Download or read book Linguistic Purism written by Olivia Walsh and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-08-25 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the first in-depth, comparative investigation of linguistic purism in modern French. It investigates the relative prevalence of purist ideology in France and Quebec. Both experience influence from English and have similar language legislation, but they differ in their social, political and economic history. Three different levels of society are examined (official, group and individual), allowing a comparison of the ‘voice from above’ and the ‘voice from below’. This is a key element in recent discussions of language planning but is rarely provided in studies of French. The study is also the first to apply to empirical data Thomas’s widely cited theoretical framework for describing linguistic purism (1991), and has evaluated and refined this, enhancing the theoretical underpinnings of the field. The book will be of interest not only to French scholars and sociolinguists, but also to scholars of language planning, language policy and language ideologies in all languages.
Download or read book La Vie en bleu written by Rod Kedward and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2006-06-29 with total page 634 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rod Kedward brings to life the great, and often terrible, dramas of modern France - the two cataclysmic wars, the Algerian disaster, the student and worker revolt of 1968 - but also explores the special worlds of the workplace, immigration, minorities, the role of women, and the politics of everyday life and collective memory. La Vie en Bleu is a history of people and events that tells a multitude of stories, some impressive, some shameful and many that starkly divide the French among themselves.
Download or read book Varieties of Spoken French written by Sylvain Detey and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 595 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the variation found in modern spoken French, based on the research programme 'Phonology of Contemporary French' (Phonologie du Francais Contemporain, PFC). Extensive data are drawn from all over the French-speaking world, including Algeria, Canada, Louisiana, Mauritius, and Switzerland. Although the principal focus is on differences in pronunciation, the authors also analyse the spoken language at all levels from sound to meaning. The book is accompanied by a website hosting audio-visual material for teaching purposes, data, and a variety of tools for working with corpora. The first part of the book outlines some key concepts and approaches to the description of spoken French. Chapters in Part II are devoted to the study of individual samples of spoken French from all over the world, covering phonological and grammatical features as well as lexical and cultural aspects. The book's companion website provides a class-friendly ready-to-use multimedia version of these 17 chapters, as well as the sound files and full transcription for each extract. Part III looks at inter and intra-speaker variation: it begins with chapters that provide the methodological background to the study of phonological variation using databases, while in the second section authors present case studies of a number of PFC survey points, including Paris, the Central African Republic, and Quebec. Varieties of Spoken French will be an invaluable resource for researchers, teachers, and students of all aspects of French language and linguistics.

Download or read book Apprendre Traduire written by Valentine Watson Rodger and published by Canadian Scholars’ Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sur les trente exercices de la troisième édition d'Apprendre à traduire, dix sont nouveaux. Si certains portent sur des questions déjà abordées dans les deux premières éditions, d'autres se penchent sur de nouveaux problèmes: sigles et acronymes, écriteaux et panneaux; les prépositions with et avec, on et sur. Deux exercices composés spécifiquement à cette fin sont consacrés à la question des niveaux de langue à laquelle les éditions précédentes n'avaient pas accordé l'attention qu'elle mérite. Ailleurs dans le manuel, on a remplacé ou modifié toutes les phrases à traduire qui étaient démodées; on a également apporté aux introductions explicatives de certains exercices des modifications destinées à les rendre plus complètes, plus claires, plus efficaces. Tous les exercices comportent donc quelques éléments nouveaux. Le lexique du manuel est contemporain et sera utile à l'étudiant, non seulement dans la dissertation et dans d'autres cours, mais aussi dans la conversation courante. Ainsi rajeuni, Apprendre à traduire répondra beaucoup mieux aux besoins actuels des étudiants et à ceux de leurs professeurs.
Download or read book Structural and Sociolinguistic Perspectives on Indigenisation written by Eric A. Anchimbe and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Descriptions of new varieties of European languages in postcolonial contexts have focused exceedingly on system-based indigenisation and variation. This volume–while further illustrating processes and instantiations of indigenisation at this level–incorporates investigations of sociolinguistic and pragmatic phenomena in daily social interaction–e.g. politeness, respect, compliment response, naming and address forms, and gender–through innovative analytic frameworks that view indigenisation from emic perspectives. Focusing on postcolonial Cameroon and using natural and questionnaire data, the book assesses the salience of linguistic and sociocultural hybridisation triggered by colonialism and, recently, globalisation in interaction in and across languages and cultures. The authors illustrate how the multilingual nature of the society and individuals’ multilingual repertoires shape patterns in the indigenisation and evolution of the ex-colonial languages, English and French, and Pidgin English.
