Cambridge University Press The Dyirbal Language of North Queensland 9
Book SynopsisOriginally published in 1972, this study is dedicated to the surviving speakers of the Dyirbal, Giramay and Mamu dialects. For more than ten thousand years they lived in harmony with each other and with their environment. Over one hundred years ago many of them were shot and poisoned by European invaders. Those allowed to survive have been barely tolerated tenants on their own lands, and have had their beliefs, habits and language help up to ridicule and scorn. In the last decade they have seen their remaining forests taken and cleared by an American company, with the destruction of sites whose remembered antiquity is many thousands of years older than the furthest event in the shallow history of their desecrators. The survivors of the three tribes have stood up to these diversities with dignity and humour. They continue to look forward to the day when they may again be allowed to live in peaceful possession of some of their own lands, and may be accorded a respect that they have been Table of ContentsPreface; 1.

Cambridge University Press The Cambridge Handbook of Language Contact
Book SynopsisLanguage contact - the linguistic and social outcomes of two or more languages coming into contact with each other - has been pervasive in human history. However, where histories of language contact are comparable, experiences of migrant populations have been only similar, not identical. Given this, how does language contact work? With contributions from an international team of scholars, this Handbook - the first in a two-volume set - delves into this question from multiple perspectives and provides state-of-the-art research on population movement and language contact and change. It begins with an overview of how language contact as a research area has evolved since the late 19th century. The chapters then cover various processes and theoretical issues associated with population movement and language contact worldwide. It is essential reading for anybody interested in the dynamics of social interactions in diverse contact settings and how the changing ecologies influence the linguistic outcomes.

Book SynopsisBitch is a bitch of a word. It used to be a straightforward insult, but today ? after so many variations and efforts to reject or reclaim the word ? it''s not always entirely clear what it means. Bitch is a chameleon. There are good bitches and bad bitches; sexy bitches and psycho bitches; boss bitches and even perfect bitches. This eye-opening deep-dive account takes us on a journey spanning a millennium, from its humble beginnings as a word for a female dog through to its myriad meanings today, proving that sometimes you can teach an old dog new tricks. It traces the colorful history and ever-changing meaning of this powerful and controversial word, and its relevance within broader issues of feminism, gender, race, and sexuality. Despite centuries of censorship and attempts to ban it, bitch has stood the test of time. You may wonder: is the word going away anytime soon? Bitch, please.

Taylor & Francis The Renaissance of Women Translators in
Book SynopsisThis volume offers an in-depth exploration of the translation activity of Greek women translators in the nineteenth century, illuminating the role of translation as a means of resistance against sociocultural norms and the enduring impact of their work on the rise of feminism in Greece.Drawing on frameworks from the sociology of translation, the book situates the practices and behaviours of women translators within this specific sociocultural and historical context to underscore the importance of translation in their lives and society. Drawing on authentic texts, including dedication letters and prologues, Misiou unpacks the discourses, themes, strategies, and dialogues individual translators employed to affirm a sense of agency in their claims to education and civil rights, their role in cultural life as producers of texts, and to give greater voice to the wider community of women translators.

It attempts to break out of the limits of the dictionary-ontology paradigm and set British English dictionary-making and research against a broader background of socio-cultural observations, thus relating the development of English lexicography to changes in English, accomplishments in English linguistics, social and cultural progress, and advances in science and technology.It unfolds a vivid, coherent and complete picture of how English dictionary-making develops from its archetype to the prescriptive, the historical, the descriptive and finally to the cognitive model, how it interrelates to the course of the development of a nation''s culture and the historical growth of its lexicographical culture, as well as how EnTable of ContentsIntroductionChapter One The Latin roots in English dictionaries and the inception of English lexicographical cultureChapter Two The early development of English bilingual lexicography and its deviation from Latin traditionsChapter Three The bourgeoning of English monolingual dictionary paradigm and the extension of bilingual dictionary traditions in the 17th century Chapter Four The termination of hard-word traditions in English lexicography and its pursuit of prescriptivismChapter Five The European philological traditions and the creation of the diachronic dictionary paradigm in the 19th century Chapter Six The transformation of lexicographical traditions and the prosperity of British English lexicographyChapter Seven English lexicography–accomplishments, developments and prospects Major References Major referenced websitesIndex of Lexicographers

Taylor & Francis Ltd Loanwords and Japanese Identity
Book SynopsisLoanwords and Japanese Identity: Inundating or Absorbed? provides an in-depth examination of public discussions on lexical borrowing in the Japanese language. The main objective of this book is to explore the relationship between language and identity through an analysis of public attitudes towards foreign loanwords in contemporary Japanese society. In particular, the book uncovers the process by which language is conceived of as a symbol of national identity by examining an animated newspaper controversy over the use of foreign loanwords. The book concludes that the fierce debate over the use of loanwords can be understood as a particular manifestation of the ongoing (re-)negotiation of Japanese national identity.This book will appeal to scholars and students in sociolinguistics, translation studies, and discourse analysis, while its cultural and geographic focus will attract readers in Japanese studies and East Asian studies.Table of ContentsChapter 1: Loanwords in Japan1.1 Western Loanwords and Japan Today1.2 What are Gairaigo and Katakanago? 1.3 Gairaigo Controversies1.4 Key Questions and Focal PointsChapter 2: For or Against?2.1 Language and Identity2.2: Public Opinions2.3: Advantages and Disadvantages2.4: Why the Polemic? 2.5: Gairaigo and Nihongo Dichotomy2.6: Nihongo and KokugoChapter 3: Inundating or Absorbed?3.1: Textual Data3.2: Time Frame3.3: Method of Analysis3.4: Recurrent Verbs3.5: ImplicationsChapter 4: Japanese or Foreign?4.1: Nihongo, the Japanese language, and Gairaigo, Loanwords4.2: Analysis4.3: SummaryChapter 5: What Kind of Loanwords?5.1: Loanwords as ‘Outside Within’5.2: Metaphors5.3: Contrasts5.4: Evolution of Japanese IdentitiesChapter 6: Loanwords and Identity in the Age of Diversity6.1: French Discourse on Loanwords6.2: Comparative Observations6.3: Use of Katakana for Japanese Loanwords Abroad6.4: From the ‘Outside Within’ to the ‘New Wild’

Taylor & Francis Ltd Linguistics for Translators
Book SynopsisThis engaging and accessible textbook, by two leading experts, is a carefully crafted introduction to linguistics for translators, students, and researchers of translation.Starting with basic concepts and gradually moving readers to the central questions in different branches of linguistics, examples are drawn from English and many other languages, including German, Arabic, Kurdish, Swahili, French, and Chinese. The key areas of linguistics are covered from morphology and syntax to semantics, pragmatics, discourse analysis, stylistics, sociolinguistics, and cognitive linguistics. Striking a balance between theoretical developments and empirical investigation, readers gain both a comprehensive overview of linguistics and how it informs their work in translation and learn how to argue for analysis and annotate their own answers and translations academically. Each chapter provides the reader with an overview outlining the main points and technical words used in the chapter as well as illustrative examples, recommended readings, and resources and activities to test knowledge. This is the ideal textbook for undergraduate and postgraduate students of translation in Translation Studies, Linguistics, and Modern languages.Trade ReviewYet another success story in the world of academic publishing. Linguistics for Translators is a major undertaking. To reconcile the two perspectives (sentence and text linguistics) and come up with a product relevant to both translator and linguist, is a mammoth task, executed seamlessly and most effectively.Emeritus Professor Basil Hatim, American University of Sharjah, UAELinguistics for Translators is a valuable addition to a field where theory and practice are closely intertwined. The authors review a wide range of linguistic concepts that are of relevance for the translator and illustrate them with clear, up-to-date examples in many languages. Frequent questions and tasks test and enhance the reader’s understanding.Jeremy Munday, Professor Emeritus in Translation Studies, University of Leeds, UKAlmanna and House adopt a perspective in their Linguistics for Translators which shows convincingly that systematic knowledge of language is a fascinating and necessary resource for understanding translation. They maintain contact with questions arising in translation studies through their valuable linguistic orientation with a strong pedagogical focus. A timely and most welcome contribution to the field.Univ.-Prof. Dr. Erich Steiner (i.R./ em.), Translation Studies Englisch, Saarland University, Dept. of Language Science and Technology.Linguistics for Translators by Almanna and House provides a ground-breaking contribution to translation studies.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Literacy Autobiographies from the Global South
Book SynopsisDrawing on autoethnographic research on literacy autobiographies from a Chinese EFL writing context, this book provides unique insights into literacy, voice, translingualism, and critical pedagogy from a Global South perspective. The book presents literacy autobiographies as a cultural tool for analyzing and refashioning learners' and teachers' sense of self in ever-expanding dialogical spaces. In addition to highlighting teachers' own stories around autoethnographies and translanguaging, it showcases literacy autobiographies from Chinese students themselves. The book theorizes the Global South as an ontological positioning that challenges colonial mindsets and practices concerning literacy, language learning, and narratives. It argues that literacy autobiographies from a Global South perspective can be reimagined as critical pedagogy for EFL writing teaching and learning, as well as teacher development.Validating and expanding student voices by presenting these literaTrade Review"Shizhou Yang has taken an innovative Global South perspective on literacy autobiographies with stories by himself as an EFL writing teacher as well as those by his students from China in diverse transnational contexts. The result is a fascinating and thought-provoking account that not only contributes to theoretical discussions of concepts such as critical pedagogy, translanguaging, and writing ecology, but also to pedagogical practices that will truly enable and empower the learners, and the teachers, to develop their own voices. As such, it is a major contribution to translingual and decolonising turn in language education research."Professor Li Wei, Director & Dean, UCL Institute of Education, University College London, UK.Like his cicada after its long formation,Shizhou emerges with translingual poetryBreaking free from the global and colonizingPressures against his voice in literacy.Not alone, he emerges with his whole musical army—His students—with their own translingual story.But these cicadas won’t die too quickly;Their voices will transform the dominant pedagogy. Suresh Canagarajah, Edwin Erle Sparks Professor, Pennsylvania State University "This is a captivating book about the liberating intellectual journey of Shizhou Yang, who has found his voice and identity as a multilingual scholar through writing his own literacy autobiography. Also featuring the autobiographical writing of the author’s students situated in a marginalized context, the book celebrates the power of literacy autobiography as an undervalued genre in EFL contexts, demonstrating how it is intertwined with identity work, voice development, and knowledge creation. I highly recommend the book to everyone."Icy Lee, Professor, Faculty of Education, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, China"Featuring literacy autobiography and poetic inquiry as methodology, this book has provided EFL teachers and students with a proven way to gain liberation from the shackles of modernism and neoliberalism. It is a must-read for anyone who is keen in search for Southern epistemologies in English language teaching."

Cambridge University Press Grammar in Everyday Talk Building Responsive Actions 31 Studies in Interactional Sociolinguistics Series Number 31
Book SynopsisDrawing on everyday telephone and video interactions, this book surveys how English speakers use grammar to formulate responses in ordinary conversation. The authors show that speakers build their responses in a variety of ways: the responses can be longer or shorter, repetitive or not, and can be uttered with different intonational 'melodies'. Focusing on four sequence types: responses to questions ('What time are we leaving?' - 'Seven'), responses to informings ('The May Company are sure having a big sale' - 'Are they?'), responses to assessments ('Track walking is so boring. Even with headphones' - 'It is'), and responses to requests ('Please don't tell Adeline' - 'Oh no I won't say anything'), they argue that an interactional approach holds the key to explaining why some types of utterances in English conversation seem to have something 'missing' and others seem overly wordy.Trade Review'[This book] challenges serious scholars of language and social interaction with a rich, new and exquisitely contextual account of the work people do through their responses in real-time social interaction. Findings presented in the book are fully data-driven and compel us to critically re-envision the traditionally taken-for-granted notions that some utterances are 'elliptical' or 'non-sentential'. [The authors] demonstrate that response formats are artfully and precisely fitted to their contexts, and that the attested composition of utterances results from the limited range of meaning-making potentials opened up in the course of developing sequences of action. The presentation of findings, representing a new standard of methodological and theoretical integrity, is tightly articulated with forty years of research on language form and interactional sequence. Future research on sequence organization and action formats must take this book as a fundamental reference point, including the cross-linguistic expansion of this project, which the authors enthusiastically invite.' Cecilia E. Ford, University of Wisconsin, Madison'This brilliant book brings important new points of emphasis to the study of language and social action. Its groundbreaking analyses of human agency in responding are a very welcome contribution.' N. J. Enfield, University of Sydney'Based on naturally occurring video and telephone conversations, Grammar in Everyday Talk explores the morphosyntactic and prosodic design of responsive actions. It also uncovers the sequential contexts in which minimal and expanded responses are routinely found, and in which sequential and interactional circumstances speakers might be motivated to choose one rather than the other. It is a pioneering work which focuses on the interaction between prosody and syntax in the way English speakers build response.' Zhou Xiao-jun, Zhejiang University'All in all, this study provides a new 'paradigm' that is quite different from the one taken up in most previous studies about grammar, in which a paradigm is static, abstract, and exists outside of any context of use. … This book is highly recommended for scholars working in the field of syntax, discourse analysis, social linguistics and pragmatics.' Zhou Xiao-jun, Journal of Language and PoliticsTable of Contents1. Introduction; 2. Responses in information-seeking sequences with 'question-word interrogatives'; 3. Responses in informing sequences; 4. Sequences with assessment responses; 5. Responses in request-for-action sequences; 6. Conclusions.

Cambridge University Press Heritage Languages and their Speakers
Book SynopsisThis book provides a pioneering introduction to heritage languages and their speakers, written by one of the founders of this new field. Using examples from a wide range of languages, it covers all the main components of grammar, including phonetics and phonology, morphology and morphosyntax, semantics and pragmatics, and shows easy familiarity with approaches ranging from formal grammar to typology, from sociolinguistics to child language acquisition and other relevant aspects of psycholinguistics. The book offers analysis of resilient and vulnerable domains in heritage languages, with a special emphasis on recurrent structural properties that occur across multiple heritage languages. It is explicit about instances where, based on our current knowledge, we are unable to reach a clear decision on a particular claim or analytical point, and therefore provides a much-needed resource for future research.Trade Review'Maria Polinsky has written a comprehensive and authoritative work that will be an indispensable point of reference for future research on heritage languages. Her book takes a very detailed look at heritage languages, but it never loses sight of a central question for all linguists: what does it mean to be a speaker of a language?' Grant Goodall, University of California, San Diego'This volume is thorough, comprehensive, and multifaceted, capturing the uniqueness, complexities and subtleties that characterize heritage language. A plethora of concrete research evidence from numerous languages is provided to illustrate the points made.' Mitsuyo Sakamoto, LINGUIST ListTable of Contents1. Introduction; 2. Heritage English; 3. How to study heritage speakers: some observations on the methodologies and approaches; 4. Phonetics and phonology; 5. Morphology and morphosyntax; 6. Syntax; 7. Semantics and pragmatics; 8.
