Talking Like Children: Language and the Production of Age in the Marshall Islands | 
pickLinguistic anthropologist Berman explores the culture of a village on a small #MarshallIslands atoll, revealing the socialization of adults and children based on behavior and language. I was worried this would be dry, but it‘s completely fascinating. She uses a simple story of an interaction between multiple people to illustrate each of her points and is deeply respectful of the people and their culture.
