This article aims to recast the properties of topic-prominent languages and their differences from subject-prominent languages as documented in the functionalist literature into the framework of the Principle-and-Parameter approach. It provides a configurational definition of the topic construction called Topic Phrase (TP), with the topic marker as its head. The availablity of TP enables topic prominent languages to develop various topic structures with properties such as morphological marking; cross-categorial realization of topics and comments; and mutiple application of topicalization. The article elaborates the notion of topic prominence. A topic prominent language is characterized as one that tends to activate the TP and to make full use of the configuration. Typically, it has a larger number and variety of highly grammaticalized topic markers in the Lexicon and permits a variety of syntactic categories to occur in the specifier position and the complement position of TP.
This paper introduces the Kam version of the Multilingual Assessment Instrument for Narratives (LITMUS-MAIN). Kam is a minority language in southern China which belongs to the Kam-Tai language family and is spoken by the Kam ethnic minority people. Adding Kam to MAIN not only enriches the typological diversity of MAIN but also allows researchers to study children’s narrative development in a sociocultural context vastly distinctly different from the frequently examined WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic) societies. Moreover, many Kam-speaking children are bilingual ethnic minority children who are “left-behind” children living in Mainland China, growing up in a unique socio-communicative environment
Social media, asthe fifth estate, increasingly influence public dis-courses and play a major role in shaping public opinion.Undoubt-edly, they have the potential to promote participation and democra-cy. On the other side, they also constitute a risk for democratic soci-eties, as the spread of hate speech and fake news has shown. As aresponse,forms of counterspeech organisedby civil society have emerged in social media to counter the normalisation of hate speech and democracy-threateningdiscourses. In order to influence dis-course in social media in terms of the fifth estate, counterspeech campaigns must be visible alsoquantitatively. In this ethnographic contrastive study, I analysed the activitiesof the German and Finn-ish Facebook groups of the network #iamhere international. The in-tensity and continuity of their activities is obviously influenced by their strategic organisation: conventionalised rules support them whereas lacking or inconsequent rules seemed to be counterpro-ductive.
Although students make a great effort to learn a foreign language, it is an undeniable fact that they have some difficulties of understanding during communication. One of the prominent reasons of this situation is their having lack of vocabulary rather than grammar knowledge. This situation also effects the motivation of students in the process of learning negatively. Especially, words that have morphological similarities, but semantically different ones cause a problem in the process of learning, which can not be overcome without getting help professionally. The morphological similarities of the words lead students fail to understand different meanings of these kinds of words. For this reason, the purpose of this study is to investigate the words which cause difficulties because of the morphological similarities for the students to learn. As the study handles the subject in this concrete perspective, it contributes to the teachers having problems in teaching aforementioned difficult words.
The aim of this article is to compare migration as an intercultural confrontation and translation as a phenomenon creating a "Third Space" for cultural negotiation. In this frame it analyses what role interculturality plays in both areas and how these areas mutually reshape the other.
The study deals with how the deconstructive approaches that have triggered a new understanding in the field influence translation. In this context, the concept of interculturality brought both by translation and migration, should not be considered as a medium for harmonization and assimilation, but as a means of respect to the foreign that challenges the asymmetries and dominance between the powers. In this sense, the study will demonstrate how intercultural migration and translation enabling constructive and productive interaction can function as a dynamic potential for cultures.
Since translation and migration are two major restorative factors for intercultural communication, they create the mobility of people so of cultures which results in a reframing of the obsolete traditional perception of culture that relies on an isolated and homogenous culture model. This communication enables not only a new understanding of the other and a convergence of the cultures involved, but it also promotes a realisation of the self and its borders
Ĉlánek je zasazen do kontextu vyuĉování němĉiny jako cizího jazyka. Zabývá se vztahem mezi deskriptivním, resp. narativním textem a textovou prací zaloţenou na naraci ţáka na straně jedné a emocemi ţáka na straně druhé. Výsledky dosavadních výzkumŧ tohoto vztahu, jeţ vycházejí z posledních konceptŧ narace jako základní existenciální struktury bytí, naznaĉují, ţe narativní text a receptivní i produktivní narativní pracovní postupy ve vyuĉování a uĉení se jazyku indukují specifický potenciál pozitivních emocí a postojŧ ţáka.
Na základě konfrontace běžných pojetí žákovské heterogenity s vybranými filozofickými a pedagogickými pohledy na osobnost žáka a na výchovu k vzájemnosti autorka nejprve požaduje rozšíření pojmu "heterogenita". Dále sestavuje elementární typologii úloh pro dva didaktické postupy využívající žákovskou heterogenitu v jazykovém vyučování a ve výchově k vzájemnosti.
