We report a quantitative analysis of the attitudes to taaroff held by 60 Iranians (30 women and 30 men) of two age groups (20–29 and 40–59 years old) and their use of formulaic taaroff expressions in conversations. The data come from dialogues elicited from the participants in Iran via short scripted scenarios and from their answers to a questionnaire survey about their attitudes to taaroff. Taaroff expressions were manually extracted from the dialogue transcripts and their overall use as well as frequencies of each expression were compared across the gender and age groups with the help of t-tests. The participants’ answers to the survey questions were compared across the groups with Kruskal-Wallis H tests. The results show statistically significant differences in the participants’ attitudes to taaroff and in its use in dialogues by gender and age group.","PeriodicalId":37349,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language and Culture","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48919633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is important to understand what these expressions really mean and how they\u0000 compare with equivalent concepts in other languages. To that end, this study investigates\u0000 haghighat/vagheyat expressions that instantiate cultural conceptualizations in Persian. This\u0000 is the first attempt at employing the analytical tools of Cultural Linguistics (Sharifian\u0000 2011, 2017b) to exclusively focus on exploring such cultural\u0000 conceptualizations. In order to study naturally instigated expressions, the researcher makes use of multiple sources including an\u0000 open-ended questionnaire, dictionaries, online sources, and focus group interviews. The study further draws on the author’s\u0000 intuition as a native speaker and analyzes have been cross-checked by a number of Persian native speakers and experts. Analysis of\u0000 the data concerns the significant conceptualizations of haghighat/vagheyat expressions, indicating that\u0000 haghighat/vagheyat functions as the main conceptual basis for many manifestations of truth/reality in\u0000 Persian. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate that a number of sociocultural factors such as religion, history, and literature\u0000 have a role in shaping the cultural conceptualizations of haghighat/vagheyat expressions in Persian.","PeriodicalId":37349,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language and Culture","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41583804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The popularity of Japanese wine manga, however, introduces a new venue for wine discourse and vector along which academic\u0000 analysis can be conducted. In this paper, we seek to expand upon prior research on wine semantics and wine discourse by applying the\u0000 framework of Cultural Linguistics to the subgenre of wine manga. Based on an original, Japanese-French bilingual corpus developed from the\u0000 graphic novels Sommelier and Kami no Shizuku – each an epoch-making work, highly didactic in nature – our\u0000 analysis focuses on the conceptual metaphor wine is a person. Results illustrate the Japanese authors’ contribution to the\u0000 figurative language used in wine discourse. In other words, in Japan just as in France, wine is a person, and there is a shared cultural\u0000 understanding of wine, or traits therein, being the embodiment of the human.","PeriodicalId":37349,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language and Culture","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46506600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These songs are distinguished\u0000 musically from other song types, the lyrics are rich in imagery and metaphor (especially relating to birds and animals) and\u0000 allusions to mythology, and they use a lexicon that includes both archaisms and innovative loanwords from neighbouring languages.\u0000 This paper focuses on the magic songs (called anɨn or anen) of the Aguaruna or Awajún, an\u0000 indigenous group of north Peru.

Northern Kampa participants of tsinampantsi ‘joking’ often resort to\u0000 gender-switching strategies for jocular effects. Creatively playing with linguistic gender marking is\u0000 characteristic of tsinampantsi-joking conduct. The study’s findings revealed that there are variable\u0000 lexicogrammatical means for accomplishing the man > woman gender switch. Two basic gender-switching\u0000 strategies are deployed: manipulation of person marking indexes and deployment of derivational morphology. The\u0000 verbal person marking strategy is the most basic and most common means of indicating gender switches, whereas\u0000 derivational morphology functions as a supplementary technique. In gender reversals, participation structure\u0000 (production and reception roles) is predominantly coded by third person (other-role) markers on the verb. The\u0000 woman > man direction of gender reversals is uncommon in joking sequences.","PeriodicalId":37349,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language and Culture","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45921445","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They do so in a special\u0000 sociolinguistically marked register referred to here as ‘secret language’, a linguistic practice not unheard of in New Guinea. The\u0000 same principles at work in secret language can also be seen in the creation of terms for new, modern concepts in the\u0000 sociolinguistically unmarked register of the language. There is additionally some degree of overlap between the two registers,\u0000 since what were originally secret language terms have entered into use in the unmarked register. This suggests that secret\u0000 language has been a resource for resistance to borrowing and brings into focus the larger point that any understanding of\u0000 borrowability should be rooted in the local sociolinguistic context, to the locally relevant ideologies at work and the particular\u0000 creative principles of language use that speakers employ.","PeriodicalId":37349,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Language and Culture","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46663678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
