| Title | Summer Linguistic Institute for Youth Scholars |
| Body | From http://www.ling.ohio-state.edu/sliys This summer, The Ohio State University is offering two sessions of the Summer Linguistics Institute for Youth Scholars (SLIYS, pronounced "slice"), a week-long summer event designed for high school students interested in the study of language. The sessions will be held on OSU's main campus from July 10 - 15 and July 17 - 22. The cost is $695.00 which covers instruction, materials, housing and meals for the week. (Need-based scholarships are available.) Participants will learn, among many other things: how to make "exotic" sounds from other languages; why people speak with a foreign accent; how to avoid typical errors that may make their speech sound non-native; the various ways that cultural differences are expressed in language; and how languages differ in terms of sounds, writing systems, and the meaning and structure of words/sentences. The application deadline is April 30, 2011. However, enrolment is limited so apply early. Learn more about the program at http://www.ling.ohio-state.edu/sliys |
