  • Analysis of Temporal Variables in Modified Speeches: How Native Speakers of English Slow Down Their Speeches?
    Analysis of temporal variables in modified speeches: How native speakers of English slow down their speeches? OSADA Nobuko Waseda University It is quite natural that native speakers of English slow down their speech when they try to communicate with linguistically deficient individuals such as children, foreigners, and learners of English. Also, it is commonly said that slow speech is slow mainly by the frequent and longer silent pauses. The purpose of this paper is to investigate whether or not there are actually frequent and longer silent pauses in modified speeches. Two passages from a news program of the satellite broadcasting in Japan were selected and analyzed in terms of (a) speech rate, (b) articulation rate, (c) length of pause unit, (d) individual pause length, (e) pause frequency, and (f) percentage of pauses to overall speech time. 1. Introduction This study aims to investigate how native speakers of English slow down their speeches. When the native speakers consciously adjust their speeches to promote listeners’ comprehension, they are called modified speeches. Although the speakers are conscious of the fact that they modify their speeches, it is impossible for them to control temporal variables (e.g., speech rate, articulation rate, length and frequency of silent pauses) consciously and completely. This study, therefore, intends to clarify the native speakers’ unconscious attempts to modify their speeches. Modified speeches are the input simplified phonetically, lexically, and syntactically for a better comprehension of linguistically deficient individuals. Caretaker talk is the speech directed toward young children, teacher talk is the speech that teachers use in classroom with learners, foreigner talk is the speech directed toward nonnative speakers who are less proficient in using the language, and interlanguage talk are the speech that learners address to each other.

Such beginning in the form of world class tournaments has allowed strengthening the position of women's football in the world, giving it international prestige. First tournament took place in China in 1991. Joao Havelange, a then FIFA president, was a great promoter of the establishment of the FIFA World Cup. The next world championships were played in Sweden. It was a perfect tournament in terms of organization. A turning point in women's football was a tournament played in 1999 in the United States. It was a great media success of women's football. This tournament broke the audience record of sport competitions involving women, as the final match was watched by more than 90 thousand spectators at the stadium. The next championships strengthened the position of football in the world. Currently, there is a need to monitor and register important events in women's football, as it happens in men's football. Key words: women's football, world championship, history. Анджей Сорока. Історія жіночих чемпіонатів світу з футболу в 1991–2007 рр.

    DREAMING OF BEIJING: EXPERIENCING THE CHANGING LANDSCAPE OF ELITE WOMEN’S SOCCER IN CANADA by ASHLEY N. McGHEE BA, Sociology, Oakland University, 2002 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES (Human Kinetics) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA VANCOUVER JUNE 2008 © Ashley N. McGhee, 2008 11 Abstract On April 9, 2008 the Canadian women’s soccer national team secured its first berth into the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Despite this great accomplishment, since its formation in July 1986 Team Canada has struggled to develop and maintain consistency at the international level. Furthermore, although soccer is currently the “game of choice” for young girls and women at the recreational level in Canada, there has been little support for women’s professional development in Canada (Hall, 2004). Despite this limited support, however, a number of changes have taken place in recent years in an attempt to elevate the landscape of elite women’s soccer in Canada. More specifically, in 1999, the Canadian Soccer Association hired a full-time international head coach for the women’s national program. In February 2006, the Vancouver Whitecaps FC also hired a full-time head coach for its amateur senior women’s team. These fully-funded positions provided critical human and financial resources for the development of elite women’s soccer. My research objectives are two-fold; first, I construct a chronological account of the development of elite women’s soccer in Canada focusing primarily on some major changes that occurred in 2006.
