Utah English Survey

Hi everyone! My name is Chad Huckvale and I’m a student in the linguistics program at Brigham Young University. Working with Dr. Joey Stanley, I am conducting research (IRB Study: IRB2022-343) for my masters thesis on Utah English.

If you have lived in the state of Utah for 1 or more years in the past 10 years, please take this survey that I have created which will help me understand how people perceive English is spoken in Utah. The survey should take roughly 10 minutes to complete. There is no payment for participation in this survey.

If you have any questions or concerns about this study, please email me at chad.huckvale@gmail.com. Otherwise, feel free to click here and begin!

Looking for other guys to swim with

Hi I’m a 21m college student in Provo. Asking for no judgement here, but I want to have the courage to wear a speedo in public swimming but would prefer to not do it alone. I’ve done it alone but would be relieved to find people already used to it. Is there a group or anyone in the college age range that would be cool joining me? Doesn’t have to be just 1 person either. Any help appreciated.

Utah Dialect survey

Hi, everyone. I'm a linguistics professor at Brigham Young University and I'm doing some research right now on Utah English (and English in the Middle Rockies region generally). I'd like to collect some audio from anyone and everyone who grew up in Utah, regardless of whether you feel like you have an accent.

The task would be to find a quiet place and record yourself reading aloud about 200 words and answer some open-ended questions about yourself and about language. You can just use the microphone built into your phone or computer. The whole thing should take about 10 minutes. (Fair warning: I do ask about affiliation with the LDS church and one of the questions is about whether you think there's a "Mormonese.")

If you grew up speaking English, are 18 or older, and have spent most of your life in Utah, I'd be very grateful if you'd take a few minutes and help me out.

Click here to view the survey.

My goal is to have some basic results by the end of the summer and I'll add a link to this post when that's ready. I'll also be making the rounds to any other Utah-based subreddits I can find over the next few weeks (so I apologize if you see this again!), but feel free to share this link to other online spaces or to other people you know who qualify.

Thank you!

Joey Stanley

Provo Softball

Hey folks! A quick question, I live in Provo and am interested in trying out adult rec softball, but they don't do individual registration for anything softball related (tournaments or the full "season"). So, I'm just wondering if any of you are involved in that sort of thing and could help me out! It might be a shot in the dark but any help would be appreciated!

Any barbers/haircutters in the area who are good with medium length men's hair?

Moved into the area recently, I'm in the northern part of the valley so I'm open to places in southern Salt Lake Valley as well. Google maps is showing me a lot of really highly rated barbers/haircutters in the area, but some of them specifically only do short (normal) cuts for men. My hair isn't super long but I definitely want it longer than that. It is also somewhat curly. Are there any good barbers in the area who can figure out a good haircut for medium-length curly hair on a man?

Besides meetups, what are some other things you would like to see us get going here? We can start encouraging posts that are specific to Utah County or other such things.

Non-LDS Families?

Just reaching out, looking for some non-Mormon friends in the valley. I have two kids under 10. I have LDS friends and they are great, am not looking to offend anyone, but not as like minded and can’t fully be myself. It can be isolating.

I won a newegg shuffle

I won a newegg shuffle but already have a 3080 GPU. Is anyone looking for a graphics card at MSRP? I know they've been hard to come by.

I'd like it to go to a gaming pc. I don't care if you mine in your spare time, but it better not end up in a rig.

Edit: Still available. It's an MSI 3080 Sea Hawk X. An AIO model, possibly the best out there. After tax it was $1317.21

Africans in Utah Valley??

Hey friends, Do you know of any African monthly gatherings in your area? If you are aware of any welcoming parties for American DV lottery winners in your area, too, hosted by African families, I'd also like to know. As I'm looking to move to Utah but want to live in an area with a good number of African families. Thank you!

Dating culture in Utah Valley

My friends and I have been talking about how unique the dating culture in Utah is. It seems that most of the time guys here go for the typical insta blonde white girls with lash extension or vasa dudes. Most of my friends go to BYU, UVU and U of U. All of my friends or people in my social circle who don’t fit this mold have a difficult time dating whether it’s online or meeting people in person. It’s not uncommon for them to be rejected solely based on the fact that they are not blonde. They have been told in person that this is the reason why they want to stop dating. We want to know if the people ñ in Utah have a type? We can’t decide if it’s because there is a certain kind of beauty standard here or it’s just a type that some prefer. We are also curious if this happens in other states or just more common in Utah.

Mink farm and smells around Holbrook farms area

We are considering buying one of the properties in Holbrook farms area, Lehi. But we are concerned about the stinking smell from Mink farms nearby. I have heard it travels all across west side of Lehi. But would like to know from anyone who lives there, if that’s true and if they have any other issues around here? Thanks much!

Anyone have any hole in the wall restaurant recommendations?

I'm in Orem for a couple of weeks and I'm looking to try some new food places.

If you have any recommendations for good hole in the wall places, or anywhere that sells unique or odd foods, I'd love to hear them!
