This document discusses styles and registers in language. It defines styles as varieties of language used for specific purposes, often analyzed on a scale of formality. Five levels of formality are described, ranging from oratorical style for public speaking to intimate style between close friends and family with no social inhibitions. Registers are varieties associated with occupational or socioeconomic groups, like legalese or the language of sports commentators. Verbal and nonverbal communication are also discussed, with nonverbal communication including body language, facial expressions, eye contact, space/proximity, artifacts, touch, and olfactory dimensions like smell.

The work of speech organs necessary for making speech sounds is called articulation. According to
The specific character of articulation, especially according to the presence or absence of the obstruction speech sounds are divided into vowels and consonants. The most substantial difference between vowels and consonants is that in the articulation of vowels the air passes freely through the mouth cavity, while in making consonants an obstruction is formed in the mouth cavity or in the pharynx and the flow of the air meets a narrowing or complete obstruction. Vowels have no fixed place of articulation, the whole of the speaking apparatus takes part in their formation, while the articulation of consonants can be localized, and an obstruction or a narrowing for each consonant is formed at a definite place of the speaking apparatus. In producing vowels all the organs of speech are tense, while in making consonants, the organs of speech are tense only in the place of obstruction. Voice prevails in vowels while in most consonants noise prevails over voice. Vowels are syllable forming sounds while consonants are not, as a rule.
FM 2019 Sociolinguistics A Language Study in Sociocultural Perspectives-7-20.pdfFatchulMuin
A language is not only studied from the internal
viewpoint but also from the external one. Internally, it is studied
based on its internal structures; whereas, externally, it is based
on the linguistic factors in relation to the factors beyond the
language.
A study of internal language structures (or, it is based on
the sub-systems of a language) will result sub-discipline of
linguistics such as phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax
and semantics. It is conducted through theories and procedures
belonging to the discipline of linguistics; it is not related to the
problems beyond the language.

He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

absence of social inhibitions.
Ex.: Talk with family, love ones, and very close friends,
where the inner self is revealed, is usually in an intimate
style.
4. Register
Registers are commonly identified by certain
phonological variants, vocabulary, idioms and
other expressions that are associated with

groups.
Ex: Journalese, baby-talk, legalese, the language of
auctioneers, race-callers, and sports commentators, the
language of airline pilots, criminals, financiers,
politicians and disc jockeys, the language of the
courtroom and the classroom.
5. The different categories of
communication
1. Verbal Communication : face to face, telephone,
radio or television and other media.
2. Nonverbal Communication : body language,
gestures, how we dress or act – even our scent.

Editor's Notes
What are you doing right now? What does your posture suggest? Are you fidgeting?
Hunched over or upright, arms crossed or open
Raising your hand in class, waving, shrugging, etc.
Twirling your hair, rubbing your shoulder
An aside…
Research on assault
Many criminals are good at reading nonverbals
Chose victims whose body movement suggested passivity
Suggestion: walk confidently, hold your head upright, meet others’ eyes w/o staring, don’t appear unsure or lost, especially if you are.
Eyes can really communicate interest
One study w/ infants found that infants became terrified if they couldn’t see their moms’ eyes, but weren’t bothered if other parts of her face were covered up
UF study from about a year ago (also language functions in left hemisphere vs. all over)
Our faces tell * a lot* Gottman research:
Found a specific facial expression for contempt (lip corners to the side, eyes rolled upward glance)
A certain # of these expressions by husbands on a videotape predicted their wives’ infectious illnesses over the next 4 years
What’s might be going on in these 2 pictures? Can you tell what emotions the woman is experiencing? What tells you that?
Personal space bubble
Intimate (body to 18”) In our personal space, only those who are really close to us – trust
Personal (18”-4’) implies intimacy
Social (4’-12’) acquaintances, business
Public (12’ and beyond) public speaking
Barrier behaviors = backing up, putting something between us, breaking eye contact
Territory = geographical space belonging to us (your room, your bed, your apartment, etc.)
We give more personal space and more territory to people with higher status/more power
Women’s clothes tend to send the message of being decorative, while men’s clothes tend to be more functional
