Pablo Neruda's poem "Ode to Broken Things" discusses how various household objects like plates, lamps, and flower pots mysteriously broke over time. The speaker questions what caused these breakages, dismissing things like hands, wind, or the motion of the planet. The speaker reflects on how all material possessions, no matter how delicate or treasured, will eventually wear out or break down over time. The speaker proposes gathering all broken items and letting the sea reconstruct them, as the sea represents the impermanence of all things.

Translation is the communication of meaning from one language to another. It involves replacing a written text in one language with an equivalent written text in another language. The main purpose of translation is to convey the message, intent, and cultural context of the original text to the readers of the translated text.
Introduction cda pid2012
The document provides an introduction to critical discourse analysis (CDA). It discusses key concepts such as how language shapes and reflects social practices and power relations. CDA examines how discourse reproduces and challenges ideologies through a close analysis of text and consideration of wider social contexts. The document outlines some of the main approaches and theorists in CDA and contrasts it with traditional linguistics by noting CDA's focus on language in use and its aim to understand how discourse enacts social goals.
Critical discourse analysis and an application
This document provides an overview of critical discourse analysis (CDA) and its approaches. It discusses the key concepts and theorists in the development of CDA, including Norman Fairclough and Teun Van Dijk. The document is divided into two sections. The first section defines CDA and outlines its five common features and differences between approaches. It then describes Fairclough's approach focusing on discourse as social practice and ideology/power, as well as Van Dijk's socio-cognitive model. The second section will apply one of the CDA approaches to analyze Charlotte Bronte's novel Jane Eyre.

Discourse analysis
Discourse analysis is the study of language use in context. It examines both spoken and written language. American discourse analysis has focused on close observation of natural conversations, emphasizing turn-taking and interaction norms. British discourse analysis is influenced by M.A.K. Halliday's functional approach and examines the social functions of language and informational structure. Discourse analysis considers both the micro-level structure of individual interactions as well as larger patterns found across texts. It analyzes both what language is doing and how listeners/readers are meant to interpret it according to conventions of different types of discourse.

Discourse Studies
This document discusses key concepts in discourse analysis including:
1) The difference between discourse and text, with discourse referring to language use in context and text being any written or spoken communication.
2) How coherence is created in texts through cohesive devices like reference, substitution, ellipsis, conjunction, and lexical cohesion.
3) The relationship between words and meanings in semantics and how pragmatics studies language use in social contexts.

Introduction to english phonetics
This document provides an introduction to English phonetics. It begins by defining phonetics and its branches. It then discusses the speech organs and describes the 12 vowel sounds of English, including their place and manner of articulation. It also explains diphthongs and the 8 diphthong sounds of English. Next, it discusses consonant sounds, dividing them into categories like plosives, fricatives, nasals, affricates, laterals and approximants. Specific consonant sounds are then defined with examples. The document concludes by listing references used to compile the information presented.
Types of Translation, By Dr. Shadia Yousef Banjar
The document discusses 8 types of translation: word-for-word, literal, faithful, semantic, communicative, idiomatic, adaptive, and free. For each type, it provides a brief definition of the approach. For example, word-for-word translation preserves the source language word order and translates words based on their most common meanings. Faithful translation attempts to reproduce the precise contextual meaning within target language constraints. Communicative translation renders the exact meaning in a way that is readily acceptable and comprehensible.
formal-and-contextual-links.pdf
This document discusses formal and contextual links in language. It describes several cohesive devices that create formal links between sentences:
1. Verb form
2. Parallelism
3. Referring expressions
4. Repetition and lexical chains
5. Substitution
6. Ellipsis
7. Conjunction
It provides examples of each device and explains how they suggest connections between sentences. However, the document also notes that formal links alone are not enough to create coherence - contextual understanding is also required. Language must be understood in terms of its intended functions and the cultural norms of communication.
Introducing Critical Discourse Analysis
This document provides an introduction to critical discourse analysis (CDA). It defines CDA as going beyond describing discourse to explain how and why particular discourses are produced. The document outlines some of the key principles of CDA, including that discourse constructs and reflects social issues and power relations. It then gives a brief historical background on the development of CDA out of critical linguistics in the 1970s. The document also discusses some of the main approaches to CDA developed by scholars like Fairclough, Van Dijk, and Wodak. It provides examples of "toolkits" used for CDA analysis and discusses some common criticisms of CDA, such as claims that analyses can be too complex or focus on obvious prejudices

Esp and listening skills in applied linguistics
ESP refers to teaching English for specific purposes where the goal is to use English in a particular domain like academia or a profession. ESP listening aims to develop active listeners who can construct interpretations based on input and ask for needed information, drawing on bottom-up and top-down cognitive processes as well as knowledge of language, context, and discourse. Research on ESP listening has focused on areas like lecture comprehension and used methods such as surveys and discourse analysis. Developing strong academic listening skills requires using information-driven and point-driven strategies to identify key facts and distinguish major ideas. Future research on ESP listening could further explore how technologies can enhance listening instruction and the role of metacognition.
Week 8 Syllables.pptx
This document defines syllables and discusses their structure. It notes that a syllable contains a nucleus which is usually a vowel or diphthong. Syllables can also have an onset of initial consonants and a coda of final consonants. It provides examples of different syllable types such as open, closed, and consonant-cluster syllables. Students are asked to practice drawing syllable tree diagrams to represent the onset, nucleus, and coda of both monosyllabic and multisyllabic words. Homework involves drawing diagrams for additional words.
Approaches to teaching ESP and EAP in open and distance learning
The field of ESP (including EAP) has grown tremendously over the last four decades. It seems to have flourished not only in English-speaking countries but also in countries where English is used as a foreign language. However, its growth in the open and distance learning sector seems to be limited and the ESP literature appears to report very little with regard to this sector. In this talk, I will be presenting the approach(es) followed by OpenELT in The Open University UK while designing two modules for open and distance learning: one ESP and another EAP. I will also share the implication of producing these two modules for other ESP/ EAP practitioners.
Esp and Writing
This document discusses research on writing in English for Specific Purposes (ESP). It covers three main approaches to ESP writing research: textual studies which examine how texts serve communicative purposes, contextual studies which consider the social contexts around text production, and critical studies which analyze how language constructs knowledge and power relations. Key findings include that written genres have culturally specific rhetorical structures and that there is often a disconnect between authentic professional writing and textbook representations. The future of ESP writing research may include new genres, deeper understanding of literacy contexts, and incorporating multimodality.
MOTHER TONGUE INFLUENCE ON ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNING
Language is a method of communicating ideas, emotions and desires by means of a system of arbitrarily produced symbols for physiological as well as psychological survival. In a multilingual Indian Society, where English acts as a second language, our aim of teaching English is not to develop British or American accent but to help the learners to overcome regional accents, wrong pronunciation and gradually train them in proper articulation. The aim of this article is to discuss the mother tongue influence in the process of English Language learning and how a teacher can help to overcome some of the problem encountered by an Indian learner of English as well as to improve his/her communicative competence.
Discourse analysis for language teachers
Discourse analysis refers to the study of relationships between language and context. It examines both written and spoken language in use. Discourse analysis has developed since the 1960s from various fields including linguistics, sociology, and philosophy. Key developments included studying language as social action, conversational structure, and the form and function of language. Discourse analysis interprets language based on both its grammatical form and communicative function within different social contexts and interactions.

This document provides background information and outlines the methodology for a study analyzing the rhetorical moves of introduction and discussion sections in international and Indonesian research journal articles. Specifically:
- Indonesia publishes fewer research articles internationally compared to countries like Singapore and Malaysia, indicating opportunities to increase publication rates.
- The study will examine rhetorical moves in introductions and discussions from international and Indonesian journals to understand similarities and differences between native and non-native English writers.
- A content analysis methodology will be used to systematically analyze and quantify variables in the collected journal articles.
Discourse analysis
The document discusses discourse analysis and key concepts in analyzing language use and interpretation. It covers the Hallidayan model of language which analyzes context of culture, context of situation (including field, tenor, mode), genre, and register. It also discusses Grice's cooperative principle and maxims of conversation, implicatures, and approaches to discourse analysis including initial analysis, conversation analysis, and critical discourse analysis.
Structuralism in Language Learning
Structuralism is an intellectual movement that analyzes fields as systems of interrelated parts that derive meaning from their relationships. It views language and the mind as structures formed by associations. Structuralism developed in early 1900s Europe through the structural linguistics of Saussure and later schools. It emphasizes that meaning is determined by context and relationships within a system. Structuralism had influence on linguistics, sociology, anthropology and other fields.
There Will Come Soft Rains by Ray Bradbury
The story describes a day in the life of an automated smart home in the year 2026. The home carries out all its normal functions like cooking breakfast, cleaning, and caring for children on its own through robots and voice controls. As the day progresses, a tree branch crashes through a window during a storm, starting a fire that the home's fire suppression system cannot contain. The home's defenses are overwhelmed and it is destroyed as the fire spreads and damages its systems. The last remaining voice repeats the date as the sun rises on the smoldering rubble that was once the home.

Mika 1st chapter
First chapter of the epic fantasy novel "Mika Holdbrand: Diplomacy in Tradewind", the first in "Chronicles of the Apotheosis" series. Sinopsis:
The world of Timelah has enjoyed peace for centuries. A tense peace, in which their nations have looked at each other with distrust, but peace, after all. The two most powerful nations, the republic of Priseida and the country of Threecloud, the magicians' homeland, are now on the verge of a conflict fuelled by the expansionist wishes of the Knight Protector, ruler of Priseida.

Thesis

The document continues with more poems exploring natural environments, childhood memories, and abstract ideas like perfection.

The little ice age
The Little Ice Age occurred between the 16th and 19th centuries, causing global cooling and harsh winters in Europe and North America. Evidence from tree rings, historical accounts, and ice cores indicate temperatures dropped following major volcanic eruptions in the tropics in 536 and 540 AD. These eruptions likely included Krakatoa and released sulfuric acid aerosols that blocked sunlight for years and had widespread effects on agriculture. During this cold period, vineyards shriveled and northerners developed fermentation of grains like barley and rye, inventions that led to the development of scotch whiskey and other spirits.
Study In Writing Styles
Designed to be used in a college class on writing to show the differences in writing styles of many famous authors. This presentation can be used as an interactive assignment.
10 time poems
This poem by Lord Byron reflects on the passage of time and how it continues to move forward regardless of one's circumstances. He acknowledges time's role in bringing both joy and sorrow, as it allows memories of past loved ones but also brings the speaker closer to his own death. While time can deform the present, the speaker takes comfort knowing its effects will ultimately be fleeting and meaningless once he is gone and reduced to "a nameless stone."
Story of my life by Helen Keller
This is a PPT on the 12th chapter of the autobiography written by Helen Keller on her struggles of life without eyes and ears, i.e being deaf dumb and blind but how she learns to speak with the help of her teacher and what an important role her teacher played in her life.
The Elements
The document discusses water and its importance to all life on Earth. Water is essential for drinking, cleaning, cooking, living and dying. It plays a key role in many religions and cultures. Water is vital to producing food and sustaining life, yet it is often taken for granted or disrespected. The document emphasizes how water gives life but its neglect can also bring death.
A memory of last island
This document provides a detailed description of the geography and history of Last Island and the surrounding Gulf islands off the coast of Louisiana. It describes the landscape features of the islands, including forests, villages, and the ongoing erosion from the sea that is causing the islands to shrink over time. It then tells the story of how Last Island, once a popular resort island, was destroyed in a single night by a powerful storm that split the island in two and washed away all signs of the village that had been there.

Ode to broken things
- 2. About the Poet Neftalí Ricardo Reyes Basoalto Supported communism 1952 exiled 1959 “Ode to Broken Things” Closure over exile
- 3. First Stanza Things get broken at home like they were pushed by an invisible, deliberate smasher. It's not my hands or yours It wasn't the girls with their hard fingernails or the motion of the planet. It wasn't anything or anybody It wasn't the wind It wasn't the orange-colored noontime Or night over the earth It wasn't even the nose or the elbow Or the hips getting bigger or the ankle or the air.
- 4. First Stanza Continued The plate broke, the lamp fell All the flower pots tumbled over one by one. That pot which overflowed with scarlet in the middle of October, it got tired from all the violets and another empty one rolled round and round and round all through winter until it was only the powder of a flowerpot, a broken memory, shining dust.
- 5. Second Stanza And that clock whose sound was the voice of our lives, the secret thread of our weeks, which released one by one, so many hours for honey and silence for so many births and jobs, that clock also fell and its delicate blue guts vibrated among the broken glass its wide heart unsprung.
- 6. Third Stanza Life goes on grinding up glass, wearing out clothes making fragments breaking down forms and what lasts through time is like an island on a ship in the sea, perishable surrounded by dangerous fragility by merciless waters and threats.
- 7. Fourth Stanza Let's put all our treasures together -- the clocks, plates, cups cracked by the cold -- into a sack and carry them to the sea and let our possessions sink into one alarming breaker that sounds like a river. May whatever breaks be reconstructed by the sea with the long labor of its tides. So many useless things which nobody broke but which got broken anyway.
- 8. Ode to Broken Things S: Observer of broken things O: at home A: humans, including the speaker P: perishable – The speaker explains how all material objects are perishable M: The speaker believes that since all tangible objects will inevitably break, they should not be infatuated with.
