This volume brings together a selection of papers in linguistics presented at the 13th edition of the Conference on British and American Studies. Structured into three chapters, the studies included here are illustrative for the different perspectives, methodologies, and research traditions in the investigation of language-related phenomena. The first chapter, “Language Change and Cross-Linguistic Analysis”, is mainly concerned with the external and internal catalysts for language change, and with a number of morphosyntactic and semantic particularities of Romanian, set in contrast with other languages. Aspects related to first or second language learning and language as an instrument of thought form the content of the second chapter, “Language Acquisition, Teaching and Processing”. The focus of the final chapter, “Pragmatics, Translation, and the Negotiation of Meaning”, is language as an instrument of power and (self-)communication.

Clankie studies how some brand name products make their way into generic usage for a service or action. An example is Xerox as a brand name product, where linguistically the word is now used as a verb for the action -- "I'll xerox this page"--And the word is used as an adjective for the results -- "Do you have xerox copies?" In doing so, he explores the underlying system of naming products, why some product names are genericized while others are not, and the social and economic impact of the idea.
