Schwa Has One Good Life...

17 January 2013

Here's a quick little linguistic joke since the weekend is just about there! Time for some (minor) relaxation! I just love these "Linguist Llama" memes... some are quite funny.:)

On a side note: I've finally got some responses back on possible SLP shadow opportunities! Now I just need to get some more responses, as well as some volunteer placements and I'll be one happy lady this semester!

  2. Linguists and SLPs use the IPA alphabet to transcribe words to pronounce them. Schwa is a letter for a vowel sound thats only in unstressed syllables, and then there's another vowel symbol called ' wedge' thats in stressed syllables.
