Il presente lavoro intende essere un supporto per lo studio e l’esercitazione della Lingua Inglese soprattutto nelle sue particolarità lessicali e funzionali-comunicative. Lo strumento didattico qui proposto si propone innanzitutto di aiutare gli studenti ad ampliare il proprio vocabolario e ad esercitarlo correttamente in contesti scritti, quindi di fornire agli studenti stessi gli strumenti linguistici adeguati per l’approccio al testo scritto ed alla sua comprensione. Il volume si compone di nove Unità, organizzate tematicamente. Alcune di queste sono a loro volta suddivise in due parti, ognuna delle quali basata su argomenti fra loro affini o correlati. Le aree tematiche scelte sono fra quelle più familiari allo studente e riscontrabili nelle situazioni ed esperienze della quotidianità: relazioni interpersonali, familiari e sociali, le attività di ogni giorno, la scuola, lo sport, gli hobbies ed il tempo libero, il cibo, lo shopping, l’ambiente, i viaggi ed il turismo. Ogni Unità si articola in diverse sezioni, di difficoltà crescente, che intendono guidare lo studente nella progressiva acquisizione della padronanza della lingua nel suo passaggio dall’organizzazione frasale a quella testuale. All’interno di ogni singola Unità, la prima sezione è denominata “Vocabulary”: si tratta di un elenco di vocaboli e funzioni comunicative fondamentali, relativi al tema oggetto dell’Unità; tali vocaboli e funzioni sono presentati nella versione inglese e nella traduzione italiana. A completamento viene fornita la spiegazione di parole, locuzioni o aspetti lessicali e comunicativi, che possono essere di interesse particolare per gli studenti o che per gli stessi possono essere motivo di confusione La seconda sezione è denominata “Testing Vocabulary” e comprende esercizi che testano la capacità di usare correttamente all’interno di semplici frasi il vocabolario acquisito. La terza sezione prende in esame il meccanismo di formazione delle parole (Word Formation) attraverso l’ utilizzo di suffissi o prefissi. Tale sezione si correda di esercizi che richiedono allo studente il completamento di spazi bianchi (gaps) con parole create da un vocabolo-base fornito. La quarta sezione si concentra sulla comprensione testuale (Reading Comprehension). Dopo l’acquisizione del lessico di base, gli studenti possono così avvicinarsi al testo nella sua più articolata e complessa organizzazione. Gli esercizi scelti a tale riguardo comprendono testi con spazi bianchi da riempirsi con vocaboli forniti a scelta multipla (multiple choice cloze texts) e / o testi completi corredati da domande con opzioni di risposte sempre a scelta multipla. Alcune Unità contemplano in tale sezione esercizi che richiedono di trovare informazioni in un testo e di completare una griglia relativa con dati desunti dal brano proposto. In altri capitoli, invece, si trovano jumbled texts, brevi frasi da riorganizzare in modo tale da ottenere un brano coeso. Ogni Unità comprende inoltre una Grammar Revision. Lontano dal volere essere una sezione grammaticale esaustiva, tale parte intende essere un “richiamo” degli argomenti grammaticali prevalenti all’interno dell’Unità e, soprattutto, un invito alla revisione delle particolarità grammaticali stesse all’interno del testo di grammatica di riferimento adottato. Al termine di questa introduzione si precisa che le fonti bibliografiche da cui sono stati tratti brani e / o esercizi contenuti all’interno della seguente dispensa sono chiaramente indicate. Tale materiale, desunto da testi che spaziano dalla preparazione al PET a manuali adatti alla prepazione per il superamento del CAE, sono stati sottoposti ad una rielaborazione per conformarli alle esigenze dei destinatari della seguente pubblicazione. Come grammatica di riferimento si è preferito avvalersi del testo: Michael Swan, Practical English Usage, Oxford. Nato dall’esperienza didattica maturata in questi ultimi anni nell’ambito del SELDA e dal riscontro delle difficoltà che gli studenti si trovano ad affrontare nel loro approccio alla Lingua Inglese, il volume si propone ora auspicabilmente come ulteriore e valido strumento di studio e di approfondimento.

Communicating in English: Talk, Text, Technology looks at how people use spoken and written English to communicate in their everyday lives. Exploring the complex relationship between communication, technology and the English language, this book offers the reader practical insights into the analysis of speech and writing. A wide range of examples is provided, ranging from text messages and domestic quarrels to the works of Shakespeare and the words of Martin Luther King. This book takes a fresh look at established topics such as rhetoric, language acquisition, and professional communication, as well as covering exciting new fields such as everyday creativity, digital media, and the history of the book. Key theoretical concepts are introduced in an accessible manner, and the reader is given an in-depth understanding of English-language communication in its social and historical contexts. Drawing on the latest research and on the Open University’s experience of producing accessible and innovative texts, this book: • explains basic concepts and assumes no previous study of English studies, communication studies or linguistics • features a range of source material and commissioned readings to supplement chapters • includes contributions from leading experts in their fields, including Naomi Baron, Deborah Cameron, Guy Cook, Janet Holmes and Almut Koester • has a truly international scope, encompassing examples and case studies from Europe, North America, Africa, Asia, and Australasia • is illustrated in full colour and includes a comprehensive index. Communicating in English: Talk, Text, Technology is essential reading for all students of English language studies or communication studies.

The study of language has evolved dramatically over the last thirty years. We know more about language use and development than ever before. But many of these new ideas can challenge our notions of identity and our sense of uniqueness. Word of Mouth introduces these ideas and explores the power of words to shape and influence our lives. The book starts with a discussion of the evolution of language and then goes on to examine major areas in the field of language study: communication, media, social function, grammatical structure and psychology. Each chapter begins by considering our everyday encounter with language and then develops a view of the subject which fits with our experience as inhabitants of the 21st century. This fully revised and updated edition contains new material throughout, including more discussion of the possible origins of language, the impact of digital media and the study of politeness. With a fresh, engaging and jargon-free approach to the subject, the book is an enjoyable and intellectually exciting exploration of language. This new edition of Word of Mouth is the ideal introductory guide to language for both general readers and students.
