A Bilingual Revolution for Africa
The book provides a unique, truly interdisciplinary approach to multilingual education in Africa. The authors examine the potential of multilingual education across the countries of Africa and in diverse sectors, while assessing the potential of multilingual education across the continent. They share their perspective on the various applications and models of dual-language education and on ways to encourage their growth and scale locally.
The Syntax Workbook
A valuable companion to Andrew Carnie's Syntax: A Generative Introduction, 4th Edition, full of practice questions and engaging exercises to promote student comprehension Syntax: A Generative Introduction, Fourth Edition, is the leading textbook for undergraduate courses in the syntax, covering foundational topics such as universal grammar, parts of speech, constituency, trees, structural relations, binding theory, x-bar theory, and movement, as well as advanced subjects such as control theory, ellipsis, polysynthesis, incorporation, non-configurationality, and Merge. Written by Syntax author Andrew Carnie, The Syntax Workbook has been purposefully designed to support and complement the use ...
Une révolution bilingue pour l'Afrique
Une révolution bilingue pour l'Afrique explore la promesse et le potentiel de l'éducation plurilingue sur le continent africain. Composés d'experts de l'éducation, de chercheurs et d'acteurs de terrain, les auteurs proposent, à travers une série d'essais pertinents et éclairés, un examen précis de l'enseignement en deux langues en Afrique. Ces perspectives quant aux différentes formes d'éducation bilingue, les stratégies visant à en promouvoir leur développement et leur mise en œuvre localement, sont sans pareilles. Ce livre présente une vision optimiste et avant-gardiste de l'éducation bilingue et de son avenir en Afrique, tout en dissipant activement les mythes et les idées fausses qui ont entravé la progression de cette approche comme vecteur d'inclusion, d'équité, de qualité, de croissance économique et de développement du capital humain dans les sociétés richement plurilingues d'Afrique.

African multilingualism and the Agenda 2030 / Multilinguisme africain et l'Agenda 2030
The UN Agenda 2030 read as an expression of a commitment to predefined goals, raises the question of a link, between failure to provide for needs of linguistic inclusion on the one hand and lingering deficits of adhesion on the other. Stated as a key factor for implementation sensitivity to language diversity correlates positively with inclusivity and sustainability, as this volume explains through case studies ranging from agriculture to health, education, human rights and ecology, and from digital inclusion to translation and science, thus enabling comparative advantages to turn language barriers into interfaces for `glocal' development.
Conversations sur le bilinguisme
Pourquoi les bilingues mélangent-ils les mots ? Les bilingues sont-ils meilleurs en multitâche ? Les bilingues sont-ils plus intelligents que les monolingues ? Comment rendre l'éducation bilingue accessible à tous les enfants ? Quel est le meilleur âge pour commencer une nouvelle langue ? Dans la lignée de La Révolution Bilingue : Le futur de l'éducation s'écrit en deux langues, l'ouvrage Conversations sur le bilinguisme constitue une avancée significative du travail de Fabrice Jaumont. Il y accentue son engagement pour le plurilinguisme, soutient vigoureusement les familles et communautés multilingues et encourage la compréhension interculturelle. En outre, ce livre prône la maîtrise de la langue comme compétence vitale, en promouvant le développement et la mise en œuvre de programmes éducatifs de haute qualité, en valorisant la diversité et en menant une lutte résolue contre les inégalités.
Elements of Comparative Syntax
This volume brings together a selection of articles illustrating the multifaceted nature of current research in generative syntax. The authors, including some of the leading figures in the field, present analyses of typologically diverse languages, with some studies drawing on dialectal, acquisitional and diachronic evidence. Set against this rich empirical background, the contributions address an equally wide range of theoretical issues.
Empirical and Theoretical Approaches to Language Acquisition
This volume presents original up-to-date research in the field of language acquisition. The contributions reflect experimental work guided by linguistic theory, covering different populations of learners, a wide range of linguistic phenomena, a variety of empirical methods, and a rich set of typologically different languages. The studies investigate first and second language acquisition, as well as acquisition in children with developmental language disorder or hearing impairment. The different chapters address various phenomena in the areas of morpho-syntax, phonology, and semantics. This edited collection of papers is a valuable reference for researchers who are interested in language acquisition research and its multifaceted nature. The book highlights the fruitful connection between empirical research and linguistic theory, making it interesting to both psycholinguists and theoretical linguists. The experimental studies collected in this book contribute to our understanding of how different types of learners acquire and process language and can offer novel insights to theoretical linguistics as well.
Clarisse
Später ist man sich nicht sicher, ob das, was man glaubt gesehen zu haben, auch der Wirklichkeit entspricht. René legte die Hände hinter den Kopf und runzelte die Stirn. Das wäre ein guter Anfang für seinen neuen Roman. Der würde dann auch keinen englischen Titel bekommen wie sein letzter: Sommertime. Auf Wunsch des Herren Verlegers. Nein, nein, Pierre, diesmal nicht! Schriftsteller René G. sitz in seinem Lieblingscafe, bis diese Frau in rot an ihm vorbeigeht. Er ist fasziniert und kann nur noch an sie denken. Und der jungen Frau, der Dame in rot, geht es ebenso. Ein spannende Liebesgeschichte bahn sich an, denn vierzehn Tage später trifft sie ihn wieder, in eben diesem Café.
Structuring Variation in Romance Linguistics and Beyond
Current theoretical approaches to language devote great attention to macro- and micro-variation and show an ever-increasing interest in minority languages. In this respect, few empirical domains are as rich and lively as the Italo-Romance languages, which together with Albanian were the main research domain of Leonardo M. Savoia. The volume covers areas as different as phonology, morphology, syntax and the lexicon. A broad range of Romance languages is considered, as well as Albanian, Greek and Hungarian, shedding new light on many classical topics. The first section focuses on morphosyntax, both in the narrow sense and with regard to its interfaces. The second section focuses on clitics and pronouns. The third section deals with a number of issues in phonology and syntax-phonology interface. The last section turns the reader’s attention beyond formal linguistics itself and examines variation in the light of neurosciences, pathology, historical linguistics and political discourse.
