This paper examines forms through which black/Afro-descendant migrants are represented in a newspaper from Brazil and another from South Africa, mostly considering meaning effects on the construction of race and ethnicity in news articles published by both media outlets in 2015. This work also uses Corpus Linguistics and Critical Discourse Analysis in order to deal with the verbal language of both periodicals. Preliminary conclusions suggest that black/Afro-descendant migrants are represented from the perspective of criminality, either as victims or agents of illegality. Furthermore, these subjects are generally positioned as mere beneficiaries of solidarity, particularly in the case of Brazil, or as offenders in the case of the South African newspaper. Although a passivizing representation is common between the two outlets, the Brazilian newspaper employs more editorial resources of reported speech on migrants, while the South African newspaper either silences them or applies fewer editorial strategies.

The translingual orientation represents an important paradigm shift for language studies and language education nowadays. In this field, stands out the collapse of monolithic, monolingual and structuralist ideas regarding the world, the subject and the language-culture. In this sense, this paper aimed to present the fundamental principles of translanguaging, the meaningmaking according to the translanguaging perspective and the implications of translanguaging experiences in teaching and learning languages through a decolonial perspective. Finally, I present some considerations about how translanguaging practices point to the development of a linguistic reality that, in addition to the flexibility of linguistic and semiotic resources to give senses and meanings to the world, questions power relations and the subalternization of knowledge, thus promoting social justice through language education.

The intention of this article is to reflect on the concepts of norm and linguistic norm. The text begins by showing how the reflections of Social Sciences, particularly Sociology, maybe fruitful for defining the concept of norms in the area of Linguistics, as the latter turned its attention to this concept later than the other disciplines. The main conceptualizations proposed in Linguistics are then presented. Finally, attention is given to the concept of standard language, whose definition still varies from one author to another. In this way, the paper brings several clues to deepen the reflection on the subject and hopes to contribute to its relevance as an object of scientific research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper starts from the Foucauldian principle that pedagogy emerges marked by the problem of the government of children. Still, in competition with a Deleuze-Guattarian concept called anti-production centered on the demands of caring for the self to conclude that pedagogy was not well enough to govern the children. It was necessary to engender a machine capable of handling everyone through extensive schooling practices and the intensive conditions of production control and circulation of subjectivity patterns. Through the readings of Foucault, Bakhtin, Deleuze, and Guattari, the text proposes an analysis-essay of discourse on a topic of broad interest in pedagogy and philosophy of education, which is the transition from the teaching of individuals to the education of society.

Vocabulary learning and body movement have received little emphasis on several language teaching methods and approaches for a considerable time (Scaramucci, 1995; Souza, 2004; Gattolin, 2005; Procópio, 2016). With the insertion of immersive technologies, such as Augmented Reality, new trends have broadened the horizons of Applied Linguistics regarding language learning (Legault et al., 2019). It is in this context that the present paper aims to explore the contribution of body movement in L2/LE vocabulary learning in Augmented Reality environment. The following methodological procedures were applied to 15 high school students of a Technical Course in Informatics from a Federal Institute of Rio de Janeiro: exposure to the Augmented Reality environment, an environment evaluation questionnaire (MAAVIRA) and an individual interview. Based on the assumptions of Embodied Cognition, this exploratory research traces promising paths pointing out that body movement can effectively contribute to L2/LE vocabulary learning given that the hypermodality present in Augmented Reality enables the combination and integration of different modalities in the information presentation.

This paper presents an experience report of working with computational thinking in Portuguese language classes for 7th and 9th grade students at an Elementary State School in Mato Grosso. The study is based on fundamentals of Computational Thinking and Unplugged Computing to describe two teachers' views (collected via semi-structured interviews) on students' participation in the didactic situation and on the concepts of computational thinking, stylistics and morphophonology addressed in the pedagogical activities with unplugged computing resources. The pedagogical activities were based on the task "You can repeat", taken from the book Computer Science Unplugged, which promotes unplugged computing as a teaching methodology. The results show teachers' and students' acceptance of this methodology, and that it is possible to integrate computational thinking and Portuguese language teaching in activities in line with the National Curricular Common Base.

This paper aims to discuss the nature of gender marks in Portuguese, their relationship with thematic vowels and their functions. We believe that the distinction between the concepts of gender endings and thematic vowel is psychologically unreal. In addition, we hypothesize that the function of the gender constructions (as they are called here) is closely related to the categories of social gender. Thus, even when combined with inanimate referent nouns, they convey such meaning, which forces speakers to assign characteristics commonly related to social genders, and therefore to humans, to inanimate referents. In this sense, we defend, in this work, that language affects the way we think in some way, approaching Linguistic Relativism. Such statements were corroborated by results obtained through the linguistic experiment reported here. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper arms to describe the grammatization process of pronominal address terms in Spanish pedagogical grammar published between the 18th and 19th centuries. The time frame was chosen due to the changes observed in the production of pedagogical grammar and in the use of these linguistic forms in this period. The methodology adopted is of a qualitative and exploratory nature and it assumes as a procedure of analysis a documental research that includes the comparison of four grammars produced between the aforementioned centuries. It was found that only the grammar of the first half of the 18th century does not contain mention of the usted form. The two from the 19th century contemplate this form by categorizing it as a pronoun or equivalent. The use of the pronoun vos also appears with delimitations of its context of use in the manual analyzed for the second half of the 18th century, notes that are repeated in the two grammars of the 19th century, increasingly limited to more formal registers.

In this paper, I propose a formal description and analysis of verb and noun agreement in brazilian portuguese (BP). The formal account allows us to analyze, in the same computational grammar, agreement patterns from standard and popular varieties of BP. For that, the main types of agreement were identified and described based on agreement theories (STELLE, 1978; CORBETT, 2003; 2006). The formal account was based on Lexical-Functional Grammar (DALRYMPLE, HRISTOV, 2010; DALRYMPLE; WECHSLER; ZLATIĆ, 2000; 2003). In this work, it was assumed that BP uses two levels of lexicogrammatical features for number agreement: morphosyntactic features (CONCORD) and semantic features (INDEX), which license alternative and varied agreement patterns. The formalization was implemented computationally through the XLE system, and tests were carried out with exemplary sentences for the modelled patterns. As a result, the grammar assigned to the sentences the expected analysis, licensing the acceptable patterns and blocking the unacceptable ones. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we aim to analyze the digital advertising discourse of the "new" Social Welfare, in order to comprehend ideological effects in the constitution of the meanings and subjects. The corpus consists of a publication on the federal government's page "Previdência e Trabalho" on Facebook, and a materiality available at the government's website, which was used in the Welfare reform's proposal (RP). The study is theoretically supported by the assumptions of Discourse Analysis (AD) in the perspective of Michel Pêcheux. The results show that the discourse of the "new" Social Welfare, inscribed in the state discourse formation (FD), although it is crossed by several other FDs, it is strongly governed by the neoliberal FD; in this plot, the digital media works as an ideological apparatus of state propaganda, which seeks to inculcate meanings of prosperity and development in the nation through the approval of the RP. Thus, despite the sayings about the "new" Social Welfare produce effects of transparency and univocal logic, the equivocation is established, because the meanings can always be different.

This paper aims to identify the rhetorical organization of the genre hypermediatic infographic in the context of education, based on the model proposed by Fogolari (2009) for printed journalistic infographics. Grounded on the theoretical and methodological socio-rhetorical framework by Swales (1990, 2004) and on his CARS model, this qualitative study also employs quantitative methods to detect the frequency of the moves identified in a corpus of twenty hypermediatic infographics. We conclude that the rhetorical organization of hypermediatic infographics reflects their context of production, revealing the adaptation of their characteristics to the needs of the individuals in a context of social change.

This paper looks into the many-sided debate on the definition and thus delimitation of translation, extending over a generalized conception of translation as interlingual meaning transfer, a linguistically-centered expansion of translation, a modal orientation of translation, as well as a semiotic reform of translation. It is contended that the many ‘expansionist’ attempts at redefining translation, albeit bringing about a refreshing departure from the rigid, traditional concept at first blush, are either still predisposed to the translation myth (a manifestation of the language myth), or reliant on decontextualization and depersonalization. An integrationist critique on some major trends in the redefinition of translation will be offered in this paper, as well as an introduction to an integrationist view of translation.

This paper aims to understand the correlation between language and discourse identity for Black women through an analysis of Beyoncé’s lyrics across time. Its specific goal is to investigate the occurrence of code-switching between Standard English (SE) and African American Vernacular English (AAVE) in the singer's lyrics within different music domains. So, we analyzed the frequency of five AAVE syntactic structures in different music genres - hip hop and rap - in distinct phases of her career. The results show an overall decrease of SE forms and an increase in the use of AAVE forms, though the singer continues to practice code-switching in her songwriting. This represents a transition in Beyoncé's language use, indicating a correlation between language choice and Black Women discourse identity.

In this paper, the three authors, who work with language teacher education, especially English as an additional language in Brazil, discuss two of their projects, aligned with multimodality and multiliteracies, as derived from systemic functional linguistics. The project at the Federal University of Paraíba, entitled Reading the verbal text and the image in contemporary media, focuses mainly on Brazilian magazine covers (and their related articles), addressing various issues such as the representation of social movements, of women’s identities, masculinities and teachers’ identities. The second project, Critical Genre Analysis and implications for multiliteracies, carried out at the Federal University of Santa Maria, discusses how the process of producing teaching materials can benefit from critical genre pedagogy (MOTTA-ROTH, 2008a, 2008b) and multiliteracies pedagogy (THE NEW LONDON GROUP, 1996, 2000; COPE; KALANTZIS, 2009). Based on the findings of the projects, we argue that multiliteracies should be viewed as a potentially meaningful process in language teacher education and we hope the projects may contribute to make students aware of the array of meaning-making resources to produce and interpret multimodal texts in society.

The present special issue goes back to the online conference entitled Integrationism and Language Ideologies (March 15-20, 2021), which was organized by the Language Policy Group of the Federal University of Santa Catarina in conjunction with the International Association for the Integrational Study of Language and Communication (IAISLC). The contributions in this issue are for the most part revised versions of the conference papers presented at the event. The special issue also features an interview with integrationist David Bade as well as a Portuguese translation by Cristine Severo and Ana Cláudia Eltermann of one of Harris’ texts (‘The integrationist critique of orthodox linguistics’). The present volume introduces key ideas on Roy Harris’ integrational linguistics to a Lusophone readership by highlighting relevant issues in language ideology, linguistic methodology, decolonial linguistics and (socio)linguistic theory. The various contributions all underline the necessity to rethink (or ‘demythologize’) the semiological and philosophical foundations of orthodox linguistics and a need to develop a theory of communication in which language is treated as an integrated mode rather than a segregated object.

In this paper I wanted to give a personal view on where I believe integrationism (Harris, 1981, 1998) sits in the current field of linguistics and applied linguistics research. In doing so I hoped to try to clarify what I see as the distinctive contribution that the integrationist tradition may make in responding to the challenge that Alastair Pennycook and Sinfree Makoni (2020) have posed of a re-made linguistics which can learn from and do justice to the struggles for both social justice and equality across both the Global South and Global North as well as for harmonious and mutually beneficial relations with our world and the other beings that share it with us.
