#DiPVaC5 Csilla Ilona Dér investigates whether 'hogy' (that) in Hungarian is a discourse-pragmatic marker. Conclusion? It has elements of one, but perhaps not fully fledged. Suggestion for some phonetic analysis sounds promising!

#DiPVaC5 Hlavac examines the speech of English-Croatian-speaking bilinguals, finding large numbers of turn-initial "yeah" in English in an otherwise Croatian turn. Interesting!
