Private Tutoring in English for Secondary School Students in Bangladesh
Private tutoring in English (PT‐E), a special and important subclass of private tutoring (PT), is a common phenomenon in ESL/EFL education in many parts of the world. Nevertheless, it has received little attention in TESOL, applied linguistics, or language education research. This article investigates the nature and practice of PT‐E in a disadvantaged rural area of Bangladesh, a context where the circumstances of ESL/EFL education give it a parti…

The Repositioning of Language Centres
‘Centres’ are surrounded by space, geography, people and activities to which they relate. A centre has two primary orientations. A centripetal centre gathers material to itself. The movement is from the periphery and the surrounding material into the centre. A conventional library is a prototypical example of a centripetal centre. People come together in the library’s location to use and consult material which has been collected from the surround…
Abstand, Ausbau, Creativity and Ludicity in Australian English
The social history of a language or variety, and its emergence, consolidation and stabiliza tion, allow us to combine the formal data of the language (principally its sound structure, grammar and lexis) with the external conditions in which they have evolved. The advance of Australian English in terms of its differentiation (Kloss's abstand) and elaboration of roles (Kloss's ausbau) pose problems of chronology, periodization, description and expl…
Language choice among the Foochows in Sarawak, Malaysia
This paper investigates the factors affecting the language choices of the Chinese Foochows of Sarawak, focusing in particular on how the use of the Foochow dialect vis-a`-vis English and other languages might potentially result in a shift in language allegiance away from Foochow. In the context of Sarawak, the Foochows are a substantial, cohesive and homogeneous Chinese ethnic group with a distinctive language and ethnic identity. One would predi…
Code-switching in Bangladesh
A survey of hybridization in proper names and commercial signs. CODE-SWITCHING is commonly seen as more typical of the spoken language. But there are some areas of language use, including business names (e.g. restaurants), where foreign proper names, common nouns and sometimes whole phrases are imported into the written language too. These constitute a more stable variety of code-switching than the spontaneous and more unpredictable code-switchin…
Response of glutamine metabolism to glutamine-supplemented parenteral nutrition
In view of the enhanced glutamine requirements in response to trauma and disease by tissues such as those of the gut, the immune system, and the liver, increased glutamine availability during glutamine-enriched TPN may be beneficial preoperatively in patients with gastrointestinal disease.
Electronic Networking
In Physical terms, the Net—a term used generically—is a global system of computer linked by optical cable, telephone connections, microwave, and satellites. It comprises a number of individual networks, from LANs (Local Area Networks in individual institutions) to the largest, the Internet. (See Appendix Glossary for terminology explanations.) In January 1993, the Matrix News estimated that the Net comprised 2,152,000 host computers and 18,150,00…

Deformed “plural's” in English
Heroism and ‘Glory’
MOST societies commemorate heroes. There would seem to be, in fact, a rhythm in human history and human society which brings into prominence the element we call heroic-the need for depassemen!, for stretching human nature to its utmost physical and moral capabilities, the need for transcending humdrum reality by flights into the poetic or the legendary, or by investing the known and human with qualities properly belonging to the domain of the god…
Joseph D’arbaud, Poet of the Camargue
1974 marks the centenary of the birth of an important Proven~al author, Joseph D'Arbaud, who not only wrote in Proven9al but himself 'translated' his own work into Modem French (which he also spoke and wrote as a native tongue). Like Mistral, who wrote a foreword in 1913 to D'Arbaud's volume of verse Le Laurier d'Arles, D'Arbaud lived and wrote all his life in terms of Proven~al values: he was a 'Majoral' of the Felibrige, son of a well-known Pro…

The deep structure of adjectives in noun phrases
The syntax of adjectives is perhaps one of the less controversial issues in contemporary transformational generative grammar. Predicative adjectives are held to underly attributives (Harris, 1952; Chomsky, 1957: 72; Lees, 1960a), and are further embedded from underlying relative clauses (Smith, 1961, 1964; Lees, 1960b; Katz & Postal, 1964). This position has not apparently been seriously affected by several attacks on the primacy of predicative a…

Some Unpublished Manuscript Poems of Emile Verhaeren (1855-1916)
IT is fifty years since a railway accident at Rouen cut short the life of Emile Verhaeren. The outstanding lyrical poet of the Belgian literary renaissance of the 1880's, regarded in his time as one of the great Europeans, a friend of Rodin and Rilke, a man who embodied the stormy energies of the Flemish race along with its tenderness and mysticism, he belonged to a movement in poetry which has since been submerged by the BaudelaireMallarme-Apoll…

Marie Mauron and Provence
PROVENCE is an 'antique land'. Quite apart from the impressive geological antiquity of the Esterel and of the Corniche des Maures (about 500 million years, immensely older than the Mediterranean as now known), its place even in recorded history goes well back into pre-Christian times. In Ligurian days' Marseilles (Massilia) was settled by a Greek merchant community from Asia Minor: it was defended by the ubiquitous Roman legions against the Oxybi…
The Novels of Paul Gadenne
PAUL GADENNE'S work has suffered, it seems, a total eclipse, quite undeserved. Since his death on May 1st, 1956, apart from items like a brief notice necrolagique in the FigarO' litteraire, a sparing paragraph or two by 'M. A.' (Marcel Arland), in the N.N.R.F. (juin 1956, p. 1118). followed by a short inedit, only Albert Beguin (in Esprit, juin 1956, no. 239 and nov. 1956, no. 244) and Bernard Dort (in ;Cahiers du Sud, 1956, no. 336) can be said …
