Biography

My first degree was in Classics at University College London, where I also studied Sanskrit and Comparative Philology with Paddy Considine. After working in publishing (Pergamon Press; Oxford University Press, OUP), I went to Oxford University and took the MPhil in Comparative Philology and General Linguistics (1991), and then a DPhil (1996) in historical phonology. My work was the first to apply contemporary phonetic theory to a set of sound changes reconstructed from Proto-Indo-European into the ancient languages of Italy (Phonetics and Philology, OUP 2004). During my MPhil, I was introduced to Experimental Phonetics and Sociolinguistics, especially Language Variation and Change, and I shifted my research focus to observing sound change in progress and understanding how sounds convey and reflect social meaning. This perspective was broadened by my work as an ESRC Research Fellow on a psycholinguistic research project on bilingualism and literacy acquisition in young Panjabi-English speaking-children, at the School of Education at the University of Birmingham (1996).

In 1997 I moved to north to Glasgow, where - with Mike MacMahon, Rachel Smith, and our postdocs and research students - I established the lively research group at the Glasgow University Laboratory of Phonetics (GULP).  A highlight for us all was hosting the 18th International Congress of Phonetic Sciences, ICPhS 2015, at the SECC, in Glasgow (10-14 August 2015), with our Scottish phonetics colleagues from the Universities of Edinburgh, Strathclyde and Queen Margaret University Edinburgh, which encouraged over a thousand of the world's phoneticians to come to Scotland for a stimulating and enjoyable conference.

My research considers the many relationships between speech and society, including:

  • sound change: My ongoing collaborative project, Speech Across Dialects of English (SPADE) (funded 2017-2021), exploits technological advances to expand the scope to phonetic variation and change in Old and New World English over the 20th century, with colleagues Morgan Sonderegger (McGill), Jeff Mielke, Erik Thomas, Robin Dodsworth, Paul Fyfe (North Carolina State), Tyler Kendall (Oregon), and Joe Fruehwald (Edinburgh). James Tanner is now a British Academy postdoctoral fellow at Glasgow (2023-26), exploiting the SPADE data to look at variability across dialects and speakers. Before that, I managed three exernally-funded projects on sound change, focussing on Glaswegian vernacular, moving from an apparent-time, variationist sociolinguistic study, Accent Change in Glaswegian (1999), to my current research on real-time change over the course of the 20th century (How stable is the standard? Carnegie Trust, 2015; Sounds of the City Leverhulme Trust, 2011-14). I am fortunate to collaborate with many colleagues on my work on sound change, including: Brian Jose (Indiana State University), Ludger Evers (Glasgow: Mathematics and Statistics), Rachel Macdonald (Glasgow), Robert Lennon (Glasgow), Teresa Neocleous (Glasgow: Mathematics and Statistics), Tamara Rathcke (Kent), Claire Timmins (Strathclyde), Duncan Robertson (York, UK), Morgan Sonderegger (McGill), Marton Soskuthy (York, UK).  An extension of this work has been to consider aspects of Scottish English in the input of early New Zealand English, with Lynn Clark, Jen Hay, and Kevin Watson (Christ Church, NZ).
  • influence of the broadcast media on language change: This research strand developed from my first Glasgow project in 1999, and led to my ESRC-funded project,Is television a contributory factor in accent change in adolescents? (2002-5), which was the first systematic investigation of the impact of watching TV on speech.  I continue to collaborate with Claire Timmins (Strathclyde) and Ichiro Ota (Kagoshima) on this research. Understanding how speakers parse speech without the possibility of interaction led to the collaborative PhD project carried out by Vijay Solanki, Brains in Dialogue, with Alessandro Vinciarelli, Rachel Smith, Pascal Belin and Guillaume Rousselet. More recently, I am now collaborating with Mary Ellen Foster, Gabriele Skanze (Furhat Robotics) and Shauli Ashkenazi on the sociolinguistics of Human Robot Interaction (HRI).
  • articulatory sociolinguistics: Another direction from the 1999 project was to investigate the articulatory nature of sociolinguistic variation and change using Ultrasound Tongue Imaging. This research, carried out with colleagues Jim Scobbie and Eleanor Lawson (Queen Margaret University Edinburgh), began with Looking variation and change in the mouth: developing the sociolinguistic potential of Ultrasound Tongue Imaging (ESRC, 2007-9), then Seeing the links in the speaker-hearer chain (ESRC, 2011-14), and now Changes in shape, space and time: the impact of position on the spatiotemporal and configurational articulatory properties of liquid consonants (ESRC, 2016-19). This work has also motvated collaborative projects to develop open-access online resources with audio-visual films showing speech production in action: Seeing Speech, Dynamic Dialects (AHRC 2014-15; Carnegie Trust, 2011-13). I am now working with Eleanor Lawson and Joanne Cleland (Strathclyde University), to build, the Speech Therapy Animation and imaging Resource (STAR), a pair of sister resources to Seeing Speech, called on, one for training Speech and Language Therapists, and the other for use in clinic/at home. 
  • sociophonetics: I have also carried out research projects on different aspects of social accents, including: Glasgow Asian ('Glaswasian'), spoken by Panjabi-heritage Glaswegians (with Farhana Alam, Glasgow; Claire Timmins, Strathclyde), ejectives in Scottish English (with Owen McCarthy, Notre Dame High School) and the 'Glasgow Uni' accent (with Andrew MacFarlane, formerly York, UK). I am working on the sociophonetics of Scottish children, from the large normative child speech data collection which is being collected for the Variability in Child Speech (VariCS) project, led by colleagues Anja Kuschmann and Joanne Cleland at Strathclyde.
