Abstract

This study was undertaken to explore the ways EFL teachers used translanguaging between English and Vietnamese in their classes at a university context. Specifically, it aimed to document the alignment of translanguaging theory with classroom evidence in response to calls for research in this direction. A mixed methods design was adopted to conduct the study. Data were collected from two sources: recorded classroom observations in the natural EFL classes in Vietnam and stimulated recall interviews. The stimulated recall interviews with EFL teachers were carried out when the recording had been completed and extracts of the teachers’ translanguaging reviewed. The extracts indicate that during their English teaching, the EFL teachers employed translanguaging frequently to manage classroom activities, provide emotional support, and encourage students’ participation. Besides, the stimulated recall interviews reveal that the teachers translanguaged purposefully to scaffold students with English vocabulary and grammar. They also switched between the two languages to create humor and foster a friendly classroom environment to make students feel comfortable during learning. Their use of translanguaging was found to facilitate students’ metalinguistic awareness and learning new concepts in the English lessons. Overall, the findings from both sources complement each other, revealing the purposeful translanguaging of the teachers for both teaching and managing classes. The study’s findings contribute to supporting intentional translanguaging in context-sensitive language instruction. In addition, the results provide practical implications for EFL teachers to employ translanguaging to assist students in their English learning and more importantly to teach more effectively. The findings also suggest implications for policies embracing the use of L1 intentionally when needed by both EFL teachers and students.

Abstract

This paper explores museum artifacts from the Timurid period as invaluable linguistic archives, moving beyond traditional historical and artistic interpretations to unveil hidden narratives about past societies. It argues that the linguistic data embedded in inscriptions, manuscripts, coins, and architectural texts offer profound insights into language use, communication practices, and cultural nuances of the Timurid Empire. This paper demonstrates, based on detailed linguistic analysis of a selection of artifacts, that they served as an active repository that both conveyed political power, religious beliefs, kinship systems, and social life. For instance, Persian inscriptions on jugs and ewers underscore artistic expression and imperial authority, while Arabic inscriptions on finger-ring seals and coins highlight religious piety and political legitimacy, blending Mongol traditions with Islamic values. Manuscripts and paintings further illustrate Persian as the dominant literary language and the mechanisms of intellectual and cultural exchange. The article also highlights some issues that can be challenging for linguists when collecting data from museum artefacts, such as text fragmentation and language opacity, particularly in a multilingual environment. To overcome these challenges, this review also proposes methodological approaches, including comparative linguistics, digital epigraphy, and contextual study, to address these challenges. With the robust technology and multidimensional approach, some challenges can be overcome and valuable resources can be provided for further linguistic analysis. This cross-disciplinary initiative transforms objects as vibrant forms of knowing through which one can access a fuller account of the workings of language as an intellectual technology in building and shaping lived experience, values, and power relations in Timurid society, providing productive insights into the ways in which language acts upon culture to advance or undermine social cohesion.

Abstract

This study examines how the distinct linguistic characteristics and narrative structures of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey contribute to their contrasting portrayals of heroism, with a particular focus on the ethical dimensions of their protagonists. Employing a qualitative descriptive approach, the research utilizes content analysis guided by Peirce’s semiotic theory to decode the layers of meaning embedded in the epics. Primary data consists of Homer’s Iliad and Odyssey in their original Ancient Greek and English translations, supplemented by scholarly commentaries. Specific episodes featuring Achilles and Odysseus were selected and analyzed for key linguistic elements, including diction, epithets, metaphors, and dialogue. The analysis reveals that heroism is conveyed through distinct semiotic patterns across six categories: Heroic Strength and Physicality, Divine Influence and Fate, The Heroic Journey and Struggle, Heroism and Sacrifice, and Moral and Ethical Dimensions, alongside Family and Loyalty. For instance, Achilles’ heroism is often indexed by “swift-footed” and “great-hearted” epithets, emphasizing physical prowess and emotional depth, while Odysseus’ is marked by “wily” and strategic restraint, highlighting intellectual and moral fortitude. The results underscore that Homeric heroism transcends martial prowess, deeply integrating moral decisions, emotional struggles, and familial loyalty as central to heroic identity. These findings challenge simplistic interpretations of Greek heroism, suggesting it encompasses an internal journey of moral growth, loyalty, and personal sacrifice, rather than solely a quest for glory through battle. The study highlights the crucial role of moral responsibility, emotional resilience, and family unity in shaping heroic actions and identities, providing a more nuanced and relatable perspective on heroism for contemporary readers.
