| Abstract: | These papers represent applications of linguistics in Australian Aboriginal contexts, not only from a language viewpoint, but encompassing the interactions of language, society, politics, and culture. They include: "Loanwords: Ours or Theirs?" (Velma J. Leeding); "We Spell It 'Gooniyandi'" (David Street and Topsy Chestnut); "An Orthography Chosen By Those Who Speak Gooniyandi" (Joyce Hudson); "Misunderstanding Aboriginal English: The Role of Socio-Cultural Context" (Diana Eades); "Linguistics and the Land Rights in the Northern Territory" (David Nash); "Linguistic Considerations of Land Tenure in Western Arnhem Land" (Sue Kesteven); "Teaching Creative Writing to Aboriginal Children in Urban Primary Schools" (Brian Gray); "Rationale for the LIRP2 Method of Teaching English as a Second Language" (Joan Kale); "What is the Minimum Language Proficiency Necessary for English-Medium Training?" (David R. Richards); and "The Place of Linguistics in Teacher Training for Aborigines and Islanders" (Neil Chadwick). (Most papers contain references.) (NAV) |
