beyond introductory course books to translate from Latin into
English. There are explanations of each Latin construction, graded
exercises, plus notes and exercises on Latin words and usages which
cut across several constructions.
This book examines Chinese tertiary students' experiences of
learning English in Sino-Australian programs in China. Using an
institutional ethnography, the book examines one well-established
Sino-Australian program based at a Chinese university. The book
explores the ways that participant students used the Chinese words,
tropes and their meanings to describe their English learning
experiences with both local Chinese and foreign English teachers.
This book introduces an innovative theoretical framework,
"representation theory with a multilingual perspective", to analyse
how Chinese students' everyday experiences are constructed and
mediated through language, discourse and identity. This framework
also highlights graphic examples of how concepts are created in
both Chinese and English, and thus serves as a powerful tool for
deconstructing dichotomies between China and the West. The aim of
this book is, then, two-fold: to show how a novel theoretical lens
can help us to develop more nuanced understandings of Chinese
students, and to propose a new methodological and theoretical
framework through which one can challenge the monolingual
subjectivity and parochial views of both Chinese and Western
conceptions.

A major enterprise comparable to a grand retrospective of the
painting of some prominent artist of a distinctive school.' Roy
Harris, Times Literary Supplement The tenth volume in Professor
M.A.K. Halliday's collected works includes papers focusing on
Language and Society. The papers provide a framework for
understanding the social meaning of language, and the relation of
language to other social phenomena. The volume begins with
Professor Halliday's ground-breaking work on the users and uses of
language. Subsequent chapters are organized around a discussion of
sociolinguistic theory, and the relation between language and
social class and social structure.
Why another book on grammar? You probably have been learning quite
a lot of grammar, but you are still not clear about how to make a
sentence. Why? Is there anything wrong with your approach to
learning? If we offer you a funny way, a non-traditional method, a
'new' perspective on thinking about grammar, will you try it? The
aim of this book is to introduce a 'new' perspective on learning
grammar, especially for Business English. We start and end with
sentences, the most important part in writing, and sometimes
speaking. Unlike traditional grammar books that discuss nouns,
verbs, adjectives, we go straight to sentences as we believe at the
end of the day what you want are actually sentences. How? This book
has two features: It focuses on how to. Most grammar books helps
you understand grammar terms, but, we show you how to put them into
practice, how to make sentences (written and spoken). This book
also talks about grammar in an easy, funny way. You'll learn
sentence structures by solving a problem between two women who have
to 'share' a husband; you'll get the differences between the past
simple and the present perfect simple by reading a love story; and
there are also funny names such as Lonely, Friendly, Slim, and Fat
Verbs for you to learn.
This work is the ninth volume in the "Collected Works of M.A.K.
Halliday" series. The ninth volume in Professor M.A.K. Halliday's
collected works is dedicated to the subject of language and
education. Professor Halliday sums up the scope of language
education under the following five headings: mother tongue
education; second language learning; multilingual societies;
contexts of language education; and educational linguistics. In
addition to the previously unpublished "Applied Linguistics as an
Evolving Theme" (2002) originally presented by Professor Halliday
on the occasion of his being awarded the first Gold Medal by the
International Association of Applied Linguistics (AILA), this
volume contains another nineteen papers covering a comprehensive
breadth of topics in language and education addressed by Professor
Halliday over the course of his career. The chapters cover language
development, language teaching, multilingualism, functional
variation in language, and the place of linguistics in education.
As a young missionary in Cuba during its revolution 50 years ago,
Carroll English kept a diary of the events as the revolution closed
in upon her and her missionary colleagues in the girl's school
where she had been assigned by her church. The text for this book
