Palabras clave: cultura popular; gaélico; gallego; música; tradición Abstract This study takes a contrastive approach to the situation of Galician and Irish Gaelic in the first third of the twentieth century, and to traditional music in particular. It is a period of significant interest in both Galiza and Ireland in terms of the cultural, political and social climate. Indeed, the current situations of the two countries can hardly be understood without taking these crucial years into consideration.

  • How to Get Published in ESOL and Applied Linguistics Serials
    How to Get Published in TESOL and Applied Linguistics Serials TESOL Convention & Exhibit (TESOL 2016 Baltimore) Applied Linguistics Editor(s): John Hellermann & Anna Mauranen Editor/Journal E-mail: [email protected] Journal URL: http://applij.oxfordjournals.org/ Journal description: Applied Linguistics publishes research into language with relevance to real-world problems. The journal is keen to help make connections between fields, theories, research methods, and scholarly discourses, and welcomes contributions which critically reflect on current practices in applied linguistic research. It promotes scholarly and scientific discussion of issues that unite or divide scholars in applied linguistics. It is less interested in the ad hoc solution of particular problems and more interested in the handling of problems in a principled way by reference to theoretical studies. Applied linguistics is viewed not only as the relation between theory and practice, but also as the study of language and language-related problems in specific situations in which people use and learn languages. Within this framework the journal welcomes contributions in such areas of current enquiry as: bilingualism and multilingualism; computer-mediated communication; conversation analysis; corpus linguistics; critical discourse analysis; deaf linguistics; discourse analysis and pragmatics; first and additional language learning, teaching, and use; forensic linguistics; language assessment; language planning and policies; language for special purposes; lexicography; literacies; multimodal communication; rhetoric and stylistics; and translation. The journal welcomes both reports of original research and conceptual articles. The Journal’s Forum section is intended to enhance debate between authors and the wider community of applied linguists (see Editorial in 22/1) and affords a quicker turnaround time for short pieces.

  • In Galicia, Spain (1860-1936)
    Finisterra, XXXIII, 65, 1998, pp. 117-128 SUBSTATE NATION-BUILDING AND GEOGRAPHICAL REPRESENTATIONS OF ‘THE OTHER’ IN GALICIA, SPAIN (1860-1936) JACOBO GARCÍA -ÁLVAREZ 1 Abstract: The ‘social construction’ of otherness and, broadly speaking, the ideological-political use of ‘external’ socio-spatial referents have become important topics in contemporary studies on territorial identities, nationalisms and nation-building processes, geography included. After some brief, introductory theoretical reflections, this paper examines the contribution of geographical discourses, arguments and images, sensu lato , in the definition of the external socio-spatial identity referents of Galician nationalism in Spain, during the period 1860-1936. In this discourse Castile was typically represented as ‘the other’ (the negative, opposition referent), against which Galician identity was mobilised, whereas Portugal, on the one hand, together with Ireland and the so-called ‘Atlantic-Celtic nationalities’, on the other hand, were positively constructed as integrative and emulation referents. Key-words : Nationalism, nation-building, socio-spatial identities, external territorial referents, otherness, Spain, Galicia, Risco, Otero Pedrayo, Portugal, Atlantism, pan-Celtism. Résumé: LA CONSTRUCTION D ’UN NATIONALISME SOUS -ETATIQUE ET LES REPRESENTATIONS GEOGRAPHIQUES DE “L’A UTRE ” EN GALICE , E SPAGNE (1860-1936) – La formation de toute identité est un processus dialectique et dualiste, en tant qu’il implique la manipulation et la mobilisation de la “différence”

  • Teaching Lexicography As a University Course: Theoretical, Practical and Critical Considerations
    http://lexikos.journals.ac.za; https://doi.org/10.5788/30-1-1597 Teaching Lexicography as a University Course: Theoretical, Practical and Critical Considerations Tvrtko Prćić, Department of English, Faculty of Philosophy, University of Novi Sad, Serbia ([email protected]) Abstract: This paper offers an account of a university course in Lexicography, designed par- ticularly for advanced EFL students. The discussion and accompanying material derive from around fifteen years of the author's experience in developing and teaching this course. The aims of the paper are twofold: firstly, to draw attention to the fact that lexicography today is no longer just 'the art and craft of' dictionary making of yesteryear but a fully-fledged applied linguistic disci- pline, with its own theory, methodology and practice, some of which is teachable as a dedicated academic subject; and secondly, to encourage the teaching of practical and theoretical lexicography to university students by putting forward concrete proposals. The exposition is divided into five parts, as follows: Section 1 brings some opening remarks, including that on the scientific status of lexicography; Section 2 reviews theoretical aspects regarding the design of this course; Section 3 describes practical aspects regarding the implementation of the course; Section 4 examines critical aspects regarding the evaluation of the course; and Section 5 recapitulates the main points of the paper and projects the modifications to the course in the future. Keywords: LEXICOGRAPHY AS A UNIVERSITY COURSE, TEACHING LEXICOGRAPHY, EFL UNIVERSITY STUDENTS, THEORETICAL CONSIDERATIONS, DESIGN OF THE COURSE, PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS, IMPLEMENTATION OF THE COURSE, CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS, EVALUATION OF THE COURSE Opsomming: Die onderrig van leksikografie as universiteitskursus: Teore- tiese, praktiese en kritiese oorwegings.

  • The Northwest European Phonological Area New Approaches to an Old Problem
    The northwest European phonological area New approaches to an old problem Pavel Iosad The University of Edinburgh [email protected] Linguistic Circle 29th September 2016 Outline • A Northern European Sprachbund? • Three case studies: – Preaspiration – Tonogenesis out of syllable counts – Sonorant pre-occlusion • Prosodic structure as the common denominator • Revisiting contact: what does it take? 1 Nordeuropäische Lautgeographie 1.1 Phonological connections Trubetzkoy: Proposition 16 • Trubetzkoy (1928): phonology isn’t very important for defining a Sprachbund Gruppen, bestehend aus Sprachen, die eine grosse Ähnlichkeit in syntakti- scher Hinsicht, eine Ähnlichkeit in den Grundsätzen des morphologischen Baus aufweisen, und eine grosse Anzahl gemeinsamer Kulturwörter bieten, manchmal auch äussere Ähnlichkeit im Bestande der Lautsysteme,—dabei aber keine gemeinsame Elementarwörter besitzen—solche Sprachgrupper nennen wir Sprachbünde (emphasis mine) ¹ ¹‘We call language areas (Sprachbünde) groups that consist of languages showing a large similarity in syn- tactic terms, a similarity in the basics of morphological structure and a large number of common cultural vocabulary — sometimes also a superficial similarity in their sound inventories — without, however, sharing core vocabulary.’ 1 Jakobson: Über die phonologischen Sprachbünde • Jakobson (1931): a Baltic Sprachbund exists, defined by ‘tonality’ Ebenso bilden die Sprachen des Baltikums einen Sprachbund, den die Poly- tonie kennzeichnet; hierher gehören: das Schwedische, das Norwegische mit Ausnahme der nordwestlichen Mundarten, die meisten dänischen Dialekte, einige norddeutsche Mundarten, das Nordkaschubische, das Litauische und Lettische, das Livische und Estnische. In den meisten Sprachen und Mund- arten dieses Bundes ist die Tonverlaufkorrelation und in den übrigen ihre Ab- änderung, die Tonbruchkorrelation, vorhanden.

  • Effective Foreign Language Teaching: a Matter of Iranian Students’ and Teachers’ Beliefs
    www.ccsenet.org/elt English Language Teaching Vol. 4, No. 2; June 2011 Effective Foreign Language Teaching: a Matter of Iranian Students’ and Teachers’ Beliefs Mahyar Ganjabi Payamenoor University Tel: 98-9127-049-132 E-mail: [email protected] Received: December 31, 2010 Accepted: January 28, 2011 doi:10.5539/elt.v4n2p46 Abstract This paper reports on a study that investigated the beliefs about language learning of 120 Iranian EFL students and 16 EFL teachers. The primary aim of the study was to reveal whether there was any difference between the beliefs of Iranian students and teachers regarding different aspects of language learning such as grammar teaching, error correction, culture, target language use, computer-based technology, communicative language teaching strategies and assessment. Data were collected using a 24-item questionnaire. It was concluded that there were some differences between the Iranian students’ and teachers’ beliefs regarding what procedures were most effective in bringing about language learning. Discussion of the findings and implications for further research are also articulated. Keywords: Effective language teaching, Teachers’ beliefs, Students’ beliefs 1. Introduction Language practitioners and researchers have already recognized that teachers and their agendas do not have a complete control over what learners learn from English language courses (Allwright, 1984 as cited in Breen, 2001a; Salimani, 2001). The recent emphasis on the holistic approaches to language learning have brought into our focus the fact that learners are not just cognitive beings, that is, they do not approach the task of language learning merely from the cognitive window (Breen, 2001b). But learners are multidimensional beings; they are a combination of a bulk of different variables which help them to learn whatever they are learning in the best possible way.

These are used in figurine notation, a common variation on algebraic notation in which pieces are represented in running text using the same symbols as are found in diagrams. While the symbols already encoded in Unicode are sufficient for use in the orthodox game, they are insufficient for many chess problems and variant games, which make use of extended sets. 1. Fairy chess problems The presentation of chess positions as puzzles to be solved predates the existence of the modern game, dating back to the mansūbāt composed for shatranj, the Muslim predecessor of chess. In modern chess problems, a position is provided along with a stipulation such as “white to move and mate in two”, and the solver is tasked with finding a move (called a “key”) that satisfies the stipulation regardless of a hypothetical opposing player’s moves in response. These solutions are given in the same notation as lines of play in over-the-board games: typically algebraic notation, using abbreviations for the names of pieces, or figurine algebraic notation. Problem composers have not limited themselves to the materials of the conventional game, but have experimented with different board sizes and geometries, altered rules, goals other than checkmate, and different pieces. Problems that diverge from the standard game comprise a genre called “fairy chess”. Thomas Rayner Dawson, known as the “father of fairy chess”, pop- ularized the genre in the early 20th century.

  • Variation in Assessment
    Variation in Assessment A Coh-Metrix Analysis of Evaluation of Written English in the Swedish Upper Secondary School Hugo Simion Malmcrona Department of English Individual Research Project (EN04GY) English Linguistics Autumn 2019 Supervisor: Alan McMillion Variation in Assessment A Coh-Metrix Analysis of Evaluation of Written English in the Swedish Upper Secondary School Hugo Simion Malmcrona Abstract Reliable evaluation is an important part of language education. However, reliable evaluation of student writing is notoriously difficult to achieve nationally. To better understand what evaluators value in upper secondary English education in Sweden this study has examined correlations between grading and linguistic variables in student writing using Coh-Metrix, a natural language processor. Previous studies in Hong Kong and the U.S. have shown that linguistic and lexical sophistication have a high correlation with good grades, while explicit cohesive devices have a negative correlation with grades. Results have varied depending on level of proficiency and there are indications that evaluators have cultural differences. Seventy-nine essays from the national test for the course English 6, from two different schools and teachers were analysed in this study. The study asked: What language variables correlate with grades, and how do two teachers differ in their value of quality? In order to answer this, correlations between grades and all 106 Coh-Metrix indices were calculated and t-tested for significance. The ten most highly correlating variables were then compiled, with very similar indices excluded. Correlation scores of the same variables but for both teachers separately were then compiled for comparison. The ten highest correlations for both teachers separately were also compiled along with scores for the same indices for the other teacher.
