Goodmorning! *Today*, we are having our *Language and Cognition* event with *Professor Charles Chang* at *5:00 pm in CAS 222.* *How is language influenced by thought (and culture)? How is thought influenced by language? In this event, we'll discuss the relationship between language and cognition, including the so-called "Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis" and Neo-Whorfian investigations of linguistic relativity. Topics to be addressed (time permitting) are grammatical effects (gender, number, tense), frame of reference, conceptual metaphors, sensory perception, and decision-making.* Also, the Linguistics colloquium event that was canceled last week has been rescheduled for this Friday! The colloquium with Morgan Sonderegger is now being held this Friday, *March 30, 2018, at 4:00 pm in LSE B01. *(In 24 Cummington Mall) For more information check out the colloquium at the Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/events/555009674866965/ Hope to see ya there!
