TEXT 05

What is English as a Lingua Franca

What students need most from their language classes affects how we teach. But to what extent do we consider students' needs when it comes to pronunciation? How often do we stop to consider the needs of students who are learning English to mainly communicate with other non-native speakers? In this situation, English is used as a Lingua Franca ( henceforth ELF) - a common language between people who do not share the same native language. So their needs are quite different to students who go to the UK, for example, and want to integrate within that culture and so may want to sound as much like a native speaker as possible. The priority for students using ELF, on the other hand, is to be as intelligible as possible to the people they are communicating with. This does not necessarily mean sounding like a native speaker.

Mario-Centered Nintendo Land To Open By Tokyo Olympics

Nintendo Land is set to become the next highly-anticipated attraction at Universal Studios Japan, where it is scheduled to debut by 2020 in time for the Tokyo Summer Olympics. The recently confirmed $350 million deal was said to mirror the same large-scale investment that was needed in building the Harry Potter-themed area of the park, which opened to the public in July 2014.

TEXT 06

The (in)appropriate speaker model?

"Anyone working in the field of English as a Lingua Franca (henceforth ELF) has to face sooner rather than later a serious contradiction: that despite the widespread acceptance of the extensive role of English as an international lingua franca and its increasing number of functions in this respect, there is still an almost equally widespread resistance to this lingua franca’s forms. Given the well-established sociolinguistic fact that languages are shaped by their users, and that nowadays “native speakers are in a minority for [English] language use” (Brumfit 2001, 116), it would make sense for English language teaching to move away from its almost exclusive focus on native varieties of English. This suggestion always meets, however, with strong resistance from many quarters, and this is particularly so in the case of accent. The result is that two particular native speaker English accents, Received Pronunciation (RP) and General American (GA), continue to command special status around the English speaking world including international/lingua franca communication contexts where sociolinguistic common sense indicates that they are inappropriate and irrelevant."

GOOGLE HAS REFUSED GOVERNMENT DEMANDS TO TAKE DOWN A GAY MUSIC VIDEO IN KENYA

Kenya’s attempt to stop people from watching a music video celebrating gay couples is backfiring. Three weeks after trying to ban a local rap artist’s remake of Same Love, (1)__________ Macklemore and Ryan Lewis, Google Kenya has refused to pull the video from YouTube, where it has now been viewed (2)____________ 140,000 times. Kenyan regulators banned the video in late February, claiming that the content threatens to turn the country (3)___________ “Sodom and Gomorrah” and declaring that anyone caught distributing it would be punished. But the agency that banned it also retweeted a link to it—which ended up bringing more attention to Kenya’s nascent gay rights campaign. (…)
