Written Language, Standard Language, Global Language
World Englishes, 2003AbstractEnglish, along with a small number of other languages in the modern period, has expanded away from local through national to international domains, changing significantly along the way. But the changes are not simply those that take place in the normal course of the history of a language; other changes come about as a language takes on new ...

This chapter deals with verbal immediacy, or those variations which occur within speech itself. It discusses the variations that include linguistic components, such as pronouns, tense, or kinds of symbols (words) used to refer to an object. The linguistic components considered in these analyses include words that designate the object(s) of the ...

The editorial organization of the contents of the Course in General Linguistics contributed to establishing the primacy of the language system (la langue) by situating it above the empirical plurality of world languages (les langues). La langue is defined by means of dogmatic, axiom-like statements with little empirical justification or background ...

I have been arguing so far for the presence of a paradigm of deconstruction in the image of childhood, and have further suggested that the use of this image precludes its being used to provide closure or metacomment. That is to say, the adult recognises the apparent impossibility of becoming a child and therefore also recognises the implicitly partial ...

Heritage languages, such as the Turkish varieties spoken in Berlin or the Spanish used in Los Angeles, are non-dominant languages, often with little prestige.

There is little hope of reconstructing by means of comparative or typological studies a lingua adamica essentially different from present-day languages. The distant preverbal past is however still present in live speech. Phonetic, syntactic and semantic rule transgressions, far from being products of a deficient output, are governed by a universal ...

Language acquisition and language change
WIREs Cognitive Science, 2010AbstractChildren acquire a mature language system and sometimes this system differs from that of their parents. This is a significant part of language change and understanding acquisition is key to understanding this kind of change in people's internal grammars. I outline one approach to language acquisition, based on children finding cues expressed in

This work began with the words that remain without being written. It grew from moments where the rhythm and breath flowing between bodies outlast speech, and meaning is transmitted without record. Moving between ancient marketplaces and modern cafés, gestures, glances, and the length of silences become sentences, and people read them.

Abstract Lewis attempts the synthesis of two rival accounts: the thesis, according to which languages are a semantic system abstracted from the nature and history of human affairs; and the antithesis, according to which language is a rational, convention‐governed human social activity.
