In this article, we analyze the ways in which the discursive contours of the francophone issue and its representation in the discourse of the Colombian print media are defined, based on a corpus of 35 journalistic articles. To this end, we combined textometric analyses obtained with the Iramuteq® software with linguistic discourse analysis tools, in order to propose an interpretative hypothesis. On this basis, we were able to demonstrate that, in the Colombian print media, the issue of francophonie is mainly elaborated on the basis of its relationship to the French language and, more concretely, on the basis of its pragmatic aim, which configures a discursive register of education and work. In addition, there is a quest linked to the desire for social mobility, where language takes on the role of auxiliary, even in the absence of cultural, social, political or historical dimensions. From this point of view, its learning and its use are reduced to a rather technical and individual subject without considering its complex character also constituting the social.","PeriodicalId":39185,"journal":{"name":"Ikala","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134972310","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}

However, there are few studies on its use from a microsociolinguistic approach. This paper aims to analyze the use of the Aymara language in six commercial speech events in a tri-border context involving Aymara speakers from Chile, Peru, and Bolivia. The conversations that happened within these events were collected through audio recordings and written records in a qualitative ethnographic intervention in the so-called three-part fair or “Feria Tripartita” (FT), a commercial event that occurs weekly in the three-border area. The analysis is based on ethnography of communication, conversational analysis, and interactional sociolinguistics. Drawing on this analytical framework, the use of the AL that is manifested there shows code-switching with Spanish, both inter- and intra-orally, along with a series of interlinguistic phenomena, such as the presence of a series of Spanish lexical bases with Aymara suffixation, and the use of unnecessary Spanish loans. Thus the FT, in spite of being an Aymara space that conforms a bilingual speaking community, is a space of influence of the Castilian language, which structurally affects the use of the AL.","PeriodicalId":39185,"journal":{"name":"Ikala","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134972309","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}

This article gathers the results of an empirical study examining the perception of writing administrative textual genres for the general public among two groups in the academic and professional fields. The participating groups were made up of students enrolled at a Spanish state university and the staff of a local administration of reference. Data were based on a quantitative analysis of two surveys carried out among over 2000 people. The analysis allowed researchers to identify that the genres most frequently requested and those with which writers struggled the most, in both academic and professional contexts, were: report (informe), requisition (requerimiento), resolution (resolución), agreement (contrato) and minute (acta). It also revealed that the biggest challenges faced by both sets of people when having to write those genres were: unawareness of the proper structure and lexical choice. These findings confirm that both students and administrative professionals face issues when writing the textual genres specific to their field. Likewise, they suggest that there is some correspondence between university curricula and professional practice in terms of writing administrative genres.","PeriodicalId":39185,"journal":{"name":"Ikala","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135786491","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}

Este artículo presenta los resultados emergentes de un proyecto de investigación cualitativa que indagó sobre los aprendizajes asociados a las experiencias formativas en dichos entornos de estudiantes de pregrado. El análisis se hizo desde la perspectiva de los estudiantes y de otros actores asociados con las prácticas preprofesionales, profesionales y pasantías como los directivos académicos, los coordinadores, los profesores, y los asesores. El estudio fue llevado a cabo en cuatro programas de una universidad privada colombiana y se basó en cuestionarios y entrevistas, realizadas a los diferentes actores.

Nonetheless, English language teaching still uses a separatist model in which other languages and identities are reduced and subalternized. This evident separation of languages has forced many English speakers to identify with the non-native label, prevented them from using the linguistic resources they have previously acquired from other languages to communicate and learn in given settings, and made the different ways they exist invisible. From a narrative perspective, this article documents how two English teacher educators do not conform to this native ideology by resorting to a translanguaging pedagogy. It narrates their pedagogical experiences and insights preparing English teachers in Colombia and explores how they use their linguistic repertoire as a mechanism to teach. Their narratives reveal that translanguaging is a pedagogy that allows English teachers to challenge discourses framed in monolingual perspectives. They also indicate that by implementing a translanguaging pedagogy, English teachers can foster and enact a counter-nonnative ideology that enables them to reclaim their identities. All in all, the results of this inquiry suggest that it is worth pursuing translanguaging as a language pedagogy that disrupts colonial language practices and identity discourses.","PeriodicalId":39185,"journal":{"name":"Ikala","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135786328","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}

Even though universities and research centers provide some guidelines for its preparation, there is not a clear description of this genre's textual structure or of its pragmatic features. Given this situation, we developed a qualitative research study which aimed to describe the rhetorical movements and the use of intensification and attenuation mechanisms deployed by applicants to two post-graduate programs of two universities in Mexico in 30 motivation letters written in Spanish language. For the analysis, we used the ATLAS.ti 9 software. Findings show that four rhetorical movements characterize this genre, namely, (a) to explicitly state the reasons for applying, (b) to present the applicant's objectives, (c) to persuade the reader, and (d), to express future expectations. Meanwhile, intensification appears to be more common than attenuation, suggesting that the applicants strive to build a valuable self-image for the selection committee while keeping some degree of modesty, given the asymmetry in the reviewer-applicant relationship. This study highlights the importance of integrating this genre and its discursive features in the teaching of academic writing at universities, acknowledging the discursive characteristics of each disciplinary community.","PeriodicalId":39185,"journal":{"name":"Ikala","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135786432","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}

Estudios en español han mostrado que la conexión puede realizarse implícita y explícitamente a través de diversas configuraciones. Algunas de estas configuraciones, además de realizar conexión, implican determinados posicionamientos interpersonales. El objetivo de este artículo es caracterizar la interacción entre los significados de conexión y significados interpersonales en la construcción de la causalidad histórica. Para ello, se analizan las secuencias causales en fragmentos provenientes de un texto escolar chileno de Historia para tercer año de enseñanza secundaria, desde una perspectiva semántico-discursiva utilizando la lingüística sistémico-funcional. El análisis de las secuencias permite observar que el sistema de conexión interactúa con los subsistemas interpersonales de compromiso y gradación. En relación con el subsistema de compromiso, las conexiones realizadas verbalmente (p. ej. A permitió B) juegan un rol en el cierre o apertura del espacio dialógico. Respecto del subsistema de gradación, las mismas conexiones permiten agudizar o suavizar la actualización de la conexión causal. Desde una mirada multifuncional del lenguaje, se concluye que la construcción de la causalidad genera ensambles con significados lógicos e interpersonales que son relevantes en la interpretación del pasado.","PeriodicalId":39185,"journal":{"name":"Ikala","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135786324","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}

For this reason, the aim of this article is to provide insights into the main concerns of future translators regarding professional competences. To understand these concerns, a corpus was created using the questions posted by future translators in a forum located on a very well-known translation site: Proz.com. A total of 125 posts were processed and thematically coded using the corpus manager Sketch Engine. The thematic codes were based on two multi-componential models of translator competence: PACTE’s and EMT Board’s models. Once the content was coded, qualitative content analysis was carried out in order to analyse the main concerns of translators-to-be in relation to professional competences. Results show that marketing, industry, and business knowledge are among the main causes of worry of prospective translators. Although the results are not generalisable, the conclusions drawn from this study provide translator trainers with a comprehensive view of what professional competences should be reinforced in the classroom.","PeriodicalId":39185,"journal":{"name":"Ikala","volume":"106 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135786325","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}

Luego se contrastó la información obtenida con los datos ofrecidos por el libro Biblioteca chilena de traductores, y se elaboró una base de datos que especificara traductoras, traducciones, año de la publicación y género. Los resultados muestran variables sociocontextuales del momento de producción, como las fuentes desde las que se traducía, el idioma, las áreas temáticas y las funciones que cumplían las traducciones en las revistas. También, develan un cambio en las áreas temáticas que se traducen, ya que se observa cómo la religión y la literatura fueron desplazadas por textos de opinión y divulgación, y la función patriótica o pedagógica se sustituyó por funciones de divulgación y de formación. Esta última función configura las revistas como un campo de acción preliterario utilizado por las mujeres para desplegar su agencia social e insertarse en el campo intelectual.
