"Quite simply the most serious early intermediate textbook currently available for thoughtful American students at the university level." --Professor Stephen O'Harrow, Director, Center for Southeast Asian Studies, University of Hawai'i at Manoa This is a second-year, intermediate Vietnamese language course designed for high school, college or self-study. Continuing Vietnamese is your next step toward master; it follows the best-selling, linguistically-based Elementary Vietnamese, and helps you progress to an intermediate level of communicating in Vietnamese. Invaluable for anyone planning to travel, study or work in Vietnam, this complete language course has been extensively tested at Harvard University. The accompanying native-speaker audio helps to develop listening comprehension and ensure correct pronunciation. The book contains ten lessons, each composed of two parts. Part 1, the dialogue part, introduces the learner to conversational Vietnamese as it's currently spoken in Hanoi so that the learner will be able to participate in engaging conversation on a variety of topics. Part 2, the narrative part, includes written materials that are characteristic of formal Vietnamese. It aims to develop the learner's reading and writing skills as well as speaking skills. The lessons focuse on various aspects of life in present-day Vietnam, including topics such as culture, history, geography, economy, theater, music, tourism, literature, poetry, cinema and sports. Each lesson helps you to learn Vietnamese by building your Vietnamese proficiency using several complementary elements to thoroughly develop your skills in reading, writing, listening and speaking.

Essential Vietnamese Grammar is designed for use by English-speakers to help them speak and write Vietnamese more naturally. The twelve chapters in this book cover the essential sentence constructions of Vietnamese--from beginning to intermediate and advanced levels. Strong emphasis is placed on the differences between translating directly from English, which yields awkward and incorrect sentences, and the use of idiomatic Vietnamese constructions and expressions. This book can be used for self-study or classroom instruction and is perfect for review and brushing up your language skills. All Vietnamese grammatical patterns are clearly explained and copiously illustrated with example phrases and sentences. The chapters progress from fundamental concepts (the sounds of Vietnamese, spelling, the use of accent marks and tones) to structural elements (parts of speech, grammatical functions, the structure of phrases and sentences), and then to nuances expressed through word choice, word order and cultural elements. Each chapter is accompanied by a set of exercises (with answer keys provided) that the learner can use to reinforce their understanding of the materials and their ability to apply them to real-life situations. Audio recordings by native speakers are available online for all the Vietnamese sentences to help the learner acquire good pronunciation and intonation patterns for various types of sentences.

Der systematische Erwerb von Kenntnissen im Umgang mit Quellen in jüdischen Sprachen ist im Wissenschaftsbetrieb ein Desideratum. Das vorliegende Buch liefert hierzu eine praktische Einführung.

Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die Form und Funktion der auf China bezogenen multimodalen Zeichenverwendungen im öffentlichen Raum in Deutschland; diese werden als China-Repräsentationen bezeichnet. Die China-Repräsentationen werden als konstitutive Zeichenressourcen bei der Ortsherstellung verstanden. Ein interdisziplinäres Merkmal des Projekts besteht in der Kombination der Grounded-Theory-Methodologie sowie der Ethnografie mit diskurslinguistischen Methoden. Ziel der Untersuchung ist es, empirisch gestützte Aussagen über den untersuchten Diskurs der China-Repräsentation zu treffen und hierbei eine Grounded Theory zu entwerfen.

"Today the history of ancient Egypt is known around the world, recognizable in precious museum collections and countless retellings from popular culture. Yet for hundreds of years, from the late Roman Empire to the 19th century, the wonders of this ancient civilization were frozen in time, locked in artifacts that could not be understood due to the loss of the ancient Egyptian language. In 1799 the discovery of the Rosetta Stone, a slab inscribed in three scripts, hieroglyphs, demotic and Greek, changed the course of history, unlocking thousands of years of ancient culture and eventually becoming one of the world's most famous museum artifacts. Hieroglyphs: unlocking ancient Egypt tells the story of the Rosetta Stone and of countless other objects that were central to efforts to decode the hieroglyphs dating back to the Islamic Golden Age. Featuring fascinating objects from the British Museum and international lenders, the book shows how the presence of a written language was crucial to understanding life in ancient Egypt, from everyday business affairs to the sacred secrets of the afterlife. Interweaving the story of decipherment with colonial history, the book takes readers up to the present day, revealing what researchers are doing now to tell us more about one of the world's longest surviving civilizations through the understanding of their writing. Published to coincide with the bicentenary of Jean-Fraçnois Champollion's breakthrough in decipherment, this beautifully illustrated book shows how an unassuming gray stone was the key to the secrets of ancient Egypt and led to one of the most significant code breaking moments in history"--Publisher's description.

"Based on the author's life-long research experience, this book unearths the linguistic history of 66 unwritten and under-researched Central Chadic languages in West and Central Africa. It describes the complex historical development of the modern languages from the common proto-language and reconstructs 228 lexical items of their basic vocabulary"--

Commitment is connected to central linguistic features, such as modality and evidentiality. It has thus been investigated in many branches of the field. Building upon this heterogeneous literature, this book offers a cognitive pragmatic account of the processes involved in utterance interpretation, crucially when the hearer assesses the level of commitment linked to it. This research illustrates that the relevance-theoretic notion of strength can be used to capture the cognitive effects of commitment markers (as I think that X, I am sure that X, etc.). The author¿s model is based on a novel typology as well as predictions which were experimentally tested. The results show that commitment to an utterance is indeed cognitively determined by the strength of the hearer¿s corresponding assumptions.

Consonants: the building blocks (with vowels as the glue) of the 'English language construct', are essential to effective and powerful communication. In this detailed, well researched yet accessible guide to their historical origins and accurate use, the authors seek to clarify the consonant sound/symbol correlation, furnishing users of English with a greater understanding of how to enhance their literacy and oracy skills. Within the pages of this entertaining, informative and imaginatively illustrated book you will find everything you need to know about consonants and the fascinating part they play in the structure of the English language.
