loginInformed by sociolinguistic research, yet written accessibly, Talk It Out challenges readers to investigate disagreeing with someone as it relates to both language-use and inclusivity.
This engaging and delightfully illustrated book invites students to engage with concepts such as:
- the cultural meaning of the idiom "talk it out"
- Facework and Politeness Theory, two frameworks that linguists use to research and understand disagreements
- why it can be so hard to like someone who disagrees with you
- why the expectation to "talk it out" could make someone feel excluded
- and how understanding the way language works can help us learn to be more inclusive
