Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Language Acquisition Studies:
Research exploring the acquisition of languages, particularly how native languages influence the learning of foreign languages, as seen in studies on Differential Object Marking and grammatical interference. - Historical and Comparative Linguistics:
Investigations into historical texts and linguistic changes over time, including analyses of medieval Frisian and manuscripts in regional dialects. - Corpus Linguistics and Methodological Innovations:
Development of linguistic corpora and methodological frameworks for studying language use, such as the building of a corpus of metalanguage in English linguistics. - Dialectology and Sociolinguistics:
Examinations of dialects and their sociolinguistic implications, including studies on dialectal features and their roles in identity and community. - Interdisciplinary Approaches to Linguistics:
Integration of linguistic studies with other fields such as history, literature, and cultural studies, highlighted by analyses of texts and their transformations.
Trending and Emerging
- Influence of L1 on L2 Acquisition:
There is a growing focus on how first languages influence the acquisition of second languages, as demonstrated by studies on gender agreement and grammatical interference in learners. - Intertextuality and Textual Transformation:
Emerging themes related to intertextuality and the transformation of texts, especially in media adaptations, indicate a trend towards exploring the dynamics of narrative and cultural representation. - Digital Humanities and Corpus Development:
A significant trend is the integration of digital humanities approaches, including the creation of linguistic corpora and the application of computational methods in language studies. - Cognitive and Psycholinguistic Perspectives:
Increasing attention is being paid to cognitive aspects of language processing and development, as seen in studies involving bilingual narratives and dyslexia.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Language Teaching Methodologies:
There has been a noticeable decline in publications focused on historical foreign language teaching methodologies, suggesting a shift towards more contemporary and empirical approaches. - General Syntax and Morphology Studies:
Research specifically targeting general syntax and morphology has decreased, possibly indicating a move towards more applied linguistics and language acquisition studies. - Descriptive Linguistics on Lesser-Known Languages:
While still present, the exploration of lesser-known languages has declined in favor of more popular languages, which may reflect a trend towards mainstream linguistic topics.
