Abstract:

abstractIt is well established that context plays a fundamental role in how we learn and use language. Here we explore how context links short-term language use with the long-term emergence of different types of language system. Using an iterated learning model of cultural transmission, the current study experimentally investigates the role of the communicative situation in which an utterance is produced (situational context) and how it influences the emergence of three types of linguistic systems: underspecified languages (where only some dimensions of meaning are encoded linguistically), hol

Abstract:

This study investigates the interplay between pragmatic constraints and syntactic structures in the English language, emphasizing how context influences language use. Through a qualitative literature review, the research highlights the significant role of pragmatic considerations in shaping syntactic choices. Key findings reveal that speakers modify their syntactic structures to fulfill communicative goals, manage politeness, and emphasize information based on contextual cues. Furthermore, the analysis examines cross-linguistic perspectives, demonstrating the variability of these influences ac

Abstract:

This study delves into the intricate relationship between contextual and lexical synonymy, exploring their role in shaping meaning and communication. Contextual synonymy, a dynamic linguistic phenomenon, arises from the interplay of words within specific contexts. As words are embedded in particular linguistic environments, their meanings can shift and evolve, leading to the emergence of contextual synonyms. This flexibility allows for nuanced expression and enables speakers and writers to adapt their language to specific communicative goals. Lexical synonymy refers to the semantic similarity

This article draws attention to language choice and language use of Austrian bi- and multilingual school children.

Researchers have recently proposed that for certain applications it is advantageous to use functional languages whose type systems are based upon linear logic: so-called linear functional languages. In this paper we develop reasoning techniques for programs in a linear functional language, linPCF, based on their operational behaviour. The principal theorem of this paper is to show that contextual equivalence of linPCF programs can be characterised coinductively. This characterisation provides a tractable method for reasoning about contextual equivalence, and is used in three ways:[bull ] A num

Film subtitles in different languages offer a convenient solution because the situations of communication between film characters can serve as comparative concepts.

Abstract:

Abstract On the face of it, it appears that the explicitation of contextual knowledge is consistent with Toury’s (1995) norm of acceptability rather than his norm of adequacy. This is because this type of explicitation, which seeks to bridge the gap in readers’ contextual knowledge, enhances readability and is directed towards the target audience. However, in this article I argue that the use of this type of explicitation actually demonstrates an awareness of the importance of adhering to the source text, and may thus be aligned with adequacy norms. To support the argument, I show that this ty

Abstract:

This paper discusses a number of differences between English and Persian in the area of speech acts and links them with different cultural values and norms. The Persian speakers’ use of face-keeping strategies in reaction to complaints was compared with American English speakers’ performance. The most frequent face- saving strategy used by both groups in reaction to complaints was the apology speech act. Therefore, a cross-cultural comparison in the realization patterns of the apology speech acts between the two languages was performed. A detailed analysis of the use of the illocutionary force

Abstract:

This scrutiny deals with the contextual interpretation of central determiners in Kinyarwanda, a Bantu language spoken in the Great Lakes region, specifically in the Republic of Rwanda. It particularly tackles the case of possessives. It demonstrates that the pragmatic analysis of possessives in Kinyarwanda can be conceived under the notions of reference, definiteness, deixis, implicature, presupposition, and speech act. It starts by showing how Kinyarwanda possessives are used to point out referred entities, including anaphoric and cataphoric relationships. It also attests to how possessives i

Abstract:

This paper examines communicative language teaching (CLT) and its significance in terms of language teaching and learning. The actual purpose of the paper is to explore the causes of failure of CLT in Pakistan and other developing countries in order to suggest the ways to make it successfully effective in the context. It is found that contextual problems such as overuse of traditional methods of teaching such as lecturing and large classes always come into clash with the use of CLT in the developing countries such as Pakistan because CLT is in fact a method developed and used in the developed

Abstract This study examined the development of social-pragmatic comprehension in 170 Finnish four- to eight-year-old children. The children were asked to respond to socially and contextually demanding questions targeting their social-pragmatic language processing, and to explain their correct answers in order to elicit their awareness of how they had derived the answers from the context. The results showed that the number of correct answers increased especially between the ages of four and seven years. We found that questions demanding contextual processing without mind-reading were the easie

Abstract:

Braine's (1963) model of language development emphasizes the use of auditory or temporal processing so verbal contextual generalization can be produced. Recent literature on auditory or temporal processing skills of children with learning disabilities led to the prediction that these children would find it much more difficult to generalize contextually than would children without learning disabilities. The present study did not support this prediction. The implications were discussed in view of research on auditory or temporal processing skills of children with learning disabilities.

This study explores the knowledge and perceptions that language teachers hold of the implementation of the communicative language teaching approach in their teaching context, a language centre of a public university in central Mexico. To collect data, a questionnaire was disseminated among teachers of different languages including Spanish, Nahuatl, Italian, German, French, and English. Data on teachers’ knowledge of the approach were included to discuss the reported use of CLT in their teaching activities. Then, inferences were made based on the contextual elements surrounding each language. T

Abstract:

Contextual definitions within the framework of modern logics and philosophy of science are widely used and explained. Moreover, they have acquired an independent epistemological meaning, along with other types of definitions. However, in the humanities, their applicability has been questioned and challenged many times. The author, on the contrary, substantiates the premise that the effectiveness of contextual definitions, in particular in the legal language, is not lower, and sometimes even much higher than the effectiveness of generic definitions.

Figurative language is vocabulary that is used creatively, departing from its literal meaning. Song is one of the resources used by language learners to fill in the gaps between one another. This study was done for non-native speakers of foreign languages who might have trouble understanding figurative language. Finding the most common figurative language among the three languages is the goal of this study. Perrine's theory is applied in this study to analyze the kind of figurative language. Furthermore, Tilly's theory was applied to analyze the figurative language's contextual meaning. The ty

With the globalization of the economy, the fuzzy language in business English negotiations is widely used. The motivation for negotiators to use fuzzy language is not to hide information, but to convey information more clearly. This article attempts to divide business negotiations into three stages: the beginning, the process, and the end. With fuzzy language in business negotiation as a corpus, this paper studies how people adapt to different contextual factors to regulate fuzzy language in the process of business English negotiations under the guidance of relevance theory so as to achieve th
