The 2024 Annual Meeting of the Linguistic Society of America included its traditional Five Minute Linguist event, where linguists make brief presentations of their research intended to be engaging for a general audience. This year there were both video submissions and in-person talks, and the winning in-person talk was by our department’s Kie Zuraw, on joint work with Paolo Roca, “What songs can tell us about language: rhythms in Filipino pop music”. You can view a screencast version of the talk here on the LSA’s Youtube channel.
