It’s been a great UK Sign Language Week with most members of the @erc.europa.eu SignMorph Project team re-united at @unibirmingham.bsky.social this week for joint work and a day of presentations (most of the team work remotely).

Vale William Labov. Inspired by a colleague on X, I think my favourite Bill Labov quote is: “I have resisted the term *sociolinguistics* for many years, since it implies that there can be a successful linguistic theory or practice which is not social.” Thank you for everything, Bill.
