Self Reports Of First And Second Language Ability By Academically Inclined And Challenged Students, Arshad Abd Samad
Self Reports Of First And Second Language Ability By Academically Inclined And Challenged Students, Arshad Abd Samad
Arshad Abd Samad
Becoming proficient in a second language may involve several factors that are different from those involved in the first language. One factor that may influence performance in either language is academic aptitude. In this study, responses to statements regarding language abilities in Bahasa Malaysia and English by academically inclined and challenged students were analysed using the Chi-Square technique. The results indicate that while the academically inclined students do not have major difficulties in performance in either of the two languages, the academically challenged students report problems in basic linguistic abilities in the English language but not in Bahasa Malaysia. Several …

Karaoke For Social And Cultural Change, Payal Arora
Payal Arora
This account demonstrates the key challenges faced in producing engaging educational content for information and communication technologies (ICT) deployed in rural India. The ‘Stills in Sync’ (SIS) project aims to enhance literacy through the revival and proliferation of popular regional folksongs with social awareness themes in rural India. This product entails the use of the Same Language Subtitling (SLS) karaoke feature that won the Worldbank Development Marketplace award in 2002 and the ‘Tech Laureate’ honor from the Technology Museum of Innovation in 2003. This case study highlights the struggles faced in the production process as we sought to negotiate localism …
The Role Of Social Factors In The Dynamics Of Sound Change: A Case Study Of A Russian Dialect, Alexei Kochetov
The Role Of Social Factors In The Dynamics Of Sound Change: A Case Study Of A Russian Dialect, Alexei Kochetov
Alexei Kochetov
This article presents results of a sociolinguistic study of a Northern Russian dialect as spoken in a small rural community of Pokcha in the Western Urals, Russia. Because of a number of social influences, the dialect has been undergoing a rapid shift towards Standard Russian. The study examines two sound changes in progress: (1) a merger of unstressed mid back vowels and (2) a split of a post-alveolar fricative into two phonemes. The focus of the study is on the role of social factors—age, mobility, education, and sex—in determining the dynamics of the two rather different phonological processes.

Testing Licensing By Cue: A Case Of Russian Palatalized Coronals, Alexei Kochetov
Alexei Kochetov
The hypothesis ‘licensing by cue’ by Steriade holds that phonological contrasts are maintained in environments that provide better acoustic cues to the contrasts and are neutralized in environments that provide poorer acoustic cues or no cues. This paper tests the hypothesis by examining the distribution of a phonological contrast – the Russian plain/palatalized coronal stops /t/ and /tj/ in various syllable- final contexts. The results of a series of acoustic and perceptual experiments presented in this paper provide some support for the hypothesis: the relative salience of releases in different word boundary contexts (_#k > _#n, _#s) correlates strongly with the …
Syllable Position Effects And Gestural Organization: Evidence From Russian, Alexei Kochetov
Syllable Position Effects And Gestural Organization: Evidence From Russian, Alexei Kochetov
Alexei Kochetov
Previous articulatory studies have shown that English syllable-initial and syllable-final consonants exhibit different patterns of gestural organization. These differences – syllable position effects – are manifested primarily in the relative timing and magnitude of gestures. In general, syllable-initial consonants show more stable patterns of coordination and “tighter” articu-latory constrictions than the same consonants in syllable-final position. This paper addresses the question of whether syllable position effects hold for other languages by examining the articulatory properties of some Rus-sian syllable-initial and syllable final consonants: the palatal glide /j/ and labial stops /pj/ and /p/. In general, the articulometer (EMMA) results con-firm …

Bilingual Lexical Activation In Sentence Context, Ana I. Schwartz, Judith F. Kroll
Ana I Schwartz
The present study investigated the cognitive nature of second language (L2) lexical processing in sentence context. We examined bilinguals’ L2 word recognition performance for language-ambiguous words [cognates (e.g., piano); and homographs (e.g., pan)] in two sentence context experiments with highly proficient Spanish-English bilinguals living in a bilingual community (Experiment 1) and with intermediate proficiency Spanish-English bilinguals living in a monolingual community (Experiment 2). To determine the influence of sentence constraint on cross-language activation, the critical words and their matched controls were inserted in low- and high-constraint sentences. In low-constraint sentences significant cognate facilitation was observed, suggesting that both languages were …

LING 1000 is a survey course that provides a non-technical exploration of the ways that language is used in America. It emphasizes language as a social institution and how values and goals of both public institutions and private groups shape, and are shaped by language and its use.

Prosodic Rhythm And African American English, Erik R. Thomas, Phillip M. Carter
Phillip M. Carter
Prosodic rhythm was measured for a sample of 20 African American and 20 European American speakers from North Carolina using the metric devised by Low, Grabe, and Nolan (2000), which involves comparisons of the durations of vowels in adjacent syllables. In order to gain historical perspective, the same technique was applied to the ex-slave recordings described in Bailey, Maynor, and Cukor-Avila (1991) and to recordings of five Southern European Americans born before the Civil War. In addition, Jamaicans, Hispanics of Mexican origin who spoke English as their L2, and Hispanics speaking Spanish served as control groups. Results showed that the …
