Dear all, Mark Liberman at the Language Log ( http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/ ) has in the past couple of days discussed a New York Times article that claims Hungarians to speak faster than Americans. After his critical review of the original study ( http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/language ... 03463.html ) he has now decided to do an experiment of his own. His blog entry (dated today) reads: "If you're a native speaker of Hungarian, know how to make an audio recording on your computer (or would like to learn), and are willing to devote a few minutes to science, please contact me. The goal is to do a small experiment to test the relative speaking and subvocalizing rates of Americans and Hungarians. (If you can recruit a few Hungarian-speaking friends to join the group, so much the better.)" This post, which includes Liberman's contact details, can be found at: http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/language ... 03464.html I thought that some of you might be interested in taking part in the experiment. If not, please excuse my intrusion (and apologies to those who do not speak Hungarian in the first place). I would also like to take the opportunity to wish you all a pleasant last few weeks of the summer vacation. All the best, Vili [Maunula] |
