Our Father Tongue
Linguistic Theory and the Real World1
Traditionally, applied linguists have looked to theoretical linguistics for help, and not vice versa, and they haven't found much enlightenment. Recent work by theoretical linguists on the interaction between language use and real world phenomena may begin to change this situation. Language teachers have realized that some aspects of language are harder to teach than others: the use of particles like "well," hedges like "sort of," and "I guess," …

Language and woman's place
Our use of language embodies attitudes as well as referential meanings. 'Woman's language' has as foundation the attitude that women are marginal to the serious concerns of life, which are pre-empted by men. The marginality and powerlessness of women is reflected in both the ways women are expected to speak, and the ways in which women are spoken of. In appropriate women's speech, strong expression of feeling is avoided, expression of uncertainty…
Language in Context
Traditional transformational grammar attempts to define the conditions on the applicability of grammatical rules on the basis of superficial syntactic environment alone. This paper discusses a number of examples in several languages that show that such a goal is unattainable—that, in order to predict correctly the applicability of many rules, one must be able to refer to assumptions about the social context of an utterance, as well as to other im…
Tense and Its Relation to Participants
Numerous explanations have been put forth for the uses and derivations of tenses. This paper attempts to show that none of these explanations is satisfactory, since they cannot account for many ways in which tenses are used in English and other languages. While this paper does not try to present an adequate theory, it gives evidence that such a theory, at the very least, must be able to incorporate in its underlying structures concepts such as th…
Transformational Grammar and Language Teaching1
There are two major theories of language learning: one, based on behavioral psychology, emphasizes pattern-practice and memorization; the other, the rationalist approach, attempts to give students the reasons for grammatical phenomena, relating facts about the second language to facts about the student's native language. Of these, the first has been much used recently, both in structuralist texts and those that are supposedly "transformational". …
Some Reasons Why There Can't Be Any Some-Any Rule
This paper presents evidence that semantic notions—such as presupposition, speaker’s and hearer’s beliefs about the world, and previous discourse—must be taken into account in a complete treatment of the distribution of some and any in conditional, negative, and interrogative sentences. Syntactic conditions alone will not account for the fact that, in certain sentence types, the two forms occur with different meanings
