The contemporary world is marked by a state of ongoing tension, no longer driven by isolated crises, but by the convergence and interplay of multiple, simultaneous crises: pandemics, war, migration, climate catastrophes, economic instability, disinformation, and the erosion of social trust. This polycrisis has become a new paradigm of experiencing reality 鈥� complex, unpredictable, and difficult to articulate in simple terms.
In this context, language gains critical importanc

The contemporary landscape of Legal English is increasingly defined by a shift from a monolithic entity to a diverse array of Legal Englishes, reflecting the role of English as a global lingua franca in legal, judicial and institutional settings. Within multilayered legal systems, practitioners and
Contemporary democracies face political and social crises fueled by discriminatory and xenophobic ideologies that challenge the legitimacy of diversity and the recognition of the other (Piccardo, 2017; Dalgalian, 2017; Spa毛th, 2010; Ranci猫re, 2005). In this context of growing nationalism (Billig, 1995), this conference proposes to examine, from a critical perspective and in light of recent global events, the role of multilingualism and language education in the construction and preservation of d
In such literature as I am able to search (as well as what I can find via Internet searches) such borrowings seem to be very rarely reported. I do not assume that this necessarily is representative because it seems to me that one cannot easily get info on MOST languages this way (which is a very general problem). The one example that seems solid of a total replacement of the native word by a borrowed one that I have is Island Carib. Japanese, Korean, and Balinese are reliably documented as hav
Having received incredibly helpful answers to my last two queries on here, I wonder if anyone would know about medieval German plant names. Merlbl眉mchen (Merl probably as the diminutive of Marie) is attested (once only as far as anybody knows). However Merlaub is attested as a medieval Jewish woman's first name and much later as a Jewish surname. There are names ending in -laub, and it occurred to me that *merlaub (Middle High German -loup) could well have existed, but I can find no relevant i

Focus: The topic of emotions is a complex one: it belongs to that category of phenomena that everyone can intuitively grasp, yet no one can fully or satisfactorily define. Dictionaries describe emotion as a 鈥渞eactive, reflexive, involuntary behavior experienced simultaneously at the bodily level, to a greater or lesser degree of intensity, and affectively as pleasure or pain鈥� (TLFi). The phenomenon thus combines at least two dimensions 鈥� a physical and a cognitive聽one 鈥� and is expressed in terms
