Research communities across disciplines recognize the need to diversify and decolonize knowledge. While artificial intelligence-supported large language models (LLMs) can help with access to knowledge generated in the Global North and demystify publication practices, they are still biased toward dominant norms and knowledge paradigms. LLMs lack agency, metacognition, knowledge of the local context, and understanding of how the human language works. These limitations raise doubts regarding their ability to develop the kind of rhetorical flexibility that is necessary for adapting writing to ever-changing contexts and demands. Thus, LLMs are likely to drive both language use and knowledge construction towards homogeneity and uniformity, reproducing already existing biases and structural inequalities. Since their output is based on shallow statistical associations, what these models are unable to achieve to the same extent as humans is linguistic creativity, particularly across languages, registers, and styles. This is the area where key stakeholders in academic publishing—authors, reviewers, and editors—have the upper hand, as our applied linguistics community strives to increase multilingual practices in knowledge production.
各学科的研究团体都认识到知识多样化和非殖民化的必要性。虽然人工智能支持的大型语言模型(LLMs)有助于获取全球北方地区产生的知识,并揭开出版实践的神秘面纱,但它们仍然偏向于主流规范和知识范式。LLMs 缺乏能动性、元认知、对当地环境的了解以及对人类语言运作方式的理解。这些局限性让人怀疑他们是否有能力发展出必要的修辞灵活性,使写作适应不断变化的语境和要求。因此,LLMs 很可能会使语言使用和知识构建趋于同质化和统一化,重现已有的偏见和结构性不平等。由于这些模型的输出基于浅层次的统计关联,因此无法像人类一样实现语言创造性,尤其是跨语言、跨语域和跨风格的创造性。这正是学术出版界的主要利益相关者--作者、审稿人和编辑--占上风的领域,因为我们的应用语言学界正在努力增加知识生产中的多语言实践。

This article investigated the development of narrative production skills among Mandarin-English dual language immersion (DLI) students. A total of 60 children in first (N = 20), third (N = 21), and fifth-sixth (N = 19) grades generated oral narratives from wordless picture books in Mandarin and English. We examined variability in children’s macrostructure and microstructure production by language and grade level. We also examined within-language associations and cross-language transfer in narrative skills. Children in higher grades incorporated more macrostructure and microstructure elements in their narratives than children in lower grades. Within each language, microstructure skills were correlated with macrostructure skills. Evidence for development of shared skills across languages and language-specific patterns of narrative skills were also identified. Results contribute to the growing body of evidence for facilitative transfer in immersion contexts and highlight the importance of measuring outcomes in both the societal and the partner language.
本文调查了普通话和英语双语沉浸(DLI)学生的叙事能力发展情况。共有 60 名一年级(20 人)、三年级(21 人)和五六年级(19 人)的儿童根据普通话和英语的无字图画书创作了口头叙事。我们研究了不同语言和年级的儿童在宏观结构和微观结构制作方面的差异。我们还考察了叙事技能的语言内关联和跨语言迁移。与低年级儿童相比,高年级儿童在叙事中融入了更多的宏观结构和微观结构元素。在每种语言中,微观结构技能都与宏观结构技能相关。此外,还发现了不同语言之间共同技能发展的证据以及叙事技能的特定语言模式。研究结果为越来越多的证据证明浸入式环境中的促进性迁移做出了贡献,并强调了衡量社会语言和伙伴语言成果的重要性。

Authorial voice is often identified as a key trait of successful writing in English rhetoric and composition, leading to research on its construction, development, and assessment in various types of written texts. Using Hyland’s (2008) interactional metadiscourse framework, existing studies have also examined the use of particular voice-related element(s) across different writer groups. Few, however, have examined how L2 writers may construct voice similarly or differently in their L1 and L2 writing. The present study therefore examined voice strength and voicing strategies in L1-Chinese and L2-English essays composed by the same group of Chinese EFL writers. Paired samples t-test showed, surprisingly, that writers’ L2-English voice was significantly stronger than their L1-Chinese voice, whereas subsequent text analysis of L1 and L2 writing samples further revealed differing linguistic, rhetorical, and discoursal resources employed by writers for voice construction when writing in two different language systems. Such findings extend Hyland’s (2008) interactional metadiscourse framework on voice construction and offer important implications for L2 writing instruction and assessment.
在英语修辞与写作中,作者的声音往往被认为是成功写作的一个关键特征,从而引发了对各种类型书面文本中作者声音的构建、发展和评估的研究。利用 Hyland(2008 年)的互动元话语框架,现有研究还考察了不同作家群体使用特定语音相关元素的情况。然而,很少有研究探讨 L2 作者在 L1 和 L2 写作中如何以相似或不同的方式构建语音。因此,本研究考察了同一组中国 EFL 作家在 L1-Chinese 和 L2-English 作文中的语音强度和语音策略。令人惊讶的是,配对样本t检验显示,写作者的L2-英语语音明显强于L1-汉语语音,而随后对L1和L2写作样本的文本分析进一步揭示了写作者在两种不同语言系统中写作时所使用的不同的语言、修辞和话语资源。这些发现扩展了Hyland(2008)关于语音建构的互动元话语框架,并为L2写作教学和评估提供了重要启示。

Neoliberal demands in higher education (HE) amplified by the affordances of digitalisation have led to the emergence of various academic branding practices, one of which is the use of email signatures for identity work and self-promotion. Examining a corpus of 200 email signatures created by applied linguists between 2011 and 2020, this study identifies core and optional moves and how the moves orient to proximity (scholarly communities) and positioning (reputational work). The quantitative analysis of the dataset supported by semi-structured interviews with a group of academics shows that while core moves provide basic identity information, optional moves are used strategically for positioning. A comparison by career stage reveals that mid-career academics utilize more positioning than early-career and established academics. The positioning moves in the second half of the decade draw more on academic achievements, multimodality, and digital presence. The study contributes to an enhanced understanding of how a small and originally inconspicuous genre becomes a space for academic branding and evaluates this development against the increasingly competitive and precarious conditions of the neoliberal HE sector.
高等教育(HE)中的新自由主义需求被数字化的能力所放大,导致了各种学术品牌实践的出现,其中之一就是使用电子邮件签名进行身份工作和自我宣传。本研究考察了应用语言学家在 2011 年至 2020 年间创建的 200 个电子邮件签名语料库,确定了核心和可选动作,以及这些动作如何导向接近性(学术社区)和定位(声誉工作)。通过对数据集进行定量分析,并辅以对一组学者进行的半结构式访谈,可以看出核心动作提供了基本的身份信息,而可选动作则被战略性地用于定位。按职业生涯阶段进行的比较显示,职业生涯中期的学者比职业生涯早期和成熟的学者使用更多的定位动作。职业生涯后半期的定位动作更多地借鉴了学术成就、多模态和数字化存在。这项研究有助于加深对一个原本不起眼的小流派如何成为学术品牌空间的理解,并在新自由主义高等教育领域日益激烈的竞争和岌岌可危的条件下对这一发展进行评估。

Towards Clarification of the Second Language Learner Engagement Construct: Taking Stock of its Conceptual Overlap and Hierarchical Structure 厘清第二语言学习者的参与结构:评估其概念重叠和层次结构

L2 learner engagement is an emerging but critical construct in the field of psychology of language learning and teaching. However, research on L2 learner engagement has suffered from the inconsistent operationalization of the multidimensional structure of the construct and the conceptual overlap among its different components, making research synthesis and comparison across studies and contexts challenging. This study tested the utility of the bi-factor exploratory structural equation modelling framework (B-ESEM)—an overarching psychometric framework that can address the two critical concerns associated with the operationalization and measurement of L2 learner engagement. Data were collected from 413 Vietnamese EFL students. Through two stages of rigorous and strategic data analysis, the results suggested that participants’ responses to the L2 learner engagement scale could be best represented by a B-ESEM model that simultaneously assessed the global L2 engagement factor along with the specific components of behavioural, cognitive, affective, and social engagement while, at the same time, controlling for the cross-loadings of items onto non-target factors. Results of the study were discussed from both psychometric and substantive perspectives and implications were provided to capitalize on the utility of the B-ESEM approach in the assessment of L2 learner engagement.
在语言学习和教学心理学领域,L2 学习者的参与是一个新兴但又至关重要的概念。然而,关于 L2 学习者参与度的研究一直受制于对该建构的多维结构及其不同组成部分之间的概念重叠的不一致操作,这使得不同研究和背景下的研究综合和比较具有挑战性。本研究测试了双因素探索性结构方程建模框架(B-ESEM)的实用性--这是一个总体心理测量框架,可以解决与语言学习者参与的操作化和测量相关的两个关键问题。数据收集自 413 名越南 EFL 学生。通过两个阶段严格而有策略的数据分析,结果表明,参与者对 L2 学习者参与量表的反应可以通过 B-ESEM 模型得到最好的体现,该模型可以同时评估 L2 参与的总体因素以及行为、认知、情感和社会参与的具体组成部分,同时还可以控制项目在非目标因素上的交叉负荷。研究结果从心理测量和实质角度进行了讨论,并提出了在评估 L2 学习者参与度时利用 B-ESEM 方法的启示。

This paper explores the use of mobile technologies in facilitating offline encounters, through a post-digital lens which posits the digital not as new or disruptive but as a ubiquitous and accepted part of everyday social connectivities. In the paper, we explore ways in which migrants draw on jointly assembled semiotic repertoires, affordances, and constraints of the digital space, as well as cultural knowledge and spatial relating, to establish common ground and an interpretative framework for engaging in ensuing offline encounters. Drawing on an interactional analysis of data from a large linguistic ethnographic project, we focus on how a group of Polish immigrants who live in different parts of London bring their offline contexts and socially or culturally motivated expectations into their interactions to facilitate alignment in interactional frames in the context of limited familiarity with each other. Overall, our analysis points to the role of group messaging in creating a digital prospection space in which a joint frame of reference can be interactively constructed in anticipation of an offline encounter.
本文从后数字时代的视角,探讨了移动技术在促进线下接触中的应用,后数字时代认为数字技术不是新技术或颠覆性技术,而是日常社会联系中无处不在且被接受的一部分。在本文中,我们探讨了移民如何利用共同组装的数字空间的符号组合、承受能力和限制,以及文化知识和空间关系,来建立共同点和解释框架,以参与随后的线下接触。通过对一个大型语言人种学项目中的数据进行交互分析,我们重点研究了一群居住在伦敦不同地区的波兰移民如何将他们的离线语境和社会或文化期望带入他们的交互中,从而在彼此熟悉程度有限的情况下促进交互框架的一致性。总之,我们的分析指出了群组信息在创建数字前景空间中的作用,在这个空间中,可以通过互动构建共同的参照框架,以迎接线下相遇。

English in Specialized Communication and its Impact on Spanish Medical Lexicon 专业交流中的英语及其对西班牙语医学词典的影响

The use of English-written publications (articles, books, book chapters, etc.) in university Medicine classes, in Spanish-speaking settings, results in a direct influence on lexical units in written text and oral discourse, particularly, with respect to prototypical terminological units. The extent of said influence has not been evaluated until now in the Colombian Spanish-speaking university context, which is, like in most countries in the world, a context that responds to the dynamics of the Internationalisation of Higher Education. As we will see in the following empirical study and its results, the use of English-written materials in university Medicine courses in Colombia has an impact on the presence of Terminological Anglicisms in both written texts and oral discourse in Spanish. And this, not surprisingly, does not promote the creation of new native Spanish vocabulary, on the contrary, it is detrimental to the specialized communicative suitability of the local language.
在西班牙语环境下的大学医学课堂上使用英文出版物(文章、书籍、书籍章节等)会对书面文本和口头话语中的词汇单位产生直接影响,尤其是在原型术语单位方面。与世界上大多数国家一样,哥伦比亚的西班牙语大学也在积极响应高等教育的国际化进程。正如我们在下面的实证研究及其结果中所看到的,在哥伦比亚的大学医学课程中使用英语书面材料,对西班牙语书面文本和口头话语中术语英化的出现都有影响。毫不奇怪,这并没有促进新的西班牙语母语词汇的产生,相反,这不利于当地语言的专业交际适用性。

Inappropriate Identities: Racialized Language Ideologies and Sociolinguistic Competence in a Study Abroad Context 不恰当的身份:留学背景下的种族语言意识形态与社会语言能力

This article examines cases where two study abroad students—Rita and Jack—problematized the normative use of specific dialectal variants by local native speakers at the end of their Spanish immersion program in Peru. Specifically, it explores what these cases reveal about second language learners’ sociolinguistic competence in a study abroad context involving their knowledge of native speaker norms and the contextual appropriateness of target language variation. An analysis of ethnographic data suggests that Rita and Jack interpreted the appropriate use of sociolinguistic variation from the local variety of Andean Spanish by drawing on prevalent racialized language ideologies in the host community that link non-standard variants to an indigenous identity imagined as incompetent in Spanish. These findings validate a need for alternative analytic frameworks that conceptualize second language learners’ development of sociolinguistic competence in terms of language ideologies rather than objective sets of normative native speaker practices. This study advances calls to develop L2 learners’ critical language awareness through curricular innovation and critical pedagogies in study abroad programs.
本文研究了两名留学学生--丽塔(Rita)和杰克(Jack)--在秘鲁的西班牙语浸入式课程结束时,对当地母语使用者规范使用特定方言变体的问题所产生的疑问。具体来说,该研究探讨了这些案例揭示了第二语言学习者在海外学习环境中的社会语言能力,包括他们对母语使用者规范的了解以及目标语言变体在语境中的适当性。对人种学数据的分析表明,丽塔和杰克通过借鉴东道主社区盛行的种族语言意识形态,将非标准变体与被想象为西班牙语不称职的土著身份联系起来,从而解释了如何恰当使用当地安第斯西班牙语的社会语言变体。这些研究结果证明,有必要建立替代性分析框架,从语言意识形态的角度,而不是从客观的规范性母语使用者实践的角度,来构思第二语言学习者的社会语言能力发展。本研究呼吁通过留学项目中的课程创新和批判性教学法来培养第二语言学习者的批判性语言意识。

Specifically, it explores what these cases reveal about second language learners’ sociolinguistic competence in a study abroad context involving their knowledge of native speaker norms and the contextual appropriateness of target language variation. An analysis of ethnographic data suggests that Rita and Jack interpreted the appropriate use of sociolinguistic variation from the local variety of Andean Spanish by drawing on prevalent racialized language ideologies in the host community that link non-standard variants to an indigenous identity imagined as incompetent in Spanish. These findings validate a need for alternative analytic frameworks that conceptualize second language learners’ development of sociolinguistic competence in terms of language ideologies rather than objective sets of normative native speaker practices.

Drawing on recent scholarship integrating usage-based linguistics (UBL) and conversation analysis (CA) in the investigation of second language development, this paper reports on a microanalysis tracing one adult learner’s recurring, increasingly frequent, and diverse use of the multiword expression det er sant (it/that is true) (DES) in L2 Norwegian interactions over a time span of four months. While the use of DES did not undergo syntactic changes, the analysis revealed that the functions of the expression diversified as DES became more frequent in use. Initially functioning primarily as a means of expressing agreement, DES was increasingly used to preface disagreement and indicate the closing of self-initiated repair sequences. This functional diversification was accompanied by increasing morphophonological reduction indicating an ongoing process of routinization. We argue that these changes, also when non-linear and not complying with the target norm, allowed the learner to participate more actively in managing the flow of talk. The study provides insight into how interaction shapes L2 development and the role of education in providing access to situations that foster increased membership in the speech community.
本文借鉴了最近在研究第二语言发展过程中将基于用法的语言学(UBL)和会话分析(CA)结合起来的学术成果,报告了一项微观分析,追踪了一名成年学习者在四个月的时间跨度内,在挪威语第二语言的互动中反复、日益频繁和多样化地使用多词表达det er sant(它/那是真的)(DES)的情况。虽然DES的使用没有发生句法上的变化,但分析表明,随着DES使用频率的增加,其功能也变得多样化。DES 最初主要用于表达同意,后来越来越多地用于表示不同意的前奏和表示自我修复序列的结束。这种功能上的多样化伴随着形态上的日益减少,表明了一个持续的常规化过程。我们认为,这些变化,即使是在非线性和不符合目标规范的情况下,也能让学习者更积极地参与管理谈话流程。这项研究深入探讨了互动如何影响 L2 的发展,以及教育在提供机会、促进增加语言社区成员方面所起的作用。
