Book Synopsis Medical communication between Plain Language and Einfache Sprache by : Giulia Pedrini
Download or read book Medical communication between Plain Language and Einfache Sprache written by Giulia Pedrini and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2024-08-16 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Expert-lay communication in the medical field requires the utmost attention to readers’ or listeners’ needs and competences. If these are neglected, laypeople’s comprehension of the message is likely to be negatively affected. Text types like package leaflets and informed consents have been the object of countless studies. In this volume, Giulia Pedrini examines a new document type: the layperson summary of clinical trials. She conducts her analysis from a contrastive and translational perspective in three languages (English, German, and Italian). All texts are instances of interlingual translations of simplified documents written in Plain Language; a still widely unexplored niche within the field of translation studies.
Book Synopsis Easy Language – Plain Language – Easy Language Plus by : Christiane Maaß
Download or read book Easy Language – Plain Language – Easy Language Plus written by Christiane Maaß and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows how accessible communication, and especially easy-to-understand languages, should be designed in order to become instruments of inclusion. It examines two well-established easy-to-understand varieties: Easy Language and Plain Language, and shows that they have complementary profiles with respect to four central qualities: comprehensibility, perceptibility, acceptability and stigmatisation potential. The book introduces Easy and Plain Language and provides an outline of their linguistic, sociological and legal profiles: What is the current legal framework of Easy and Plain Language? What do the texts look like? Who are the users? Which other groups are involved in the production and use of Easy and Plain Language offers? Which qualities are a hazard to acceptability and, thus, enhance their stigmatisation potential? The book also proposes another easy-to-understand variety: Easy Language Plus. This variety balances the four qualities and is modelled in the present book.
Book Synopsis The Impact of Plain Language on Legal English in the United Kingdom by : Christopher Williams
Download or read book The Impact of Plain Language on Legal English in the United Kingdom written by Christopher Williams and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-23 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers insights into the ways in which plain language has influenced the language of the law in the United Kingdom, critically reflecting on its historical development and future directions. The book opens with an overview of the theoretical frameworks underpinning plain language and a brief history of plain language initiatives as a foundation from which to outline ongoing debates on the opportunities and challenges of using plain language in the legal domain. The volume details strands where plain language has had considerable impact thus far on legal English in the UK, notably in legislative drafting, but it also explores areas in which plain language has made fewer inroads, such as the language of court judgments and that of online terms and conditions. The book looks ahead to unpack highly topical areas within the plain language debate, including the question of design and visualisation and the ramifications of digitalisation, contributing to ongoing conversations on the importance of plain language both in the UK and beyond. This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars interested in the intersection of language and the law as well as related disciplinary areas such as applied linguistics and English for Specific Purposes.
Book Synopsis Accessibility – Health Literacy – Health Information by : Sarah Ahrens
Download or read book Accessibility – Health Literacy – Health Information written by Sarah Ahrens and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2022-10-04 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent studies show that more than half of the German population have difficulties in accessing, understanding, appraising, and applying health information, thus giving accessibility in health communication new traction. This volume links research and practice in the areas of accessible communication, health information and health literacy.

This book was released on 2023-11-25 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as marketing without the right approach is insignificant, writing without the right words is unacceptable. Recipe for Literary Success is an initiative to help you write the ‘right’ way; from learning to structure and format your literary piece to unraveling the secrets of true marketing, this book helps you to impact and move the audience. Furthermore, interestingly relevant stories are scattered across the book to help you digest complex definitions through real-world examples. Any recipe is incomplete without ‘expert research’ that has consistently added flavor to every chapter in the book, to expose you to newer perspectives. These bits of expert advice are derived from a wide range of ‘research papers and e-books’ written by renowned professionals specializing in the content industry. Not to mention, every chapter ends with a practice session to help you summarize your learnings and give them a shot before you move to the next mind-boggling part. In short, the book wants to answer the ‘what’ unlike the generic ‘how’ in writing and marketing because it’s not about how it’s done but what is done that matters!
Book Synopsis Accessible Communication: A Cross-country Journey by : Elisa Perego
Download or read book Accessible Communication: A Cross-country Journey written by Elisa Perego and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Easy-to-Understand (E2U) text practices enable and facilitate accessible communication. E2U refers both to Plain and to Easy Language. These two powerful methods of language and content comprehension enhancement are illustrated through several examples in English, starting from the seminal role of the Anglophone world in promoting plain and lucid style. Originally implemented in written texts, today the employment of these simplified language varieties should infiltrate new communication services that are more complex and multifaceted. Thanks to the EASIT project, the integration of E2U strategies into a selection of audiovisual services is being successfully researched. After advancing simplification proposals in the area of subtitling and audio description, Elisa Perego reports on the results of a cross-country survey conducted during the initial stages of the EASIT project: She pinpoints the background, activity, and training experience of those who currently work in the sector of E2U in Europe, and identifies the skills and the competences of, as well as a training path and materials for, future hybrid professionals.
Book Synopsis The Dictionary of Accessible Communication by : Silvia Hansen-Schirra
Download or read book The Dictionary of Accessible Communication written by Silvia Hansen-Schirra and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Terminology on Accessible Communication has primarily evolved and been published within the borders of a given country with no or only little exchange across these borders. Since English can be regarded as the lingua franca of science, this first German–English dictionary of Accessible Communication will help to promote international exchange and an international discourse on this topic by attempting to define concepts that go beyond the scope of a single-country centered approach. The terminological work for this dictionary is based on the German Handbook of Accessible Communication. Most of the handbook’s contents are language-independent and applicable to other recipient communities. On the basis of the German terminology, the English equivalents, definitions and explanations were researched. The dictionary contributes to the development of a standardised terminology across languages and cultures.
Book Synopsis The Routledge Handbook of Intralingual Translation by : Linda Pillière
Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Intralingual Translation written by Linda Pillière and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-02-27 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Intralingual Translation provides the first comprehensive overview of intralingual translation, or the rewording or rewriting of a text. This Handbook aims to examine intralingual translation from every possible angle. The introduction gives an overview of the theoretical, political, and ideological issues involved and is followed by the first section which investigates intralingual translation from a diachronic perspective covering the modernization of classical texts. Subsequent sections consider different dialects and registers and intralingual translation from one language mode to another, explore concepts such as self-translating, transediting, and the role of copyeditors, and investigate the increasing interest in the role of intralingual translation and second language learning. Final sections examine recent developments in intralingual translation such as the subtitling of speech for the hard-of-hearing, simultaneous Easy Language interpreting, and respeaking in parliamentary debates. By providing an in-depth study on intralingual translation, the Handbook sheds light on other important areas of translation that are often bypassed, including publishing practices, authorship, and ideological constraints. Authored by a range of established and new voices in the field, this is the essential guide to intralingual translation for advanced students and researchers of translation studies.

Book Synopsis Popularizing Science by : Hélène Ledouble
Download or read book Popularizing Science written by Hélène Ledouble and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-06-10 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Media coverage of scientific issues is a highly complex process. It involves making a specialized field accessible to the general public, without necessarily disseminating the associated scientific terms or knowledge. The terminological interactions between press discourses and scientific knowledge are presented within the field of agroecology. The analysis of textual data focuses on articles in the general press in French and English, devoted to plant protection practices using natural mechanisms (biological control). This book provides a terminological and cognitive overview of the issues involved in popularizing science in a rapidly expanding field, and of the challenges to be met in the constantly evolving environmental communication sector.

Book Synopsis Translation, Mediation and Accessibility for Linguistic Minorities by : María Pilar Castillo Bernal
Download or read book Translation, Mediation and Accessibility for Linguistic Minorities written by María Pilar Castillo Bernal and published by Frank & Timme GmbH. This book was released on 2022-04-15 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Linguistic minorities are everywhere, and they are diverse. In this context, linguistic mediation activities – whether translation or interpreting – are key to the social inclusion of any kind of linguistic minority. In most societies autochthonous linguistic minorities coexist with foreignspeaking minorities and people with (or without) disabilities who rely linguistically or medially adapted on texts to access information. The present volume draws on this broad understanding of the concept of linguistic minorities to explore some of the newest developments in the field of translation studies and linguistics. The articles are structured around three main axes: • accessibility of content, especially audiovisual translation • intralingual translation, including initiatives regarding plain language, easy-to-read and easy language • mediation for minorities in a broader sense and language ideologies.
Book Synopsis Immigration and Quality of Life in Ageing Societies by : Aeneas Zi Wang
Download or read book Immigration and Quality of Life in Ageing Societies written by Aeneas Zi Wang and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book argues that a new perspective on immigration is needed. As many advanced economies are ageing, and their populations stagnate or decline, immigrants are increasingly required to fill in the gaps left behind by shrinking workforces. Against this backdrop, the outdated view that it is – and can only be – a privilege for immigrants to move temporarily from less to more developed economies needs a rethink. In particular, questions about how attractive a host destination can be for immigrants; not just in economic, but also in social, political, linguistic, and cultural terms should be raised. Considering in detail the situation in Japan and Germany – Japan where there are hardly any convenience stores without foreign employees, Germany where retirement homes would no longer function without foreign nursing staff – the book analyses migration to these two countries in different aspects such as education, training, and labour market participation, and policies and actions on the part of the state and policymakers in rendering moving to and living in these countries worthwhile. Bringing together leading scholars active in diverse aspects of migration in Japan and Germany, this book will be a valuable resource to students and scholars with an interest in immigration issues in these two countries specifically, and Europe and Asia more broadly.
