The Phonology Circle will be moving back to its regular Monday meeting time for the spring semester. (Mondays 5pm, 32-D831) The first meeting of the semester will be next Monday, Feb 9. We’ll start with a brief organizational meeting to decide on the schedule for the semester, and then Hrayr will give a BLS practice talk on the topic of Stress-dependent vowel reduction.
