Bilingual Language Acquisition
How do children develop bilingual competence? Do bilingual children develop language in the same way as monolinguals? Set in the context of findings on language development, this book examines the acquisition of English and Spanish by two brothers in the first six years of their lives. Based on in-depth and meticulous analyses of naturalistic data, it explores how the systems of both languages affect each other as the children develop, and how different levels of exposure to each language influence the nature of acquisition. The author demonstrates that the children's grammars and lexicons follow a developmental path similar to that of monolinguals, but that cross-linguistic interactions affecting lexical, semantic and discourse-pragmatic aspects arise in Spanish when exposure to it diminishes around the age of four. The first of its kind, this original study is a must-read for students and researchers in bilingualism, child development, language acquisition and language contact.

The study of these instances permits the analysis and interpretation of their guiding principles, their translation practice and underlying reasoning. It also permits the modern linguist to discern semantic changes that can be revealed in these missionary translations over certain periods. Up to now there has hardly been any study availabl...
Unconventional Anthroponyms
Unconventional Anthroponyms: Formation Patterns and Discursive Function continues a series of collective volumes comprising studies on onomastics, edited by Oliviu Felecan with Cambridge Scholars Publishing. Previous titles in this series include Name and Naming: Synchronic and Diachronic Perspectives (2012) and Onomastics in Contemporary Public Space (2013, co-edited with Alina Bugheşiu). In contemporary naming practice, one can distinguish two verbal (linguistic) means of nominal referential identification: a “natural” one, which occurs in the process of conventional, official, canonical, standard naming and results in conventional/official/canonical/standard anthroponyms; a “motiva...

Fonaments de la comunicació
Són molts els estudiants que s’inicien en les Ciències de la Informació dins d’alguna de les tres branques de la carrera: Periodisme, Comunicació Audiovisual i Publicitat. A partir dels coneixements bàsics, aquest llibre fa un repàs de les nocions més conegudes pels estudiants vinculades al camp de la comunicació (Gramàtica del text, Física, Lingüística, Sociologia ...) per aprofundir posteriorment en els nous conceptes comunicatius. Aquest manual esdevé una eina bàsica de gran utilitat per la formació teòrica dels futurs comunicòlegs.
