    FREESIDE EUROPE ONLINE ACADEMIC JOURNAL 2020/1 ALUMNI ISSUE www.freesideeurope.com DOI 10.51313/alumni-2020-9 Categories and social meanings: An analysis of international students’ language practices in an international school Jani-Demetriou Bernadett ELTE Doctoral School of Linguistics [email protected] Abstract Bilingual educational programmes in recent years received criticism from translanguaging or superdiversity scholars. These programmes follow either the subtractive or the additive models of bilingual education (García 2009), in both of which the languages are considered as separate systems. This distinction is considered as “inadequate to describe linguistic diversity” (García 2009: 142) and masks the real diversity of difference by focusing only on languages. Thinking in terms of plurilingualism and multiculturalism “might contribute to a continuation of thinking in terms of us-versus-them, essentializing cultural or ethnic differences” (Geldof 2018: 45). The present study argues that a critical ethnographic sociolinguistic approach provides a more relevant analysis of children’s language practices. From this critical perspective, speaking is highlighted instead of languages and considered as action in which the linguistic resources carry social meaning (Blommaert–Rampton 2011). This paper introduces the findings of an ethnographic fieldwork set in an international summer school where linguistic and ethnic diversity is a commonplace, although a strict English-only language policy applies in order to achieve the school’s pedagogical goals. The aim of the research has been to find out how students from various cultural background are dealing with ethnical and linguistic diversity and to analyse how the processes of normalisation (Geldof 2018) among students and teachers create values and categories accepted as norms by the group.

  • Linguistic Practices in Cyprus and the Emergence of Cypriot Standard Greek*
    San Diego Linguistic Papers 2 (2006) 1-24 LINGUISTIC PRACTICES IN CYPRUS AND THE EMERGENCE OF CYPRIOT STANDARD GREEK* Amalia Arvaniti University of California, San Diego ----------------------------------------------- In Cyprus today systematic changes affecting all levels of linguistic analysis are observed in the use of Standard Greek, giving rise to a distinct linguistic variety which can be called Cypriot Standard Greek. The changes can be attributed to the influence of English and Cypriot Greek (the local linguistic variety), and to the increasing use of the Standard in semi-formal occasions. Equally important is the reluctance to recognize the diglossic situation on the island (in which Standard Greek is the H variety and Cypriot Greek the L), for political and ideological reasons. This in turn means that the attention of the Cypriot speakers is not drawn to the differences between Standard Greek as spoken in Greece and their usage of it; thus the differences become gradually consolidated, while the users remain unaware of them. ----------------------------------------------- 1 Introduction The past two decades have seen a proliferation of scholarly work on the linguistic situation in Cyprus. This body of work is concerned with several topics, such as the speakers’ awareness of the linguistic varieties spoken on the island (e.g., Karyolemou & * This paper is a companion to Arvaniti (this volume b). Although the papers compliment each other, they are written in such a way that each can be read independently of the other; for this reason, some introductory sections (e.g. the historical background) show a degree of overlap. The bulk of the data in this article was gathered in Cyprus from 1996 to 2001, with additional data collected since then using a variety of web resources.

Report of the Committee of Experts on the Charter B. Recommendation of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe on the application of the Charter by Cyprus The European Charter for Regional o r Minority Languages provides for a control mechanism to evaluate how the Charter is applied in a State Party with a view to, where necessary, making Recommendations for improvements in its legislation, policy and practices. The central element of this pro cedure is the Committee of Experts, established in accordance with Article 17 of the Charter. Its principal purpose is to examine the real situation of the regional or minority languages in the State, to report to the Committee of Ministers on its evaluati on of compliance by a Party with its undertakings, and, where appropriate, to encourage the Party to gradually reach a higher level of commitment. To facilitate this task, the Committee of Ministers has adopted, in accordance with Article 15.1, an outline for the periodical reports that a Party is required to submit to the Secretary General. The report shall be made public by the government concerned. This outline requires the State to give an account of the concrete application of the Charter, the general policy for the languages protected under its Part II and in more precise terms all measures that have been taken in application of the provisions chosen for each language protected under Part III of the Charter.

  • Reconsidering the Role of Turkish in the Community Of
    Zoumpalidis, Changing attitudes CHANGING ATTITUDES: RECONSIDERING THE ROLE OF TURKISH IN THE COMMUNITY OF PONTIC GREEKS IN CYPRUS DIONYSIOS ZOUMPALIDIS1 Abstract The present paper examines the linguistic behaviour of the first wave of Pontic Greek immigrants to Cyprus based on their internalized language attitudes and dominant language ideologies. Since the time of its settlement in Cyprus in the early/mid 1990s, the predominantly Turkish-speaking community of Pontic Greeks has experienced a rapid linguistic and cultural transformation. This occurred primarily due to the local population’s (i.e. Greek-Cypriots’) reluctance to recognize the Turkish-speaking Pontic Greeks as belonging to the Greek linguistic and cultural ‘world’ in light of the former’s historical and socio-political tensions with the Turkish-Cypriot minority. More specifically, I will analyse the factors that have contributed to this rapid language shift and show what (non-) linguistic means are employed by the members of the Pontic Greek community to index their ethnic identity and belonging. I. Introduction The tightly-knit community of immigrant Pontic Greeks in Cyprus numbers 25,000 to 30,000 out of a total island population of nearly 839,000 (Census 2011). The first Pontic Greek immigrants to Cyprus, who arrived in the early to mid-1990s, spoke a variety of Turkish as their first language (L1), and although many of them also spoke Russian, their Greek skills were poor. Only twenty years later, Turkish speech has contracted even in the domestic sphere, and while Russian has been retained, Greek has gained ground. The community of Pontic Greeks has mainly been studied from a historical perspective (see Karpozilos 1999, Bruneau 2000, Eloeva 2000 and Fotiadis 2000, among others), while limited research has been conducted from a sociolinguistic perspective (see Melikishvili and Jalabadze 2016, Höfler 2016 for anthropological and linguistic anthropological approaches to the study of 1 PhD.

  • Developments in the Field of the European Charter for Regional Or Minority Languages
    Vesna Crnić-Grotić * Developments in the Field of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages I. Introduction In 2008 the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages1 celebrated its 10th anniversary together with another pivotal treaty in the field of minority protection— the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities. Both treaties symbolize the political determination of most European states to provide protection for their minorities in various fields of public life. The Council of Europe celebrated these two anniversaries in several instances (in Strasbourg,2 Luleå3). This festive occa- sion was also used to assess the results achieved and to evaluate the tasks still ahead. The Secretary General of the Council of Europe in his fourth biennial report to the Parliamentary Assembly on the charter emphasized that an ever-increasing international recognition of the Charter can be noticed. The interest that other international organisations take in the Charter underlines its importance as the only binding legal instrument worldwide specifically devoted to the safeguarding of regional or minority languages and thus as a key convention of the Council of Europe.4 At the same time, the secretary general had to observe that the number of states parties “was stagnating”. The result was especially poor with respect to some member * Vice president and member of the Committee of Experts, in respect to Croatia, of the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages. The opinions expressed are solely those of the author. 1 European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages, adopted on 5 November 1992, entered into force on 1 March 1998, ETS No.

  • Location Geography
    Cyprus (Republic of Cyprus and the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus) Location Cyprus is an island in the Mediterranean Sea, next to Turkey and east of Greece. It is often viewed as part of the Middle East because of its proximity to Israel, Syria, and Lebanon. Cyprus is the third largest island in the Mediterranean Sea at 9,250 square miles, with Sicily and Sardinia just ahead in size. Its position in the Mediterranean Sea has made it the center of many territorial battles. Greece, Turkey, and the UK have all struggled to maintain a hold on Cyprus. Geography Considering the small size of the island, Cyprus has a great range in its topography. Its lowest point is even with the Mediterranean Sea at sea level. Its highest point is Mount Olympus at 1,951 meters and is situated in the Troodos mountain range to the southwest of the island. Other mountain ranges, which command most of the land area in Cyprus, include the Kyrenia and Pentadactylos in the north. Cyprus also has a large central plain known as the Mesaoria, which is on the east side of the country. The mountain ranges that dominate the island leave only 40% of the land suitable for vegetation growth and only 7% of the total land in Cyprus is used as permanent cropland. Earthquakes can affect the island because of its location near fault lines, although they are usually not severe. Climate Being situated in the Mediterranean Sea lends a temperate climate to Cyprus. The island experiences relatively hot summers with little rain while the winters are much more wet and cold.
