Detailed description of Middle English Period including vowel and consonant changes, inflectional endings, loss of grammatical gender and French influence in English language.
Phonemes & Consonant Allophones
The phoneme can be defined as "the smallest contrastive linguistic unit which may bring about a change of meaning" (Gimson, A.C. (2008), Cruttenden, A., ed., The Pronunciation of English (7 ed.)). This definition can be clarified by a practice called minimal pair which is listing pairs of words which are different in meaning and phonologically distinct only in one phonological element.
Minimal pair can be illustrated in the following examples:
The words "pin" /pɪn/ and "pan" /pæn/ are different only in their middle sounds i.e. /ɪ/ & /æ/. Therefore the sounds /ɪ/ & /æ/ are considered to be different phonemes.
The words "pill" /pɪl/ and "bill" /bɪl/ are different only in their initial sounds i.e. /p/ & /b/. Therefore the sounds /p/ & /b/ are considered to be different phonemes.
An allophone, on the other hand, is one of a set of multiple possible spoken sounds (or phones) used to pronounce a single phoneme. It can be considered to be variations of a phoneme and doesn't change the meaning of a word.
e.g. the phoneme /p/ in the word "pill" /pɪl/ can be aspirated [pʰɪl ]. So the aspirated [pʰ] is considered to be the allophone of the phoneme /p/
Language and social variation
This document summarizes George Yule's work on language and social variation. It discusses how language differs based on social class, education level, and occupation. Some key points:
- Language varies between social classes/groups like middle vs working class, which are differentiated by education and job type.
- Educated people tend to use more formal language features while those with less education rely on social markers and vernacular features.
- People adjust their speech style based on context, shifting between formal and informal registers.
- Prestige also influences language as people may adopt standard language features in situations with overt prestige or vernacular features in covert prestige situations.
- Social dialects, education,
Syllable definition and_description
The syllable is the basic unit of speech that is studied both phonetically and phonologically. [1] Phonetically, the syllable consists of a center with little airflow obstruction (usually a vowel) surrounded by segments with greater obstruction. [2] Phonologically, the prevailing view is that the syllable has a hierarchical structure with three constituents - the Onset, Peak (nucleus/vowel), and Coda. [3] This structure can be represented graphically using tree diagrams.
The study of language
This document provides an overview of the study of language and linguistics. It discusses what language is, the components of language including phonemes, morphemes, lexemes, syntax and context. It also describes the main branches of linguistics such as phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and comparative philology. Traditional grammar and its rules are explained.
Morphology and word formation processes
In English language, words are formed in a various way. These ways are discussed with examples in this slide.

African american vernacular english
African American Vernacular English is a systematic dialect of English that originated from the Southern United States and spread north with the Great Migration of African Americans in the early 20th century. It developed from English spoken by slaves and includes unique grammatical patterns and vocabulary compared to Standard English. Examples of features include using "be" without subject-verb agreement, double negatives like "ain't got no money", and zero copula as in "she the first one started us off".
Chapter 6: Morphology
This document discusses morphology, which is the study of word formation and structure. It defines morphemes as the smallest units of meaning or function. Morphemes can be free, meaning they can stand alone as words, or bound, meaning they cannot stand alone and are attached to other morphemes. The document provides examples of different types of morphemes and discusses their categories and functions in word formation.
Language change
This document provides an overview of language change from both a historical and sociological perspective. It discusses the different types and levels of language change, including sound changes, lexical changes, semantic changes, and syntactic changes. Several theories of language change are presented, such as functional theory, random fluctuation theory, substratum theory, and the S-curve theory. The document also examines the routes language change can take, such as through language learning, contact, social differentiation, and natural usage processes. Finally, it outlines the major levels of language change - phonological, syntactic, semantic, and lexical - providing examples of sound changes like assimilation, dissimilation, and the Great Vowel Shift.
Minimal pairs
The document discusses vowels and consonants in English. It provides information on the positions of the tongue and lips when producing different types of vowels, including close vowels, mid vowels, and open vowels. Examples of words containing different vowel sounds are given. The document also contains exercises practicing distinguishing between similar vowel sounds like /i:/ and /ɪ/, as well as /ʊ/ and /u:/.
AMERICAN ENGLISH
This document discusses the varieties of American English and their development. It addresses the differences between African American Vernacular English (AAVE) and White American English Vernaculars (WAEV). AAVE developed from contact between English and African languages, while WAEVs developed by introducing features from British English varieties. Today, the contact theory of AAVE's development is more widely accepted. The document also examines features of AAVE such as absence of copula and consonant clusters, and discusses attitudes towards southern accents.
Variation and change.pptx
This document discusses language variation and change. It defines language variation as differences in language between dialects and how languages evolve over time due to internal and external factors. The key points made are:
- Language variation includes differences between dialects and how languages change over time due to social, geographic, political and other influences.
- Reasons for language change include the rise of new concepts, discoveries, migration, and prestige. Changes can occur in sounds, morphology, syntax, semantics and vocabulary.
- Regional dialects develop when geographic separation reduces communication between language groups, allowing innovations to diverge over time into distinct dialects and potentially separate languages.
British Accent
The document provides information about various British accents including the Manchester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Nottingham, Bristol, and Leeds accents. It discusses key features of each accent such as distinctive pronunciations of vowels and consonants. For example, it notes that the Manchester accent involves over-enunciation of vowel sounds and avoidance of ng coalescence, while the Liverpool accent replaces /θ/ with /f/ and may pronounce /k/ as /x/ at the ends of words.
History of the english language
The history of the English language began with the invasion of Britain in the 5th century AD by three Germanic tribes - the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. They drove the native Celtic speakers west and north and brought their Germanic language, which developed into Old English. In 1066, William the Conqueror invaded and the Norman French language became dominant for a time among ruling classes. English re-emerged as dominant by the 14th century. As the British Empire expanded, English adopted words from many other languages and varieties of English emerged around the world. Today American English is particularly influential globally due to US cultural exports.
Weak ,Strong Syllables2
The document discusses weak and strong syllables in English. Weak syllables tend to be unstressed and may contain reduced vowel sounds like schwa. They often occur in function words like "the" and prefixes/suffixes. Strong syllables are stressed and have clearer vowel sounds. The types of segments that can make up syllables and examples of words with different syllable structures are provided.
Lexicology as a science
Lexicology is the scientific study of words and vocabulary in a language. It examines words' origins, development, and current usage. Lexicology is closely related to other linguistic fields like phonetics, grammar, and stylistics. It studies words as part of a system, while lexicography focuses on individual words for dictionary purposes. There are two main approaches in lexicology - synchronic looks at vocabulary at a point in time, while diachronic examines changes over time. Methods of investigation include observation, classification of facts, generalization of rules, and verification. Contrastive analysis compares vocabulary between languages.
English vowel system
The English vowel system is determined by the position of the lips, tongue, and palate. Vowels are produced without obstruction to airflow from the lungs. Their sounds are created by subtle changes in the shape of the vocal tract. For example, the vowel sound /i:/ as in "bean" is made with the tongue raised towards the roof of the mouth, while /u:/ as in "boon" has the back of the tongue raised. Vowels also differ based on lip rounding and length.
Accents and dialects in UK: Ireland
Belfast and Dublin accents differ due to different influences on their development. Belfast speech combines features from northern and southern Ireland and is similar to Scottish accents with post-vocalic /r/ and rising intonation. Dublin speech was not influenced by Scotland and maintains distinctions like /a/ and /ɑ:/ that are not always distinct in other Irish accents. Consonants like /θ/ and /ð/ may be pronounced as stops in Dublin English before /r/ and other consonants.
English Consonants - Place of articulation
The document describes the place and manner of articulation of different English consonant sounds. It explains that consonants can be oral if the soft palate is raised during articulation, or nasal if the soft palate is lowered. Various consonants are classified based on where in the mouth they are articulated (bilabial, labiodental, dental, alveolar, palato-alveolar, palatal, velar, labial-velar). Key consonants for each place of articulation are identified, including whether they are plosives, fricatives, affricates, approximants, or laterals.
English accents around the world
The document discusses several English accents and dialects around the world, including Welsh English, London British English, Australian English, South African English, Irish English, and Texas American English. It provides information on the vocabulary, spelling, pronunciation, and other linguistic characteristics of each variety. Videos are included that exemplify the different accents.
Australian English vs. Standard British English
This document summarizes key aspects of the phonology of Australian English (AusE). It discusses the vowel and consonant systems of AusE compared to Received Pronunciation (RP), noting differences in vowel quality and length. It also describes three social varieties of AusE - Broad, General, and Cultivated - and their associations with class, gender, and geography. Additionally, it examines the high rising tone feature of AusE and debates about its social meanings and prevalence among younger speakers. Sources consulted for the information are also listed.
Standardisation of the english language
The standardization of the English language occurred over centuries through a natural consensus due to various social factors. The document then outlines the history and evolution of the English language from Old English origins in 500AD, through the Middle English period beginning in 1066AD with the Norman conquest of England, the Early Modern English period starting in 1500 with the introduction of classical words, and finally the Late Modern English period from 1800 characterized by a large expansion of vocabulary due to the industrial revolution and British Empire.
Historical linguistics 2
There are several types of language change that occur over time, including sound changes, morphological changes, and semantic changes. Sound changes involve changes in pronunciation and happen naturally as languages evolve, such as the Great Vowel Shift in English. Morphological changes include changes to word structure through processes like borrowing affixes from other languages or regularizing irregular forms through analogy. Semantic changes refer to changes in word meanings.
Linking in phonetic [linguistic]
This presentation discusses techniques for linking words in English speech, including double sounds, omitting sounds, changing sounds (assimilation), and blending sounds. It provides examples of each technique and instructs listeners to practice linking words in sentences. The document aims to teach non-native English speakers how to link words to sound more fluent when speaking. Mastering these linking techniques can result in speech that flows more naturally like a native speaker.
Importance of phonology
Phonology is the study of the sound systems of spoken human languages. It examines the production of speech sounds, the structure and patterning of sounds in a given language, and how sounds combine and change depending on their environment. Phonology has several branches including phonemics, which studies phonemes - the basic units of sound that distinguish meaning. It also examines related concepts like allophones, morphophonemes, and phones. The systematic study of a language's phonology can provide insight into how and why sounds change over time and vary between dialects.
Language varieties as boundaries and as national identity
This document discusses language varieties and national identity. It defines different types of identities, including master identities, interactional identities, personal identities, and relational identities. It examines two ways of viewing language and identity - based on emotional connection or territory. National language plays a role in unity and distinguishing a nation. Language can be a marker of social identity. The boundaries of linguistic identity are permeable as individuals may choose to adopt a new language. When constructing a national identity, reformers in India subsumed fragmented groups into a modern concept of nation. Ideologies about African Americans are reflected in views about African American Vernacular English.
Geordies
This document discusses common stereotypes about people from Newcastle, England known as Geordies. Some of the stereotypes mentioned are that Geordies love partying and drinking, are obsessed with their looks and fashion, and are often portrayed as fat drunk men with their shirts off. The document also notes stereotypes that Geordies are not very intelligent, especially those with stronger accents, and that they are very passionate about football. Videos are linked providing examples of these stereotypes.

Varieties presentation final draft
This document discusses the history and current state of Tyneside English. It provides background on how the geographic isolation of the Northeast led to the preservation of older Germanic and Scandinavian influences. While the Norman conquest had less impact, more recent Scottish language contact has shaped the dialect. Contemporary research examines the levelling of traditional variants between social groups and the diffusion of features from other dialects like TH-fronting. Resources like the Newcastle Electronic Corpus of Tyneside English are used to study historical change over time in the region.
LinkedIn API
The document discusses LinkedIn APIs and how they can be used by brands and developers. It provides examples of how the LinkedIn API has been used to build plugins, tools, and experiences that allow users to find products and services, promote brands, and make connections. These tools personalize experiences for users by accessing their LinkedIn profile data with their permission. The document also outlines performance reporting and next steps for using the LinkedIn API commercially.
Strategies To Acquire and Retain Top Talent
The document discusses common problems in talent acquisition and retention. It notes that employee turnover rates are around 15% on average across industries, costing around 20% of an employee's annual salary to replace them. Disengaged employees are less productive and increase business costs. The document recommends having a clear hiring plan with well-defined job requirements. It also stresses the importance of effectively marketing a company's brand to attract the right talent. Conducting stay interviews can help identify reasons for employee insecurity or disengagement to improve retention. The workforce survey platform QuestionPro is presented as a potential solution.
Identify your top talent
This document outlines a process for identifying, developing, promoting, and retaining top talent within an organization. It involves rating employees on their performance and leadership behavior using a matrix to group them into clusters. This allows the organization to identify future leaders, top talent that should be given more responsibility, and areas that need specific support or attention to develop the talent within each cluster. The goal is to have a systematic approach for managing an organization's top talent.
Scouse
Scouse is the accent and dialect of Liverpool, Merseyside, England. It originated in the mid-19th century due to the influx of Irish and Welsh immigrants into the port city of Liverpool, creating a unique mixing of accents. Scouse is characterized phonetically by TH-stopping, H-dropping, and differences in vowel pronunciation compared to Received Pronunciation (RP). For example, words containing "air/are/ear" are pronounced with the vowel sound in "nurse" rather than "square." Scouse also exhibits lenition processes that modify consonant sounds like "t" and "k." The accent continues to evolve across generations.

Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Pollock and Snow "DEIA in the Scholarly Landscape, Session One: Setting Expec...National Information Standards Organization (NISO)
This presentation was provided by Steph Pollock of The American Psychological Association’s Journals Program, and Damita Snow, of The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), for the initial session of NISO's 2024 Training Series "DEIA in the Scholarly Landscape." Session One: 'Setting Expectations: a DEIA Primer,' was held June 6, 2024.A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
