Author(s): Marinela Mladenova / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The aim of the paper is to present some not popular or unknown attempts to systemize and interpret part of the vocabulary of the Banat Bulgarian literary language. This archaic Bulgarian dialect was codified as literary microlanguage because of historical circumstances. In 1896 the first and the only Bulgarian-Hungarian thematic dictionary was published - Kis magyar-bolgar szotar bolgar nepiskolai tanulok szamara"– Manen madžarsći-balgarsći rečnić zarad balgarsći narudniškulsći škulare. It was designed for the Bulgarian pupils in the primary classes of the Hungarian schools; today this dictionary is a precious source about the condition and the vocabulary of the dialect. The emphasis in the paper is placed on the attempts after 1990 in the vocabulary sections of the newspaper „Naša glas“, in the prefaces of the issues of Banat popular fairy tales (Banatsći balgarsći prikazći) in the addendum to the book Banatsćija balgarsći dialekt i pismenus, part of the vocabulary of the present and archaic strata of the dialect to be collected and presented.

БЪЛГАРО-УНГАРСКИ КУЛТУРНИ ВЗАИМООТНОШЕНИЯ

Author(s): Monika Farkash Barathi / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The aim of this paper is to present the Bulgarian-Hungarian cultural relations throughout the centuries. To study the historical roots of the Bulgarian-Hungarian relations, we have to look to the distant past – to the ages before the foundation of the Bulgarian and Hungarian states when the two nations lived side by side and in good neighbourly relations for a very long time. This is reflected in the two nations’ legends and folk art, and also in certain linguistic facts. Important milestones in the history of the Bulgarian- Hungarian relations are John Hunyadi’s military campaigns and the Battle of Varna, the cultural activity of the Kossuth Emigration, as well as the migration of Bulgarian gardeners to Hungary.

IMPLICIT AND EXPLICIT L2 LEARNING – THE IMPACT OF CERTAIN FACTORS

Author(s): Mariana Gotseva / Language(s): English Publication Year: 0

Learners of L2 in foreign learning settings receive a different type of input, in terms of quantity and quality, and have a much more limited exposure to the target language. Having taken this into consideration, the research presented in this article attempted to analyse the outcomes of the L2 learning process which takes place in such conditions through the perspective of implicit /explicit learning and implicit / explicit knowledge dichotomy. It seems justified by the fact that the conditions in which L2 learning happens in a foreign language classroom do not resemble, even remotely, the naturalistic learning in immersion environment. The former presupposes mostly explicit learning and acquisition of explicit knowledge, which might or might not turn into implicit knowledge, depending on the length of learning and exposure to L2, whereas the latter presupposes implicit (L1 children-like) learning and acquisition of implicit knowledge, although it might be supplemented by explicit knowledge as a result of education in formal environment. The findings showed that the most significant factors which have an impact on learners’ performance on tests measuring implicit knowledge (TGJT and OIT) tend to be the length of exposure to L2 in environment where it is used as native and the starting age of learning, followed by length of learning and type of input, which were also found statistically significant. Learners who perform better on tests measuring implicit knowledge also demonstrate higher levels of proficiency, which points to the fact that an L2 is best learned through acquiring implicit knowledge.

WAS IST DAS ZIEL EINES FREMDSPRACHENUNTERRICHTS? UND WANN KANN MAN SAGEN, DASS MAN EINE FREMDSPRACHE BEHERRSCHT?

Author(s): Viera Lagerová / Language(s): German Publication Year: 0

In this paper, the author focuses mainly on foreign language teaching and its objectives, which serve not only the mediation of the basics of a foreign language, but it also has an educational mission. It is therefore appropriate that in foreign language teaching tasks are given that take into account not only cognitive but also social, emotional and motivational aspects of acquiring a foreign language involved extensively in the development of key competencies of pupils. General competences are those which are characteristic of the language, but which are necessary for the different activities as e.g. to purposely gain new knowledge and skills, to understand the intention of the specified task, to use the acquired language actively and frequently, to supplement their knowledge and develop language skills, to interconnect them with the knowledge, to systematize them and use for its further development and real life, to evaluate their progress critically, to receive feedback and be aware of the possibility of their development, to use available materials for self-study and so on.

The Body of God : Word and Image in Ancient Egypt. Lectures Delivered at New Bulgarian University

Author(s): Sergei Ignatov / Language(s): English

The Egyptian state is the living body of God, i.e. of the king. This is the presumption of this book. The Egyptian state is the living body of God, i.e. of the king. This is the presumption of this book. The founder of Egyptology, Jean-Francois Champollion, once wrote: “In such inquiries one can progress with the help of facts only, and monuments are the only reliable facts... ” This is perhaps the best definition of Egyptological studies: patient and conscientious study of the monuments of ancient Egypt. The monuments of ancient Egyptian culture are located primarily in the Nile valley. The evidence of Egyptian penetration far south into ancient Nubia, ancient Syria, Phoenicia and Palestine to the east, imported Egyptian artifacts in the eastern Mediterranean lands, are also of interest to Egyptology. ...

Jednostki języka w systemie i w tekście 2

Author(s): / Language(s): Russian,Polish

The set of problems engaged in the texts which are presented in the monograph reflects the multifariousness of research perspectives in modern Slavic linguistics with reference to both traditional and novel methodological approaches. The authors’ focus has to do with the problems of the description of the units of the Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Czech and Croatian languages at the particular levels of these languages. The linguistic units are examined not only as elements of a system but also as components (which are varied genre-wise) of early and modern texts. Apart from the analyses which draw from structuralist traditions there are also ones in which linguistic phenomena are considered in a broad social-political-cultural context. The publication is a collection of pieces which are devoted both to one language as well as comparative studies: Polish-Russian, Polish-Czech, Polish-Croatian, Russian-Czech ones. There are also texts which are devoted to the problems of translatology. The broad range of problems which are engaged by the authors from Poland and beyond enables the reader to familiarise himself or herself with the areas and trends of work conducted by the particular academic centres. We hope that it will also become a source of inspiration for further research endeavours.

Teaching Romanian grammar for international students it is known to be a real challenge. They have to cope with different rules compared to their native tongues, most of the time very different of Neo-Latin languages, to understand that the rules they have to learn do not help them in particular cases and to practise a lot to be able to face the requirements of the use of language.

The aim of the paper is to present some teaching methods and exercises that are used within the Preparatory year to avoid regular or particular errors.

LITERATURA ROMÂNĂ DIN VOIVODINA – INSTRUMENT DE FORMARE IDENTITARĂ PRIN EDUCAȚIE

Author(s): Virginia Popović,Brânduşa Juica / Language(s): Romanian Publication Year: 0

Romanian literature from Voivodina and education among the Romanian minority play a vital role in preserving the cultural and linguistic identity of the community. Literature captures the history, traditions, and values of Romanians in this area, maintaining a deep connection to their roots. Romanian schools in Voivodina actively promote Romanian literature by integrating it into the educational process through various methods. School celebrations and recitations are key moments where primary and secondary school students develop their expressive skills and learn to appreciate the cultural and literary values of their community. Additionally, textbooks are essential tools in this effort, including Romanian literary texts that contribute to the formation of students' linguistic and cultural identity. By incorporating these works into the curricula, a school keeps the literary tradition alive and ensure the transmission of Romanian cultural values to new generations. In this paper, we aim to conduct a detailed analysis of the educational plans and curricula developed by Romanian language teachers for students in Voivodina, as published on the Ministry of Education's website. We will examine how Romanian literature from Voivodina is included in school textbooks, focusing on an axiological analysis of the selected texts proposed in the curriculum. We will also propose criteria for selecting literary texts by Voivodina's writers to promote a more consistent presence of canonical Romanian literature in school textbooks in this region. Therefore, this paper will help improve educational content and enhance the cultural identity of Romanian students in Voivodina.

Социолингвистични аспекти на изследването на българските говори в Бесарабия

Author(s): Olga Novak / Language(s): Bulgarian Publication Year: 0

The aim of the present study is to outline several main features of the contemporary linguistic situation in a polyethnic, respectively, multilingual and multicultural region of southern Ukraine – Budzhak, where Bulgarian dialects are preserved, function and continue to develop. The research of the current state of the language of the Bulgarian minority in Bessarabia from a sociolinguistic aspect can show to what level its national identity stays intact and also this study could be helpful in the formation of the language policy by Bulgaria and Ukraine for the Bessarabian Bulgarians. The material allows us to conclude that the systematic influence of the Ukrainian and Bulgarian literary languages on the Bulgarian Bessarabian dialects is almost non-existent today. For official communication Ukrainian is used exclusively, however, in informal written communication and in the function of lingua franca only Russian prevails as a written language, which is fluently spoken by the inhabitants of the region.
