in Hieroglyphic Maya texts are remarkably similar to those found in contempor…

Ideophones and (non-)arbitrariness in the K’iche’ poetry of Humberto Ak’abal
This paper examines the ways in which Ak’abal uses K’iche’ ideophones and arbitrariness to highlight differences between Mayan languages and Spanish. This paper focuses on Ak’abal’s sound poems constructed through the use of K’iche’ ideophones, primarily onomatopoetic forms representing natural phenomena such as animal sounds, the movement of water, and sounds associated with weather. Ak’abal often treats non-onomatopoetic words (such as the name…

Linguistic differentiation and Mayan language revitalization in Guatemala1
This paper presents a quantitative study of syntactic change in the context of Mayan language revitalization in Guatemala. Quantitative analyses of grammatical variation and code-switching patterns were used to examine the degree of Spanish influence in the speech of three generations of Sipakapense-Spanish bilinguals. The younger generations show lower frequencies of code-switching compared to the oldest generation. In terms of syntactic variati…
The Evolutionary Phonology of Glottal Stops in K’ichean
Language ideology and racial inequality
This article examines the influence of language ideology on interactions between English-speaking Anglo and monolingual Spanish-speaking employees in an Anglo-owned Mexican restaurant in Texas. In directives to Spanish-speaking employees, Anglo managers typically use English with elements of Mock Spanish. Because the Anglo managers fail to question whether their limited use of Spanish is sufficient for communicative success, Spanish speakers are …
Models of gay male identity and the marketing of “gay language” in foreign-language phrasebooks for gay men
This paper examines two models that have been used in theoretical discussions of language and sexuality. The two models, the culture-based model and the desire-based model, view the gay community as formed through a shared culture or based solely on sexual desire. The impact of the models in works by Leap (1996) and Kulick (2000) is discussed, and the models are used to demonstrate competing views of gay language found in foreign-language phraseb…

Recent time trends in uterine cancer
Recent trends in corpus uterine cancer incidence rates were explored using 1979-86 data from the Surveillance and End Results Program (SEER); recent trends in hospitalizations for corpus uterine cancer were explored using 1979-86 data from National Hospital Discharge Surveys (NHDS); and recent trends in exogenous hormone use were delineated using data from the 1980, 1981, and 1985 National Ambulatory Medical Care Surveys (NAMCS). Uterine cancer i…
