  • Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics &A
    Online Appendix for Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue (2014) Some Principles of the Use of Macro-Areas Language Dynamics & Change Harald Hammarstr¨om& Mark Donohue The following document lists the languages of the world and their as- signment to the macro-areas described in the main body of the paper as well as the WALS macro-area for languages featured in the WALS 2005 edi- tion. 7160 languages are included, which represent all languages for which we had coordinates available1. Every language is given with its ISO-639-3 code (if it has one) for proper identification. The mapping between WALS languages and ISO-codes was done by using the mapping downloadable from the 2011 online WALS edition2 (because a number of errors in the mapping were corrected for the 2011 edition). 38 WALS languages are not given an ISO-code in the 2011 mapping, 36 of these have been assigned their appropri- ate iso-code based on the sources the WALS lists for the respective language. This was not possible for Tasmanian (WALS-code: tsm) because the WALS mixes data from very different Tasmanian languages and for Kualan (WALS- code: kua) because no source is given. 17 WALS-languages were assigned ISO-codes which have subsequently been retired { these have been assigned their appropriate updated ISO-code. In many cases, a WALS-language is mapped to several ISO-codes. As this has no bearing for the assignment to macro-areas, multiple mappings have been retained. 1There are another couple of hundred languages which are attested but for which our database currently lacks coordinates.

  • Emigration from England to South Africa
    Chapter 11: Emigration from England to South Africa When we landed at Harwich this time there was no trouble with Customs. Out of the dock area our first need was to fill up with petrol and when we did so Nigel was very intrigued and said to me quietly so as not to hurt anyone’s feelings ‘Daddy, They all speak English here!’ Of course, as they were often during the day in Utrecht in the care of a Dutch nanny (after her marriage, Kitty had been replaced by ‘Babs’), they heard a lot of Dutch spoken and understood quite a bit. When Babs took them to the Wilhelminapark (where it was forbidden to walk on the grass!), she would take them to see the ducks and they knew them as ‘eendtjes’ and a passing horse would be referred to as ‘een paard’. Only two days after we returned to England Stuart was being a little fractious when being taken for a walk in his push-chair, or stroller as it seems to be now called, and we attempted to distract his attention from whatever was worrying him by pointing out a passing horse and cart by saying ‘Kijk, Stuart, een paard!’ he replied crossly ‘It isn’t a paard, it’s a horse!’ Life in England was obviously not going to easy because we did not have a home, we only had the car for a few days until I would have to hand it over to Dr Johnson, my replacement for the job in Holland, and all I had to build a practice around was my appointment at the Middlesex which thanks to the introduction of the National Health Service was paid now, but not enough to keep a wife and family of three children.

It addresses four issues:(1) how specific languages, in all their varieties, are typically used to convey general information through various r;poken and written channels to children in schools, and how they are susceptible to change;(2) how students' language proficiency, as indilriduals and as groups, affect acquisition of other knowledge and skills, and vice versa, in a typical school;(3) options available to language specialists in relating the monolingual, bilingual, or multilingual curriculum to language syllabi, tests, and instructional sequences in language courses; and (4)in cases where choice of language media and language subjects has not ben dictated by educational policy, or is otherwise subject to change, what the most important considerations are in determining the kind of language to be used for each type and level of instruction, in both language and general curriculum.

Language-in-education policies in Malawi are a prime example of this as Malawi’s language planning has repeatedly been criticised and epitomises the tension between the competing positions of English and the twelve Malawian languages in the country (Kayambazinthu 1998, Moyo 2001, Breton 2003).

  • A Phylogenetic Approach to Comparative Linguistics: a Test Study Using the Languages of Borneo
    Hirzi Luqman 1st September 2010 A Phylogenetic Approach to Comparative Linguistics: a Test Study using the Languages of Borneo Abstract The conceptual parallels between linguistic and biological evolution are striking; languages, like genes are subject to mutation, replication, inheritance and selection. In this study, we explore the possibility of applying phylogenetic techniques established in biology to linguistic data. Three common phylogenetic reconstruction methods are tested: (1) distance-based network reconstruction, (2) maximum parsimony and (3) Bayesian inference. We use network analysis as a preliminary test to inspect degree of horizontal transmission prior to the use of the other methods. We test each method for applicability and accuracy, and compare their results with those from traditional classification. We find that the maximum parsimony and Bayesian inference methods are both very powerful and accurate in their phylogeny reconstruction. The maximum parsimony method recovered 8 out of a possible 13 clades identically, while the Bayesian inference recovered 7 out of 13. This match improved when we considered only fully resolved clades for the traditional classification, with maximum parsimony scoring 8 out of 9 possible matches, and Bayesian 7 out of 9 matches. Introduction different dialects and languages. And just as phylogenetic inference may be muddied by horizontal transmission, so “The formation of different languages and of distinct too may borrowing and imposition cloud true linguistic species, and the proofs that both have been developed relations. These fundamental similarities in biological and through a gradual process, are curiously parallel... We find language evolution are obvious, but do they imply that tools in distinct languages striking homologies due to community and methods developed in one field are truly transferable to of descent, and analogies due to a similar process of the other? Or are they merely clever and coincidental formation..

  • Mapping Indonesian Bajau Communities in Sulawesi
    Mapping Indonesian Bajau Communities in Sulawesi by David Mead and Myung-young Lee with six maps prepared by Chris Neveux SIL International 2007 SIL Electronic Survey Report 2007-019, July 2007 Copyright © 2007 David Mead, Myung-young Lee, and SIL International All rights reserved 2 Contents Abstract 1 Background 2 Sources of data for the present study 3 Comparison of sources and resolution of discrepancies 3.1 North Sulawesi 3.2 Central Sulawesi 3.3 Southeast Sulawesi 3.4 South Sulawesi 4 Maps of Bajau communities in Sulawesi 5 The Bajau language in Sulawesi 5.1 Dialects 5.2 Language use and language vitality 5.3 Number of speakers Appendix 1: Table of Bajau communities in Sulawesi Appendix 2: Detailed comparisons of sources Appendix 3: Bajau wordlists from Sulawesi Published wordlists Unpublished wordlists References Works cited in this article An incomplete listing of some other publications having to do with the Bajau of Sulawesi 3 Mapping Indonesian Bajau Communities in Sulawesi Abstract The heart of this paper is a set of six maps, which together present a picture of the location of Indonesian Bajau communities throughout Sulawesi—the first truly new update since the language map of Adriani and Kruyt (1914). Instead of the roughly dozen locations which these authors presented, we can say that at present the Bajau live in more than one hundred fifty locations across Sulawesi. In order to develop this picture, we gleaned information from a number of other sources, most of which treated the Bajau only tangentially. 1 Background Two difficulties face the researcher who would locate where the Indonesian Bajau (hereafter simply ‘Bajau’)1 live across the island of Sulawesi.
