Language Meaning and Society is an international journal of linguistic

anthropology. It is an annual peer-reviewed publication edited by graduate

students in the linguistic anthropology program at the University of Texas

given emerging communication technologies and increased possibilities for

interaction across nations and communities. We welcome articles that

examine dimensions of language that are of social significance using

original data. We also welcome commentaries, discussions, and book reviews.
