    source: www.languagesindanger.eu Linguistic rights of minorities as human rights Outline of a lesson in Social Studies in Poland Author: Tomasz Wicherkiewicz English translation: Natalia Sarbinowska Examples of bi- and trilingual public road and information signs (in majority and minority languages): - Breton-French signs in Brittany - a Polish-Lemko name of the village in Low Beskids - an Aranese-Catalan-Spanish sign in Aran Valley in the Pyrenees Part 1 Please read carefully the following passage from The Polish legislation regarding the education and linguistic rights of minorities by G.Janusz (full text in Polish available here: http://www.agdm.pl/pdf/prawa_jezykowe.pdf). “The right to use a mother tongue by members of national minorities is one of the most fundamental minority rights. It allows minorities: 1. to preserve their language identity freely and without interference of any form of discrimination 2. to teach their mother tongue and receive education in that language 3. to use their names and surnames spelled in the minority language, 4. to freely access information in their language, 5. to use their minority language in private and public life without restraints, 6. to use their mother tongue in public life, especially as an official or a subsidiary official language. Every person has the right to use his or her mother tongue - it is one of the most fundamental human rights. (…) The Constitution is the basic law for the State (…). The Constitution of the Republic of Poland, adopted in 1997, introduced new regulations, which relate, directly or indirectly, to the rights and the status of people belonging to minorities.

  • Palgrave Studies in Minority Languages and Communities
    Palgrave Studies in Minority Languages and Communities Series Editor Gabrielle Hogan-Brun Vytautas Magnus University Kaunas, Lithuania Worldwide migration and unprecedented economic, political and social integration present serious challenges to the nature and position of language minorities. Some communities receive protective legislation and active support from states through policies that promote and sustain cultural and linguistic diversity; others succumb to global homogenisation and assimilation. At the same time, discourses on diversity and emancipation have produced greater demands for the management of diference. Tis series publishes new research based on single or comparative case studies on minority languages worldwide. We focus on their use, status and prospects, and on linguistic pluralism in areas with immigrant or traditional minority communities or with shifting borders. Each volume is written in an accessible style for researchers and students in linguistics, education, politics and anthropology, and for practitioners interested in language minorities and diversity. We welcome submissions in either monograph or Pivot format.

  • A Linguistic Landscape of Hahndorf, South Australia
    Volume 3 Issue 1 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND June 2016 CULTURAL STUDIES ISSN 2356-5926 Willkommen in Hahndorf: A Linguistic Landscape of Hahndorf, South Australia Adam Koschade Blackwood, South Australia, Australia [email protected] Abstract The town of Hahndorf in South Australia was established in 1839 by German migrants. Despite the significance of Hahndorf as the oldest surviving German settlement in Australia, one of the oldest towns in South Australia, a prominent tourist location and its inclusion on state and national heritage registers, a linguistic landscaping survey of the town has not previously been conducted. This paper presents a linguistic landscaping study of Hahndorf. Eighty linguistic signs located near the main street of Hahndorf were analysed using quantitative and qualitative methods. Results indicated that English (92.5%) was the most common language choice for signs in Hahndorf, followed by German (18.75%). Chinese and Indian languages were used in a small number of signs. Signs were more likely to be monolingual (82.5%) than bilingual (17.5%). Monolingual signs predominantly used English while most bilingual signs were written in English and German. Discrepancies were found between the linguistic landscape and languages spoken at home for languages other than English. Factors such as informational versus symbolic function of languages, sign authorship, intended audience, code preference, social positioning and a diachronic perspective were considered. Multiple socio-historical (settlement history and community), socio-political (heritage listing, government regulations/laws and war-related anti-German sentiment) and socio-economic (tourism and advertising) factors were identified as having a significant impact on the linguistic landscape of Hahndorf.

  • Průvodce Městem .Indd
    Introduction Looking at all the tourists to our venerable Mělník, making their way through the town, not knowing where to go and what to see and not knowing the many monuments and wonderful sites of which our town has so many to boast, I decided to write this „guide“... From whichever side we approach Mělník we see from afar how it is perched pictur- esquely on a pretty hill top. Its majestic church tower is visible not only from the Petřín look-out tower but also from Milešovka, Ještěd, Bezděz and other elevated places in the northern half of our kingdom. A major factor in Mělník’s picturesque quality is the fact that it towers above the con- fluence of our country’s largest rivers: the Elbe and the Moldau, which are now joined by a third waterway - the Hořínsko-Vraňanský lateral canal. The charming situation is supplemented by the gardens, parks, groves and vineyards that surround Mělník, the last of which has given the town our world renown as the source of the acclaimed and celebrated Mělnik wine. The various sights and monuments that our town shelters in its womb, now most re- cently accompanied by the modern Hořínské canal lock, attract ever more visitors, who look at and delight in everything with the enchanting view of the wider surroundings, and cannot bear to leave our town and its wine. B. Marjanko: Picturesque guide to Mělník and its surroundings, 1906 Even today the words of this one-hundred-year-old guidebook to the town of Mělník could form the beginning to a guide to the former royal dowry town.

The proposal is based on a transparent and expert backed process involving both Unicode- computing specialists and representatives of the Rovas (r-o-w-a-sh ) user community (Hosszú, Rumi, & Sípos 2008). Moreover, it is based on the recent results of the archeology, linguistics and paleography. Comparing to the previous proposals, the most important improvements are the following: ( i) merging the sets of the three Rovas orthographies into one Rovas block, ( ii ) adding topology-based attributes to the character names in order to avoid their collisions in the merged Rovas block, and ( iii ) slight refinements in the transcriptions of the historical inscriptions and the character repertoire. The current revised document contains additional examples of the Rovas orthographies and smaller improvements of the previous version of the N4183 (2011-12-15). The proposed Rovas block is intended to represent a unified script that covers the Szekely- Hungarian Rovas , Carpathian Basin Rovas , and Khazarian Rovas alphabets.

This study will show that Canadian relations with German civilians were, in part, an extension of relations with civilians in liberated countries, but were also something new altogether. At the beginning of the invasion of Germany, most Canadian soldiers did not wish to associate with Germans and followed a fraternization ban that had been put into effect.
