Language in a Time of Pandemic

Over the past few weeks, many of you language log authors have posted about language in the time of Corona virus. In case you are curious about these connections, here's a list (if I missed any please make your additions in the comments!)

• Mitch closely examines four words connected to the Language of the Coronavirus World.

•  Jacob give advice to deal with the fact that Online Language Learning Sucks!  Kasia, does, too, in her Language Learning in a Time of Coronavirus, which also had advice for supporting your health (mental, physical, emotional...). 

• Ya'Nassia remind us about the dangers of calling this virus a name connected to people in You Would Be Surprised (Chapter Seven). Izzy does, too, in her COVID-19 Blog Post

• Kira connects to an article about medical translation in Translation in a Global Pandemic, for example, translation when Chinese doctors go to Italy to share their hard-won expertise.

A couple writers are hearing their local home accents with new ears and writing about that, too:

• Emily in North Attleborough, Massachusetts
• Mitch in the Finger Lake area of New York
