New York Accent a History
The New York accent originated from the Dutch settlement of New York in the 1600s and has evolved as the city has seen waves of immigration. It is characterized by dropping "r" sounds and drawing out vowel sounds. Studies have shown the New York accent is associated with lower social status, and some speakers feel pressure to modify their accent in professional settings due to stigma. However, the accent remains prominent in Brooklyn and is passed down through new generations.

Introduction to Linguistics
This document provides an introduction to the study of language. It begins by outlining the objectives of the course, which are to define and compare grammar components, discuss views on language origins and teaching methods, and examine the relationship between language and society. It then gives an overview of topics to be covered, including definitions of language from linguists, the macro skills of language, and theories of language study. The document proceeds to define linguistics as the scientific study of language, then discusses definitions of language from different scholars which emphasize communication through arbitrary symbols. It outlines the main macro skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing as well as their receptive and productive aspects. In closing, it notes the structural view of language and thanks the
Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland is situated on the northeast of Ireland and is one of the four countries that make up the United Kingdom. It shares a border with the Republic of Ireland to the south and west. The population of Northern Ireland was 1.685 million at the 2001 census and is predominantly white and Christian. The history of Northern Ireland has been complex, with conflict and violence between 1969-2004 resulting in over 3,000 deaths. While religion separated the two communities, the underlying cause of the conflict was power and control over the region.
Generalized conversational
This document discusses scalar implicatures and conversational implicatures. Scalar implicatures are meanings implied by the use of expressions on a scale, such as "some" implying "not all". Conversational implicatures depend on the specific context of an utterance. They allow speakers to imply additional meanings without stating them directly. Conversational implicatures can be calculated from utterances, suspended, cancelled, or reinforced depending on how the conversation progresses.
England Etiquettes
England's capital is London, with a population of over 53 million people who primarily speak English. Some cultural etiquette tips for England include standing in lines, saying "please" and "thank you", and driving on the left side of the road. Politically, England has a parliamentary democracy and constitutional monarchy led by Prime Minister David Cameron. Punctuality is highly valued in British culture.
Multiracial britain
This document discusses the ethnic diversity and multiculturalism in Britain. It notes that Britain has become a multiracial society through immigration over centuries from former colonies and other countries due to war, famine, and other factors. The largest ethnic minority groups are Indians, Pakistanis, and Black Britons from Caribbean countries. While some groups have integrated more than others, intermarriage rates are rising and mixed-race identities are growing. Politicians debate whether multiculturalism has succeeded or failed at promoting integration.
Pragmatics
The document discusses two models of communication:
1) The message model, where the speaker encodes a message and the hearer decodes it. This model has problems with ambiguity, reference, intention, nonliteral meanings, and indirectness.
2) The inferential model, where communication relies on shared presumptions and inferential strategies. This model accounts for literal, nonliteral, and indirect language use through recognition of contextual appropriateness and inferences about the speaker's intention. Successful communication is recognizing the speaker's communicative intention.
Stereotypes
This document defines and discusses stereotypes. It notes that stereotypes are oversimplified generalizations about groups of people. They often evolve from a lack of exposure or understanding of other groups. Stereotypes can be implicit or explicit. While stereotypes can help process information efficiently, they can also be unfair and persist despite changes to the groups. The document examines types of stereotypes like ethnic, gender, and positive/negative stereotypes. It explores the differences between stereotypes, attitudes, and prejudices.
Stereotyping and cultural differences
This document discusses stereotyping and understanding cultural differences. It defines stereotyping as oversimplified ideas or images about groups that are widely accepted. Stereotypes can occur across ethnic, social, religious, and gender groups. They often arise from a lack of exposure to other cultures. The document provides examples of common gender and cultural stereotypes. It emphasizes that understanding cultural differences, like names, time concepts, food customs, and hand gestures, can help overcome stereotyping and create successful relationships between cultural groups.
Discourse and racism (2)
This document discusses discourse analysis and different theories related to it, including social cognitive theory, social identity theory, and critical theory. It also mentions different approaches like the colonial paradigm and postmodern cultural studies perspective. Additionally, it discusses the work of Uta Quasthoff, one of the first discourse analysts who attempted to study and categorize prejudiced discourse, distinguishing between attitudes, convictions, and prejudices. It defines stereotypes as the verbal expression of beliefs directed at social groups or individuals.
Wales
Wales is represented by a shield with four lions surrounded by two flowers on each side and topped with a crown. Its flag is white and green with a dragon emblem. The population of Wales is around 321,000 people, most of whom (317,000) live in the capital city of Cardiff. The official languages are English and Welsh, and the currency is the British pound sterling. Popular tourist destinations include Cardiff Castle, the National Museum of Cardiff, Millennium Stadium, and cruises around Wales. National parks to visit are Snowdonia, Dartmoor, and Brecon Beacons.
Multilingualism Rights And Policy
This document discusses language policy and multilingualism. It provides examples of official language policies in different countries and regions that aim to establish the status and use of particular languages in government, education and public services. It also discusses unofficial language policies and how language ideologies and practices shape overt policies. Experts define language policy differently, with some seeing it as both official plans and unofficial practices, while others see it as existing between official ideology and everyday practices.
Text analysis
This document discusses text linguistics and textual analysis. Text linguistics examines texts as communication systems and covers fields like pragmatics and discourse analysis. There are different types of texts like descriptive, narrative, and expository. Textual analysis involves parsing texts to extract facts, while text analytics mines texts for insights by representing textual content as structured data. Textual analysis prepares unstructured documents for analysis, while text analytics makes sense of that analyzed data. Principles for analyzing texts include reading critically, identifying important ideas, and writing a summary.
British culture
The culture of the United Kingdom is shaped by its history as an island country and major power with a predominantly Christian religious life. British culture has been influenced by wider European culture and ideas like humanism, Protestantism, and representative democracy. British literature, music, art, theater, media, and other cultural aspects are respected globally. Sports also play an important role in British culture, with football being the most popular sport. British people live in England, Scotland, Wales, or Northern Ireland and are known for their reserved manners and strong sense of humor.
language and identity.ppt
Linguistic identity refers to how one communicates identity through language use. It is shaped by factors like one's region of origin, social class, education, and membership in social groups. Names and systems of address also influence identity by indicating status and group membership. People negotiate their identity through style shifting and audience design in conversations by converging or diverging their language patterns based on social contexts. Language is an important part of both individual and group identity, and its maintenance or loss can impact cultural identity. Issues of language rights and recognition are often politically significant for minority groups.
Semantics: Predicate, Predicators and Degree of Predicate
This document discusses key concepts in semantics including predicators, predicates, and degree of predicates.
[1] A predicator is the single word or part of a word in the remainder of a sentence that carries the most specific meaning. Examples of predicators include "beautiful", "curly", and "meet". [2] A predicate is any word that can function as a predicator. Predicates can have different degrees depending on the number of arguments they take, such as one place, two place, or three place predicates. [3] The degree of a predicate indicates the number of arguments it is normally understood to have in a simple sentence.

Pidgin & creoles
This document outlines the key differences between pidgins and creoles. It begins with definitions, noting that pidgins are simplified languages used for communication between groups that don't share a common language, while creoles have developed from pidgins into stable first languages. It then covers the origins and theories of development of pidgins and creoles, followed by their distinguishing characteristics and stages of development. Pidgins are described as unstable, socially limited languages, whereas creoles have expanded vocabularies and more complex grammars as stable first languages.
English History
The document provides a historical overview of the United Kingdom from prehistory to the 20th century. It covers major periods including the Roman period when Latin was introduced, the Germanic invasions which brought Germanic languages and new farming methods, the medieval period defined by Norman rule and the establishment of English as the dominant language, the 16th century Protestant reformation, the 17th century English Civil War and consolidation of parliamentary power, the 1707 Acts of Union forming the Kingdom of Great Britain, the 18th century British Empire and Industrial Revolution, the 19th century loss of American colonies and political/social reforms, and concludes with an overview reaching the 20th century.
Standard english debate
The document discusses Standard English, defining it as the variety of English normally used in writing and associated with education. It is not a language, accent, style, or register in itself. Standard English is a social dialect distinguished from other dialects by its grammatical forms. The document also discusses linguistic differences between standard and non-standard dialects, as well as how Standard English is taught in the UK National Curriculum.

Reference and Denotation
Connotation
Sense Relations
Lexical and Grammatical Meanings
Reference
Reference is the relation between a language expression such as this door, both doors, the dog, another dog and whatever the expression pertains to in a particular situation of language use, including what a speaker many imagine.
Reference is the way speakers and hearers use an expression successfully.

My son is in the beech tree.
Referent:person Referent:things
Note :
Referent of a part of language : things or people exist in the world even something or someone that not exist but we believe they are available.
Kind of Reference
The English Expression (Part of Language)
Thing/Person (Part of world)
Triangle of meaning by Ogden and Richards
Denotation
Denotation is the straight forward or common – sense meaning of a sign. Literally what is actually shown in an image .
Example :
A red rose is a flower – that is its straight forward meaning or denotation.
An apple is a fruit we eat.
Connotation
Connotation is the emotional and imaginative association surrounding a word.
Kinds of connotation :
Flavor or positive connotation : words that make people feel good.
Unfavorable or negative connotation : words that provoke a negative emotional response.
Neutral connotation : not good or bad ; indifferent ; used when the author doesn’t want to show strong emotions either way.
Sense Relations
Sense Relation is a paradigmatic relation between words or predicates
Kinds of Sense Relations
SYNONYM
Synonym is a word that means exactly the same as or very nearly the same as, another world in the same language
ANTONYM
Antonym is a word which has opposite meaning.
POLYSEMY
Polysemi is a word that has many meaning, but it includes a central groove
HYPONYM
Hyponym is a word whose meaning is summarized in a broader sense
LEXICAL & GRAMMATICAL MEANING
Lexical (derivational morphology) studies word formation which produces new words. It changes part of speech and meaning.
Grammatical (inflection morphology) studies word formation related to grammar. It does not change part of speech and meaning, but give signal grammatical information
