Changing Language, Remaining Pygmy,
2012
Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris
Changing Language, Remaining Pygmy, Serge Bahuchet
Human Biology Open Access Pre-Prints
In this article I am illustrating the linguistic diversity of African Pygmy populations in order to better address their anthropological diversity and history. I am also introducing a new method, based on the analysis of specialized vocabulary, to reconstruct the substratum of some languages they speak. I show that Pygmy identity is not based on their languages, which have often been borrowed from neighboring non-Pygmy farmer communities with whom each Pygmy group is linked. Understanding the nature of this partnership, quite variable in history, is essential to address Pygmy languages, identity and history. Finally, I show that only a multidisciplinary …

Effect Of Dialect On Identification And Severity Of Speech Impairment In Indigenous Australian Children, Bethany J. Toohill, Sharynne Mcleod, Jane Mccormack
Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International (APRCi)
This study investigated the effect of dialectal difference on identification and rating of severity of speech impairment in children from Indigenous Australian backgrounds. The speech of 15 Indigenous Australian children identified by their parents/caregivers and teachers as having ‘difficulty talking and making speech sounds’ was assessed using the Diagnostic Evaluation of Articulation and Phonology. Fourteen children were identified with speech impairment on the Diagnostic Evaluation of Articulation and Phonology using Standard Australian English (AusE) as the target pronunciation; whereas 13 were identified using Australian Aboriginal English (AAE) as the target. There was a statistically significant decrease in seven children’s severity …

An Application Of Discourse Analysis Methodology In The Exegesis Of John 17,
2012
Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, Wake Forest, NC
An Application Of Discourse Analysis Methodology In The Exegesis Of John 17, Thomas W. Hudgins
Liberty Theological Review
This study applies discourse analysis methodology to the study of the seventeenth chapter of John. Instead of adopting the typical three-fold division of Jesus' prayer based upon the three referents (Jesus, the immediate disciples, and future disciples), greater attention is given to Jesus' requests and final commitment, the mainline verbs. By giving more structural significance to the mainline verbs, the structural division and natural outline of Jesus' prayer become more evident.

Clausal Negation As Raising In San Dionisio Ocotepec Zapotec,
2012
University at Albany, State University of New York
Clausal Negation As Raising In San Dionisio Ocotepec Zapotec, George Aaron Broadwell
Anthropology Faculty Scholarship
This paper argues that clausal negation in San Dionisio Ocotepec Zapotec is best analysed as a kind of raising phenomenon. This analysis correctly predicts a number of facts about the interaction of word order and aspect in the language.
