The interdisciplinary field of Linguistic Landscape (LL), borrowing from such diverse fields as cultural geography, sociolinguistics, ethnography, applied linguistics, or cultural psychology, to name but a few, has shown how a given space can be conceived, lived, and experienced in vastly different ways depending on who the authors or the users or that passersby in that space. Indeed, the Linguistic Landscape of an area is a site of stories and histories that are emplaced, nested in each other, stories of \u201cpeople in place\u201d with their own language(s), their own culture(s), their own way of relating \u2013 and existing \u2013 to the place: the LL reflects our communities (e.g., street art or political signs in this electoral period), facilitates or constrains people\u2019s movements (e.g., announcements in multiple languages in the Pittsburgh airport, catering to speakers of different languages vs. \u201cno parking\u201d or \u201cno smoking\u201d signs), make certain communities and their histories more or less visible in a given space.
