Communicative language teaching
Communicative language teaching (CLT), or the communicative approach (CA) , is an approach to language teaching that emphasizes interaction as both the means and the ultimate goal of study. Learners in environments using communication to learn and practice the target language by interactions with one another and the instructor, the study of "authentic texts" (those written in the target language for purposes other than language learning), and the use of the language both in class and outside of class.
Direct method (education)
The direct method of teaching, which is sometimes called the natural method, and is often (but not exclusively) used in teaching foreign languages, refrains from using the learners' native language and uses only the target language. It was established in England around 1900 and contrasts with the grammar–translation method and other traditional approaches, as well as with C.J. Dodson's bilingual method. It was adopted by key international language schools such as Berlitz, Alliance Française and Inlingua in the 1970s and many of the language departments of the Foreign Service Institute of the U.
Geographical distribution of Russian speakers
This article details the geographical distribution of Russian-speakers. After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, the status of the Russian language often became a matter of controversy. Some Post-Soviet states adopted policies of derussification aimed at reversing former trends of Russification, while Belarus under Alexander Lukashenko and the Russian Federation under Vladimir Putin reintroduced Russification policies in the 1990s and 2000s, respectively.
Attrition des langues
En linguistique, l'attrition est définie comme la perte non pathologique d'une partie ou la totalité d'une langue chez un bilingue. L'attrition des langues est un phénomène indépendant de la conversion linguistique ou de « l'extinction des langues » (Linguicide), ces derniers par ailleurs susceptibles d'affecter les communautés bilingues, mais à travers plusieurs générations. L'attrition, en revanche, renvoie à la perte d'une langue chez l'individu et s'observe par conséquent au niveau d'une seule génération.
Multi-competence
Multi-competence is a concept in second language acquisition formulated by Vivian Cook that refers to the knowledge of more than one language in one person's mind. From the multicompetence perspective, the different languages a person speaks are seen as one connected system, rather than each language being a separate system. People who speak a second language are seen as unique multilingual individuals, rather than people who have merely attached another language to their repertoire.
Méthode grammaire et traduction
La méthode grammaire et traduction est une méthode d’enseignement des langues étrangères dérivée de la méthode classique (parfois dite traditionnelle) pour enseigner le grec et le latin. Avec cette méthode, les étudiants apprennent les règles grammaticales puis les appliquent en traduisant des phrases entre la langue cible et leur langue maternelle. À un niveau plus avancé, ils peuvent avoir à traduire des textes entiers mot à mot.
