Thanks Steph and David for these posts.

Here’s a related comment from 1991 by Becker, basically a response to the earlier “structural” views of language (e.g., Chomsky) with a use-based view (e.g., Gumperz and DH):

Hi Steph,

I associate the term “languaging” with a group of scholars in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Copenhagen (Jørgensen, Karrebæk, Madsen, Møller, etc.). The piece by this group I had taught was called “Polylanguaging in Superdiversity” – you can download it from here: https://unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0000214772.nameddest=214781<https://nam04.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Funesdoc.unesco.org%2Fark%3A%2F48223%2Fpf0000214772.nameddest%3D214781&data=04%7C01%7Cmbartesaghi%40usf.edu%7C88b5ae2c161f495f23ef08d95e8027e9%7C741bf7dee2e546df8d6782607df9deaa%7C0%7C0%7C637644727325688844%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C2000&sdata=C4DPooGXendpWafWFMbQ3V%2Bjt%2BduuaKAQFs%2Bi3srbds%3D&reserved=0> You might find some useful references in the bibliography.

Subject: [Ethnocomm] origin of "languaging"

Hi everyone, happy summering -- hope somehow everyone finds respite and recharge.

I'm working on an article where I want to use the word "languaging" to introduce it to an audience who probably has never seen it but will intuit what it means.  Pretty sure I learned it from Jan Blommaert but unclear which is a meaningful citation if a reader wants to actually follow up.

Could I get some recommendations, please?

thanks in advance,

steph
