The most interesting exhibit was a language exhibit located in Casino Luxembourg, that had exhibits on how linguistic indicators affect community, diaspora and even conflict. I was specifically drawn to this exhibit since a large part of what I was planning to research in my PhD revolved around the language indicators in understanding compliance with the law. The exhibit covered the origin of the usage of the word Shibboleth to indicate a minute word or tradition that distinguishes between two communities. The word Shibboleth was used to test identity in the Book of Judges due to its unique pronunciation by differing groups. I find this interesting not just because of my academic interests, but also because of our experience learning and speaking Dutch in the Netherlands. Despite our best efforts to converse in Dutch with shop assistants or service providers, people around us invariably switch back to English because of our foreign accent. We’ve started resorting  to informing people that we’re trying to practice Dutch before speaking any Dutch! Pronunciation, word choice and accent have the capacity to form unbreakable in-group bonds, while simultaneously presenting outgroup members with an unscalable wall, overgrown with thorny bramble.
