Engineering Physics Institute) Multilingual practices in The Voice Russia: the pragmatics of musical performance The vocal competition “Golos” (the Russian version of the global television show “The Voice”) provides a rich source of material for the investigation of multilingual practices in music due to its particularly international status: the participants represent different republics within the Russian Federation, the CIS states, and various countries of the far abroad. In addition to the main three languages of the songs on the show – Russian, English, and Italian – musical performances incorporate other local languages, which are native to some of the contestants: French, Spanish, Portuguese, Ukrainian, Georgian, Azerbaijani, Hebrew, Romani, and so forth. The most interesting in terms of language use are multilingual performances, in which the performers mix lyrics (verses, choruses, fragments of verses and choruses, etc.) in different languages. The study of multilingual performances in “Golos” is guided primarily by research on the sociolinguistics of globalization, which regards language as a “mobile resource” and posits that language varieties (resources) are appropriated by communicants for a certain purpose and gain meaning in situated contexts (Blommaert, 2010). The data were drawn from the videos of 21 multilingual songs that make 2% of the total number of songs performed in the five seasons of “Golos” (2012 – 2016). Multilingual performances in “Golos” are composed via two main patterns: (1) language transposition (cf “linguistic transposition” in Chik (2010, p. 516)) and (2) music and language combination. Performances of the first type do not usually imply any changes in music and consist in the integration of a translated version of the same song into a different language. Performances of the second type combine fragments from different songs and alternate both language and music. In combination with a well-thought-out

In this research, eleven categories of names for drug/alcohol treatment facilities have been identified while eight categories have been identified for adult daycare centers. Ten categories have become apparent for nursing homes and assisted living facilities. These naming choices function as euphemisms in many cases, and in others, names reference morphemes which are perceived to reference a higher social class than competitor names.

Based on evidence from Koryak (Chukotko-Kamchan) anaphors, we argue that the AAE should be weakened and be stated as a generalization about person agreement only. We propose a theory of the weakened AAE, which combines a modification of Preminger (2019)'s AnaphP-encapsulation proposal as well as converging evidence from work on the internal syntax of pronouns (Harbour 2016, van Urk 2018).

This “second edition” of my 1887 attempt to reduce to standard rule the Nepali tongue, as spoken at cosmopolitan Darjeeling, is really an entirely new work. In preparing it I have had the advantage of elaborate criti¬ cal notes on the first edition by the most exalted authority in Kathmandu ; in passing it through the press, the invaluable assistance of the Rev. *G. P. Pradhan, the highest authority in Darjeeling ; and in meeting the expense, the practical patron¬ age of the Government of Bengal, the advance purchaser of an adequate number of the copies. In perusing it the student will perhaps allow’ some of its shortcomings—to be excused by my distance from the prin¬ ter, and himself to be persuaded to learn the native alphabet at the outset—the language is much easier in its own charac¬ ter than in the ill-fitting Roman—and to procure in due course The Acts of the Apostles in Nepali (Bible House, 23. Ohow- ringhi, Calcutta) and in English (R.V.), as complemental text¬ books.

  • The Fire History in Pine Forests of the Plain Area In
    Nature Conservation Research. Заповедная наука 2019. 4(Suppl.1): 21–34 https://dx.doi.org/10.24189/ncr.2019.033 THE FIRE HISTORY IN PINE FORESTS OF THE PLAIN AREA IN THE PECHORA-ILYCH NATURE BIOSPHERE RESERVE (RUSSIA) BEFORE 1942: POSSIBLE ANTHROPOGENIC CAUSES AND LONG-TERM EFFECTS Alexey А. Aleinikov Center for Forest Ecology and Productivity of RAS, Russia e-mail: [email protected] Received: 10.02.2019. Revised: 21.04.2019. Accepted: 23.04.2019. The assessment of the succession status and the forecast of the development of pine forests depend on their origin and need a detailed study of historical and modern fire regimes. This article summarises the information on the dynamics of fires in the forests of the plain area in the Pechora-Ilych Biosphere Reserve (Russia) before 1942. Current forest fires in the pine forests in the Pechora-Ilych Biosphere Reserve are a legacy of previous traditional land use on this territory. Thanks to the material analysis of the first forest inventory, the condition of the forests of the plain area was assessed for the first time 10 years after the foundation of the Pechora-Ilych Bio- sphere Reserve. It was shown that about 50% of the forests of the modern plain area (most of the lichen, green moss-lichen and green moss-shrub communities) at that time were already touched by ground and crown fires. The population got accustomed to the smoke along the tributaries of the Pechora and the Ilych rivers, so that they reflected it in the names. Perhaps, for several centuries, fires were initiated by the Mansi, who used this territory as winter pastures until the middle of the 19th century.

  • Specific Character of Modern Interethnic Relations in Krasnoyarsk Territory As Per Associative Experiment
    Journal of Siberian Federal University. Humanities & Social Sciences 11 (2011 4) 1553-1576 ~ ~ ~ УДК 316.622 Specific Character of Modern Interethnic Relations in Krasnoyarsk Territory as Per Associative Experiment Galina V. Kivkutsan* Siberian Federal University 79 Svobodny, Krasnoyarsk, 660041 Russia 1 Received 15.03.2011, received in revised form 17.06.2011, accepted 10.10.2011 Ethnocultural space of Krasnoyarsk territory is an urgent subject for research nowadays. According to the criteria of conflict, ethnology and sociology theory Krasnoyarsk territory has been both a centre of strained interethnic relations and a specific interethnic conglomerate. Thus, the study of ethnicity phenomenon in Krasnoyarsk territory is one of the most important tasks of applied cultural research. The research objectives are to detect an interethnic relations dominant type on the basis of specificity of ethnocultural space of Krasnoyarsk territory (while applying associative experiment method) and to model possible ways of conflict settlement. The research has resulted in the relevant conclusion that interethnic relations in the territory have a set of features peculiar to this territory. That has led to a hypothesis about a possible interethnic conflicts settlement in case of their threat. The research uniqueness is stated through both a particular practical orientation of the research and experimental application of new forms of the developed methods into the sphere of cultural research. A considerable attention has been paid to a complex approach to a definite problem. Associative experiment is considered to be the most effective method of detection and research of such a cultural phenomenon as ethnic stereotype. It is proved by the specificity of the method initially applied in psychology.
