His works bring the philosophy of dialogism into the discussions of literary works and sees the relationship between the author and the hero in terms of a dialogue. The author should release his power to enable the full blooming of the consciousness, as revealed in language of the hero. With all the characters blooming in their diverse ideologies, the novel can be written in the mode of “polyphony” with its diversity of languages deeply rooted in social life. Nevertheless, the authorial discourse is responsible for the style of the novel. He must be conscientious in the arrangement of characters and settings and meticulous in presenting the structure of the narrative. This study examines those diverse social languages presented in Edith Wharton's The Custom of the Country to testify that the author's voice strikes roots in the formation of a novel. Pointing out Bakhtin's possible mistakes in the discussion of those social languages in Wharton's novel, I want to show that the linguist's persistence in the author-hero dialogical sphere needs to be revised to be more satisfying.

Using a corpus data, the paper argues that the two terms display cultural and linguistic meanings which are sometimes lacking in Setswana dictionaries and certain translations. The analysis of the data reveals that the two colour terms collocate with a variety of other words in the language to result in a complex array of meanings. Further, the analysis reveals that while traditionally Ntsho is associated with negative semantics, it is used in a variety of senses to celebrate heroes and heroines in Setswana culture. In a similar way, Tshweu has negative senses in certain limited contexts.

This paper presents the outcome of a study and analysis of 80 randomly selected contemporary Nigerian advertisements. The study/analysis shows that seven out of the eighty adverts i.e.9% use personification. Eleven out of eighty i.e. 14% use alliteration. Thirteen out of eighty i.e. 16% use ambiguous language. Eight out of eighty i.e. 10% use indigenous language. Six out of eight, i.e. 8% use Nigerian Pidgin. Four out of eighty i.e. 5% use faulty language. Seven out of eighty (9%) use pun. One advert each i.e. 1% each use simile, climax and sexist language. The remaining twenty i.e. 25% use simple or plain language.

All the personal names in the text are studied and analysed,\u0000using insights from contextual models. The paper identifies four types of names in\u0000 Anthills : official names, first names, nicknames and institutional/titular names. It\u0000also picks out three dimensions of these names: branching, non-branching and\u0000active-mentioned, which are associated with the types. It shows that the names\u0000have structural and formation patterns such as + title prefixing, +first name, +\u0000surname, indigenous language form, coinage, abbronymy, clipping, qualification\u0000and full form representation. It also demonstrates that the names play contextual\u0000and ideological roles such as being interactional tools, address terms, weapons of\u0000criticisms and vision projectors. The paper concludes that names in Anthills are\u0000carefully chosen to serve particular thematic and stylistic purposes.
