Bilingual Child-Language Acquisition along the United States—Mexico Border: The El Paso—Ciudad Juárez—Las Cruces Triangle
The multilingual-multicultural Southwest provides a ready laboratory for the study of bilingual child-language ontogeny. The language situation along the United States-Mexican border, exemplified by the El Paso, Texas, Las Cruces, New Mexico, and Ciudad Juárez (Chihuahua), Mexico triangle is an apt case in point. Language acquisition is viewed in the light of the multiple model-sources to which children of varying socioeconomic status are exposed…
Calendar of Meetings
The committee met to review the activities of the Pan American Health Organization in the field of health and population dynamics. An analysis was made of programs of research in reproduction, contraception, and demography, efforts in evaluation, service programs, operational research, and education and training. The committee established that the PAHO should give priority to health programs related to population dynamics. The director appointed …
Once More: Programmed Instruction in the Language Field: The State of the Art1
An assessment is made here of the status of programmed instruction in the foreign language field. From available evidence, neither unbridled optimism nor gloomy pessimism is justified. On the contrary, the potential of the approach has barely been touched, and examples of successful development and use of programmed materials ought to encourage further efforts and act as an antidote to extremist views

The Teaching of Modern Foreign Languages in the Soviet Union
Africa Seeks a Common Language
A Few years ago an editor was beaten in Uganda for using the “wrong” forms of the Luganda tongue, which somewhat earlier had been “standardized.” This incident reflects the emotionalism surrounding language issues in the emergent African countries, so desperately seeking a common medium for internal and external communication
Patterns of Language Planning in the New States
The proliferation of new sovereign states, well over sixty since World War II, has created language problems on a scale unknown in the past. In many of the emergent lands there is a great diversity of tongues, with none of them predominant. Ethnic and tribal rivalries quite often are so acute that the choice of any one language over the others would evoke stubborn opposition and fan already existing resentments. For example, Nigeria with some two…
Alternative Analyses of the Bulgarian Nonsyllabic Phonemes
The question of the nonuniqueness of phonemic solutions, first raised by Chao in 1934, remains one of the most intriguing problems of structural linguistics. It is therefore of interest to note that the attempts of various American and European linguists to arrive at a structural analysis of the nonsyllabic phonemes of present-day standard Bulgarian have resulted in three significantly different descriptions of the system in question. The phonemi…

Facts, Figures, and Opinions on the Present Status of Portuguese
Many who attended the 1949 Modern Language Association meeting at Stanford University were impressed by the frequent expressions of skepticism regarding the present and future of Portuguese studies in the United States. It is therefore hoped that some of the findings in the present study will be of interest and value. Portuguese, like Russian, is one of the newest comers to the field of foreign-language teaching. The first known college instructo…
The Archaic and the Modern in the Spanish of New Mexico
In the field of dialectology, New Mexican Spanish has for some years attracted the attention of scholars and linguists.* Representing to a large extent the language of the sixteenth-century conquistadores, it has developed under peculiar conditions, isolated from both Spain and Mexico, on one hand, and since 1846 subject to strong North American influence, on the other. The feature which has especially interested philologists is the strongly arch…
Desiderata in Eighteenth-Century Spanish Scholarship
A Bird’s-Eye View of Brazilian-Portuguese Studies in the United States
A NEW AND VIGOROUS INTEREST exists today in United States schools in the study of Portuguese and of Brazil. The accent has shifted both literally and figuratively. Until recent years Portuguese was studied largely by students of philology for the purpose of comparing it with other Romance languages. At present the language is approached by students as a key to the understanding of Brazil and its culture. Peninsular Portuguese has given way in the…
