Este artigo busca apreender a fome como uma das manifestações da insegurança alimentar e nutricional, considerando essas manifestações como expressões da “questão social” e as formas de enfrentamento por parte do Estado brasileiro. Particularmente, procura analisar a fome e a (in)segurança alimentar e nutricional, a partir da dinâmica do neoliberalismo no país, sobretudo no contexto dos governos nacionais de extrema direita e da COVID-19. Para tanto, adota a pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, que se orientou pela teoria social crítica apoiada na tradição marxista. Assim, apresenta as causas dessas manifestações da “questão social”, suas principais expressões e as formas de intervenção social do Estado, considerando as particularidades dos governos nacionais que assumiram diferentes vertentes neoliberais, mas que preservaram os princípios fundamentais do neoliberalismo.

Propõe uma análise acerca dos discursos sobre gênero e sexualidade produzidos no processo de hipermilitarização brasileira. Decorre de uma investigação conduzida pelo método etnográfico que envolveu grupos de WhatsApp auto identificados como conservadores e cristãos, que apoiam diretamente o presidente Jair Bolsonaro. Analisa o papel dos estudos de gênero e sexualidade no processo de militarização e em seu recrudescimento decorrente da razão neoliberal. Na sequência, apresenta uma investigação sobre as eleições de 2018 e o governo de Jair Bolsonaro, verificando como que a propagação da noção de guerra cultural passou a ser utilizada com o intuito de conferir certa legitimidade em suas ações cada vez mais veementes em relação aos seus adversários políticos. Averigua por fim, mediante os dados etnográficos e documentais, como os estudos de gênero e sexualidade passaram a ser mobilizados nessa guerra, servindo de justificativa moral para fins políticos e econômicos. Palavras-chave: Plataformas digitais. Gênero. Sexualidade. Guerra. Representações sociais.

This study explores the challenges simultaneous interpreters face when coming across non-literal language in the source utterance, such as metaphors, metonymies, and idioms. Non-literal language adds imagery to communication but seems to pose difficulties in the interpreting process due to its figurative nature. Simultaneous interpreters must navigate cultural differences and find appropriate equivalents while remaining agile with their cognitive capabilities in order to accurately convey the non-literal meaning into the target language in real-time. Simultaneous interpreters must analyze and interpret the utterance quickly while maintaining the production flow. Keeping track of the source utterance while taking care of the images getting transferred into the target production is not an easy task, for the fact that, according to Gile’s effort model (Gile 1992), a simultaneous interpreter is already putting different required efforts in work, let alone rendering figurative items. Through this study, it appeared that non-literal items in language are not totally transferred into the target language; 95 non-literal items were extracted from 113 minutes of simultaneously interpreted UN political speeches, out of which 32% were replaced with their literal counterparts, added up with 16% being directly skipped, 9% of the items being unreplaced metonymies, and 10% of the items transferred while modified with a different image in the target production. Results in total, consist of 67% (almost two-thirds) of the items got lost or were thoroughly modified leaving only 33% (roughly one-third) of the non-literal items being transferred intact, which itself is a question raising phenomenon and evidence of problem triggering situations in the process of interpreting.

The present paper discusses the language contact in Algeria and how languages are used on a daily basis. One hundred and twenty Algerian participants of different age groups were the subjects of this study. In order to achieve the aim of this study, a mixed method was applied through a questionnaire to present the findings statistically, a group discussion that was analysed qualitatively to observe the linguistic behaviour, and a semi-structured interview to explore the attitudes of Algerians toward multilingualism was conducted. The findings showed a high degree of native language use (Algerian Arabic and Berber) in addition to frequent use of French and other languages, like English, and a low use of Modern Standard Arabic in different fields and in daily language use. Furthermore, Algerians perceive themselves as multilinguals due to their daily interaction and code-switching between more than two languages.

This paper is a report of an examination on the role that recurring bodily experience, or image schemas, play in understanding various meanings of the polysemous word see , taken from the novel Blindness by Jose Saramago. According to cognitive semantics, various patterns of recurring bodily experience, called image schemas, emerge in our perceptual understanding of actions and events in the real world. Therefore, the central assumption of the study is that each meaning of see is motivated by a complex pattern of different image schemas. Two experiments have been designed to study whether the different meanings of see can be motivated by image schemas. Experiment 1 applied a similarity test to look at people’s judgments of similarity for different meanings of see to reveal the tendencies by running an inter-rater agreement test and reporting the related observations. Experiment 2 first examined people’s intuitions about the relative importance of five image schemas for different meanings of see ; I then tried to predict the pattern of data from Experiment 1 by using the image schema profiles obtained for the different meanings of see in Experiment 2. I expected meaningful connections between image schemas and the various meanings of the polysemous word see . The data from the two experiments generally suggest significant connections between the introduced image schemas and the various meanings of the polysemous word see . Based on the findings, it can be argued that besides some conceptual operations such as metaphorization, metonymization, generalization, specification, image schematic motivation is another crucial factor of meaning extension (and hence the emergence of polysemy) deserving more scholarly attention.
