dc.description | Synchronic variability in the area of phonetics, phonology, vocabulary, morphology and syntax is a natural feature of any language, including English. The existence of competing variants is in itself a fascinating phenomenon, but it is also a prerequisite for diachronic changes. This volume is a collection of studies which investigate variability from a contemporary and historical perspective, in both native and non-native varieties of English. The topics include Middle English spelling variation, lexical differences between Middle English dialects, Late Middle and Early Modern English forms of address, Middle English negation patterns, the English used by Polish immigrants living in London, lexical fixedness in native and non-native English used by Polish learners, and the phenomenon of phonetic imitation in Polish learners of English. The book should be of interest to anyone interested in English linguistics, especially English phonetics and phonology as well as history of English, historical dialectology and pragmatics. | pl_PL |
dc.description.abstract | The aim of this on-going study is to investigate whether intersegmental silent pauses with regard to formulaic sequences in native speaker English and Polish learner English occur in similar patterns, and whether the selection of the most common two- and three-word phrases in both types of English is alike. The analysis was conducted on the basis of the conversational sub-corpus of the British National Corpus and the spoken part of the PELCRA Learner English Corpus (Pęzik 2012), from which potential lexical bundles were extracted. Then, temporal analysis of audio samples from both corpora corresponding to the potential lexical bundles was performed in order to determine their prosodic features. As a result, the degree of relations between formulaicity of an utterance and its prosodic features, as well as the range of the most frequently used formulaic sequences was shown for both types of English analyzed. | pl_PL |
