This study aims to determine whether bilingual phenomena occur in the speech of Albanian bilingual students with high exposure to English, in an attempt to detect the influence of English on the Albanian language. Special attention is paid to bilingual aspects like codeswitching, lexical borrowings, calques, and hybrid compounds. Data have been gathered through participant systematic observation: Albanian bilingual students have been observed within informal settings of Pristina international schools. Their conversations have been recorded and transcribed for further analysis. The study shows that code-switching is the most common linguistic behaviour among the students under investigation. However, in addition to code-switching, lexical borrowings and calques also play a roughly equivalent role in their speech. This research provides evidence of bilingual phenomena resulting from direct, everyday language contact between English and Albanian in Pristina international schools, which aids in understanding the sociolinguistic changes brought about by such contact.
本研究旨在确定高英语接触的阿尔巴尼亚双语学生的言语中是否存在双语现象,试图检测英语对阿尔巴尼亚语的影响。特别注意的是双语方面,如代码转换,词汇借用,calques和混合化合物。通过参与者系统观察收集了数据:在普里什蒂纳国际学校的非正式环境中观察了阿尔巴尼亚双语学生。他们的谈话已被记录下来,以供进一步分析。研究表明,语码转换是被调查学生中最常见的语言行为。然而,除了语码转换外,词汇借用和假语在他们的言语中也起着大致相当的作用。这项研究提供了普里什蒂纳国际学校中英语和阿尔巴尼亚语之间直接日常语言接触所产生的双语现象的证据,这有助于理解这种接触所带来的社会语言学变化。

EFL writing is a complex and difficult productive skill for young learners. National assessment of EFL at the end of Year 6 in Slovenia shows that additional research into the various variables affecting EFL writing is needed. The aim of this study is to predict the relationship between gender, place of living, home possessions, years of schooling and parents’ education, and EFLwriting performance for Year 6 students. A representative sample of 790 pupils completed a demographic e-questionnaire and two writing e-tasks. According to ANOVA , statistically significant factors are home possessions, number of Slovenian and English books, years of learning English and mother’s education. Statistically insignificant factors are gender, place of living and father’s education. Demographic factors predict EFL writing performance by 9.9%. 
英语写作对年轻学习者来说是一项复杂而困难的生产性技能。斯洛文尼亚六年级结束时对EFL的全国评估表明,需要对影响EFL写作的各种变量进行进一步的研究。本研究旨在预测六年级学生的性别、居住地、房屋、受教育年限和父母教育程度与英语写作成绩之间的关系。790名学生的代表性样本完成了一份人口统计电子问卷和两份电子写作任务。根据方差分析,统计上显著的因素是家庭财产、斯洛文尼亚语和英语书籍的数量、学习英语的年数和母亲的教育程度。统计上不显著的因素是性别、居住地和父亲的教育程度。人口统计学因素对英语写作表现的预测为9.9%。

Becoming the Rhizomatic Outsider: A Study of the Narrative Deconstruction of Being in Ali Smith’s The Accidental 成为根状的局外人:阿里·史密斯《偶然》中存在的叙事解构研究
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-06-29 DOI: 10.4312/elope.20.1.203-221
Sara Nazockdast, Z. Ramin
Ali Smith’s novels and short stories are violently realistic in terms of depicting the hollow and disconnected lives of the postmodern individual. However, they also, albeit obliquely, aspire for hope and change. The loss of a sense of location, direction, and, as a result, a meaningful presence is interwoven in The Accidental’s persistent concern with time. Accordingly, in this essay, drawing upon Michael Kane’s analysis of postmodern time and space, The Accidental is studied with regard to capitalist time and simulacra, the culture of pastiche and spectacle, and spatiotemporal fragmentation. Within this backdrop and informed by Derridean deconstruction complemented with the study’s Deleuzian framework, the novel’s subversive deconstructions of a metaphysics of being and the substitution of fictional becoming are explored. It is argued that The Accidental corporealizes supplementarity and employs rhizomatic disruptions in the lives of the characters and the structure of the narrative to open up deterritorized spaces for monoritarian authenticity, agency, and creativity.
阿里·史密斯的小说和短篇小说在描绘后现代个体空洞和不连贯的生活方面具有强烈的现实主义色彩。然而,他们也渴望希望和改变,尽管是间接的。地点感、方向感的丧失,以及有意义的存在感的丧失,交织在《偶然》对时间的持续关注中。因此,在本文中,借鉴迈克尔·凯恩对后现代时间和空间的分析,《偶然》从资本主义的时间和拟像、模仿和景观文化以及时空碎片化等方面进行了研究。在这样的背景下,在德里德里解构主义和德勒兹研究框架的补充下,小说对存在形而上学的颠覆性解构和对虚构的替代进行了探索。作者认为,《偶然的集体》实现了补充,并在人物生活和叙事结构中采用了根茎式的破坏,为单一主义的真实性、能动性和创造力开辟了非领地化的空间。

Journalistic Transcreation of News Agency Articles from English into Serbian: Associated Press and Reuters Articles in Blic and N1 Online Portals 新闻机构文章从英语到塞尔维亚语的新闻创作:美联社和路透社在public和N1在线门户网站上的文章

Transcreation refers to adapting translated content to suit the target audience’s context, culture, and expectations. Predominantly researched in marketing, this phenomenon has recently come under scrutiny as a method of transferring foreign news to local readership. This paper explores journalistic transcreation in Blic and N1, the two most visited Serbian online news portals, considered to be on opposing ideological and political spectrums. As a point of comparison, articles in English are taken from web portals of the two leading news agencies globally – the Associated Press and Reuters – as their reporting practices are regarded as more factual and less biased compared to non-agency media. The findings reveal transcreation’s much greater presence in the Blic portal, as illustrated in two selected examples, which might stem from the portal’s pro-government reporting and reader base who predominantly have absolute trust in the government or support it in the hopes of gaining employment via political affiliation.
译创指的是对翻译后的内容进行调整,以适应目标受众的语境、文化和期望。这种现象主要是在市场营销中进行研究,最近作为一种将外国新闻传递给当地读者的方法受到了仔细审查。本文探讨了访问量最大的两个塞尔维亚在线新闻门户网站Blic和N1的新闻创作,这两个网站被认为是对立的意识形态和政治光谱。作为比较,英文文章取自全球两大主要新闻机构——美联社和路透社的门户网站,因为与非通讯社媒体相比,它们的报道方式被认为更真实,偏见更少。调查结果显示,在公共门户网站中,创译的存在感要大得多,如两个选择的例子所示,这可能源于门户网站的亲政府报道和读者基础,他们主要对政府有绝对的信任,或者支持政府,希望通过政治关系获得就业机会。

Nikola Jokić
The goal of this paper is to investigate English as a lingua franca (ELF), a phenomenon that has attracted much attention in the last twenty years. Specifically, it aims to analyse the communicative strategies non-native speakers of English employ with a view to securing understanding. To achieve this, informal ELF conversations among Erasmus students at the University of Graz are investigated. This study deploys qualitative methods, i.e., semistructured interviews with Erasmus students were tape-recorded and transcribed. Therefore, communication strategies that contribute to mutual understanding are presented along with examples and their frequency of usage in the data. Furthermore, the numerous functions of communication strategies are mentioned along with possible explanations of their use. The findings show that Erasmus students employ various strategies with the aim of achieving mutual understanding and preventing possible communication problems.
本文的目的是研究英语作为一种通用语言(ELF),这一现象在过去的二十年中引起了广泛的关注。具体来说,它旨在分析非英语母语者使用的交际策略,以确保理解。为了达到这个目的,我们调查了格拉茨大学伊拉斯谟学生之间非正式的ELF对话。本研究采用定性方法,即对伊拉斯谟学生的半结构化访谈进行录音和转录。因此,有助于相互理解的沟通策略连同示例及其在数据中的使用频率一起呈现。此外,还提到了沟通策略的众多功能以及对其使用的可能解释。研究结果表明,伊拉斯谟学生采用各种策略,目的是实现相互理解和防止可能的沟通问题。

An ELF-Oriented Corpus-Based Analysis into the EMI Lecturers’ Use of Spatial Deixis across Two Different Teaching Media 以elf为导向的语料库分析EMI讲师跨两种不同教学媒体使用空间指示语
Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2023-06-29 DOI: 10.4312/elope.20.1.89-112
Mariangela Picciuolo
In the last two decades, English-Medium Instruction (EMI) has fast increased in non-Anglophone universities, with the result that non-native English speaker (NNES) lecturers are increasingly using English as a lingua franca (ELF) to interact with their NNES students in the classroom. As such, EMI represents “a prototypical ELF scenario” (Smit 2017, 387). This paper identifies and describes language variations that occurred in EMI lecturers’ talk in a comparable corpus of six EMI engineering lectures taught in two different teaching modalities: in-person and virtual synchronous classrooms. By means of a corpus-based methodology, this study particularly focuses on lexical spatial deixis as it allows the lecturer to direct students’ attention towards a common referent so as to ensure students’ comprehension and participation (Hyland 2005). The findings indicate that the use of proximal deictics differs according to the context, with interactional and pedagogical implications beyond EMI.
在过去的二十年里,英语媒介教学(EMI)在非英语国家的大学中迅速增加,结果是非英语母语(NNES)的讲师越来越多地使用英语作为通用语言(ELF)在课堂上与他们的NNES学生互动。因此,EMI代表了“一个典型的ELF场景”(Smit 2017, 387)。本文识别并描述了EMI讲师在两种不同教学模式(面对面和虚拟同步教室)中讲授的六个EMI工程讲座的可比语料库中发生的语言变化。通过基于语料库的方法,本研究特别关注词汇空间指示,因为它允许讲师将学生的注意力引导到一个共同的指称物上,以确保学生的理解和参与(Hyland 2005)。研究结果表明,近端指示语的使用根据上下文而不同,除了EMI之外,还具有互动和教学意义。

Ongoing Objectification, Marginalization and Sexualization of Women in Michael Ondaatje’s The English Patient and Divisadero: Old Patterns, New Disguises 迈克尔·翁达杰的《英国病人》和《分裂者:旧模式,新伪装》中女性的持续物化、边缘化和性化

Lilijana Burcar
The year 2023 marks Michael Ondaatje’s 80th birthday, a landmark in the author’s life and an occasion for literary critics to look back and revisit what are perhaps some of the more troubling aspects of his literary production. Ondaatje’s poetry and fiction have received little attention from feminist literary critics, which is due to the author’s conservative take on the figuration of female characters and representation of women. While some critics have proposed that The English Patient (1992), and therefore also by extension his novel Divisadero (2007), might signify a turning point in Ondaatje’s otherwise problematic gender politics, this article demonstrates that earlier patterns of women’s objectification, sexualization and marginalization found in Ondaatje’s poetry and fiction persist in both of these seemingly more progressive works, albeit in new forms and disguises. This article also introduces a new concept to the field of (feminist) literary theory, the so-called blazon in prose.
2023年是迈克尔·翁达杰(Michael Ondaatje)的80岁生日,这是这位作家一生中的一个里程碑,也是文学评论家回顾和重温他的文学作品中可能更令人不安的一些方面的机会。翁达杰的诗歌和小说很少受到女权主义文学评论家的关注,这是由于作者对女性人物形象和女性表现的保守态度。尽管一些评论家认为《英国病人》(1992)以及他的小说《分裂者》(2007)可能标志着翁达杰在其他方面存在问题的性别政治的转折点,但本文表明,在翁达杰的诗歌和小说中发现的早期女性的客观化、性化和边缘化模式,在这两部看似更进步的作品中仍然存在,尽管是以新的形式和伪装。本文还向(女性主义)文论领域引入了一个新概念,即所谓的散文体。

There is an increase in brand marketing on the websites of universities in a bid to present the kind of identities that will best promote them. This study examines the identities universities project to market their brands within the context of consumer culture of the contemporary higher educational setting. Data for the study were obtained from the websites of 24 public and private universities in Nigeria and were analysed based on Fairclough’s (2015) dialectical relational theory and Roper and Parker’s (2006) insights on branding. The findings reveal seven kinds of identity: professional, national, transnational, humanist, Afrocentric, ethnic and religious. These identities range from the ideal to narrow-interest ones. The study concludes that identity construction in any university should aim primarily at advancing knowledge and producing total graduates who would be able to adapt and survive in any part of the world and contribute meaningfully to societal development.
大学网站上的品牌营销有所增加,目的是展示最能宣传自己的身份。本研究探讨了在当代高等教育的消费文化背景下,大学项目营销其品牌的身份。该研究的数据来自尼日利亚24所公立和私立大学的网站,并根据Fairclough(2015)的辩证关系理论和Roper和Parker(2006)对品牌的见解进行了分析。研究结果揭示了七种身份:专业、国家、跨国、人道主义、非洲中心、种族和宗教。这些身份既有理想的,也有狭隘的。该研究的结论是,任何大学的身份建构都应该以推进知识和培养能够在世界任何地方适应和生存并为社会发展做出有意义贡献的毕业生为主要目标。

The study concludes that identity construction in any university should aim primarily at advancing knowledge and producing total graduates who would be able to adapt and survive in any part of the world and contribute meaningfully to societal development.","PeriodicalId":37589,"journal":{"name":"ELOPE: English Language Overseas Perspectives and Enquiries","volume":"132 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80924746","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

‘Experience Norfolk! Experience Fun!’ vs. ‘Doživi više od očekivanog’ – A Corpus-Based Contrastive Study of Reader Engagement Markers on the Web

The paper investigates how reader engagement markers (Hyland 2005; Zou and Hyland 2020) are used in tourism promotion to establish interaction with potential customers on the web. The markers are extracted using AntConc software from two comparable corpora in English and Serbian compiled from the web texts of regional tourism organizations. Normalized frequencies per 1,000 words are calculated, followed by a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the most frequent markers. The results are interpreted in view of the differences and similarities in the two corpora considering the distribution and communicative functions of the markers, and the cultural aspects of this kind of interaction with the reader. The findings shed light on the implied concepts underlying reader-oriented engagement and written e-communication practices in the context of tourism discourse. The results can be used for the data-driven teaching of writing and translation studies.
本文研究了读者参与标记(Hyland 2005;在旅游推广中使用Zou和Hyland 2020)来建立与网络上潜在客户的互动。使用AntConc软件从两个可比较的英语和塞尔维亚语料库中提取标记,这些语料库是从区域旅游组织的网络文本中编译的。计算每1000个单词的归一化频率,然后对最常见的标记进行定量和定性分析。从两个语料库的异同、标记语的分布和交际功能以及这种与读者互动的文化方面来解释这些结果。研究结果揭示了旅游话语背景下以读者为导向的参与和书面电子交流实践的隐含概念。研究结果可用于数据驱动的写作和翻译教学。
