Scott A. Evans – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Although a growing body of research has sought to understand the relationship between word order and information structure, previous information structure (IS) analyses of verb-subject order have produced conflicting results for Medieval French, which have subsequently led to conflicting claims about the importance of IS to its word order as well…

Maria Goldshtein; Jaclyn Ocumpaugh; Andrew Potter; Rod D. Roscoe – Grantee Submission, 2024
As language technologies have become more sophisticated and prevalent, there have been increasing concerns about bias in natural language processing (NLP). Such work often focuses on the effects of bias instead of sources. In contrast, this paper discusses how normative language assumptions and ideologies influence a range of automated language…

Masood Khoshsaligheh; Azadeh Eriss; Milad Mehdizadkhani; Elnaz Pakar – International Journal of Multilingualism, 2024
Filmmakers increasingly resort to using multiple languages in their work to realistically reflect today's globalised world. However, this multiplicity poses specific challenges in the process of translation for dubbing. This study explores the rendition of Western multilingual films into Persian dubbed versions for the Iranian audience. Films as…

O'Connell, Noel – Sign Language Studies, 2022
The development of a considerable body of literature on British Sign Language (BSL) now permits analyzing and describing the sociolinguistic history of the language. An impressive amount of sociolinguistic information on BSL pertaining to the United Kingdom (UK) provides rich material for such analysis, but, until now, very little BSL research has…

Isbell, Daniel R.; Crowther, Dustin – Applied Linguistics, 2023
As the global importance of English and its proportion of non-native speakers have continued to grow, research on Global Englishes has prioritized non-native speakers' changing attitudes toward non-native varieties. To investigate changes in attitudes among 'Inner Circle' English speakers, we conceptually replicated Lindemann's (2005) survey of…

Rachel Elizabeth Weiher – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Resulting from France's centuries-long colonial project across several continents, French is estimated to be the fifth most widely spoken language globally. Yet, despite its presence across continents and despite the linguistic diversity within France itself, notions of 'good' and 'correct' French continue to be associated with the image of the…

Rachel McKee; Mireille Vale – Current Issues in Language Planning, 2024
This paper examines recent lexical expansion in New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL) in the context of change in the status of the language and ongoing contact with other (spoken and signed) languages. We categorised 917 new signs documented in the past five years according to their source, semantic field, and sign formation mechanism(s), both…

Clàudia Roca; Ignasi Ivern; Ignacio Cifre; Olga Bruna – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: In the Spanish and Catalan context, there is currently a lack of standardized, linguistically adapted tools to assess people with communication disorders. This lack is especially evident when it comes to instruments designed to assess functional communication. Aims: The main objective of this study is to adapt the instrument entitled…

Hanna Pulaczewska – Interpreter and Translator Trainer, 2024
In Polish, where different inflectional paradigms apply to female and male names, attributing male gender to female referents such as eminent scientists and authors that pass unnoticed in English becomes visible in scholarly as well as popular scientific texts, exposing the society's gender bias. While gender bias in machine translation has been…

Aislinn Keogh; Simon Kirby; Jennifer Culbertson – Cognitive Science, 2024
General principles of human cognition can help to explain why languages are more likely to have certain characteristics than others: structures that are difficult to process or produce will tend to be lost over time. One aspect of cognition that is implicated in language use is working memory--the component of short-term memory used for temporary…

Yves Bestgen – Applied Linguistics, 2024
Measuring lexical diversity in texts that have different lengths is problematic because length has a significant effect on the number of types a text contains, thus hampering any comparison. Treffers-Daller et al. (2018) recommended a simple solution, namely counting the number of types in a section of a given length that was extracted from the…

Finune O. Shaibi – ProQuest LLC, 2024
Teacher diversity is essential for creating inclusive learning environments, as teachers who reflect their students' backgrounds can better serve their needs and positively impact learning outcomes. As the Sweet Home CSD classrooms become increasingly diverse, the homogenous teaching force has failed to keep pace, with more than ninety-six (96%)…

This qualitative study explores the lived experiences of former high school African immigrant students (AIS) in US classrooms.

Lone Sundahl Olsen; Kristine Jensen de López – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2025
Background: Research on the grammatical characteristics of children with developmental language disorder (DLD) across languages has challenged accounts about the nature of DLD. Studies of the characteristics of DLD in different languages can reveal which components of DLD emerge irrespective of language and which components are language specific.…

Gilquin, Gaëtanelle – Language Teaching, 2022
This paper considers the issue of the norm in the context of learner corpus research and its implications for foreign language teaching. It seeks to answer three main questions: Does learner corpus research require a native norm? What corpus-derived norms are available and how do we choose? What do we do with these norms in the classroom? The…
