Broadening undergraduate university admission pathways: Student achievement success at course completion
The global demand for higher education has resulted in government imperatives and policies aimed to increase student participation from under-represented groups, such as those who reside outside urban areas and from low socio-economic backgrounds. In Australia, the recent Universities Accord report (2024) signals achieving a larger, fairer higher education system with broadening of access. Thus, it is timely to examine the mechanisms that may hav…
Meeting standards: (Re)colonial and subversive potential of AI modification
AI potential to recolonise language practices by reproducing existing marginalisations in novel ways has already instilled fears of a ‘contemporary dystopia’ ( Miras et al., 2022 ) — a space of cultural and linguistic erasure. Accents represent a distinctive aspect of language practice associated with one’s sociocultural, and ethno-racial characteristics. They account for one’s social identity, status, and proficiency ( De Klerk & Bosch, 1995 ). …
The mundanity of translanguaging and Aboriginal identity in Australia
Drawing on ethnographic interview analysis of Aboriginal participants in Australia, this study seeks to expand the critical discussions in Applied Linguistics by understanding the concept of translanguaging in relation to its “mundanity” (or ordinariness). Our data shows that rather than perceiving translanguaging as extraordinary, for Aboriginal speakers it is more likely to be considered normal, unremarkable, mundane, and as a long-existing phe…
(C)overt linguistic racism: Eastern-European background immigrant women in the Australian workplace
Linguistic racism explores the varied ideologies that may generate and endorse monolingual, native, and normative language practices, while reinforcing the discrimination and injustice directed towards language users whose language and communicative repertoires are not necessarily perceived as standard and normal. This article, thus, investigates linguistic racism, as a form of existing, but newly defined, racism against unconventional ethnic lan…
Translingual identity: Perpetual foreigner stereotype of the Eastern-European immigrants in Australia
Translingual identity, as a part of the trans-paradigm, refers to linguistic, sociocultural, ethno-racial, and religious practices, which are negotiable, fluid, and in motion, transcending mainstream boundaries. This paper expands the translingual literature from the perspective of sociolinguistic disparities of culturally and linguistically diverse Eastern-European immigrant women in Australia, as they become victims of the perpetual foreigner s…

The link between linguistic subordination and linguistic inferiority complexes: English as a second language migrants in Australia

We address the following research questions: (a) To what extent and how do ESL migrants in Australia suffer from linguistic subordination? (b) To what extent and how is this linguistic subordination linked to linguisti…

The impact of social media in the sociolinguistic practices of the peripheral post-socialist contexts
This article examines the impact of social media on the linguistic and communicative practices in post-socialist countries, such as Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, and Mongolia – the contexts very much under-represented in the discussion of translingualism. Relocalisation of social media-based linguistic resources in the languages used in these peripheral countries represents linguistically innovative practice, which entails orthographic, morphos…
Monglish in post‐communist Mongolia
This article examines the emerging language practice in post‐communist Mongolia that we call ‘new Monglish’ – complex linguistic processes in which English may be deeply absorbed and integrated into the Mongolian language. The original forms of English have transformed as the Mongolian social media users manipulate English to function in the space of relocalisation – the linguistic process which is re‐adapted to the local context to yield new loc…
