Additionally, it states that writing follows an organized structure, uses more content words, and aims to be error-free, whereas speaking utilizes gestures, intonation and allows for errors.
The document discusses the need to change how writing instruction is approached. It argues that if expectations for what students learn about writing are changing, then how teachers are prepared to teach writing also needs to change. Specifically, it claims that teachers can no longer rely solely on their own experiences with writing instruction, but must learn to teach students the craft of writing, not just mechanics and spelling.
The document discusses message writing. Some key points include:
1) Messages are used to convey information to the intended person. Common purposes include requesting someone to do a task, providing important updates, or explaining a situation.
2) Messages should include the time, date, a brief salutation, the name of the sender conveying the message, the clear message itself using reported speech, and be kept under 50 words.
3) An example message is provided from Himani informing her mother that her father said a few guests would be coming for dinner that day.

The document discusses a poem by Malayalam poet K. Sachidanandan called "Stammer", which explores stammering as a mode of speech and language in itself, containing thousands of meanings within the silences between words. The poet ponders whether stammering or language came first, and describes stammering as a sacrifice of meanings to God when one tries to express themselves. He suggests that if an entire people stammered, it would become their mother tongue, and that God himself must have stammered when creating man, which is why our words cannot always fully express what we intend.
The document discusses the language used in a magazine, noting that it uses both informal and colloquial language at times to relate to its target audience, as well as more formal language for certain content.

#5
was the only child and perhaps because of that I learned reading and writing early. At first, I learned reading upside-down by watching my father read his newspaper and asking him about the headlines!
In Chapter 7, Ahearn presents to us research of Shirley Brice Heath on the socialization to literacy of preschoolers in three communities. How did you learn to read and write? Was your experience similar to that of the children from Maintown? From Roadville? From Trackton? Do you think the way literacy events and practices took place at your home helped you or hindered you when you started school? Make sure to address all the components of the topic in your post :)

1)
I am a person who had quite a unique experience with books. I had a spectacular experience learning to read and write. Much of what I knew while young came from the lessons I received from my parents, especially my father. He was quite enthusiastic about teaching the letters of the alphabet. Going to pre-school also helped me become better at reading and writing. The singing of alphabetical letters and colors at pre-school made very easy for me to recognize the order and patterns of the alphabet.
However, my experience cannot be equated to that of the Maintown. I didn't have access to many books while growing up both at home at school. We relied so much on the charts made by our teachers in school to learn how to read and write. Things began changing as I got a little bit older as my father could come home with short story books of animal characters and read for me. I paid close attention as the stories were quite interesting and motivating. I remember trying so many times to read the books later. This experience lasted a while as I could still find it difficult reading and spelling certain words.
I believe I can relate more to the Roadville scenario as my pre-school had a few books that were having lots of pictures in them. These books helped a lot in learning how to read and write. On the same note, I can’t relate so much to Tackton as I was relatively familiar with words when I began pre-school. All thanks to the efforts of my dad.
2)
My parents were very big influences on my learning abilities as well the learning tools that they supplied me. When my parents dropped me off at daycare, our daycare provider, Linda, worked with all the kids on the basics which definitely helped as well. Not only did we have adult interaction but we also had other children there to help too. I also had an older sister that would help me and I looked up to her and wanted to be just like her so I would copy everything I could (numbers, letters, words).
My experience growing up was most similar to the Maintown children that Health studied. My family provided me with many books from birth (I am not sure if that is because they were hand-me-downs from my sister or what). Our bedroom was full of books like Dr. Suess. I believe that the literacy events and practices that took pla ...

In the spirit of World Literature, Poetry Moves (ed.

We focus especially on three poems dealing with language and identity, namely from Sujata Bhatt, Esther Vincent and Carol Ann Duffy.
This document discusses the relationship between language and culture in India. It notes that language reflects culture, and some cultural concepts cannot be directly translated. It provides examples of Indian English, including borrowing words directly from Hindi or Gujarati. While English can express the Indian ethos, overuse of "Indlish" can distort the discourse. English serves as a link language across India and is used in much Indian literature about India. When writers use English, they may borrow native words, translate semantics, or find equivalents to capture socio-cultural aspects and express the Indian reality. Overall, language and culture are deeply connected, so creativity with English should maintain this connection carefully.
1) The document describes the author's experience learning English as a second language in the Philippines from childhood through college. She grew up speaking Hiligaynon and was first exposed to English through reading scriptures and overhearing her siblings speak it.
2) Her older sisters began formally teaching her English around age 6 through reading assignments, spelling quizzes, and discouraging the use of dictionaries. At home and school, English was emphasized which helped develop her proficiency.
3) While challenges included mispronunciations and grammatical errors, winning writing contests and public speaking awards demonstrated her progress. Embarrassingly, her fast speech was even reported in college, showing there is always room for improvement.
Semantics and the native influence of Malayalam on English and LiteratureAmpat Varghese Koshy
The document discusses the influence of native languages like Malayalam on English semantics. It provides examples showing how Malayalam syntax can alter the meaning of English expressions. For instance, "Please do the needful" stems from literal Malayalam translation rather than "Please attend to this matter." The document also examines works by writers like Arundhati Roy and Raja Rao that blend English and native languages, changing English semantics. Their works develop new varieties of English with their own rules and meanings.

The document discusses the benefits of learning a second language. It argues that all U.S. students should be required to learn a second language as there are many cognitive, cultural, and economic benefits. Bilingualism can expand one's vocabulary, provide cultural understanding, and improve job prospects as more positions require or prefer multilingual candidates. For the U.S. to have meaningful cross-cultural exchange, more effort needs to be put into teaching and using second languages.
