Autorenporträt

Robert Kennedy has taught phonology, phonetics, linguistic analysis, and dialects of English for over fifteen years. As a specialist in reduplicative phonology and morphology, accent portrayal, nickname formation, and the linguistics of team sports, he has published in Phonology, American Speech, and Linguistic Inquiry. He is also a widely sought media presence, cited in the Boston Globe, New York Times, Baltimore Sun, Chicago Tribune, USA Today, and on BBC Sporthour. A prolific internet humourist (through his page, lolPhonology), he is always interested in new ways to make linguistics engaging and accessible to a broad audience.
