Download or read book Englishes in Multilingual Contexts written by Ahmar Mahboob and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-06-17 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The chapters in this volume allow readers to develop a broad understanding of the issues around language variation and to recognise pedagogical implications of this work in multilingual contexts. The authors explore how variations in Englishes around the world relate to issues in English language teaching and learning. The English language has always existed alongside other languages. However, the last 200 years have shown a dramatic increase in the range, extent and context of contact between English and other languages. As a result of this contact, we find marked variations in Englishes around the world. The first part includes chapters of importance in studying English language variation in the context of education. The second part builds on an understanding of variation and identifies pedagogical possibilities that respect language variation and yet empower English language learners in diverse contexts.

Download or read book Language in Immigrant America written by Dominika Baran and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exploring the complex relationship between language and immigration in the United States, this timely book challenges mainstream, historically established assumptions about American citizenship and identity. Set within both a historical and a current political context, this book covers hotly debated topics such as language and ethnicity, the relationship between non-native English and American identity, perceptions and stereotypes related to foreign accents, code-switching, hybrid language forms such as Spanglish, language and the family, and the future of language in America. Work from the fields of linguistics, education policy, history, sociology, and politics are brought together to provide an accessible overview of the key issues. Through specific examples and case studies, immigrant America is presented as a diverse, multilingual, and multidimensional space in which identities are often hybridized and always multifaceted.

Download or read book The Latino Migration Experience in North Carolina written by Hannah Gill and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2010-11-01 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over recent decades, the Southeast has become a new frontier for Latin American migration to and within the United States, and North Carolina has had one of the fastest growing Latino populations in the nation. Here, Hannah Gill offers North Carolinians from all walks of life a better understanding of their Latino neighbors, bringing light instead of heat to local and national debates on immigration. Exploring the larger social forces behind demographic shifts, Gill shows both how North Carolina communities are facing the challenges and opportunities presented by these changes and how migrants experience the economic and social realities of their new lives. Latinos are no longer just visitors to the state but are part of the inevitably changing, long-term makeup of its population. Today, emerging migrant communities and the integration of Latino populations remain salient issues as the U.S. Congress stands on the verge of formulating comprehensive immigration reform for the first time in nearly three decades. Gill makes connections between hometowns and the increasing globalization of people, money, technology, and culture by shedding light on the many diverse North Carolina residents who are highly visible yet, as she shows, invisible at the same time.

Download or read book Creating and Digitizing Language Corpora written by Karen P. Corrigan and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-09-19 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book unites a range of approaches to the collection and digitization of diverse language corpora. Its specific focus is on best practices identified in the exploitation of these resources in landmark impact initiatives across different parts of the globe. The development of increasingly accessible digital corpora has coincided with improvements in the standards governing the collection, encoding and archiving of ‘Big Data’. Less attention has been paid to the importance of developing standards for enriching and preserving other types of corpus data, such as that which captures the nuances of regional dialects, for example. This book takes these best practices another step forward by addressing innovative methods for enhancing and exploiting specialized corpora so that they become accessible to wider audiences beyond the academy.

Download or read book The Latino Migration Experience in North Carolina, Revised and Expanded Second Edition written by Hannah Gill and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-07-18 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now thoroughly updated and revised—with a new chapter on the Dreamer movement and the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals Program (DACA)—this book offers North Carolinians a better understanding of their Latino neighbors, illuminating rather than enflaming debates on immigration. In the midst of a tumultuous political environment, North Carolina continues to feature significant in-migration of Mexicans and Latin Americans from both outside and inside the United States. Drawing on the voices of migrants as well as North Carolinians from communities affected by migration, Hannah Gill explains how larger social forces are causing demographic shifts, how the state is facing the challenges and opportunities presented by these changes, and how migrants experience the economic and social realities of their lives. Gill makes connections between our hometowns and the globalization of people, money, technology, and culture by shedding light on the many diverse North Carolina residents who are such a vital part of the state's population but are often unrecognized in many ways. This book is essential for everyone, including students and teachers, who wants to understand what is at stake for all parties and wants to work toward solutions.

Download or read book Latinos in the New South written by Owen J. Furuseth and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Latinos have emerged as one of the fastest-growing ethnic populations in the American South. A 'New South' is taking shape in a region where culture and class relations have traditionally been constructed along black-white divides and experience absorbing culturally or linguistically foreign immigrants has been limited. This book presents a multidisciplinary examination of the impacts and responses across the Southeastern United States to contemporary Latino immigration. The rapid and large-scale movement of Latinos into the region has challenged old precepts and forced Southerners to confront the impacts of globalization and transnationalism in their daily lives. Drawing on theoretical perspectives as well as empirical research, the work provides insights into the Latino experience in both urban and rural locales. Each chapter is centred on the nexus between the immigrants' experiences in settling and adapting to new lives in the American South and the construction of transformed social, economic, political and cultural spaces.

Download or read book Emerging Hispanicized English in the Nuevo New South written by Erin Callahan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-17 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a comprehensive overview of contemporary language shift and identity in a language community in the mid-Atlantic South to offer a unique window into ethnic dialect formation and sociolinguistic processes underpinning dialect acquisition. Drawing on data collected from over 100 interviews of members North Carolina Hispanicized English speakers in Durham, North Carolina, the book employs a quantitative approach and uses statistical software in analyzing the data collected to focus on the sociolinguistic variable of past tense unmarking to explore sociolinguistic processes at work in English language learner variation. The focus on a specific variable allows for the opportunity to explore specific processes in more detail, including the ways in which speakers accommodate regional and ethnic varieties of their peers and the internal and environmental factors guiding dialect acquisition. Illuminating new facets to the processes of language learning, language contact, and ethnolect emergence, this volume is key reading for students and researchers in second language acquisition and variationist sociolinguistics.
Download or read book The Emergence of Hispanic English in the Raleigh Community: A Sociophonetic Analysis written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though the recent influx of native Spanish speakers to the Southeastern United States has caused sociolinguists to pay closer attention to Hispanic English, most studies have focused their attention on the adaptation of segmental features, leaving rigorous examinations of suprasegmental features vastly underrepresented. Although some studies have commented on prosodic differences between Spanish, English, and dialects of English influenced by Spanish, most of these have relied on impressionistically based observations and have avoided systematic, quantifiably based examinations. Nevertheless, Ramus et al. (1999) were able to show quantifiable differences between Spanish and English, firmly classifying the former as more syllable-timed and the later as more stress-timed. The development of the Pairwise Variability Index (PVI) by Low and Grabe (1995) provides a method for examining the degree of stress-timing or syllable-timing in a given linguistic variety. Fought and Fought (2003) used PVI to show that bilingual Chicanos in California were more syllable-timed than the adjacent English-speaking community, though only for the first five syllables of an utterance. This thesis study examines the Spanish and English of adolescent bilinguals in Raleigh, NC and applies the PVI method in order to a) report empirically quantifiable differences between the two systems b) determine the rhythmic nature of Hispanic English and c) explore possible influences of southern American English on the Spanish of immigrants to the Mid-Atlantic South. As expected, findings show a range of rhythmic productions that is best represented on a continuum, where Spanish is located on one endpoint, the English of native monolinguals on the other, and the English of Hispanic immigrants somewhere in between. This analysis provides further insights on the bilateral affects of Spanish-English contact situations. The nature of prosody as a substrate feature in emerging varieties of Hispanic English in.
