MEANING OF LANGUAGE
•Language is a living and dynamic
phenomenon,and people have
always found ways of expressing
their thoughts, feelingseven in
the most tightly controlled and
oppressive societies. In fact
language is continuously creating
new words in order to define a
new concept.

CONCEPT OF LANGUAGE
•‘Language is a mirror of mind in a
deep significant sense. It is a
product of human intelligence,
created a new in each individuals by
operations that lie far beyond the
reach of will or consciousness’.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 19

CHARACTERISTICS OF LANGUAGE
Arbitrary
Social
Symbolic
Systematic
Vocal
Non-Instinctive and Conventional
Productive and Creative
Duality
Humanness
competence and performance
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 20

Arbitrary
•There is no inherent relation between
the words of a language and their
meanings or the ideas conveyed by
them.
•Why female adult human being be
called a woman in English, auratin
Urdu, Zen in Persian and Feminein
French.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 21

Language is Social
•Language in this sense is a
possession of a social group,
comprising an indispensable set of
rules which permits its members
to relate to each other, to interact
with each other, to co-operate with
each other; it is a social institution.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 22

Language is Symbolic
•Language consists of various sound
symbols and their graph logical
counterparts that are employed to
denote some objects, occurrences or
meaning.
•The intelligibility of a language
depends on a correct interpretation
of these symbols.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 23

Language is Systematic
•All languages have phonological and
grammatical systems, and within a
system there are several sub-systems.
For example, within the grammatical
system we have morphological and
syntactic systems, and within these two
sub-systems we have systems such as
those of plural, of mood, of aspect, of
tense, etc.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 24

Language is Vocal
•Language is primarily made up of
vocal sounds only produced by a
physiological articulatory
mechanism in the human body.
•In the beginning, it appeared as
vocal sounds only. Writing came
much later, as an intelligent attempt
to represent vocal sounds
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 25

Language is Non-instinctive, Conventional
•Language is the outcome of evolution
and convention.
•Each generation transmits this
convention on to the next. Like all
human institutions languages also
change and die, grow and expand.
•Every language then is a convention in
a community. It is non-instinctive
because it is acquired by human beings.
Nobody gets a language in heritage;he
acquires it because he an innate ability.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 26

Language is Productive and Creative
•Language has creativity and
productivity. The structural
elements of human language can
be combined to produce new
utterances, which neither the
speaker nor his hearersmay
ever have made or heard before
any, listener, yet which both sides
understand without difficulty.
Language changes according to
the needs of society.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 27

•Language is culturally
transmitted.It is learnt by
an individual from his elders,
and is transmitted from one
generation to another. Thus
usingJ. Firth’sterm,
language is a
‘polysystametic’.It is also
open to be studied from
multifaceted angles.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 28

CONCEPT OF LANGUAGE -based
on its purposes
Universal language
Standard language
Official language
Sister languages
Vernacular languages
International auxiliary language
Inter language
Constructed language
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 29

NATURE OF ENGLISH LANGUAGE TEACHING
As an associate official language
As a library language
As a passport to higher educational
opportunities and better economic gains
As a part of the school curriculum for 6 to 12
years
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 30

Universal language
•Universal language may refer to a
hypothetical or historical language
spoken and understood by all or
most of the world's population.
•Some religious and mythological
traditions state that there was
once a single universal language
among all people,or shared by
humans and supernatural beings
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 31

variety used by a group of people in their public
discourse. Alternatively, varieties become standard
by undergoing a process of standardization, during
which it is organized for description in grammars
and dictionaries and encoded in such reference
works.
•A standard language can be either Pluricentric(e.g.
Arabic, English, French, and Hindi Portuguese and
Spanish)or Monocentric(e.g. Italian, Japanese, and
Russian)
Standard language
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 32

Official language
•An official language is a language that is given
a special legal status in a particular country,
state, or other jurisdiction.
•Typically a country's official language refers to
the language used within government. Since
"the means of expression of a people cannot be
changed by any law", the term "official
language" does not typically refer to the
language used by a people or country, but by
its government.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 33

Sister languages
•In historical linguistics, sister
languages, also known as sibling
languages or brother languages are
family languages; that is, languages
that descend from a common
ancestral language, the so-called
proto-language.Every language in an
established language family is a
sister to the others.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 34

Vernacular languages
•Vernacular describes everyday
language, including informal
words, that is used by the people.
The vernacular is different from
literary or official language: it is
the way people really talk with
each other, like how families talk
at home.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 35

International auxiliary language
•Inter-language is the term for an idiolect
that has been developed by a learner of a
second language (or L2) who has not yet
reached proficiency. A learner's inter-
language preserves some features of
their first language (or L1), and can also
over generalize some L2 writing and
speaking rules. These two characteristics
of an inter-language result in the
system's unique linguistic organization.

3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 39

PLURILINGUALISM
•Is the ability of a person who has
competence in more than one language to
switch between multiple languages
depending on the situation for ease of
communication.
•Plurilingualspractice multiple languages
and are able to switch between them when
necessary without too much difficulty.
•Have had contact with languages not
native to them through educational
institutions,
MULTILINGUALISM/
BILINGUALISM
•Multilingualism is connected to
situations wherein multiple
languages exist side-by-side in a
society but are utilized
separately.
•In essence, multilingualism is
the coexisting knowledge of
separate languages
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 40

•The census of 1961 listed as many as 1,652
languages and dialects.Since most of these
languages are spoken by very few people, the
subsequent census regarded them as spurious
but the 8′h Schedule of the Constitution of
India recognizes 22 languages. These are
•(1) Assamese, (2) Bengali, (3) Gujarati, (4)
Hindi, (5) Kannada, (6) Kashmir, (7)
Konkani, (8) Malayalam, (9) Manipuri, (10)
Marathi, (11) Nepali, (12) Oriya, (13) Punjabi,
(14) Sanskrit, (15) Tamil, (16) Telugu, (17)
Urdu, and (18) Sindhi, (19) Santhali, (20)
Boro, (21) Maithili and (22) Dogri.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 41

•But four of these languages namely
Sanskrit, Kashmiri, Nepali and Sindhi are
not official languages in any State of the
Indian Union. But all these languages are
rich in literature Hindi in Devanagiri
scriptis recognized as the official
language of the Indian Union by the
Constitution. The second largest language,
Telugu, is spoken by about 60 million
people, mostly in Andhra Pradesh. Most of
the languages spoken in North India belong
to the Indo-Aryan family, while the
languages of the South namely Telugu,
Tamil, Malayalam and Kannadabelong to
the Dravidian family.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 42

•It is said that India is a “Veritable
tower of babel”. In the words of A.R.
Desai, “India presents a spectacle
of museum of tongues”. This
linguistic diversity notwithstanding,
there was always a sort of link
languages, though it has varied from
age to age. In ancient times, it was
Sanskrit, in medieval age it was
Arabic or Persian and in modern
times there are Hindi and English as
official languages.

The relationship between language
and thinking
•As our minds learn language, that language
creates a framework thatallows our mind to
form consistent and conscious thought.
Humans are amazingly self-reflective, thinking
about ourselves and our experiencesand our
very existence. Language allows our minds to
process this information in a consistent way
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 51

•Benjamin Lee Whorf's linguistic
determinism hypothesis suggested
that language determines thought, it is
in fact more accurate to saythat
language influences thought.
The relationship between language
and thinking
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 52

•Thinking, learning, and language are
interrelated. Theyuse language to
examine new experiences and
knowledge in relation to their prior
knowledge, experiences, and beliefs.
They make connections, anticipate
possibilities, reflect upon ideas, and
determine courses of action.
The relationship between language
and thinking
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 53

•Thinking is essential for learning. Thinking
isinextricably intertwined with learning. Teaching
thinking refers to teaching critical and creative
thinking skills and problem solving tasks. Critical
thinking incorporates reasoning, logical judgment,
metacognition, reflection, and mental process in
course of learning.
•The art of deciding how to use one's knowledge is
thinking. When we think, we are able to make
connections (personal or with others). Once these
connections are made, we create.

DEVELOPMENT OF CONCEPTUAL LITERACY
•3 Ways to Promote Conceptual Thinking.
•Using categorizing,
•Naming, and
•Sorting activities:
•In order to understand individual concepts,
students need to grapple with examples, non-
examples, and attributes of a concept. We can
ask students, “What is it like?” and invite them to
describe the key features.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 77

•Conceptual learning enablesthem to
draw from what they have learned
and use it to grasp new topics. It
helps students and teachers alike to
develop a deep understanding of
how the concepts inter-relate with
each other and build an exemplar
that will empower them throughout
their education and career.

relate with each other and build an

3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 79

meaning of conceptual learning
•Conceptual Learninginvolves students
engaged in quality learning experiences
based around key concepts and central
ideasrather than using the more traditional
method of focusing on learning on topics.
3/23/2022 Dr. C. BEULAH JAYARANI 80

•Concepts give shape and meaning to
individual facts, allowing students a far
deeper understanding of their
significance. ... With strong conceptual
teaching skills,talented teachers
create lessons in which everything
taught is meaningful. There are no
useless facts; rather, everything is
connected.
