Elen Le Foll 🇫🇷 🇬🇧 🇩🇪<p>This afternoon I tried a new format: I called it "PhD Plätzchen" – an informal forum to ask questions and chat about things to consider when thinking of doing a <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PhD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PhD</span></a> in <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/linguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linguistics</span></a> or <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/LanguageTeaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageTeaching</span></a>. A dozen of my current and former M.A. students turned up and we chatted over a lovely selection of Christmas biscuits (that the students brought along and, in some cases, baked themselves!) and tea. No silly questions, no taboo subjects. We talked about salaries, toxic supervisors, <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/WissZeitVG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WissZeitVG</span></a>, <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/IchBinHanna" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IchBinHanna</span></a>, projects, scholarships, pensions, publish or perish, etc.</p><p>Perfect timing as, just today, the job ads for 12 new <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/PhD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PhD</span></a> positions at the CRC 1252 "Prominence in Language" went online: <a href="https://sfb1252.uni-koeln.de/en/about-the-crc/vacancies" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">sfb1252.uni-koeln.de/en/about-</span><span class="invisible">the-crc/vacancies</span></a>.

Steve McCarty 🇯🇵<p>Rafi Saleh reviews two books related to translanguaging for the journal Applied Linguistics. In my view, his analysis displays a kind of disciplinarity whereby generalities about plurilingualism are vulnerable to criticism from various quarters, but by specifying the perspective, such as policy or ontology, differing stances can both be true.</p><p><a href="https://www.researchgate.net/publication/374532611_Multilingual_Perspectives_on_Translanguaging_The_Invention_of_Multilingualism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">researchgate.net/publication/3</span><span class="invisible">74532611_Multilingual_Perspectives_on_Translanguaging_The_Invention_of_Multilingualism</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/translanguaging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>translanguaging</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/bilingualism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bilingualism</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/multilingualism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>multilingualism</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/LanguageEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageEducation</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/LanguageTeaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageTeaching</span></a> </p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/linguistics" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>linguistics</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://chirp.social/@Bilingualism" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Bilingualism</span></a></span></p><p>Steve's publications on bilingualism: <a href="https://japanned.hcommons.org/bilingualism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">japanned.hcommons.org/bilingua</span><span class="invisible">lism</span></a></p>
Steve McCarty 🇯🇵<p>Too many decades in Japan, but surprised to find that "kawaii" ([Japanese-style] cute, adorable, etc.) has become a loanword in English. Many technical or other English terms that I use are not in the Scrabble Dictionary, but kawaii is. Cuteness is ubiquitous in contemporary Japan, and apparently getting exported. The attached screenshot is from our family LINE group. </p><p>I have always advised college students to use Romanized Japanese terms in sentences if there is no English equivalent.

When students use automatic translation, they have probably thought about the content in Japanese, but they can paste auto-translated English into papers without fulfilling the language-driven mandate to balance the content-driven approach. I do not believe in content-based EFL as a pretext to mask a language-driven agenda, since the students are enriched by the transferable knowledge they gain in L1 as well as in L2.</p><p>Writing reflects thinking, so I discourage writing and speaking that relies on machine translation or AI.

Steve McCarty 🇯🇵<p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.education/@mguhlin" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>mguhlin</span></a></span> In Bilingualism classes in Japan, I can require students to show what they have learned from this class, which is based on reliable research, and to discuss their own experiences in summary, reflection, and response papers. In such ways I can discern how much of students' writing is their own thinking and analyzing. Findings from the discipline of bilingualism are dwarfed by the amount of common misconceptions about bilingualism, which would presumably be reflected in AI databases, from blogs and such sources in Japanese, where students find mostly stereotypical, anecdotal, or prejudiced information for papers, despite my warnings to use reliable sources.

Steve McCarty 🇯🇵<p>Forthcoming presentation "Bilingual Perspectives on Language Teaching: The View from the Goal" at the Japan Association for Language Teaching (JALT) Osaka Chapter Back to School conference on April 23, 2023; event details will be updated at <a href="http://www.osakajalt.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">http://www.</span><span class="">osakajalt.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>ABSTRACT: A goal for language learners is to function in plural languages according to their own purposes. A bilingual perspective starts from that attainable goal. Learners tend to idealize L2 mastery or becoming bilingual, so it becomes other people’s business. Monolingual teachers tell students by their example, “go where I have not gone,” whereas a bilingual teacher says, “come to my state of functioning.” This presentation details a paradigm shift from the predominant monolingual second language acquisition (SLA) paradigm to a developmental bilingual perspective.</p><p>Links to relevant publications: <a href="https://japanned.hcommons.org/bilingualism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">japanned.hcommons.org/bilingua</span><span class="invisible">lism</span></a></p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://chirp.social/@Bilingualism" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Bilingualism</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/linguistics" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>linguistics</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/Bilingualism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Bilingualism</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/BilingualEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BilingualEducation</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/LanguageEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageEducation</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/LanguageTeaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageTeaching</span></a></p>

Steve McCarty 🇯🇵<p>Regarding <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/translanguaging" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>translanguaging</span></a> vs. code-switching between languages, Rafi Saleh in Bangladesh, who did his PhD in Australia on translanguaging, informed me: "According to code-switching theorists, a bilingual has two linguistic systems, whereas a monolingual has one. For translanguaging theorists, both bilingual and monolingual people have one linguistic system, but bilingual people's systems are more complex, and they learn to divide the system into two for external forces rather than linguistic reasons." <br>This accords with my view of always-on bilingual mode. The pictures show my proposed paradigm shift from a conventional <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/ForeignLanguageTeaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ForeignLanguageTeaching</span></a> model to a <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/developmental" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>developmental</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/bilingual" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bilingual</span></a> perspective.</p><p>Join the 🦣 group <span class="h-card"><a href="https://chirp.social/@Bilingualism" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>Bilingualism</span></a></span> to see &amp; share posts. </p><p>Readings: <a href="https://japanned.hcommons.org/bilingualism" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">japanned.hcommons.org/bilingua</span><span class="invisible">lism</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/bilingualism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>bilingualism</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/BilingualEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BilingualEducation</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/multilingualism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>multilingualism</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/multiculturalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>multiculturalism</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/SecondLanguageAcquisition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SecondLanguageAcquisition</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/LanguageEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageEducation</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/LanguageTeaching" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LanguageTeaching</span></a></p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://scholar.social/@EffieKapnoula" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>EffieKapnoula</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@natalieroxburgh" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>natalieroxburgh</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://zirk.us/@shakil_prof" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>shakil_prof</span></a></span> </p><p><span class="h-card"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/linguistics" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>linguistics</span></a></span> <span class="h-card"><a href="https://chirp.social/@edutooter" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>edutooter</span></a></span></p>
