Book excerpt: "This volume compares the evolution and current status of two of the world's major languages, English and Spanish. Parallel chapters trace the emergence of Global English and Spanish and their current status, covering aspects such as language and dialect contact, language typology, norm development in pluricentric languages, and identity construction. Case studies look into the use of English and Spanish on the internet, investigate mixed and alternating lects, as well as ongoing change in Spanish-speaking minorities in the US. The volume thus contributes to current theoretical debates and provides fresh empirical data. While offering an in-depth treatment of the evolution of English and Spanish to the reader, this book introduces the driving factors and the effects of the emergence of world languages in general and is relevant for researchers and students of sociolinguistics, historical linguistics, and typology alike"--

  • Author : Ilan Stavans
  • Publisher : Harper Collins
  • Release : 2004-08-03
  • ISBN : 0060087765
  • Pages : 290 pages

Download or read book Spanglish written by Ilan Stavans and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2004-08-03 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the release of the census figures in 2000, Latino America wasanointed the future driving force of American culture. The emergence of Spanglish as a form of communication is one of the more influential markers of an America gone Latino. Spanish, present on this continent since the fifteenth century, when Iberian explorers sought to colonize territories in what are now Florida, New Mexico, Texas, and California, has become ubiquitous in the last few decades. The nation's unofficial second language, it is highly visible on several 24-hour TV networks and on more than 200 radio stations across the country. But Spanish north of the Rio Grande has not spread in its pure Iberian form. On the contrary, a signature of the brewing "Latin Fever" that has swept the United States since the mid-1980s is the astonishing creative linguistic amalgam of tongues used by people of Hispanic descent, not only in major cities but in rural areas as well -- neither Spanish nor English, but a hybrid, known only as Spanglish.

Book Spanish English Codeswitching in the Caribbean and the US

Download or read book Spanish English Codeswitching in the Caribbean and the US written by Rosa E. Guzzardo Tamargo and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-09-07 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides a sample of the most recent studies on Spanish-English codeswitching both in the Caribbean and among bilinguals in the United States. In thirteen chapters, it brings together the work of leading scholars representing diverse disciplinary perspectives within linguistics, including psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, theoretical linguistics, and applied linguistics, as well as various methodological approaches, such as the collection of naturalistic oral and written data, the use of reading comprehension tasks, the elicitation of acceptability judgments, and computational methods. The volume surpasses the limits of different fields in order to enable a rich characterization of the cognitive, linguistic, and socio-pragmatic factors that affect codeswitching, therefore, leading interested students, professors, and researchers to a better understanding of the regularities governing Spanish-English codeswitches, the representation and processing of codeswitches in the bilingual brain, the interaction between bilinguals’ languages and their mutual influence during linguistic expression.

Book Bilingual Youth

Download or read book Bilingual Youth written by Kim Potowski and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2011-03-16 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present volume represents a variety of portraits of what happens when families attempt to raise children in Spanish while living in English-speaking societies. Aided by the foregrounding chapter by Suzanne Romaine about language and identity and the afterword by Carol Klee that ties together many issues brought up throughout the collection, the reader gains a more complete understanding of the variables that contribute to Spanish bilingualism in English-speaking societies, and by extension a more complete understanding of the dynamic nature of bilingualism in general. This volume, the first of its kind, brings together an impressive array of sociolinguistic environments while keeping the two languages constant. We hope that it marks the beginning of comparative analyses of bilingualism, acquisition outcomes, and identity construction across environments that share the same languages, but where important disparities exist in the sociolinguistic landscapes.

Book English to Spanish Translations for Contemporary Conversation

Download or read book English to Spanish Translations for Contemporary Conversation written by Scott Paulson and published by . This book was released on 2020-01-26 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So maybe you've seen a person around that you'd like to get to know. However, without knowing some basic Spanish as well as the English you know, you realize that getting to know the person isn't going to happen comfortably. Perhaps you would like to get to know a person at work better by being able to make comments and even have a simple conversation in Spanish, even though you haven't learned the second language or are still in the infancy stages of learning it. Maybe there is a group at your local fast food joint or bar that speaks in Spanish and you'd like to have more interactions with them. However, you need to learn some Spanish translations or, at least, refresh your language skills before comfortably communicating with others. Of course, attempting to make yourself known to a Spanish speaker who just happens to catch your eye might be the reason you want to learn the second language. Regardless of the reasons you want or need to communicate with someone beyond your first language, this book has the most-often used Spanish and English words and phrases for you to begin communicating and continue communicating with others in their language. Through your continued ongoing interactions with them, you can work your way toward fluency in the second language. In the first part of this book, universal greetings, introductions, and conversation starters are presented - first in English and then in Spanish. Then, many lists of the most common words one may need to know to communicate with others follows the same pattern of being presented in English first and then in Spanish. The word lists are presented in categories, such as people, occupations, clothes, and transportation. By categorizing the words, it assists learners in finding the words and phrases they are specifically wanting or needing to learn. Additionally, studying one category at a time is an effective method of learning new vocabulary. The words and phrases in this book are translated to the Spanish language most-often used in Mexico and other Latin American countries as opposed to the Spanish language that may be spoken in other parts of the globe. Near the end of the book, explanations as to how Spanish words are pronounced are available. The great thing about learning to speak Spanish is that it is a relatively simple language for English speakers to pronounce. This is because, in most cases, a Spanish word is pronounced the way it is written. Therefore, if you can read and speak English, you can likely pronounce Spanish words as they are written. Basically, every letter in a Spanish word gets one sound. However, there are a few exceptions to this rule. That is why information regarding the speaking of Spanish from the written word - phonics - is offered in this book. Phonics and accentuation involved in speaking Spanish is discussed. Besides speaking with many people who speak Spanish as their first or only language, this book has been prepared with the assistance of numerous translation websites and programs that are designed to teach the Spanish language. Many of the Spanish speakers have been students in the author's English classes through the years. Additionally, research regarding the many aspects of conversation, from the phrases people use when meeting one another to the most common words generally used in conversations, has been administered in the writing this book. Finally, be forewarned that two translated sections of the book have some offensive language. These sections are "Sexual Encounters" and "Informal Expressions and Words." The sections have been included to make the book marketable to those who are interested in learning street language, which often includes offensive words and phrases. If such language offends you, please read these two sections with caution.

Download or read book English and Spanish written by Scott Paulson and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-09-20 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great number of similarities and differences between the English and Spanish languages exist. Learning one of these two languages from the other one is not as difficult as a person finds in learning many other foreign languages. The reason is because there are many similarities between English and Spanish. Understanding the challenging or tricky differences between the languages is well worth one's time in learning as well. Concentrating on the many similarities and confusing differences between the languages assists a language learner greatly in learning either language. This book begins with the many similarities between English and Spanish, and then it details the differences between the two languages. The author of this book taught English as a Second Language (ESL) students for a decade at the end of a four-decade teaching career. Prior to ESL, he taught English with the concentration on reading, writing, and speaking. In teaching bilingual students, he found that comparing the two languages was very beneficial in helping language learners learn and understand English and its grammar faster and much more effectively than they had previously been learning by only concentrating on English as a new language to them. Equally, through his personal experience, he found that he could learn Spanish much easier and more quickly by making many comparisons of the two languages. Learning is more difficult when educators and programs insist on total immersion of a language while ignoring the incredible advantages in making comparisons. To become the best possible learned speaker, reader, and writer of either language, study beyond the philosophies of immersion. A great amount of benefit results when students concentrate on what is the same between their first language and the other language. It teaches the learner that he or she already knows much about the new language due to the many similarities. The learner already knows the elements of the new language that are integrated with his or her own language. In learning these integral or essential parts, the learner learns and understands more quickly and more efficiently. Being able to speak a new language makes one's life better in many ways as it greatly increases the number of people with whom a person can interact and communicate. Business people are finding the huge benefits of being able to speak English and Spanish in the United States and beyond. Enjoy learning. It does a person and his or her mind a great deal of good.
