The term retronym was first used by the American journalist Frank Mankievich. William Sapphire made the term popular through an article he wrote for the New York Times. The term was included in the interactive edition of the American Heritage Dictionary, an interactive edition, with the following comment: For example, an acoustic guitar against an electric guitar or an analog clock against an electronic clock. "A retronym is a name derived from the first form of a concept or object. In other words, it represents a new word or phrase that has been devised to distinguish it from its related species. Major changes in the political, economic, scientific and cultural life of the country allow to increase the number of terms in the Uzbek language. This process is widely observed in all styles of literary language, especially in the scientific style and the journalistic style. Collecting them and defining their place in the lexicon is one of the current problems facing our linguistics. The article discusses retronyms and their differences from other phenomena and their place in lexicography.

The purpose of this special issue is to provide a space for scholars to disseminate theory and research about the influence of language in educational contexts. In this issue, we curated articles that address topics related to how language serves as a defining or decisive factor in education and schooling. In our introduction to this special issue, we provide an interpretive overview of the articles and offer an explanation of their relevance for understanding the complex nature of contemporary education. Salient topics include: critical analysis of discourse, linguistic landscapes, Natural Semantic Metalanguage, language ideology, politics and educational funding, funds of knowledge/identity, and definitional caveats related to language learning pedagogies in divergent contexts.

▪ Abstract  This review describes and critiques some of the many ways agency has been conceptualized in the academy over the past few decades, focusing in particular on practice theorists such as Giddens, Bourdieu, de Certeau, Sahlins, and Ortner. For scholars interested in agency, it demonstrates the importance of looking closely at language and argues that the issues surrounding linguistic form and agency are relevant to anthropologists with widely divergent research agendas. Linguistic anthropologists have made significant contributions to the understanding of agency as it emerges in discourse, and the final sections of this essay describe some of the most promising research in the study of language and gender, literacy practices, and the dialogic construction of meaning and agency.

This survey of Persian language instruction in the United States and Canada does not pretend to be exhaustive in coverage, or to present the most up-to-date and complete information in all aspects. A questionnaire was sent in June 1971 to some 28 institutions of higher learning where Persian was known or suspected to be taught at the time. It was divided into 8 sections, each containing a number of specific questions. The section headings were: I. Background Information; II. Objectives of Persian-Language Teaching; III. Teaching Methods; IV. Teaching Materials; V. Teaching Staff; VI. Degrees and Curricula; VII. Applied Research; VIII. Recommendations and General Evaluation. The list of the institutions was compiled from various sources, including MESA bulletins.

'The Korean Language' by Iksop Lee and S. Robert Ramsey is reviewed.

The early stage of child development (0-12 months) was investigated in this study. The kernel of language ability was traced within the frame of the system of psychophysiological development. It was shown that in the process of general development several mechanisms are successively put into operation and function in the different spheres of the infant's psychophysiological activity: body movement, contact with adults (an early form of communication), and vocalization (which is regarded as the preverbal form of the future language). On these grounds, and based on the existence of a special mechanism of inborn vocal activity normally presented by the moment of child birth, a framework of communicative operations with ambient people has been developed. The proposed model explains the advantage of using sound communicative forms, namely the infant's first words.

A defeated, lost, desperate generation clinging to anything that feels like a community. Resigned to the hypocrisy of what was once the Canadian Government Joy Kogawa's Obasan creates a sound for the voiceless. This paper takes an informal stance on translational theory in that it looks at the important role of language brokering and how the improper translations deeply affected Japanese-Canadian's during Pearl Harbor. Not only does Obasan delve into the racial overtones of the 40's but searches for answers regarding the generational divide between the Issei and the Nisei. From the simple translation between an aunt and a niece, to not translating at all: (keeping foreign words) and to the life altering mishandling of the Japanese-Canadian nation, Obasan's take on the internment alongside Muriel Kitagawa's letters and Roy Miki's thoughts on the redress, gives the readers a deep understanding of the difficulties behind the lives of second generation Canadians. This research focuses on the role of the language broker (often the children) as the translators in their families. With British Columbia's continual expansion of diversity, this paper will take a look into the parent-child role reversal as well as the dangers that ultimately follow such daunting tasks.

Language is one of the important communication tools for communicating with other people. Language can be found in both spoken and written forms. One form of language implementation in writing can be found in online news portal newspapers. In each writing, there is a writing style. The writing style itself becomes something unique in each person's writing. One use of writing style can also be found in the news on thejakartapost.com. The purpose of this study is to find out what elements of style that are used in the news and what classification of style that is used in the news. The research subjects in this study were news about the ban on Huawei products by the United States government by thejakartapost.com published on May 16, 2019 to May 23, 2019. There were 3 news items selected and researched by the researcher. This study uses the theory of writing style by Seyler and Joos to examine the data under study. The researcher found that there were 38 simple sentences, 11 compound sentences, 12 complex sentences, 16 connotative words, and 25 quotes. These three stories are neutral in tone because the authors only convey the facts of what happened between the United States government and the Huawei company. The writing style contained in the three news stories is formal due to the choice of words used by the news writers. Keywords: Style analysis, news portal, thejakartapost.com
