This study reconsiders the well-documented argument that young Japanese women's romantic desire (akogare) for the gender equality of the West motivates them to study English. This study analyzes numerical and written data from 100 female Japanese English learners aged 20 to 59. The findings revealed that while akogare for the West serves as a catalyst for English study among them, the motivational effect differs by age and self-perceived English proficiency. The study also shows that many research participants assess young Japanese women's akogare for the West as natural due to their perceptions of the West as a place endowed with positive attributes (e.g., appreciation for individual freedom).

This study investigates how the instruction of embodied, ongoing activities and tasks is sequentially organized. The study is based on video recordings from various settings, including surgery, handicrafts, and driving. It builds on previous conversation analytic research on sequence organization and elaborates on notions such as adjacency pairs and retro-sequences. The study demonstrates that instructional interactions aimed at teaching and learning bodily and manual skills are organized in ways distinct from interactions where the focus of the activity can be achieved through talk alone. The actions of experts and novices are occasioned by and operate on ongoing, embodied, and visually accessible courses of action, constituting the performance of the task. Both instructors and novices analyse tasks and activities into component parts and orient towards the developing horizon of future steps. Instructions and the work of following them are responsive and indexical to the unfolding performance and to what needs to be done next. This results in sequence organizations that parallel but in significant respects differ from those found in talk-in-interaction.

This paper aims at addressing issues related to the expression of subjectivity in media discourse, and more specifically to highlight the presence of doxa among journalists’ discourse. These issues will be addressed through an analysis of the transcript of the morning broadcast of two radio channels – the public radio channel in France, France Inter, and in French-speaking Belgium, La Première – covering the “attack” on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6th, 2021. Because it reports an event which was at the same time very politically loaded and unexpected, the journalistic account of this event helps to reveal and question the continuum between facts reporting and the expression of personal opinions, with all the nuances of clear and less clear sharing of subjective viewpoint in between. The paper shows that subjectivity is present under different guises, including attribution, evaluative statements and doxa. The paper then establishes the difference between the plurality of voices and the plurality of viewpoints – a key distinction in the production of information and in the journalistic habitus.

The goal of this study is to investigate the relationship between formal and semantic neological procedures in the coinage of COVID-19-related emerging realities. Our study is based on a survey conducted to elicit the spontaneous creation of neologisms in Spanish related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants were asked to name a set of pandemic-related objects presented to them in a set of pictures. Naming strategies resulted mostly from the intersection of metonyms with compounding and metaphors with syntagmation. Participants preferred metonymy-based strategies to name objects they have fewer clues to identify. On the other hand, objects resulting from the adaptation of pre-existing items were mostly named using metaphors.

The present paper aims at reconstructing, analyzing, and explaining the framing of the situation at the Polish-Belarusian border in 2021 and early 2022 by Poland’s two most influential television stations: the state-controlled right-wing TVP and the commercial left-liberal TVN. The main analytical approach used in this study was Discourse-Historical Approach (DHA). It is a branch of Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) that pays special attention to the sociopolitical contexts, allowing the researcher to go beyond purely linguistic analyses and focus on (both micro and meso) sociological implications. Therefore, the study analyzed the discourses through the lenses of securitization and embedding the findings into a broader discussion about migration in Poland. The paper demonstrates that the coverage of the events by both stations was radically different: the state television largely reproduced the discourse of the then ruling party, whereas the liberal TVN focused on the delegitimization of the then government and the border guard, accusing them of violating international law.

While refusals as a speech act have been extensively studied, little research has explored how individuals respond to refusals, particularly in online communication contexts. This study investigates how Chinese job applicants and human resource (HR) staff respond to recruitment refusals both before and after interviews in online settings. Drawing on a dataset of 200 chat logs sourced from two prominent Chinese social media platforms, this research identifies three major categories of refusal response strategies, encompassing 13 distinct types. The findings reveal that both job applicants and HR staff tend to accept refusals, albeit in differing manners. Applicants employ more diverse and verbose responses compared to HR. The study highlights applicants' heightened rapport management awareness, while HR's responses suggest a focus on impression management on behalf of their companies. Furthermore, our analysis reveals that both parties utilize more strategies in post-interview refusal responses, reflecting stage-specific pragmatic awareness. This study highlights the complexities of interpersonal dynamics in recruitment communication and provides insights into how participants navigate refusal responses to manage rapport and impressions.

This paper investigates how manual know-how is manifested in instructed action in a technologized setting characterised by distributed spaces and bodies. Drawing on data from a temporary game lab where co-present participants try out virtual reality games, it analyses how an experienced VR user instructs novice participants in accomplishing the steps required to set up the game, in interacting with virtual objects and resolving troubles with tasks in the virtual environment. We show how instructions are fitted to and serve to advance the practical activity, and how they are recipient designed to teach novice users the manual and bodily techniques for interacting with the virtual game and its features.

In 218 food-related segments from 18 everyday vlogs, Korean expatriate vloggers in Hong Kong and New York frame their food activities as Korean, habitual, demonstrable, communal, and familiar. The vloggers reference Korean dishes, link food activities to nationality and family, employ hyperbolic language and repetition, adapt recipe and mukbang formats, and make comparisons. These (meta)discursively and multimodally constructed framing strategies contribute to normalizing the vloggers’ daily food engagement abroad. The study shows how “doing being ordinary” is inextricably intertwined with “doing being expatriate,” highlighting how daily food experiences are recontextualized for the subtle presentation of the expatriate self and life through everyday vlogging.

This contribution proposes a hybrid methodological framework to study stance-taking in political interviews, combining a granular grammatical analysis of question design with a discursive analysis of ‘active questioning’. Focusing on political interviews in the Flemish current-affairs programme Terzake, the study applies this analytical framework to examine journalistic stance-taking in different contexts, based on the topic of the interview and the role of the interviewee. The findings indicate that while journalistic stance-taking is standard practice across contexts, specific differences emerge at finer linguistic levels (cf. grammatical question types). The topic of the interview is found to be a more important factor in the likelihood of interviewers expressing stance than the role of the interviewee. We link this to the different intents (i.e., exploration, systematisation, or explanation) that interviews can have, which influence the dynamics of the question-answer exchange and, hence, how active a role the interviewer might take within that exchange. Finally, the study emphasises the usefulness of combining a grammatical and a discursive analysis of interviewer questions, as the specific ‘design’ of questions (i.e., their grammatical form and function) can point to subtly different ways in which interviewers position themselves vis-à-vis interviewees that may be glossed over at the discursive level of linguistic analysis.

In this article I examine the concept of ‘gentrification’ from its inception to its current varied uses and interpretations. Using the Oxford English Dictionary's third edition illustrative quotations database as a diachronic corpus of English, I employ a corpus-assisted and cognitive linguistics-inspired critical discourse analysis to trace the genealogy of the term within the broader field of related terms. By disentangling the emergence of this ideologically-laden term, the study enhances our understanding of how class-struggle discourse has evolved from the late Middle Ages to the Enlightenment and late-modernity. It is argued that a robust definition of ‘gentrification’ – which foregrounds the displacement of low-income residents – depends on historicizing the phenomenon, i.e. tracing its roots in concepts, practices and values.
