Today, the ACL Anthology switched to a new system for how author pages work. From now on, ORCID iDs will be the main mechanism for matching papers to the correct author. 🧵⤵️

How do adverbs and prepositions relate to each other? English has (i) "outside" (without a complement), and also (ii) "outside the house" (with a complement). Should we say that (i) is an intransitive preposition, or that (ii) contains a transitive adverb? Or something else?
23%(i) = intransitive prep.
9%(ii) = transitive adverb
34%something else

Languages around the world are changing rapidly to become more inclusive of LGBTQ identities. But in some cases,  for people who use American Sign Language, there’s still not a clear consensus on which sign is best. The Post asked several members of the Deaf queer community to demonstrate how ASL is evolving. wapo.st/3PC6sh9
