Great work - I told Marcus that I'd love to see this lead to a special issue where different colleagues respond to the issues in this article, as also happened with Evans & Levinson's paper on linguistic diversity back in 2009. What do you think?

Yes, I hear you and I agree, but I feel like the horse has bolted: I still see lots of colleagues using Ethnologue as a source, so I'd prefer that the information that they have is as accurate as possible.

Really? I have had a close friend from south London who experiences this a lot.

Apparently, if you're an expert on (a) particular language(s), and you provide input, you can be granted access according to a colleague of mine. Maybe we should try that?

Ha yes I’ve heard other people from south east England have had the same experience, and yet all three accents (London, Australian, and New Zealand) sound very different to me!

If he lives in Australia, he’s definitely not from there. 😊 This YouTuber doesn’t have an Australian accent. He sounds like an immigrant from England.

I speak with a clearly Australian English accent by the way, although not a particularly broad one.

New data analysis of what sorry?

Me too! It's great we are both in the same block!
