Communication Accommodation Theory
Communication Accommodation Theory examines how language converges or diverges during human interaction based on speech patterns, gestures, and vocal tones. It focuses on convergence, where one changes their communication style to match the other person, and divergence, where differences are emphasized. The theory aims to better understand how people communicate and react differently with family, friends, coworkers, and others by observing changes in their communication behaviors. However, some critics argue CAT may oversimplify conversations and its concepts are difficult to test empirically.
Constatives & performatives
This document discusses the distinction between constative and performative utterances as described by J.L. Austin. Constatives are statements that can be true or false, such as "the window is open." Performatives are utterances that perform an action, like orders, promises, and bets. Implicit performatives do not specify the speech act, while explicit performatives use performative verbs like "I promise." Performatives can be happy if well-chosen or unhappy if inappropriate. The key difference is that constatives report or describe while performatives perform an action in saying something.
Social and spatial segregation
This document discusses social and spatial segregation. It defines geographical segregation as when population proportions are not evenly distributed throughout a space. Segregation can occur along dimensions like gender, religion, ethnicity, etc. Social segregation is often measured using indices to quantify differences in exposure between groups. Segregation can be caused by both direct government policies as well as indirect social and economic factors that create segregated neighborhoods over time. The analysis of segregation looks at how differentiated populations are distributed across social locations and the processes that create and maintain this distribution.
Computer mediated communication
The social and cultural transformation and even social interaction that has been influenced by computer and internet is evident in the recent decade. The role played by the new media has increased and is always on the rise, transforming every single life that it touches effecting the individual, but sometimes it has positive and negative effects.
Computer Mediated Communication can simply be put as a transaction between two or more network computer like chartroom, emails, SNS (Social Networking Sites), text messages etc. This growing topic has been talked and argued by theorists and scholars Joseph Walther, Ramirez and Zhang, Denis McQuail, etc., and has been debated and many other scholars continue to debate and argue on CMC, its scope and reach on vast field in New Media. The following summary throws light on CMC

1. Computer-mediated communication theories have not evolved as quickly as the technologies they aim to explain.
2. Older theories focused on asynchronous and reduced-cue environments, but modern communication occurs across synchronous, visual, and networked platforms.
3. Understanding one's audience, both known and unknown, and how people selectively present themselves online, are now critical to developing updated theories of computer-mediated communication.

Stylistic analysis
This document provides an analysis of the poem "I Died for Beauty" by Emily Dickinson at various linguistic levels. It defines stylistic analysis and outlines several levels of analysis including the phonological, grammatical, semantic, pragmatic, graphological, discourse, and lexical levels. For each level, it provides examples of linguistic features and concepts that could be analyzed such as stress, rhythm, denotation, implicature, punctuation, genres, and word types.
Functions of Speech Communication
This document discusses the different functions of speech communication from three perspectives: the sender's, society's, and receiver's. For the sender, the main functions are to share information, provide instruction, persuade, and entertain. From society's perspective, the key functions are surveillance, correlation, socialization, and entertainment. For the receiver, the major functions are to develop personal identity, facilitate social integration, enhance cognitive abilities, and provide a means of escape. Overall, the document analyzes how speech communication fulfills various important roles for individuals and communities.
Communicative competence
Communicative competence refers to an individual's pragmatic ability to use language effectively and appropriately based on context. It involves multiple dimensions including grammatical competence, sociolinguistic competence, discourse competence, and strategic competence. Theorists like Hymes, Savignon, and Cummins contributed to the understanding of communicative competence, distinguishing between basic interpersonal skills and cognitive academic language proficiency. Pragmatics is the study of how context contributes to meaning. It involves sociopragmatics, pragmalinguistics, and examines language use across situations, cultures, and through nonverbal channels.
Communicative competence
Communicative competence refers to an individual's ability to communicate effectively and appropriately based on the social context. It involves four elements: grammatical competence, sociolinguistic competence, discourse competence, and strategic competence. Grammatical competence is knowledge of grammar rules, sociolinguistic competence is understanding appropriate language use based on social context, discourse competence is coherent language use across sentences, and strategic competence is adapting language when needed due to communication issues.
Point of View
1. The document analyzes the point of view in Edgar Allen Poe's short story "The Tell-Tale Heart" through Fowler Uspensky's four planes of point of view model.
2. It finds that the story is written from a first person perspective and uses the temporal, spatial, and psychological planes to convey the narrator's feelings, perceptions of events and surroundings, and mental state.
3. The analysis concludes that Poe skillfully employs all four of Fowler's point of view planes - ideological, temporal, spatial, and psychological - to narrate the story from the perspective of the character and reveal their mental condition.
Speech_communities_,social_&rejional_variation
This document discusses speech communities and language variation. It defines a speech community as a group that shares language practices and norms. Speech communities can be defined geographically, socioeconomically, ethnically/culturally, by age, or gender. The document also discusses that all languages exhibit variation in aspects like pronunciation, grammar and vocabulary. This variation can be regional, based on social factors like class, education, or the formality of the situation. Studies of language variation provide insights into how languages change over time.

It asks the reader to identify and explain the site and situation factors responsible for the location and growth of Bratislava, Slovakia. Specifically, it asks the reader to identify site factors that influenced Bratislava's original growth and situation factors that have contributed to its continued development into a major city.
The Language of TV Commercials’ Slogans: A Semantic Analysis
This qualitative-descriptive study highlights the semantic property of the slogans of TV commercials. The study
focuses on the analysis of linguistic tools used by the copywriters of TV commercials to influence the target audience. Leech’s (1981) associative meaning with its sub-types provide a theoretical basis to the study. The research displays multiple strategies used by the copywriters. It underscores the associations attached to the keywords of the selected slogans according to the mentioned theory of meaning. The research helps the TV viewers to understand the guile used by the copywriters to entrap them as well as the researchers of the field of semantics.
Speech acts
This document discusses speech acts, which refer to communicative utterances within a context. There are three aspects of a speech act: the locution is the physical utterance, the illocution is the intended meaning, and the perlocution is the resulting action. Speech acts can be categorized into constatives like affirming, directives like ordering, and commissives like promising. The theory of speech acts analyzes the locutionary act of saying something, the illocutionary act of performing an intended function in saying it, and the potential perlocutionary effect on the listener.
Discourse competence
The document discusses discourse competence, which is defined as the ability to understand, create, and develop forms of language longer than sentences with appropriate cohesion, coherence, and organization. It examines how discourse competence emerged as a goal in language teaching and models proposed by scholars. Key aspects of discourse competence include cohesion, coherence, rhetorical effectiveness, and thematic organization. The document also provides examples of exercises to develop discourse competence and innovations such as content-based language teaching and contrastive rhetoric.
SLA–3 Info Processing
The document discusses Bley-Froman's Fundamental Difference Hypothesis regarding differences between child and adult second language acquisition. Specifically, it states that Bley-Froman believes adults' SLA is guided by general cognitive learning capacities rather than the domain-specific module that guarantees children's success in first language acquisition. Adults may reach a plateau in SLA that children do not, and adults never attain the same level of grammatical intuition as native speakers.

This study has surveyed current trends and issues in English language
education in Asia, that is, 16 nations including Hong Kong and Taiwan
(total 18 regions). The results of the survey reveal commonalities and
diversity across Asian regions in the following aspects: the starting
grade, class hours, national curriculum, textbooks, the medium of
instruction, the use of computer, university entrance examination,
teachers, tertiary English education, and problems and concerns. English
language education in each Asian nation/region seems an outcome of
diverse factors including political environment, social and individual
needs, and resources (e.g., teachers and computer). The findings from
the survey raise five key issues to be resolved: the amount of time
allotted for English language education; the use of English as the
medium of instruction; centralization or decentralization; teachers; and
the nation-wide university entrance examination.
Urbanization Centripetal and Centrifugal Movements
Urbanization is the process by which an increasing percentage of a country's population lives in urban areas. It occurs through rural-urban migration, driven by push factors in rural areas like lack of opportunity and pull factors in cities like jobs and amenities. It also increases through natural population growth in cities. Centripetal movements involve migration into cities, while centrifugal movements are the outward expansion of urban areas through suburbanization and sprawl. While urbanization brings economic growth, it also creates issues like gentrification, loss of open space, and pollution that planners aim to address.
Styles and stylistic elements in advertising george rossolatos
The document provides an overview of styles and stylistic elements in advertising. It discusses what style is and why it matters in advertising. Some key points:
- Advertising style creates unique associations in consumer memory and differentiates brands. Different styles can minimize competitive threats and maintain brand saliency.
- Stylistic elements like tone of voice, music, visuals, fonts and narrative forms shape meaning and impact consumer responses. Elements like color, shapes and typefaces connote certain meanings.
- The document outlines several advertising styles (e.g. humorous, informational) and examines the pros and cons of each. It also discusses how style can indirectly impact purchase behavior by influencing attitude formation over the short
Intercultural Pragmatics
The document discusses cross-cultural pragmatics (CCP) research. It begins by outlining general areas of pragmatics like deixis and speech acts. It then discusses four approaches to studying CCP: cognitive, politeness theory, pragmatic approaches to cross-cultural communication, and conversation analysis. The document emphasizes that CCP aims to understand how lack of shared knowledge affects meaning. It notes mismatches in intention, interpretation, and understanding between cultures can lead to misperceptions. The document argues that analyzing linguistic, cognitive, sociological, and interactional causes is important for systematically tackling cross-cultural misunderstandings.
CONTEXT RETENTION
The document discusses various theories of translation equivalence from the 20th century:
- Vinay and Darbelnet defined equivalence as replicating the same situation with different wording, maintaining stylistic impact. Equivalence is ideal for idioms, clichés, etc.
- Jakobson introduced "equivalence in difference", noting translators use synonyms and there is no full equivalence between codes. Languages differ grammatically but translation is still possible.
- Nida distinguished formal correspondence and dynamic equivalence, which seeks equivalent effect on the target audience rather than form.
- Catford introduced translation shifts like level shifts and category shifts involving changes in structure, class, rank or system between languages.

What can a corpus tell us about registers and genres douglas biber
Text category is an important organizing principle in corpora. There are two main categories of text: register and genre. Register focuses on frequent linguistic features, while genre focuses on the rhetorical structure of complete texts. Most corpus studies take a register perspective because corpora are better designed for analyzing frequent features. Studies analyze linguistic variation between registers or features within a single register. Both spoken and written registers exist, and each display different linguistic characteristics.
Codeswitching by KRISHNAKSHI THAKURIA
This document discusses code switching, which is the practice of alternating between two or more languages in conversation. It requires competence in multiple languages. There are two main types: inter-sentential, which is switching between full sentences, and intra-sentential, which involves inserting words or phrases from another language within a sentence. Code switching occurs for reasons like inability to express something or to fit a linguistic environment. It is governed by constraints like occurring at points where the surface structures of the languages map onto each other and favoring switches of higher-level constituents. Borrowing, on the other hand, involves using a word from one language in another and shows more integration into the recipient language. Frequent code switching is associated with high
Discourse in Society.ppt
The document discusses the use of English in social contexts and the variation in English according to different situations. It begins by looking at registers, which are variations in language use defined by the context. Registers are shaped by the context and purpose of communication. The document then examines varieties of English, which depend on factors like region, social class, occupation, and the medium of communication. Varieties include differences between spoken and written English as well as differences in participation like monologues versus dialogues.

Eradication of Malaria from Sri Lanka
Sri Lanka has made extraordinary progress in eliminating malaria, reducing cases from over 500,000 in the early 20th century to just 17 reported cases in 2015. However, malaria elimination faces ongoing challenges, as imported malaria from travelers and migrants is increasing. Sustaining malaria elimination requires continued vigilance, such as ensuring all cases are properly treated according to guidelines, conducting case investigation and response, and preparedness for potential outbreaks. Cooperation with neighboring countries is also important to address the ongoing risk of imported malaria hampering elimination efforts.

Evaluating the impact of HIV/AIDS from the local to international levels
Within South Africa, HIV/AIDS prevalence is more than 18% in two of its districts and more than 14% nationally. It is a major cause of death in South Africa, where life expectancy has dropped from 64 years to 56 years from 1990 to 2017 due to HIV/AIDS. The epidemic heavily affects other countries in southern Africa as well. UNAIDS data shows that HIV prevalence in South Africa has stabilized in recent years after a major decline, but the disease continues to have significant economic and social impacts.

HIV/AIDS has had significant geographic impacts across local, national, and international scales in South Africa. At the local level, the disease has disproportionately affected the poor and black populations due to factors like poverty, lack of education, and sexual violence. Nationally, South Africa has seen its life expectancy drop dramatically and around 10% of its population is HIV positive, putting strain on healthcare resources. Internationally, HIV/AIDS has reduced life expectancy in many African countries and is now the fourth leading cause of death globally, with an estimated 36 million people infected worldwide mostly in developing areas.

The document examines the geographic factors responsible for the spread of HIV/AIDS in South Africa. It discusses trends in HIV prevalence over time as well as patterns across regions. Socio-cultural factors like apartheid, stigma, and gender inequality increased women's vulnerability and reduced access to services. Politically, former President Mbeki downplayed the epidemic. Economically, prevention was prioritized over treatment due to costs. Overall, the document analyzes how geography, socio-cultural issues, politics, and economics contributed to HIV/AIDS in South Africa with prevention emphasized more than treatment.
