Motion, Direction and Location in Languages

Auteure: Erin Shay , Uwe Seibert

Nombre de pages: 320

This book contributes to an area of study that is of interest to linguists of all backgrounds. Typological in nature this volume presents data analysis from the major language families of Africa as well as Sino-Tibetan, Austronesian, Japanese, Indo-European, Siouan and Penutian. The 16 contributors to the volume share a commitment to examining the language phenomena pertaining to the volume s theme with a fresh eye. While most of the papers make reference to existing theoretical frameworks, each also makes a novel and sometimes surprising contribution to the body of knowledge and theory concerning motional, directional and locational predicates, complements, morphology, adpositions and other phenomena. This collection of articles suitably complements courses on comparative and diachronic linguistics, semantics, syntax, typology, or field methods.

Foreign Language and Culture Learning from a Dialogic Perspective

Foreign Language and Culture Learning from a Dialogic Perspective

Auteure: Carol Morgan , Albane Cain

Nombre de pages: 172

This book analyses an intercultural project undertaken by French and English 14-year-olds based on an exchange of materials created by the pupils and focused on the topic of law and order. The project was based on a view of learning as a dialogic process interacting with others. A first language and home culture is acquired through such interaction. This project sought to realise this dialogic process in a more meaningful way than is often the case in foreign language classrooms.

National, Regional and Minority Languages in Europe

National, Regional and Minority Languages in Europe

Auteure: European Federation Of National Institutions For Language. Conference , Gerhard Stickel

Nombre de pages: 204

The European linguistic diversity goes far beyond the official national languages of the present 27 member states of the European Union. In every country several languages of smaller or larger groups of speakers are used besides the official language or the languages of the majority population. These languages are autochthonous languages that have been used for a long time in the individual country as well as allochthonous languages of different groups of migrants and their descendants. The sometimes complicated relations between national, regional and minority languages within various countries are discussed in this volume. Besides reports on several countries, the general sociolinguistic and legal conditions are dealt with in overview contributions. In addition, the Dublin Declaration on the relationship between official languages and regional and minority languages in Europe is presented in 24 languages.

Topics in Audiovisual Translation

Topics in Audiovisual Translation

Auteure: Pilar Orero

Nombre de pages: 250

The late twentieth-century transition from a paper-oriented to a media-oriented society has triggered the emergence of Audiovisual Translation as the most dynamic and fastest developing trend within Translation Studies. The growing interest in this area is a clear indication that this discipline is going to set the agenda for the theory, research, training and practice of translation in the twenty-first century. Even so, this remains a largely underdeveloped field and much needs to be done to put Screen Translation, Multimedia Translation or the wider implications of Audiovisual Translation on a par with other fields within Translation Studies. In this light, this collection of essays reflects not only the “state of the art” in the research and teaching of Audiovisual Translation, but also the professionals' experiences. The different contributions cover issues ranging from reflections on professional activities, to theory, the impact of ideology on Audiovisual Translation, and the practices of teaching and researching this new and challenging discipline.In expanding further the ground covered by the John Benjamins' book (Multi)Media Translation (2001), this book seeks to...

Les 5 langages pour trouver l'amour

Auteure: Gary Chapman

Nombre de pages: 286

Vous sentez-vous frustré ne pas parvenir à vous épanouir dans vos relations ? Selon Gary Chapman, nous devons nous sentir aimé(e) pour être heureux. Mais nous avons chacun(e) notre personnalité et nous n'exprimons pas notre amour de la même manière. Si vous voulez donner ou recevoir efficacement, vous devez apprendre à parler le juste langage. Chapman identifie cinq moyens d'expression principaux par lesquels chaque individu peut manifester son amour et nous apprend à les utiliser : les paroles valorisantes, les moments de qualité, les cadeaux, les services rendus, le contact physique. Alors, parlez-vous le même langage que vos proches ? Découvrez : L'ingrédient qui manquait dans vos relations passées : pourquoi ont-elles échoué et comment ne plus reproduire les mêmes erreurs ? Comment partager son amour peut transformer toutes vos relations. Comment déclencher enfin la bonne relation en étant à l'écoute sincère de vos besoins et de ceux de la personne rencontrée. Inclus : le test pour déterminer votre profil.

La dimension politique du langage

La dimension politique du langage

Auteure: Bobongaud Stève Gaston

Nombre de pages: 482

Les investigations épistémologiques présentées ici correspondent à un ensemble de propositions buissonnières autour du langage dans la pensée d’Éric Weil. En scrutant la production théorique weilienne,il s’est agi d’envisager le fait du langage dans la mesure où il rapproche et différencie l’homme de l’animal et participe à la structuration existentielle de l’être humain en face de la violence, qui apparaît comme l’autre de la raison. En d’autres mots, la recherche montre que, chez Éric Weil, le plan du langage représente le milieu qui facilite la spécification anthropologique et la configurationraisonnable de l’être-homme dans le monde. Comme tel, il équivaut au sol d’émergence et d’historicisation de l’être humain. Le langage contribue à l’auto-constitution authentique de l’homme et à son inscription durable dans le monde. Il aide les hommes à s’orienter dans le temps ainsi qu’à organiser leur histoire. Il permet aussi au philosophe de surgir au plan mondain puis le conduit à se manifester comme homo theoreticus dans et au-delà de la spatialité et de la temporalité. L’originalité du livre se situe proprement dans...

Building Capacity: Using TEFL and African Languages as Development-oriented Literacy Tools

Building Capacity: Using TEFL and African Languages as Development-oriented Literacy Tools

Auteure: Ngessimo M. Mutaka

Nombre de pages: 193

"Building Capacity promotes the vision that the teaching of African languages can best achieve its aim of boosting the economic and cultural development of the Africans if they are made to work in synergy with a revamping of the course contents of international languages that will be taught within the frame of a development-oriented literacy curriculum. Great emphasis is put on the oral skills in the use of African languages as they are to serve as a link between the community and the school for the ultimate revitalization of the positive aspects of African cultures in a world beset by globalization. The book is supplemented with a sample of texts in the appendix that are meant to be a bridge between formal texts taught in classrooms and literacy texts that can raise the genuine interests of the local populations in that they address their immediate needs. Among the possible topics language teachers are encouraged to explore in their classes are those concerning economic development, but also such issues as health, education, the environment, food security, and conflict resolution. ""In the face of the growing interest in the use of African Languages by Africans as symbols of...
