Alexander Agricola and intuitive syllable deployment
Perceived wisdom is that ‘few of Agricola's compositions are word-orientated’, while the scribes that transmit his music align notes and words in ways that cannot necessarily be taken at face value. Both observations are probably true, though not in the perjorative way we may be inclined to assume. A common complaint of present-day editors is that there seem to be no consciously formulated sets of rules from Agricola's time regarding how syllable…
Aave Features in the lyrics of Tupac Shakur
Tupac Shakur was an artist who worked in a range of verbal media and was fluent in registers tailored to communicating with vastly different audiences. Tupac was an amateur poet and platinum-selling rapper when he died; however, his success was most visible in his work as a rapper in which he used African American Vernacular English (AAVE) linguistic features copiously. This paper will examine texts of Tupac's transcribed rap lyrics and interview…

Perspectives on Race and Culture in Japanese Society
This text provides, in English, up-to-date directions and findings on Japan's history, exploring Japanese nationalism and its expression not only in serious anthropological studies but in the popular media.

The speech behaviors of these respondents with respect to variants of six linguistic variables (each with a black English [BE] and a colloquial Standard English variant) are quanti…

T HREE RELATED TYPES OF DISCOURSE used by black speakers in Guyana are known as suurin [surin], koocharin [kocarin], and grannin [granin]. These behaviors are similar to speech practices used by blacks in the United States, and they are similar to each other in that the illocutionary point of the utterances of the main speaker is to get the auditor(s) to do something of benefit to the speaker. The illocutionary intention of suurers and koocharers…

Code selection and shifting in Guyana
Creolists have been showing that the use of codes in Creole societies is linguistically motivated, but these scholars have neglected the social principles informing the use of language varieties in these societies. This paper takes the position that the use of Creole and English varieties in Guyana is socially motivated. The typical Guyanese speaker uses linguistic items which are socially appropriate or mandated in the social context or cultural…
