North-East Accent Games

Hello!

We are promoting the use of gamification methods to collect linguistic data, especially phonetic data. In Kim, Kogan, Zhang (2024) below, we discussed the potential rationales and importance of gamifying linguistic experiments. As a follow-up, we are trialling a gamified system for a (socio-)phonetic project.

We celebrate the incredible diversity of North East English accents. Join us on a fun and rewarding journey of linguistic discovery!

Wey aye, man: Think you know a North-East accent when you hear one?

We will host an event during the Festival of Social Science. Come and join us for a fun day!
