Job title:
Visiting Student
Bio/CV:
Hello! I'm Ziqi (pronounced Zee-Chee). I'm a PhD student in linguistics from the University of Chicago, and I'm visiting UC Berkeley for the spring semester. My research interests largely lie in sociophonetics, language contact, and language ideology. My dissertation focuses on the so-called "New Immigrant Cantonese," a variety that emerged from the contact between Cantonese, Mandarin, and other Sinitic languages and spoken by immigrants who came from Mainland China to Hong Kong.
