First Year Ethnolinguistics: Can You Pronunciate That For Me? : Dialogue 10 and Poetry Assignment (Beginnings)

So. here is dialogue 10.

Here is the basic info on the poetry assignment.

And boelow is a baker’s dozen of American poets with links to some of their works and to their Wikipedia biographies.

There’s a lot of variety from the early 19th to the late 20th century with male and female, black and white poets who write in a variety of modern and traditional forms.

You can choose an entire poem (at least 150 words).

You can also choose two or more short poems with a total of at least 150 words. If you choose more than one poem they can be from the same or different poets.

You can also choose from poets not listed here but you should clear them with the instructor.

You may also choose song lyrics as a poem but these would require editing (and again should be cleared with the instructor).

These two sites could/should also be interesting:
