A Typology of the Prestige Language
Henry KahaneARTICLELanguage1986Cited by: 9
The recurrent features of a ‘prestige language’ are broadly reviewed. The prevailing socio-political constellation provides motivations for its rise, the ways of acquiring it, the domains it transmits, and the causes of its decline. The process of its nativization can be analysed synchronically in terms of creolization, and diachronically in terms of stratigraphy. The linking of a native language to the dominant culture results in either substrat…

Decline and Survival of Western Prestige Languages
Henry, Henry Kahane et al.ARTICLELanguage1979Cited by: 9
Six case histories establish a typology of the rise, recession, and hidden survival of Western prestige languages: Greek in Rome, Latin in Byzantium, Anglo-Norman/Anglo-French, Medieval Latin, Alamode in Germany, and Puristic in modern Greece. A pattern evolves: the diglossic system of higher and lower levels, which reflects a class society, is strangled by the low level, which expands under popular pressures. The elite language declines but it d…
Virtues and Vices in the American Language: A History of Attitudes
Henry Kahane, Renée KahaneARTICLETESOL Quarterly1977
The two centuries of America's national existence can be viewed from many angles. Our view is that of the sociolinguist; and we shall present a metalinguistic report, i.e., not a sketch of the development of the language itself as a mirror of societal development, but a description of the changing attitudes, from the early days of the Republic to the present, of linguists and linguistically oriented intellectuals toward the language level used or…

In spatial terms, they illustrate phenomena of acculturation, of borrowing and wandering; in chronological terms, they often preserve old material and reveal interesting patterns of innovation; in semantic terms, they perpetuate varied concepts of time, location, or orientation.

The Position of the Actor Expression in Colloquial Mexican Spanish
Henry Kahane, Renée KahaneARTICLELanguage1950Cited by: 1
The present study is an attempt to describe, in terms of form, the position of the actor expression in the colloquial Spanish of present-day Mexico. Regional, social, and chronological differences are disregarded, provided the material observed belongs, in the writers' opinion, to the colloquial form of speech. Procedure. The material was collected during a stay in Mexico, from June 1948 to February 1949.1 We gathered literary examples from nine …

Two Romance Etymologies
Henry Kahane, Renée KahaneARTICLELanguage1944
Since Muratori, there have been several attempts to explain etymologically Ital. pozzánghera ‘mud-puddle’. The following ones stand out: 1. Caix identifies pozzánghera with Emilian pociacra and traces both back to Lat. * puteacula. 2. Meyer-Lübke considers it a derivative from puteus , but leaves it with the remark: ‘mit unerklärtem Ausgang’. 3. Gamillscheg sees the etymon in Langob. putz-angar ‘versumpfter Platz’, supporting his theory by geogra…
