Mi Diaries

We are a project documenting changes in the lives and language of people living in Michigan during the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond. Across the state, kids, teens, and adults send us ‘audio diaries’ recorded on their phones or other devices. We send new prompts each week to get the diarists thinking, and they respond! Diarists can receive a gift card every week as a thank you. The audio diaries will help us to answer some research questions about how and why language changes over time.
