Multilingualism and Philosophy
Multilingualism is a specifically human feature that distinguishes our species from others. As such, it presents interest in general philosophy within the issue of “human nature” and in terms of personal identity, including “the persistence question.” Today multilingualism has acquired global importance and is inherent to most human practices be it education, business, or industry. Therefore, the philosophy of multilingualism (in addition to the …
Fishman, Joshua a.
Joshua Aaron Fishman (b.July 18, 1926–d. March 1, 2015) is one of the most influential figures in American and world sociolinguistics of the second half of the 20th and of the 21st century. He is the founder of the sociology of language as a separate field of research. As one of the founding figures of sociolinguistics, he has made a substantial contribution as a thinker, editor, and theorist. He influenced several main fields of inquiry: languag…
Dominant Language Constellations
Dominant Language Constellation (DLC) is a theoretical perspective relevant to understanding current multilingualism. The DLC approach is based on an understanding of contemporary language practices. Today language use is typically implemented through the cluster of most expedient languages for an individual or a community, functioning as an entire unit, enabling them to meet all their needs in a multilingual environment. This set of languages, t…
Material Culture in Multilingualism
Traditionally, applied linguistics focused almost entirely on transient and non‐tangible language subjects, such as vocabulary acquisition, skills transfer, and code‐switching. Later, more socially oriented investigations of communities, family, and school settings studied language learners in terms of their linguistic and ethnic background, life trajectories, language attitudes, and motivation. The fascinating world of material culture, things, …

Teaching English in multilingual Israel: Who teaches whom and how. A review of recent research 2014–2020
This article presents research on teaching English in Israel, a vibrant multilingual country, in the period between 2014 and 2020. After a brief introduction to the current approach to English language teaching around the world, it outlines the studies investigating: (a) learners of English, (b) English teachers, and (c) methods that are used in the country for teaching English. We explore how various student populations, Arabs, Bedouins, Circass…
Dominant Language Constellations: Towards online computer-assisted modelling
In today’s globalised world, a single named language such as English, Norwegian or Spanish, no matter how ‘big’ it is, rarely satisfies all the needs of communication, cooperation, education or any other area of human life. Neither is the entire language repertoire plausible for everyday use, simply because it is impossible to use too many languages daily. Instead, people normally use a certain group of their vehicle languages, which is known as …

Dominant Language Constellations: A New Perspective on Multilingualism
Essential Topics in Applied Linguistics and Multilingualism: Studies in Honor of David Singleton
Methodology in Bi- and Multilingual Studies: From simplification to complexity
Research methodology is determined by theoretical approaches. This article discusses methods of multilingualism research in connection with theoretical developments in linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, and education. Taking a brief glance at the past, the article starts with a discussion of an issue underlying the choice of research methodology: the distinction between bilingualism and multilingualism. This is followed by an accou…
Current Multilingualism: A New Linguistic Dispensation
Multilingualism and Philosophy
It might have been imagined that a philosophy of multilingualism could draw copiously on the long‐established concepts and procedures of the philosophy of language.
Multilingualism
This book is an authoritative account of multilingualism in the present era, a phenomenon affecting a vast number of communities, thousands of languages and millions of language users. The book’s focus is specifically on the knowledge and use of multiple languages, but its treatment of the topic is very wide-ranging. It deals with both bilingualism and polyglottism, at the level of the individual speaker as well as at the societal level. The volu…
The material culture of multilingualism: Moving Beyond the Linguistic Landscape
Not all the constituents of societal or individual multilingualism (speaker, language, context and environment) have been researched equally to date. Multilingualism studies up to this juncture have theorised environment mostly as milieu, conceptualised usually in terms of people, i.e. community, family, school populations. Heretofore, the material culture of multilingualism has remained largely unresearched. This is surprising, since the environ…

Research in English language teaching and learning in Israel (2004–2009)
The goal of this article is to make research on English language teaching and learning published locally in Israel more widely available. Given that so many Israeli researchers are internationally trained and maintain wide connections, it necessarily omits much important work that appears in European and US journals. It focuses on shorter studies, commonly unfunded, that university teachers in EFL programs or in teacher training programs at small…
Affordances and the diversity of multilingualism
With the advent of globalization and the consequent and concomitant establishment of a new linguistic dispensation, the diversity of multilingualism has increased exponentially. Unsurprisingly, such diversity has attracted the closest attention of researchers, as well as those involved in managing the practical ramifications of multilingualism, particularly, perhaps, in regard to issues relating to the ethnic diversity of multilingual populations…

Multilingualism as a New Linguistic Dispensation
This paper aims to show that the development of multilingualism in the world has reached a point where, in terms of scale and significance, it is comparable with and assimilable to politico-economic aspects of globalisation, global mobility and ‘postmodern’ modes of thinking. The paper situates multilingualism in its relationship with the most dramatic social changes currently occurring in the world, notably the transformation of the experience o…

Multilinguality and emotions: Emotional experiences and language attitudes of trilingual immigrant students in Israel
This study was conducted with young Russian-speaking immigrant adults in Israel who are in the process of becoming trilingual in Russian, Hebrew, and English. The focus of the study is on these trilinguals’ emotional experiences and attitudes with regard to a) themselves as speakers and learners; b) the process of language learning, and c) each of the languages in question. The findings suggest that the students display positive attitudes towards…
Language Interference and Language Learning Techniques Transfer in L2 and L3 Immersion Programmes
This paper examines the relationships between L1, L2 and L3 in immersion programmes for Russian-speaking students in Israel. The context of the immersion programmes in multilingual setting is discussed. Two parallel and similar immersion programmes, which were carried out for the same population, but with different target languages (L2 Hebrew and L3 English) are described. Special attention is given to the question as to which language, Hebrew or…
Multilingual Students' Awareness of their Language Teacher's Other Languages
This paper analyses the opinions, awareness and perceptions of trilingual or multilingual students, regarding their language teacher. Findings of a comparative study carried out in two different cultural contexts, Ireland and Israel, are discussed, where participants (435 in total) included Russian-speaking students in Israel studying English or Hebrew as their third or fourth language and English-speaking students in Ireland studying French, Ger…

Theoretical Perspectives of Trilingual Education
The aim of this paper is to discuss different aspects of trilingualism and multilingualism as related to sociolinguistics. The paper highlights the importance of multilingualism in modern society and the interdisciplinarity of its study as related to sociolinguistics, applied linguistics, and psycholinguistics. The paper, which adopts a sociolinguistic perspective, goes on to distinguish different chronological stages in the study of language use…
L’anglais et les cultures: Carrefour ou frontière
L’anglais semble à présent avoir atteint un point de non-retour dans son expansion mondiale accélérée, rivalisant avec les langues nationales dans des domaines aussi variés que la musique populaire, les transports, internet, le secteur bancaire, le cinéma et la télévision, la science et le sport (...) L’engagement dans l’intégration européenne nécessite une langue commune : c’est l’anglais. Le défi, pour l’Europe, consiste à l’utiliser comme inst…
Éléments d’évolution et de permanence de l’anglais dans le contexte plurilingue israélien
Cet article traite des défis auxquels se trouvent confrontés les résidents dans l’état plurilingue d’Israël quant au recours ou non à l’anglais ainsi que du statut de facto de cette langue en tant qu’élément constitutif du répertoire des individus multilingues.Prenant comme base la théorie des affordances de Gibson, il est révélateur de comprendre comment le fait d’immigrer en Israël depuis un autre pays, également multilingue, notamment des pays…
