Here are some famous definitions to the "Procrastination", Merriam‐Webster: “To put off intentionally the doing of something that should be done.” Dictionary.com: “To put off till another day or time; defer; delay.” TheFreeDictionary.com: “To postpone or delay needlessly.” However procrastination is much more than postponing something, and the concept isn’t as simple as many people think.

Introduction Oral communication has united people over the ages. Stories have been created by people to entertain, to educate and to record events. Before the introduction of the writing system, stories were transmitted orally from one generation to the next generation. Communities have depended on such exchanges and transfers. Even cultures and communities that are dominated by literacy, have large sections of non-literate people whose culture is largely oral. In India, several…

represent the remembered, which is the literal translation of the word. Therefore the Smrti texts include much of the poetic literature, epics, the texts on the four goals of human life (Dharma, Artha, Kama, Moksha) and the six Vedangas that govern language, astronomy and rituals. Smrti is the text of remembrance and therefore its key functions in the initial stages was to supply highly precise expressions to capture facts, principles and ideas. 2) Śruti is the most authoritative Vedic text that…

Translation is an art that requires both a skill and a knowledge. It is not just the mere conveying of words from a source language to a target language. It is more of a complicated process. Translation is the transferring of a language as well as a culture. According to Bassnett (2002), translation does not only involve the replacement of lexical and grammatical elements between two languages, but also requires conveying the cultural settings of the texts. Lefevere and Bassnett view…

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK The assertiveness score for Vietnam is not reported in the GLOBE framework. Therefore, in order to estimate the level of assertiveness in Vietnam, this study looks at that of its neighboring countries. Clusters of countries within geographic proximity (Furnham, Kirkcaldy & Lynn, 1994) reveal important information about societal variation, intercultural similarities and differences. This allows the researcher to make inference about Vietnam based on empirical findings…

Although conceptual and procedural knowledge cannot always be separated, it is useful to distinguish between the two types of knowledge to better understand knowledge development. First consider conceptual knowledge. A concept is ‘an abstract or generic idea generalized from particular instances’ (Merriam-Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary, 2012). Knowledge of concepts is often referred to as conceptual knowledge (e.g. Byrnes & Wasik, 1991; Canobi, 2009; Rittle-Johnson, Siegler, & Alibali, 2001).…

In the excerpts from his book, Paul Frankl introduced the concepts of symbols of mean and symbols of form. Separated into two sections, Frankl establishes a difference between the two and explains the “three degrees” of symbolism within a cathedral:1) natural objects, 2) works of man, and 3) symbols. In his exploration of these two types of symbolism, Frankl takes a great care to address linguistics and point out specific word choices he is making to avoid confusion. Throughout these excerpts,…

As technology advance, so does our way of communicating. In Michaela Cullington’s “Does Texting Affect Writing” Cullington answer the effects of textspeak, a language used in texting that is often composed of abbreviation, acronyms, and emoticon. In her essay, she addresses the concerns, her experimentation, and findings on the effects of textspeak. Using several rhetorical contexts: logos, pathos, and ethos, Cullington puts forth a convincing argument against textspeak impacting formal writing…

that we do not speak language, but language speaks us. Specifically, Saussure (1916) argued against the “default setting” that is nomenclature, stating “for some people a language, reduced to its essentials, is a nomenclature: a list of terms corresponding to a list of things” (p. 97). I am arguing in Saussure’s defense against nomenclature by highlighting his objections, uncovering the problematic notions that language is arbitrary and conventional. Saussure argues that language is not just a…

Why are literacy skills paramount for the future? There are countless logics why you should learn the literacy skills. If you’re telling a speech or writing a letter you would admire to sound formal. If you don’t receive literacy skills then some people wouldn’t care for the reason that you don’t have the skills you need. You may not understand what other people are talking about then you’re just confused and don’t know what to say. That’s why literacy is important. I’m going to be talking to…
