The impact of international trade relations on French borrowings into English in the sparkling wine industry: A corpus-driven study conducted by a terminologist by Piotr Nagórka

“…This finding bears out the view that communication in a professional field may be typified by more than one leading (national) language. Moreover, outcomes of the study of encyclopaedic knowledge on sparkling wines, when combined with the results of the study into communication in the fortified wines sector (Nagórka 2021, Nagórka 2023: 94–105), indicate that the history of commercial ties between pertinent language communities (English-speaking community with French-, Portuguese- and Spanish-speaking communities) may be reflected in the scale of borrowing into English for professional purposes. …”

A History of The Six-Year Primary Project in the Use of Yoruba as the Medium of Primary Education by Toyin Falola, Michael Oladejo Afolayan

“…In the last half a century or so, researchers have noticed the problem faced especially by developing nations in their language-related educational policies.1 Some countries, like Burundi, for example, have adopted this mentality and made English the official national language, in hopes that encouraging English will stimulate the economy and improve the job prospects of youth.2 However, research consistently shows that focusing entirely on English or any “majority language” at the detriment of one’s native language actually does more harm than good. …”

Le mouvement étudiant et la question des langues en Algérie (1962-1965) : à propos d’un épisode méconnu de l’histoire de l’UGEMA-UNEA by Yassine Temlali

“…It looks more generally at the positions of this movement on the linguistic problem in Algeria in a context in which the promotion of the “national language”, Arabic, had to reckon with the first questioning of the Arabo-Islamic unanimity imposed by the need for unity against the French occupier.I suggest that the burial of these proposals in favour of Berber languages should be interpreted in the light of the cultural doctrine of the Algerian Communist Party (PCA), then dominant within the framework of the UGEMA, and its general attitude towards the “socialist” regime of Ahmed Ben Bella. …”

Dekonstrukcja nacjonalizmu w wybranych pracach Milicy Tomić by Aleksandra Czarny

“…It demonstrates that the analyzed performances and billboards made by Tomić offer a consistent and theoretically self-aware attempt at a critical dismantling of the nationalist narratives present in post-Yugoslav public discourse through their emphasis on the constitutive function of national languages and state militarism. It is due to this deconstructivist framework that the particular experiences on which Tomić bases her art gain universal significance for our understanding of all nationalisms.…”
