Language attrition research has developed in several clearly delimited phases spanning, roughly, each of the three decades between 1982 and 2012 (see Kopke & Schmid 2004 for a more detailed overview and analysis). The first phase was an era of stocktaking, with a number of symposia, collected volumes and special issues of journals. All of…

Demonstrates some of the limits of the translation of sound effects in poetry from a purely linguistic point of view, as opposed to a literary critical one. Three examples of poetry were recorded in the original language and transcribed phonetically, as were English translations of the same works. (Author/VWL)

This bibliography of generative-based grammatical analyses of Spanish provides an enumerative supplemental listing of entries not included in two recently published annotated, critical bibliographies (Nuessel, 1978, 1979). The majority of the entries of this supplemental document cover the period of 1976-1979, but a few entries date before 1976.…

This paper explores the issues involved in the linguistic characterisation of disordered discourse and the ways in which a Systemic Functional Linguistic framework addresses these issues. For many years, language disorders were described in terms of formal grammars, with "breakdown" discussed in terms of one or more of the traditional levels of…

This unannotated bibliography consists of 160 citations of books and journal articles dealing with linguistics (traditional grammar, semantics, syntax, morphology, inflectional rules, transformational grammar, generative phonology), language usage, language acquisition, psycholinguistics, verbal behavior, psychology, and the philosophy of…

One hundred sixty-eight books, articles, and dissertations written between 1960 and 1973 are listed in this bibliography of linguistic studies of the Spanish language within the grammatical theory originated by Noam Chomsky in his "Syntactic Structures" (1957). The present work is divided into two general categories: (1) phonology and (2) syntax…

In view of assertions that reading is a form of constrained reasoning, evidence is presented that indicates that lexical access in fluent readers is not at all like reasoning or problem solving. Reading theory is discussed in terms of cognitive science, connectionism, context use in word recognition, modularity, constructivism, and phonological…

This bibliography lists 31 citations of research reports, books, journal articles, and other publications concerning Karakalpak, one of the smaller languages of the Soviet Union which has an Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. The citations are also indexed by reverse chronological order, country of origin, and subject. (MSE)

This annotated bibliography of 29 documents on the Turkman language includes phonologies, morphologies, dictionaries, and bibliographies in English, French, German, Russian, and Turkman, and is intended to increase documentation of scholarly research on the Turkman language. Some citations are for very rare books, and three important Turkman…

This annotated bibliography, which has been entered into the SOLAR Bibliography File, focuses on the phonetics and phonology of tone, including studies on the physiology of phonation and pitch control, pitch perception, inherent pitch of vowels, the interaction of tone with musical melody in tone languages, and other related issues. An attempt has…

Designed to introduce the reader to the main works in normal (nondeviant) child phonology available in English, this annotated bibliography includes 2 general readers on child language and 27 books and articles with primary emphasis on phonology. The annotations, intended to be primarily descriptive, summarize: the design of each study; its…

This bibliography consists of three sections, the entries in each having to do with the British contribution in linguistics. The first section lists relevant books, with entries in all areas of linguistics, while the second section cites periodicals. The third section cites surveys done of British work. The surveys include material published…

This supplement to "A Bibliography of Generative-Based Grammatical Analyses of Spanish" includes all available materials that have appeared since November 1973, and pre-1973 entries not contained in the original bibliography, particularly items published outside the U.S. The present bibliography, like the original, contains two general divisions:…

Research suggests that oral language development is directly related to literacy, and is crucial for success in learning to be literate. This topical bibliography and commentary discusses language acquisition theories, components of language, phonology in literacy, and a first-grade classroom study that explored "literate talk" in the classroom…

Linguistics is on the verge of becoming an experimental discipline; an undergraduate major tailored to reflect this can attract a wider range of students, relate linguistics subject matter to the real world in a more exciting way, challenge students to address more deeply the problems of philosophy and philosophy of science than in some other…
