Precision Tuning of the Matrix Language Frame (MLF) Model of Codeswitching
Natural Conversations as a Model for Textbook Dialogue
This paper considers the relevance for TESOL classes (and, indirectly, for any second language classes) of several studies of natural conversations involving native speakers of American English in direction-giving and also in directive use in service encounters. The study demonstrates all direction-givers show overwhelming uniformity in the structure of their direction-giving turn. Also, natural direction-giving contains many other turns and part…

Tóngzhìin China
This paper discusses the use of the title of address,tóngzhì'comrade', in the People's Republic of China today. Empirical data are presented which were gathered to test a set of hypotheses about the unmarked and marked uses of this term. In its unmarked sense, it is a neutral term of address implying conventionalized solidarity. However, in its marked sense its use becomes a negotiation to change the social distance between Speaker and Addressee.…

Language in Kenya
Strategies of Neutrality
Findings on language use among peers in inter-ethnic work situations in three African cities are presented. A clustering algorithm is used to display relations of similarity and dominance among clusters of speakers according to their language choice in this situation. The explanation of these data, as displayed by the algorithm, promotes the development of theory regarding socio-verbal interaction in uncertain situations which call for reciprocal…
Neighbors and Lexical Borrowings
Even with the recent interest in correlating linguistic performance with sociological variables, the tendency in discussions of lexical borrowing is to focus on the words themselves and to ignore the process. This paper argues that the process of borrowing determines what is borrowed. Most borrowings may well be nouns for items new to the borrowing language. However, given sufficiently pervasive cultural contact, speakers may borrow certain types…
Some Swahili Political Words
A Strongly charged Swahili political vocabulary has emerged in Tanzania, which sharply distinguishes persons and nations, in both domestic and foreign affairs, as being either for or against Tanzania's policies. The implications of the selection and usage of this vocabulary are considerable in any assessment of political trends in Tanzania, since language and culture are certainly related. Not only does language reflect cultural patterns, but lan…
