thank you all for the reply, but I am late. can you suggest me for more details regarding how spiritual intelligence and practical strategies help in second language acquisition?

Please, don't tantalize yourself. As long as you can communicate both orally and in writing in another language and you are understood, the concept of 'native speaker's ability' carries a linguistic bias and specific ideology, where only 'native speakers' are the best of a given language ... and this is WRONG in a globalized (scientific) world where everyone tries to communicate his/her ideas and research.

Elements of a good summary:

Your methodology⅚ for developing dynamic, cost-aware resource allocation algorithms in multi-cloud environments is comprehensive, yet there are areas for refinement. Consider integrating hybrid optimization models to balance solution quality and computational efficiency, and ensure compatibility with diverse cloud platforms through standardization protocols. Addressing scalability with load balancing and distributed computing, as well as embedding security measures, is crucial. Challenges such as data integration complexities, latency in real-time processing, dynamic pricing models, vendor lock-in, and resource heterogeneity must be anticipated. Additional evaluation metrics, including execution time, cost savings, utilization efficiency, scalability performance, and user satisfaction, will provide a more robust assessment of your approach's effectiveness.

If you are using or adapting a method used in another paper that has been peer-reviewed, it is usually OK to just reference that paper.

If your methods have never been peer-reviewed, then it may be necessary to do a pilot study

What’s your research question and purpose? All mixed methods research follows two typologies: either merging two results or using one result to inform the next. other concerns are samples and timing. Tell everyone more about your purpose and methodologies.

Assisted writing by AI has been getting a lot of attention in recent years for several reasons:

However, there are also concerns about the overreliance on these tools, especially regarding their dependence for tasks that could benefit more from human creativity and sensitivity. Additionally, ethical issues such as authorship attribution and data privacy are relevant when it comes to AI-assisted writing.

Dear Rehan, I suggest you divide your overall hypothesis (1) into their separate, underlying, smaller hypotheses (1.1 speaking, 1.2 writing etc.). By doing so, you can accept, say, 1.1 to 1.3, but will reject 1.4 listening. This will maintain your overall hypothesis and give your paper a clear, logical structure.

Wenger's three modes of belonging (Engagement, Imagination, and Alignment) provide a framework for understanding how individuals develop their sense of belonging and identity within a community of practice. While Wenger's work may not provide detailed instructions on how these constructs specifically apply to language teacher identity, one can explore possible connections and implications.

1. Engagement:

- In the context of language teacher identity, engagement could refer to the active involvement and participation of teachers in their professional communities. This involvement may include attending conferences, joining professional organizations, participating in professional development activities, and collaborating with colleagues.

- By engaging with other language teachers, educators can exchange ideas, share experiences, and develop a collective understanding of language teaching practices. This engagement can contribute to the formation and development of their language teacher identity.

2. Imagination:

- Imagination, as described by Wenger, involves the ability to envision and explore possibilities beyond the immediate context. In the context of language teacher identity, imagination could relate to teachers' ability to envision themselves in various roles, contexts, and teaching approaches.

- Language teachers can exercise their imagination by reflecting on their teaching practices, exploring different pedagogical approaches, and considering how they can adapt and innovate in response to the needs of their students and the changing landscape of language education.

3. Alignment:

- Alignment, in Wenger's framework, refers to the shared values, goals, and practices that unite members of a community of practice. In the context of language teacher identity, alignment can be seen as the process of teachers aligning their beliefs, values, and teaching practices with the broader goals and expectations of the language teaching profession.

- Language teachers may align their teaching practices with established pedagogical principles and theories, align their goals with institutional or curricular requirements, and align their values with the ethical considerations and responsibilities of being a language teacher.

Hello, I also curious to know about corpora in the sketch engine. I think we can add data from our language to that machine. If other persons who create the data on that machine by using our language, we can use the data to make comparisons with other languages.

hi, I would like to thank you very much for your distinguished contributions, which helped me to progress well in my research axes, in this case language sciences. Sincerely yours.

SECOND LANGUAGE LEARNING: AN INFORMATION-PROCESSING PERSPECTIVE†

Barry McLaughlin, Tammi Rossman, Beverly McLeod

First published: June 1983

In short, the current state of the art in Second Language Acquisition (SLA) involves studying cognitive processes, input and interaction, individual differences, sociocultural factors, technology's role, and the intersection of neurolinguistics with SLA. Advances in these areas have contributed to a deeper understanding of how individuals acquire a second language. However, it's important to note that SLA research is an evolving field, and new discoveries continue to shape our understanding of language learning.

Dear Zahra,

what makes you think it is not possible with SLA/PLD printers? Both tough and flex resins are readily available as commercial products, or you can design your own monomer mixture.

Our latest study, for instance, compares behavior of carbon fillers in tough (Young's modulus of 1.25 GPa without post-curing, marked as "aromatic") and flex (140 MPa, marked as "non-aromatic") resins.

Thank you very much for the response, Petr. I appreciate it.

Dear Darrel Ocampo and Andreas Wirag , thank you for your comments. I imagine learners who possess productive explicit knowledge are able to both use a certain grammar correctly and explain why that grammar use is correct/incorrect in certain sentences. On the other hand, those who possess productive implicit knowledge, for instance, would be able to use a certain grammar correctly, but unable to explicitly articulate/explain why. One simple example would be the use of article in English: some people can correctly use a/an/the according to the context and sentence and further explain why, while others can also use that, but can't explain why. I hope my wording is understandable.

I totally agree with Mr Ahmad Farid. Yet, acquisition and learning are two different concepts. In contexts like the Middle East where L2 learners are deprived of sufficient exposure to the target language, you cannot expect acquisition to take place or be established. It is just learning! However, thanks to the development of ubiquitous technology, we could confess that L2 learners are bestowed with more exposure in recent years, which may in turn provide a suitable setting for acquisition to take place in upcoming years.

Hi Kouider Makhlouf

No, the theories of First Language Acquisition are not the same as those of Second Language Acquisition. While there are some similarities between the two processes, such as the importance of exposure to language input and the role of cognitive processing, the differences in context and learner characteristics mean that the theories of L1A and L2A are not the same.

I recommend these two very important references:

You can follow this article to get idea on various SLA 3D printer (proprietary names) and their applications in pharmaceuticals.

The factors are diverse and include political, social, demographic, economic, cultural, linguistic, psychological and institutional support factors. They are demonstrated in this article

Ahmed Abrar if you can control the temperature of the microwave oven it will work better, like using PWM pulses. This may require some changes in normal household microwave oven. During my experiments with microwave oven, I noticed that if I keep heating the PDMS in the microwave oven for more than 1 mint, it was creating problem. You can test 30 secs heating, like heat and give it sometime to cool down and heat again.

For second part of your question, No I did not use any other type of oven.

Dear Samaher, I did not know that "language learning mindset" was an established term (or, rather, an established learner variable) in SLA research at all. I agree with Ting He that it sounds like a collection of other learner features, such as their L2 aptitude, L2 motivation, or L2 competence. I suppose that "self-efficacy" for L2 learning would be a student's belief in their capacity to act in the ways necessary to learn the L2. In any case, you may want to look up both terms in any available SLA Handbook's index to find more clear-cut definitions.

Hi, Lieke!

Regarding your question about a quick Spanish placement test, I recommend that you search the following link: https://www.tiatula.com/spanish-placement-tests/

Best luck!

Dear Ullah, what a fascinating research question with regard to how particular learner variables might affect L2 learning outcomes (although this specific variable cannot be changed by instruction itself)! I would be surprised if no one has looked into this question more systematically yet. I have frequently observed that gender differences are reported in the results sections of L2 learner studies "as a side observation", even if the research topic itself was not gender differences. I also happen to know that FLA is consistently higher among female students. Overall, I would expect L2 learning outcomes in students to be mediated by differences in other variables (FLA, motivation, grit, etc.) that show different non-overlapping distributions between genders.

In my mind, a quite straightforward answer would be this: The choice of your scale(s), whether they have originally been developed in Psychology, SLA or any other field of Educational Sciences, depends on the theory you are examining. If your theory is about emotions in general, you should use scales that measure emotions in general (e.g., from Psychology). If your theory is about emotions that are specific to L2 learning (e.g., FLA), you ought to use an FLA scale (e.g., from SLA). Where these scales come from originally is secondary. Their choice really depends on what are examining, or, in other words, your research question(s).

Dear Samaher, your research would need to start from the research question(s) that you want to answer - and not from the research instruments you are using. The instrument itself is only a way to gather data that can help you to answer your question(s). So the simplest idea to help you would be to turn your research back on its feet: Start with want you want to find out about (which usually derives from what is already know/not yet known in your area of research) - and only then pick the scales that are appropriate to measure the student characteristics that you are interested in.

Noticing is the first step towards learning (Richard Schmidt)! It is needed in interaction: we need to notice weaknesses in the input and output. When noticing them we can learn and try to overcome them!

Dear Thomas R Zentall sir,

If you are not the first author, then I think you can only remove it from your profile but you can not remove it from researchgate database.

I agree with all the suggestions given by the research gate members.

Dear Carlo: I beleive you have a phase separation problem. The refractive indexes of PEG and PEGDA are 1.4339 and 1.463, respectively. After the 3D printing process, small segregates of PEG are formed. These have to be larger than 300 nm, in order to cause light dispersion, that is milky appeareance.

Paradigms provide a holistic view that guides our research. It depends upon the perception of the researcher about how he prefers to view the reality (ontology), the nature of the knowledge that is to be gained (epistemology) and the systematic methods to be used to acquire that knowledge (methodology).

A positivist thinks that the truth out there is only one and it can be observed and studied (typical quantitative research). A post-positivist still think that there is only one truth, but it can never be completely observed. Therefore, it allows flexible methodological options to allow more interaction between the researcher and subjects through approaches such as survey research, observation, interviews, etc. (a mixed-method approach). On the other hand, a constructivist thinks that social interactions within a community, between people, and the environment are vital to acquire the knowledge that they are looking for and hence utilizes pure qualitative research approaches.

Now, the big question about which one to choose. It depends upon the research question, the nature of knowledge that you are looking for, and the characteristics of the participants that you are going to deal with.

Truly speaking this kind of test does not exist in our Country, neither in our Universities. Note that we are in a Portuguese speaking Country. Apart from Portuguese which is the official language, our Country tries to promote other foreign languages such us English, French and Chinese(Mandarin). Thanks

Thank you, Morteza.

Please can you provide me information about the paper? Any link? If not the title of the paper? I appreciate it if you could guide me to any more papers.

Thank you all for your feedback. We published a paper covering the while performance metrics in cloud, fog and edge computing.

As linguistics is a systematic study of how language is produced in the form of meaningful structures to perform certain functions, and how these structures are comprehended to be more specific. So, there is no doubt that language studies constitute a very important field of study, because no person can live a normal life without language. It is a sign of the honor that Allah has given to human beings, to be distinctive among other creatures. And as a tool for transferring and receiving ideas from a person to another for the sake of communication.

hello sir

the accuracy we can't see or expect with all kinds of learners bcoz there are two types of learners.

Sorry for the typo, it's Irgacure 819.

I have just tried it with PEG 250, so don't know if it actually works with other polymers as well. As for the thermally stable UV resins, you might have a look at this paper

You can post cure at high temperatures for a long time and it will eliminate that silicone curing inhibitor, likely the easier option than coating with other materials or oxygen plasma if you don't have that, that may change the dimensions of your channels. Research the highest temp the printed material will go and leave it at that over the weekend.

Racism, as any other from of discrimination like untouchability or other marginalization invariably affects language acquisition. In case of academic language acquisition like teaching English as second language, there is an observed and marked indications that the degree of language learning is not the same as the 'majority ' or 'mainstream ' learners.

I think it could be related to the need of an adult student, with some future employment opportunity in a country of a different language than the one of their origin. This experience could be integrated through student exchange programs between institutions that collaborate in making this type of link.

Follow.

I think miscommunication originally based on the indivual differences among those learners.Some are at a high level of language development mastering all the fundamental skills fully while on the other hand some are so poor and inexperienced concerning the basics of lang.

please check:

Yes.personalities have an important role in language acquisition. in my opinion each personality needs an especial learning style.

Cognitive linguistics - cognitive semantics in particular - consider language as intrinsically linked to human cognitive processes, and therefore, not an autonomous cognitive faculty. All linguistic expressions are viewed as symbolic units used for communicative purposes. Cognitive linguistics advocates for the intricate relationship between cross-linguistic influence and the degree of similarity and difference between a learners first and second language.

I strongly suggest the "Handbook of Cognitive Linguistics and Second Language Acquisition", edited by Peter Robinson (Aoyama Gakuin University, Japan), and Nick Ellis (University of Michigan, USA), first published by Routledge in 2008 in New York and UK simultaneously.

I can get back to you with more information regarding cognitive models and teaching strategies, should you be interested.

Interesting question! Here are my thoughts (apologies if I misunderstood what you are after).

To begin with the obvious, ‘sociolinguistic competence’ should encompass something more than linguistic competence, i.e. mainstream accounts on grammatical skills, etc. ‘Something more’ here means social aspects within and beyond the speaking subject. This could be, for example, the social skill of knowing what to do with linguistic skills; that is, the speaking subject’s ability to make use of the resources s/he has acquired, in ways which others will find socially acceptable. I would recommend looking into the work of Hymes and Bourdieu, as they were among the first to break with purely linguistic accounts, so as to additionally account for the social. A lot of good research has later come out of that, I think. In my view, ‘pragmatic competence’, ’communicative competence’, and the like, are all sociolinguistic competences. It is thus a wide field of inquiry.

You should look at the correlation matrix for the independent variables. Then , if the variables are highly correlated,select the one which is the most clinically relevant or one which is of scientific interest as a potential independent risk factor (from previous studies). If you are looking to develop a prediction model you may wish to include as the representative of the correlated variables the one which is most easily or economically obtainable in any given hospital or field  situation . I assume from your question that this is straight multiple linear regression with just  AKI as the one dependent variable. Multivariate regression strictly refers to a more complex model with multiple dependent variables as well.

I would suspect, as I think you do, that you will find affective strategies for both content and language. Perhaps then, your task could be to include the relevant literature from both fields with a view to 'closing the gap' by synthesising them for an 'emerging' field of EMI research. That doesn't, I'm afraid, lighten you workload, but ...

Here is someone else using a self-assessment instrument that might be helpful to you - https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/servantslead

A growing number of studies, including Mkhelif’s which is to come, have recently provided evidence indicative of an important role of frequency in the acquisition of EFL vocabulary items.

Thanks for your reply! It looks like they were looking for a justification for either using or discarding the adjusted measures. As the majority of L1 and L2 fluency measures were weakly correlated, and my participants scored lower on proficiency tests than expected (L1 and L2 are usually more strongly related for upper intermediate/high proficiency), I think I can justify not using L1-adjusted measures for the remainder of the study/research questions related to individual differences.

Relevant corpora can be made use of, but is that enough?

Language acquisition is a multi-factorial, multi-dimensional and multi-stratal phenomenon. If you focus on one aspect, the approach is at the expense of excluding other aspects. A big question as is asked entails a vast reply, the whole scholars in the universe are trying to answer just a portion of what is considered as the most complicated faculty of human species_language. Don't dismay. Btw, plasticity is sth that belongs to pre-puberty. After puberty it is claimed that the plasticity vanishes. Man is stuck in a hard shell rather than a flexible all-absorbing ability. They can master lexico-grammar and also discoursal aspects yet for people after puberty acquiring native-like pronunciation is claimed to be very hard, out of reach or impossible. Notions and factors such as the individual psychology, neurology, physiology, internal motivation; social , cultural, historical factors; power distribution; class, age, gender, ethnicity; natural vs classroom environment, authenticity real life example vs artificial classroom exposure, learning styles and learning strategies; input, intake, and output and still a longer list of factors all have an impact on SLA. We are all on the route to know just part of the system or mechanism , yet there is no conclusive answer. We can easily pose a very short question such as "What is the treatment for cancer?" but the answer is neither conclusive, nor utterable. It involves a huge pile of information concerning numerous factors inspected through various perspectives, "signifying nothing." Yet, as human beings we try to quench our curiosity. In this activity, we are fortunate enough to have a collective curiosity; that is, all the thinkers in applied linguistics collectively try to find a way to better understand SLA. From antiquity, Plato, and Aristotle , to F Saussure, Chomsky, Hymes, Halliday, Gass, Ellis, and many other important scholars they have tried to grasp some aspect of SLA and expand human knowledge on the quest for language learning /acquisition. ... you see, this is not yet finished.

Best wishes. Dr Babak Majidzadeh (PhD)

Notably, the pragmatic aspects of language use can be actualized by the anguage contexts. To this end, problem solving tasks fostering critical thinking and collaborative work such as discourse completion , role play, and consciousness raising activities engaging the learners in group work can make a difference.

Hakan Ringbom's (2007) Cross-linguistic Similarity in Foreign Language Learning is devoted to this issue. He mentions that the degree of congruence between the systems determines how much facilitation there will be in language learning.

I'm also interested in this.

Sabri Thabit Saleh Ahmed Thanks for your participation in my discussion and your nice answer. In my opinion, the authors of the mentioned book intended to mention that teaching the knowledge of a language with the aim of reaching to the skill in the second step is not a successful path. Therefore, it seems that it might be better to change the initiation point to the skill side.

If you are doing a contrastive research on linguistic transfer (English-Spanish), I would recommend typical translation tasks. You will definitely have a large percentage of interference errors, but it is the only (according to my experience) indicator of learnability of structures. I wouldn't go for any communicative-type tasks. Interesting reasearch!

As far as empirical and experimental investigation is concerned, Kövecses (2017) undertakes highly focused research on this field of study, which represents an important landmark in the field of Applied Linguistics, The lexical vs. the corpus-based method in the study of metaphors. In doing so, this author does foreground and compare the lexical approach with the corpus-linguistic one by using the emotion concept of Surprise for the purpose of comparison. In this sense, I believe that this methodology entails the strongest and greatest value-laden empirical evidence and analysis levels to support that the two methods complement each other, albeit with some differences, as he points out:

“It makes sense to suggest that we can achieve best results in finding metaphors for SURPRISE if we use the lexical and corpus-linguistic approaches together. This is a solution in the spirit of Kövecses (2011). The use of the lexical approach can overcome some of the weaknesses of the corpus-linguistic one: it can provide us with a schematic prototype of the category, it can give us a number of synonyms that may function as metaphors, it can identify idiomatic expressions that do not contain the term surprise, and it can help us reveal major concept-specific, as well as some schematic metaphors of SURPRISE. On the other hand, with the help of the corpus-linguistic approach we can identify the schematic (and to some extent, also the concept specific) metaphors of SURPRISE, the entire range of conventionalized and non-conventionalized metaphorical expressions, and both the types and tokens of the figurative expressions associated with SURPRISE.”

In view of that, I believe that other several interesting methods dealing with figurative language may be related to his original approach:

1) Willis (1990) emphasizes the importance of an effective lexical approach insofar as “communicative methodology is holistic in that it relies on the ability of learners to abstract from the language to which they are exposed, in order to recreate a picture of the target language. Virtually all coursebooks rely on a linguistic syllabus, which presents the learner with a series of linguistic items.”

2) Mac Cormac (1985) presents an original and unified “cognitive theory of metaphor using philosophical arguments, which draw upon evidence from psychological experiments and theories. In developing the theory, Mac Cormac makes much-needed connections between theories of metaphor and more orthodox analytic philosophy of meaning, including discussions of speech acts and the logic of fuzzy sets. This semantically theory of explanation is then shown to be compatible with contemporary psychological theories of memory.”

3) Gibbs (2017) examines key issues relating to “how conceptual metaphors underlie significant aspects of language, thought, cultural, and expressive action. The study of metaphor is now firmly established as a central topic within cognitive science and the humanities. We marvel at the creative dexterity of gifted speakers and writers for their special talents in both thinking about certain ideas in new ways, and communicating these thoughts in vivid, poetic forms. Yet metaphors may not only be special communicative devices, but a fundamental part of everyday cognition in the form of conceptual metaphors. “

The term Translanguaging is borrowed from Colin Baker’s (2001) English translation

(initially translinguifying) of Cen Williams’ (1994) term trawsieithu. William created the Welsh term to describe a bilingual phenomenon he observed in schools in Wales. A pedagogical practice in which Welsh students receive information through the medium of one language (e. g., English) and give information through the medium of a different language (e. g., Welsh). The practice occurs between the student and the teacher or vice versa. Williams argued that it assists to maximise the learner’s bilingual ability in learning. At the point, Williams made it very clear that Translanguaging is not an object but a practice and a process. It serves as a linguistic practice that involves different languages and language varieties. But more importantly, it is a process of knowledge construction the students make use of but goes beyond individual languages (1996). It concerns effective communications, semantic function rather than form, cognitive activity, as well as language production (Lewis et al. 2012a, Lewis et al. 2012b).

But equally important in Williams’ original conceptualization is the idea that Translanguaging is not simply a process that goes between languages (cf. code switching, crossing), but beyond languages, i. e., transcending. So it challenges the conventional understanding of language boundaries between the culturally and politically labelled languages (e. g., English, Chinese). With its emphasis on meaning

making and knowledge construction, it also challenges the boundaries between language and other cognitive systems as separately encapsulated systems or modules (cf. the Modularity of Mind hypothesis; e. g., Fodor 1983). It is these two aspects of the concept of Translanguaging that have been developed further in recent years and it is also these aspects that are particularly relevant to the present discussion of New Chinglish.

Good suggestions have already been made. I would like to add for a teacher to work from a multilingual point of view. Include all languages that the pupils know in that particular classroom when you are working on a topic. The Dutch/Frisian project '3M: Meer kans met Meertaligheid' for example shows how you can work with multiple languages simultaneously and how you can effectively use cognates to show similarities between languages. Make use of the knowledge that pupils already have on other languages. The Facebook page might spark some inspiration: https://www.facebook.com/3MProject/ Another research project is Holi-Frysk: https://www.mercator-research.eu/en/projects/holi-frysk/ An international platform you can join with the class is www.MySchoolsNetwork.com that connects learners from all around the world. Everyone can share their projects and results. These are only a few extra suggestions. There are many more different projects and approaches.

dear Vinh T. Nguyen ,Jeffrey Stewart Morrow ,Aida Mohammad Ali Bakeer

i really appreciate to all your respond and suggestions. Am doing in depth reading regarding this matter. thank you again for the reply.

The members of one culture do things in special patterned ways for specific culturally shared and understood meanings . I think the position
