The document discusses compiling a monolingual dictionary for native speakers. It covers topics such as what constitutes a lexical database, the social functions of dictionaries for native languages, researching words and their histories, and incorporating corpus data while allowing for other types of information. The role of dictionaries is to provide an authoritative inventory of a language while explaining meanings and usages.
"In general, usage labels provide specific information about the domain of application of the definition. In the more abstract sense ..., a usage label is to be taken as a higher-level instruction, as a meta-linguistic device. This means that it cannot be equated with a definition itself: it restricts the definition to a certain context. The definition of a word given by a dictionary entry is intended for a group of users belonging to those who speak or want to speak the standard form of the language of the dictionary in question.
With the rapid development of economic globalization, the intercommunication between different cultures have also been progressively enhanced. Taboo language as a cultural phenomenon has gained a common concern. At the same time, appellations play an important role in cross-cultural communication, using the proper address terms may help the communication go smoothly. So appellation taboos should be taken enough attention. The appellation taboos have been studied to some extent over the past years. However, because the appellation taboos have sensitive nature, most people often avoid talking about this topic. Through comparing differences between English and Chinese, this paper aims at reducing some misunderstanding during the cross-cultural communication and making us communicate smoothly. In addition to the definition of taboo and appellation, this paper also studies appellation taboo language in the following types: naming, position, race and gender. Based on the research, the paper shows the differences between Chinese and English and then give the reason. At the end of this paper, four ways are mentioned to help us use appellation taboos correctly in cross-cultural communication.

How do we generate spoken words This issue is a fasci-natin.docxwellesleyterresa
How do we generate spoken words? This issue is a fasci-
nating one. In normal fluent conversation we produce two
to three words per second, which amounts to about four syl-
lables and ten or twelve phonemes per second. These words
are continuously selected from a huge repository, the men-
tal lexicon, which contains at least 50–100 thousand words
in a normal, literate adult person1. Even so, the high speed
and complexity of word production does not seem to make
it particularly error-prone. We err, on average, no more
than once or twice in 1000 words2. This robustness no
doubt has a biological basis; we are born talkers. But in ad-
dition, there is virtually no other skill we exercise as much as
word production. In no more than 40 minutes of talking a
day, we will have produced some 50 million word tokens by
the time we reach adulthood.
The systematic study of word production began in the
late 1960s, when psycholinguists started collecting and ana-
lyzing corpora of spontaneous speech errors (see Box 1).
The first theoretical models were designed to account for
the patterns of verbal slips observed in these corpora. In a
parallel but initially independent development, psycholin-
guists adopted an already existing chronometric approach
to word production (Box 1). Their first models were de-
signed to account for the distribution of picture naming la-
tencies obtained under various experimental conditions.
Although these two approaches are happily merging in
current theorizing, all existing models have a dominant kin-
ship: their ancestry is either in speech error analysis or it is
in chronometry. In spite of this dual perspective, there is a
general agreement on the processes to be modeled.
Producing words is a core part of producing utterances; ex-
plaining word production is part of explaining utterance
production3,4. In producing an utterance, we go from some
communicative intention to a decision about what infor-
mation to express – the ‘message’. The message contains one
or more concepts for which we have words in our lexicon,
and these words have to be retrieved. They have syntactic
properties, such as being a noun or a transitive verb, which
we use in planning the sentence, that is in ‘grammatical en-
coding’. These syntactic properties taken together, we call
the word’s ‘lemma’. Words also have morphological and
phonological properties that we use in preparing their syl-
labification and prosody, that is in ‘phonological encoding’.
Ultimately, we must prepare the articulatory gestures for
each of these syllables, words and phrases in the utterance.
The execution of these gestures is the only overt part of the
entire process.
This review will first introduce the two kinds of word
production model. It will then turn to the computational
steps in producing a word: conceptual preparation, lexical
selection, phonological encoding, phonetic encoding and
articulation. This review does not cover models of word
reading.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
