Описание: In Corpus Linguistics and Sociolinguistics, Beke Hansen analyses variation and change in the modal systems of three second-language varieties of English in Asia by taking a sociolinguistic approach to corpus data. Her study focuses on the modal and semi-modal verbs of strong obligation and necessity in Hong Kong English, Indian English, and Singapore English based on the relevant ICE component corpora. She adopts a typologically-informed perspective on variation in World Englishes by comparing the structures of the speakers’ first languages with the structures of the emergent varieties in the expression of epistemic modality. Beyond this, she analyses language change by constructing apparent-time scenarios to compensate for the lack of diachronic corpora in World Englishes.

Описание: Le determinant demonstratif est courant en francais et en neerlandais et ses emplois situationnels, textuels et memoriels de base se recouvrent dans les deux langues. Malgre ces ressemblances macro-structurelles entre les deux langues, il existe plusieurs differences plus subtiles entre le fonctionnement semantique du SNdemonstratif en francais et en neerlandais, qui sont peu decrites et mal theorisees. De plus, plusieurs de ces dissymetries donnent effectivement lieu a des erreurs chez les apprenants neerlandophones et francophones du francais et du neerlandais respectivement. Cet ouvrage fournit une description contrastive detaillee et nuancee du determinant demonstratif en francais et en neerlandais en L1 et en L2. L’auteur adopte dans ses analyses une demarche interdisciplinaire originale se situant au confluent de la semantique referentielle, de la linguistique de corpus et de l’acquisition du francais et du neerlandais langues etrangeres.

Описание:

This book is the first major sociophonetic work on the urban accent of Aberdeen in North-East Scotland. The study shows how the accent has changed following the large-scale immigration from other parts of Scotland and the UK since the 1970s. It is rooted in a dialect contact framework and based on sociolinguistic interviews with a stratified sample of 44 Aberdonians. The study uses an innovative method to assess the importance of the individual speaker in innovating and conserving the local accent. Based on six phonological variables, it shows how the traditional variants are replaced or marginalised, supraregional forms gain ground and strongly marked forms typical of Glaswegian or London English are added to the local feature pool.

Описание:

Studies in Language and Linguistics
General Editors- Geoffrey Leech, Department of Modern English Language, Lancaster University and Jenny Thomas, School of English and Linguistics, University of Wales, Bangor
Broad-ranging and authoritative, Studies in Language and Linguistics is an occasional series
incorporating major new work in all areas of linguistics.

Variation in English- Multi-Dimensional Studies provides both a comprehensive view into a relatively new technique for studying language, and a diverse, exciting collection of studies of variation in English.
The first part of the book provides an explanation of multi-dimensional (MD) analysis, a research technique for studying language variation. MD is a corpus-based approach developed by Doug Biber that facilitates large-scale studies of language variation and the investigation of research questions that were previously intractable. The second part of the book contains studies that apply Biber's original MD analysis of English to new domains. These studies cover the historical evolution of English; specialized domains such as medical writing and oral proficiency testing; and dialect variation, including gender and British/American.
The third part of the book contains studies that conduct new MD analyses, covering adult/child language differences, 18th century speech and writing, and discourse complexity. Readers of this book will become familiar with the analytical techniques of multi-dimensional analysis, with its applicability to a wide variety of language issues, and with the findings of important studies previously published in diverse journals as well as new studies appearing for the first time.
