‘dog’ and ‘cat,’ then progresses to ‘fish.’ Past language samples that detail the students’ expressive vocabulary showed that the students had acquired the first three target vocabulary words both receptively and expressively for the ‘pets’ theme. The next vocabulary word in the sequence of pets is ‘bird,’ and this word was confirmed as an appropriate target as the students were unable to perform either a receptive task of pointing at a bird whenever told by the teacher or expressively labeling…

When i see those two words togther i think they are similar, as they both result insomething that you are talking about with passion. Tannen uses the phrase heated depate as she describes that in a classroom in a high school. “They refuse to concede a point raised by…

over Time” Words more commonly used in everyday life are far less likely to evolve compared to less frequently used words, seen across multiple Indo-European languages. One of the main examples, in English, is irregular verbs. As language evolved from Old to Middle to current English, fewer and fewer irregular verbs (non “-ed”) existed. Studies found that the verbs that have been regularized were used significantly les compared to those that remained unchanged to this day. “New word order”…

preschoolers’ language development. Researchers primarily use two methods in order to gain this information. The first kind is a language sample analysis. While similar to the measurements used on toddlers, there are more options available to study the development of preschoolers. To study semantics, researchers look at the “total number of words” (TNW), number of different words (NDW), and the type token ratio (TTR)”. In order to study syntax, they will focus on “mean length of utterance (MLU)…

a benefit for these people of the Amazon who are constantly surrounded by a multitude of hazardous animals to specify when they saw an event? Perhaps, they have learned that it is advantageous to pay close attention to the timing of occurrences in order to have the ability to accurately relay the information if it is needed in treacherous times. In America, one could say ‘I saw a piranha at the zoo,’ and it would not matter to most if that was ten years ago or yesterday because they are in a…

Language, is used in order to communicate, form opinions, problem solve, and establish interpersonal relationships. Through the accounts of Tannen, Sanders, and Hughes, they discuss the significance of certain words and the many interpretations conveyed by people of different perspectives. Most of the writers centered around the pragmatic aspect of language; the intentions of spoken or written expression. Semantics of language, or the study of defining language were also used in the articles.…

a group of words, phrases and sentence. The tone is used in the following example: if we read this sentence in a rising tone, this sentence means that I can’t hear, please tell again. Although in a falling tone, we will understand I am sorry and please forgive me. 二． Syntactic ambiguity Syntactic ambiguity is a situation where a sentence may be interpreted in more than one way due to ambiguous sentence structure. Syntactic ambiguity arises not from the range of meaning of single words but from…

The word snuffles is synonymous with the action of sniffling and snivelling, meaning the sharp intake of breath or mucous which results in an audible sound. This word is supposedly not a commonly known English word, and is often replaced by its more common synonym “sniffling”. Originating from the Dutch word “snuffelen”, the word originally meant “to sniff about, pry”, which is similar to its modern day definition. To be more specific, the modern day definition of the term snuffling refers…

So Mote It Be I got the word incorrect because I had no clue as to what it really meant. I was unable to know the true meaning to the word, but it goes way beyond just knowing a word you have to understand and really know how to use it correctly in order to understand where it comes from. I am thanking or asking for help in some way. It is the thought of something in which I want it to be done. It is important to believe that it will be done the way you want it to be done, if I want it done I…
