Linguists Need Data! Poster

Linguists need data—keep your mouth open! This new poster in our vintage poster series is a twist on a World War II poster from the Government Printing Office that originally said “Don’t be a sucker—Keep your mouth shut.”

The text at the bottom says “This poster is published by Cascadilla Press as a contribution to the National Linguistics Effort.”

Loose Lips Poster

The famous original from World War II was Loose Lips Might Sink Ships. We have an updated version for our linguistics audience: Loose Lips Make Bilabial Trills.

The text at the bottom says “This poster is published by Cascadilla Press as a contribution to the National Linguistics Effort.” We have more retro linguistics posters in the pipeline, so keep your eye on this space (or your department hallway).

This poster was first available at our BUCLD 36 book exhibit. We’ve now added it to our shop on Cafepress, joining our other fun linguistics posters.
