Listening to Spoken English
Gillian Brown’s first edition was a pioneering work. She showed that the implied natural development of listening competence from speaking competence was not warranted, partly because of the lack of identity between the slow formal delivery of the pronunciation drill and the wide range of pronunciation styles encountered by the foreign listener to native speakers, and partly because the emphasis on mastery of the phonological code (whether segmental sounds or tonal contours) had been at the expense of relating auditory signals to the message structure of the discourse.

This volume presents a comprehensive study of what constitutes Translation Competence, from the various sub-competences to the overall skill. Contributors combine experience as translation scholars with their experience as teachers of translation. The volume is organized into three sections: Defining, Building, and Assessing Translation Competence. The chapters offer insights into the nature of translation competence and its place in the translation training programme in an academic environment and show how theoretical considerations have contributed to defining, building and assessing translation competence, offering practical examples of how this can be achieved.
The Acquizition of Sociolinguistics Competence in a Study Abroad Context
Drawing on cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses of a range of sociolinguistic variables in L2 French, this volume explores the relationship between 'study abroad' and the acquisition of sociolinguistic variation patterns by the advanced second language learner. Within a variationist paradigm, the findings illuminate a number of issues in relation to the role of speaker identity, gender, and L2 exposure and contact.
