Book Description
The Dictionary of Louisiana French (DLF) provides the richest inventory of French vocabulary in Louisiana and reflects precisely the speech of the period from 1930 to the present. This dictionary describes the current usage of French-speaking peoples in the five broad regions of South Louisiana: the coastal marshes, the banks of the Mississippi River, the central area, the north, and the western prairie. Data were collected during interviews from at least five persons in each of twenty-four areas in these regions. In addition to the data collected from fieldwork, the dictionary contains material compiled from existing lexical inventories, from texts published after 1930, and from archival recordings. The new authoritative resource, the DLF not only contains the largest number of words and expressions but also provides the most complete information available for each entry. Entries include the word in the conventional French spelling, the pronunciation (including attested variants), the part of speech classification, the English equivalent, and the word's use in common phrases. The DLF features a wealth of illustrative examples derived from fieldwork and textual sources and identification of the parish where the entry was collected or the source from which it was compiled. An English-to-Louisiana French index enables readers to find out how particular notions would be expressed in la Louisiane .

Dialogue Analysis: Units, relations and strategies beyond the sentence
Author: Edda Weigand
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter
ISBN: 3110949873
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
The topic of this volume was discussed at a Round Table of the International Association for Dialogue Analysis (IADA) at the University of Bologna in March 1995. The Round Table was intended to make a scientific contribution in honour of the president's 65th birthday. The topic refers on the one hand to the central problem of 'Dialogue Analysis' which is to discover a new, communicatively functioning unit after having left behind the unit of the sentence which can be considered the unit par excellence of structural linguistics. On the other hand, it includes the manifold units, relations, and strategies, i.e. the specific problems of dialogue analysis.

Book Description
Neuf dieux gouvernaient jadis le monde, jusqu'à ce qu'une ultime trahison ne les mène à leur perte. Depuis, le monde se meurt et seul le retour des Dieux disparus pourra le sauver. Il y a de cela neuf cents ans, les Dragons des Trois Tempêtes, divinités du Chaos, tentèrent d'anéantir l'archipel de la Kundou. La seule solution pour sauver le pays fut de s'opposer aux Dragons, de les terrasser et de s'emparer de leurs pouvoirs. Depuis, cette puissance confère à la famille royale le droit de suzeraineté. Mais cette magie a un terrible prix, et le prince Nankyokukai est bien décidé à être le dernier à devoir le payer... même si pour cela il doit renoncer à tout espoir d'être avec l'homme qu'il a attendu toute sa vie.
