Graduate students in the Department of Linguistics are unlocking the mysteries of human communication. Several are investigating how people who speak different dialects of the same language make judgments about each others’ personality, intellect, or social status. Some are examining ways that people learn second languages, with an eye toward improving education and understanding how our brains process oral and written communication. Still others are working to improve the way computers are used to teach language skills.
