  • Vietnamese Female Spouses' Language Use Patterns in Self Initiated Admonishment Sequences in Bilingual Taiwanese Families* L
    Novitas-ROYAL (Research on Youth and Language), 2014, 8(1), 77-96. VIETNAMESE FEMALE SPOUSES’ LANGUAGE USE PATTERNS IN SELF INITIATED ADMONISHMENT SEQUENCES IN BILINGUAL TAIWANESE FAMILIES* Li-Fen WANG1 Abstract: This paper aims to identify how Taiwanese and Mandarin (the two dominant languages in Taiwan) are used as interactional resources by Vietnamese female spouses in bilingual Taiwanese families. Three Vietnamese-Taiwanese transnational families (a total of seventeen people) participated in the research, and mealtime talks among the Vietnamese wives and their Taiwanese family members were audio-/video-recorded. Conversation analysis (CA) was adopted to analyse the seven hours of data collected. It was found that the Vietnamese participants orient to Taiwanese and Mandarin as salient resources in admonishment sequences. Specifically, it was identified that the two languages serve as contextualisation cues and framing devices in the Vietnamese participants’ self-initiated admonishment sequences. Keywords: Conversation analysis, cross-border marriage, intercultural communication Özet: Bu çalışma, Tayvanca ve Çince’nin (Tayvan’daki yaygın iki dil) iki dil konuşan Tayvanlı ailelerdeki Vietnamlı kadın eşler tarafından etkileşimsel kaynak olarak nasıl kullanıldığını göstermeyi amaçlamaktadır.

  • Bombardier Manufactures a Variety of Standalone Transit Systems, Including the INNOVIA Monorail, the INNOVIA APM, and the MOVIA Light Metro
    Response to City of San Jose RFI 2019-DOT-PPD-4 New Transit Options: Airport-Diridon-Stevens Creek Transit Connection Bombardier manufactures a variety of standalone transit systems, including the INNOVIA Monorail, the INNOVIA APM, and the MOVIA Light Metro. All these systems, or a combination of these systems, could be an excellent basis for the Airport - Diridon - Steven's Creek corridor project(s). Of the three technologies, the INNOVIA Monorail appears to best address the objectives of the proposed project in that it is less expensive to construct, can be constructed more rapidly, and operates in a grade-separated, high capacity system. Ultimately the choice of technology depends on a variety of factors, most notably the planned ridership per hour, which are not available at present. As such, Bombardier has submitted information on all three technologies, and looks forward to the opportunity to discuss the best fit solution with the City of San Jose at their convenience. Bombardier anticipates that this project could be delivered as a Design-Build-Operate Maintain Finance (DBFOM) Public Private Partnership (PPP).

Beijing’s MICE tourism industry boasts excellent facilities, professional institutions and practitioners, extensive management and supporting policies that have garnered world recognition and become a veritable “international MICE capital”. This volume will showcase the advantages of Beijing’s MICE tourism industry, introduce Beijing’s MICE venues and related policies in order for Chinese and foreign visitors to gain a deeper understanding of the city’s MICE tourism industry and to truly understand Beijing as an “international MICE capital”. 2 MICE Tourism in Beijing Highlights 4 Aspects of World-class Infrastructure Venues | Transportation | Accommodations | Tourism 3 Features of Strategic Support Policies | Organizations | Professionals For more information, please see the details below.
