Abstract:
This paper looks at some of the underlying reasons which might explain the uncertainty surrounding applied linguistics as an academic enquiry. The opening section traces the emergence of the field through its professional associations and publications and identifies second and foreign language (L2) teaching as its primary activity. The succeeding section examines the extent to which L2 pedagogy, as a branch of applied linguistics, is conceived within a theoretical linguistic framework and how this might have changed during a historical period that gave rise to Chomskyan linguistics and the notion of communicative competence. The concluding remarks offer explanations to account for the persistence of linguistic parameters to define applied linguistics

Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to present perspectives in Applied Linguistics (AL) against the background of a historical overview of the field in Brazil. I take the stance of looking at AL as a field of knowledge and as a professional area of research. This point of view directs my reflections towards research-based Applied Linguistics carried out from within in places where it is continuously developed, that is, in universities. Having done this, I locate the Brazilian experience within Latin America.

Abstract:
The aim of this article is to analyze the nature of the historical and contemporary social contexts within which applied linguistics in Africa emerged, and is currently practiced. The article examines the challenges ‘local’ applied Linguistics in Africa is confronted with as it tries to amplify applied linguistic programs emanating from Europe and North America. The article argues that seemingly progressive applied linguistic projects interconnect in consolidating a western view of Africa in postcolonial Africa. In this way these projects end up mirroring the very theories which they seek to challenge.

Abstract:
The article offers a brief overview of the most prominent landmarks in the development of Cognitive Linguistics. It starts with the very inception of the field in the late 70s as a strong reaction against a doctrine of generative linguistics dominating at that time. Later the paper describes the cornerstone theories which were at the onset of this linguistic enterprise. From the very beginning the movement was rather diverse and still cannot be defined as one unified theory; however, there has always been one common factor in its approaches which is the centrality of meaning in language study. The works of the second wave of cognitive linguists, which are also outlined in the article, focused even more increasingly on cognitive functions providing insights into the nature and organization of human thoughts. Nowadays the postulates of Cognitive Linguistics are applied not only to all levels of language study but extended to other scientific areas.

Abstract:
The present study describes the need and importance of Applied Linguistics in present world. It aims to explore all the areas of applied linguists, where it plays a major role. The introductory section describes applied linguistics with its definitions along and references to renowned authors. The second part discovers a brief historical view of applied linguistics that represents it as a distinct field to explore. It portrays about the emergence of this field that is changing with different periods by its professional and academic activities. The third part of a study demonstrates the scope of applied linguistics and its relation to other disciplines. It suggests the future development of applied linguistics with the emerging new scientific disciplines. The fourth section highlights a hot debate of a current scenario that shows the vitality of applied linguists with respect to Linguistic Human Rights (LHRs). The paper aims to explain the importance of applied linguistics around with current perspective of World. Later, it reveals the real situation to violation of Linguistic Human Rights (LHRs) that are specifically contextualized within states of Pakistan and India. Along with this, it also portrays the picture of the future World to a case if no sincere efforts are taken to protect the Linguistic Human Rights, it can prove fatal for researchers and teachers of applied linguistics in general. The final section concludes a study with an over view of applied linguistics to its historical perspective and its relation with other disciplines, specifically with Linguistic Human Rights.

Abstract:
The article provides an overview of the key theoretical, methodological and thematic approaches applied in Serbian historical language studies at the beginning of the 21st century. This is a time in which alongside the philological and (or) structural linguistic research orientation, there are also explanatory studies conducted within the framework of cognitive linguistics and linguistic typology. While philological and structural linguistic descriptions may ask what happened in a language, explanatory (cognitive and typological) studies seek to ask why and how something happened. Explanatory historical linguistic studies, therefore, set out to explain the causes and mechanisms of language changes.

Abstract:
The relationship between phonetics, phonology, and applied linguistics continues to be a paradoxical one. On the one hand, these fields of linguistics lend themselves more readily to applicationthan others since they deal with something more tangible and material than morphology, syntax, semantics, or historical research. On the other hand, there is something esoteric in phonetics and phonology: The objects they handle–sounds, articulatory features, acoustic spectra, stress degrees or melodies–are more elusive and hard to observe for the non-specialist than, say, suffixes, word order, or even meanings. Their terminology is rich and often forbidding, and they may sometimes seem to insist on pedantic distinctions or irrelevant detail (Dieling 1992). The validity of the phonetics–phonology dichotomy itself may be questioned when it comes to their application; however, the two fields continue to develop separately and grow further apart. Thus the application of the “sound sciences”, phonetics and phonology, is partly more advanced and partly more rudimentary than that of other linguistic branches. The purpose of the present survey is to demonstrate the importance of phonology and its applications in TEFL. To do so, this survey will examine current development in both phonetics and phonology, and then suggest implications for instructional contexts.

Abstract:
AbstractThe growing concern for ethics in applied linguistics may be attributed to attempts to stem the rising incidence of ethical lapses in order to ensure that the core ethical principles of (1) respect for persons, (2) yielding optimal benefits while minimizing harm, and (3) justice are preserved. Following a brief historical review of this topic, and building on the growing commitment to carry out ethical applied linguistic research, we map out seven research tasks that will enhance our understanding of how to extend this expanding research agenda. By inviting applied linguists to evaluate their methodological practices and those of their peers, we also argue for the need to develop the ethical dispositions of emerging applied linguists, with a view to create a more robust field.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a literary linguistic study of lexical innovation in fiction. It uses corpus linguistic methods and concepts of morphological theory to develop a new word typology and to examine new words as to their role in directing a reader's imagination and with regard to their frequency and distribution in classic English literature between 1750 and 1923. A 56 million word corpus consisting of a homogenous variety of texts converted from online literature databases serves as the basis for a chronologically structured new word extraction. This is carried out aided by the concordancer programme AntConc. The following three aspects are addressed in this research. The first attempts to explain why certain new words appear newer than other equally novel forms. It demonstrates that the factors influencing a word's novelty effect are wordlike-ness, morpheme content, and formal and semantic analogy. A new word typology is derived from these. A second main section focuses on stylistic aspects. If the words we use influence the way we think, as theorised in the principle of linguistic relativity, then forming new words and reading these should influence the way we think about what they describe. The second element identifies the strategies authors may use to affect their readers' associations through word formation. A third section is a frequency and distribution analysis of the new words extracted, taking historical developments, text mode and form, genre, and new word types into account. It adds quantitative data to the qualitative investigation preceding it, showing that verse and prose, text forms, and genres as well as time periods differ in the new words they produce and providing evidence for the characteristics of each.

Resumo: Este estudo define-se no paradigma qualitativo, realizado por uma pesquisa interpretativa (DENZIN & LINCOLN, 2007), com enfoque sóciohistórico (FREITAS, 2002; JOHNSON, 2009 a e b; JOHNSON; GOLOMBEK, 2011), tendo por objetivo geral interpretar e discutir o agenciamento de uma professora de língua inglesa no desenvolvimento de saber glocal, que atuou em duas escolas municipais de educação integral situadas em comunidades de baixa renda, de uma cidade do interior de São Paulo. A compreensão do exercício agentivo e a construção de saber local requereram partir da práxis docente da professora, buscando-se identificar: o conhecimento-base da profissional (KENNEDY, 1999, VIGOTSKI, 1930/2003), as metodologias de ensino de língua da professora em sua prática (KUMARAVADIVELU, 2006), a atitude agentiva da professora para a construção de saber local em sua prática (GIDDENS, 1989/2009; BANDURA, 2006; WERTSCH, TULVISTE, HANGSTROM, 1993). Além disso, investigar a postura da professora frente às necessidades locais de inglês e seus desdobramentos (CANAGARAJAH, 2005). Os procedimentos de geração de dados foram os de base etnográfica (ANDRÉ, 1995), o método que orienta esta pesquisa é o materialismo histórico-dialético (TRIVIÑOS, 1987/2008; MARX, 1845/2007; 1867/1983; 1859/1982; MARX e ENGELS, 1845/2007) e a técnica de tratamento de dados é a análise de conteúdo (MYNAIO, 2008; BARDIN, 1979; TRIVIÑOS, 1987/2008). Ao final da interpretação dos dados, entendeu-se que na prática da participante foi privilegiado o uso de um saber global, sem gerar o desenvolvimento de um saber local que siga uma ruptura com o saber global, conforme reza a literatura especializada. Entretanto, a prática da participante foi permeada por um exercício de agência humana mediada, na inter-relação dos elementos humanos, materiais e institucionais constitutivos de seu contexto de ação docente, construídos sócio-historicamente.

Abstract: This work is grounded on the qualitative paradigm, elaborated through an interpretative research with a sociocultural focus. This research aims to interpret and discuss the agency of an English language teacher in the development of local knowledge, who has taught in two full time municipal schools located in low income communities, in a city of the São Paulo State. The comprehension of the agentive exercise and the local knowledge construction has required starting from the teaching praxis of the participant, searching for identifying her knowledge-base, her English teaching methodologies and her agentive attitude for the construction of local knowledge in the teaching practice. Besides, the attitude of the teacher before English language local necessities and its developments were investigated. The data generation procedures followed the ethnographic basis. This study is oriented by the historical dialectical materialism method and the technique for the data treatment is the content analysis. As a result, data interpretation has showed that the participant prioritized the usage of a global knowledge, without generating a local knowledge which means a rupture with the global knowledge, as it is preached by specialized literature. Nevertheless, the teacher's practice was all pervaded by a mediated human agency exercise in the interrelation between the human, material and institutional constitutive elements in her teaching action context. Such elements can only be understood in the historical, social, political, economic dynamics, where the teacher's action took place: in the concrete and singular experience of teaching education and of professional practice with its contradictory elements. Last but not least, the present research shows the lack of formal and practical knowledge about the notion of development of local knowledge in the education and in the teaching action of an English teacher which, probably, can also be in other...

Abstract:
abstract: The English language is taught all over the world and changes immensely from place to place. As such, both L1 and L2 English Language Users all utilize English as a tool for creating meaning in their existence and to also form perspectives on how the language ought to be. What is interesting about this is that the language being used to do that is one birthed from a culture that many English speakers across the globe are separated from; that is, Anglo-Saxon culture. Since learning and using language is also learning and participating in culture the question is, then how separated are American English speakers from that of the culture that created the language they speak? Does Anglo-Saxon culture impact how worldviews are formed in contemporary English speakers? I propose that the first step to finding some answers is by investigating the language ideologies that American English speakers have through the inquiry of meanings that they prescribe to English words that derive from Old English and subsequently have Germanic origins. The following work details a study examining the language attitudes of American English speakers in hopes of shedding new light on these questions.

Abstract:
Rather than spending their careers trying to prove universal laws or creating something proven but underwhelming, scientists build manageable models. ‘Model-building’ focuses on how this approach can be applied to philosophy. Model-building is an alternative to philosophy’s historical reliance on counterexamples, which tends towards falsification or artificiality. Returning to linguistics, Rudolf Carnap built a complete system of semantics for an artificial formal language, thus discovering new insights about language itself. Where good models are available, we may get our best results by using several methods as our hypothesis becomes stronger if they are independently pulling in the right direction. The model-building methodology’s potential is only just being realized.

This volume focuses on a range of topics and studies that address the notion of plurilingualism and multilingual identity in computer-mediated language learning (CALL) spaces. Interest in digital multilingual identity in the fields of applied linguistics and language education has been growing exponentially in recent years. New theoretical assumptions and recent global challenges have urged researchers to problematize the traditional notion of virtual identity in the face of increased virtual connectedness and the hybridization of transcultural and translingual practices. The chapters in this collection contribute to this fast-growing body of interdisciplinary research, featuring conceptual papers and research studies of identity performance and multilingual communication in highly complexified digitally mediated social platforms. The volume seeks to (a) contextualize digital multilingual communication as it pertains to language learning and teaching via a historical and conceptual overview of the multilingual movement in technologically mediated SLA; (b) offer in-depth explorations of multilingual practices and digital affordances that affect language learner identities beyond the classroom context, (c) fill the research void by exploring empirically the critical aspects of multilingual identity deployment in digital contexts where language learners actively participate in translingual and plurilingual practices, and (d) illustrate new ways of evaluating and adapting teaching practices to accommodate multilingual subjects, and reflect the increasingly hyperlingual nature of digital communication.

Abstract:
Ideology is a social imagination of world's truth that can be shaped and eventually corrected before it becomes historically dangerous. The methodology of linguistic analysis offers the essential approach to a positive resolution of this problem because it suggests how to prevent risky ideologies, or how to change them once they are established. The suggested linguistic strategies refer, particularly, to the textual analysis of meaning as the key to discover the imaginative value of words in a culture from which the people's mentality derives. Cultural interventions in this field of social life are, obviously, very important to foster mutual understanding, welfare, and world peace.

Abstract:
Comparative phylogenetic analyses based on linguistic data are useful for reconstructing the cultural evolution of recent expansions of humans around the world. It is an exciting time for phylogenetic comparative studies in lowland South America given the emergence of more comprehensive ethnolinguistic datasets. Phylogenetic methods can now be applied to more lowland language families to facilitate the study of pre-historical population expansions and cultural variation. This chapter investigates phylogenetic relationships among the six major lowland South American language families using structural linguistic data. Two cultural traits that are likely to have deep evolutionary histories that extend back to last common ancestors of several large language families include uxorilocal postmarital residence (women continue to live near natal families after marriage) and partible paternity beliefs (conception belief that multiple men can be co-genitors of one child). The Carib-Pano-Tupi-Jê clade is mostly uxorilocal with partible paternity beliefs in thirty-eight of forty-three societies.

Abstract:
Like other genres of folk literature, fairy tales of Vietnamese ethnicity with miraculous character systems become strongly influenced by Southeast Asia’s historical-cultural region. Apart from being influenced by farming, Buddhism, Confucianism, urbanism, Vietnamese fairy tales are deeply influenced by ethno-linguistic elements. Consequently, fairy tales do not preserve their root identities, but shift and emerge over time. The study investigates and classifies the miraculous tales of peoples of Vietnam with strange characters (fairies, gods, Buddha, devils) in linguistic and ethnographic groups, and in high-to-low ratios. Here the study expands on, evaluates, correlates, and differentiates global miraculous characters, and describes influences of creation of miraculous characters in these fairy tales. The author affirms the value of this character system within the fairy tales, and develops conceptions of global aesthetic views. To conduct the research, the author applies statistical methods, documentary surveys, type comparison methods, systematic approaches, synthetic analysis methods, and interdisciplinary methods (cultural studies, ethnography, psychoanalysis). The author conducted a reading of and referring to the miraculous fairy tales of the peoples of Vietnam with strange characters. 250 fairy tales were selected from 32 ethnic groups of Vietnam, which have the most types of miraculous characters, classifying these according to respective language groups, through an ethnography. The author compares sources to determine characteristics of each miraculous character, and employs system methods to understand the components of characters. The author analyzes and evaluates the results based on the results of the survey and classification. Within the framework of the article, the author focuses on the following two issues; some general features of the geographical conditions and history of Vietnam in the context of Southeast Asia’s ancient and medieval periods were observed; a survey was conducted of results of virtual characters in the fairy tales of Vietnam from the perspective of language, yet accomplished through an ethnography. The results of the study indicate a calculation and quantification of magical characters in the fairy tales of Vietnamese. This study contributes to the field of Linguistic Anthropology in that it presents the first work to address the system of virtual characters in the fairy tales of Vietnam in terms of language, while it surveys different types of material, origins formed, and so forth.
