Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. A fun, smart and surprising dive into the past, present and future of accents and the enduring power of sounding differentAccents have long held our fascination. As far back as the 7th century BCE, Egyptian pharaohs experimented with babies to test out theories about the original accent and… the Old Testament relays how a small difference in the pronunciation of s became a fatal litmus test of tribal belonging. Still today, from dinner parties to job interviews, youll find people kicking up dust about things like where and how to pronounce a t, as in, never in often, but with proper British poshness, as in t(y)une. In Why We Talk Funny, linguist Valerie Fridland unlocks the secrets of what linguistic science, psychology and history can tell us about the evolution of human speech, why accents develop, and how they shape our professional and social lives. With a healthy dose of her signature humor and captivating anecdotes, Fridland explores how the twin forces of physiology and psychology along with the need to fit in changes the trajectory of speech over languages and lifetimes, diving deep into the history and social forces driving the way people talk. Along the way, she emphasizes that accents dont always set us apart, they can also bring us together. Whether it's the accent that hints at your hometown, your group, your social status or your ethnicity, the sounds we say reveal a lot about who we are and where weve been even for those who might think they have no accent at all.The story of language is the story of humanity, and as Fridland reminds us, the funny sounds we make whether from the mouths of ancient ancestors or the tongues of screenbound teens all come from the same powerful desire to communicate and belong. Why We Talk Funny will change the way you think about your own accent and transform the way you listen to the sounds of others.
