Why does language change? Why can we speak to and understand our parents but have trouble reading Shakespeare? Why is Chaucer's English of the fourteenth century so different from Modern English of the late twentieth century that the two are essentially different languages? Why are Americans and English 'one people divided by a common language'? And how can the language of Chaucer and Modern English - or Modern British and American English - still be called the same language? The present book provides answers to questions like these in a straightforward way aimed at the non-specialist with ample illustrations from both familiar and more exotic languages.

The present book provides answers to questions like these in a straightforward way aimed at the non-specialist with ample illustrations from both familiar and more exotic languages. Most chapters in this new edition have been reworked with some difficult passages removed other passages thoroughly rewritten and several new sections added e.g. on language and race and on Indian writing systems. Further the chapter notes and bibliography have all been updated. The content is engaging focusing on topics and issues that spark student interest. Its goals are broadly pedagogical and the level and presentation are appropriate for interested beginners with little or no background in linguistics. The language coverage for examples goes well beyond what is usual for books of this kind with a considerable amount of data from various languages of India.

Eine spannende und unterhaltsame Reise durch Falcos Sprachwelt „Der große Edle der Wiener Lässigkeit“ – so wurde Falco einst von H.C. Artmann bezeichnet, der nicht daran zweifelte, dass Falco ein Dichter war. Und das ist das Kernthema dieses Buches: Falco, der Poet. Mit seinen Sprachmischungen, dem berühmt-berüchtigten Manhattan-Schönbrunner-Deutsch galt er als Erneuerer und Verknüpfer von Elementen der internationalen Sprachkunst. Er war das missing link zwischen Pop und Avantgarde, zwischen Schlager und Experiment, zwischen lokalem Slang und Esperanto. Wo anders findet man Zeilen wie „der schlange kur / ist nur l’amour / for sure / / der schlange kur / toujours / anacondamour“? Acht namhafte Germanisten, darunter Klaus Kastberger, Günter Zimmermann und Peter Ernst. widmen sich der poetologischen Ebene von Falcos Texten und fördern überraschende Ergebnisse ans Licht. Wie auch anders, denn die Legende lebt!

In the sociopolitics of language sometimes yesterday's solution is tomorrow's problem. This volume examines the evolving nature of language acquisition planning through a collection of papers that consider how decisions about language learning and teaching are mediated by a confluence of psychological ideological and historical forces. The first two parts of the volume feature empirical studies of formal and informal education across the lifespan and around the globe. Case studies map the agents resources and attitudes needed for creating moments and spaces for language learning that may at times collide with wider beliefs and policies that privilege some languages over others. The third part of the volume is devoted to conceptual contributions that take up theoretical issues related to epistemological and conceptual challenges for language acquisition planning. These contributions reflect on the full spectrum of social and cognitive factors that intersect with the planning of language teaching and learning including ethnic and racial power relations historically situated political systems language ideologies community language socialization relationships among stakeholders in communities and schools interpersonal interaction and intrapersonal development. In all the volume demonstrates the multifaceted and socially situated nature of language acquisition planning.

Perspectives on Language and Language Development brings together new perspectives on language discourse and language development in 31 chapters by leading scholars from several countries with diverging backgrounds and disciplines. It is a comprehensive overview of language as a rich multifaceted system inspired by the lifework of Ruth A. Berman. Edited by Dorit Ravid and Hava Bat-Zeev Shyldkrot both from Tel Aviv University Israel the book offers state-of-the-art portrayals of linguistic and psycholinguistic phenomena with new insights on the interrelations of language structure discourse theory and the development of language and literacy. The volume presents innovative investigations on the interface of language and narrative in a broad range of languages with a section devoted to linguistic studies of Modern Hebrew. It traces the development of language and literacy from early childhood through adolescence to maturity in spoken and written contexts and in monolingual as well as multilingual perspectives. Linguists psycholinguists discourse scholars cognitive psychologists language teachers education experts and clinicians working in the field of language and discourse will find this book extremely useful both as a textbook and as a source of information.

Research in Natural Language Processing (NLP) has rapidly advanced in recent years resulting in exciting algorithms for sophisticated processing of text and speech in various languages. Much of this work focuses on English; in this book we address another group of interesting and challenging languages for NLP research: the Semitic languages. The Semitic group of languages includes Arabic (206 million native speakers) Amharic (27 million) Hebrew (7 million) Tigrinya (6.7 million) Syriac (1 million) and Maltese (419 thousand). Semitic languages exhibit unique morphological processes challenging syntactic constructions and various other phenomena that are less prevalent in other natural languages. These challenges call for unique solutions many of which are described in this book. The 13 chapters presented in this book bring together leading scientists from several universities and research institutes worldwide. While this book devotes some attention to cutting-edge algorithms and techniques its primary purpose is a thorough explication of best practices in the field. Furthermore every chapter describes how the techniques discussed apply to Semitic languages. The book covers both statistical approaches to NLP which are dominant across various applications nowadays and the more traditional rule-based approaches that were proven useful for several other application domains. We hope that this book will provide a one-stop-shop'' for all the requisite background and practical advice when building NLP applications for Semitic languages.

It is the study of genetic variation, backed up by language and archaeology, which provides evidence about the spread of farming, the movements of peoples across the globe, the precise links between races - and the sheer unscientific absurdity of racism. This work offers an investigation into the past 100,000 years of human history.

This book provides an overview of a recent and flexible approach to speech synthesis design to develop the first statistical parametric speech synthesizer for Ibibio a West African tonal language. The design precludes the inflexibility encountered when modeling tonal features of the language and can be used for other tonal African languages. Mobile use and technological innovations in developing African nations have exploded. With mobile technology many of the barriers caused by infrastructure issues have vanished. In order to address issues that are unique to African tonal languages the book uses Ibibio as a model. The text reviews the language's speech characteristics required for building the front end components of the design and propose a finite state transducer (FST) useful for modelling the language's tonetactics. The statistical parametric approach discussed in the text implements the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) technique with the goal of creating a generic structure thatlearns the model from the text itself and uses the data-driven approach to input specification.

This volume is an important instalment in the rapidly expanding literature on multilingualism in education and language teaching. Within multilingual studies the volume is highly innovative in its application of the concept theory and perspectives of the Dominant Language Constellations (DLC). The volume reports original research on language education policy and practice which address contemporary DLC-informed multilingualism within family settings and institutional domains such as teacher education primary and secondary schooling and higher education. Deploying the DLC concept as an analytical and conceptual category the chapters explore both personal and institutional life of multilingualism enriched through visualizations. Specific chapters examine issues connected to career opportunities of adults of refugee background in Norway multilingual transnational couples and language teacher preparation in settings as diverse as Austria Canada Finland Iceland Israel and the Basque Country and Catalonia in Spain. This volume is of direct relevance to coursework students and researchers pursuing programs in education linguistics applied linguistics sociolinguistics and multilingualism but will also attract interest in disciplines such as social work and psychology. Additionally the volume will appeal to members of the general public wishing to acquaint themselves with current research and thinking on critical issues in multilingual studies such as learning experiences within and beyond classrooms and aspects of public policy and institutional decision-making processes.
