Paralinguistics-Paralanguage


What It Is??

Paralanguage includes accent, pitch, volume, speech rate, modulation, and Fluency Some researchers also include certain non-vocal phenomena under the heading of paralanguage: facial expressions, eye movements, hand gestures, and the like. "The boundaries of paralanguage," says Peter Matthews, "are (unavoidably) imprecise."


Although paralinguistics was once described as the "neglected stepchild" in language studies, linguists and other researchers have recently demonstrated greater interest in the field.  
The rise in recent decades of non-face-to-face communication through email, text messaging, and social media led to the use of emoticons as a substitute for paralanguage.

Etymology-From Greek and Latin, "beside" + "language"


Paralinguistic Communication 

Paralinguistics is the part of communication outside of the words themselves – the volume, speed, intonation of a voice along with gestures and other non-verbal cues.
Whenever there is confusion or stereotyping in cross-cultural communication, paralinguistics is most often responsible.
Paralinguistics can be broken down into categories. The following are he most important for the classroom.


Gestures •
 Facial expressions 
• Eye contact
 • Kinesics or body language
 • Proxemics

classification of G.C. Ainsworth (1973)

Introduction to Fungi The  fungi  (singular,  fungus ) include several thousand species of eukaryotic, spore bearing organisms that obtain simple organic compounds by absorption. The organisms have no chlorophyll and reproduce by both sexual and asexual means. The fungi are usually filamentous, and their cell walls have  chitin.  The study of fungi is called  mycology , and fungal diseases are called  mycoses.  Two major groups of organisms make up the fungi. The filamentous fungi are called molds, while the unicellular fungi are called yeasts. The fungi are classified in the kingdom Fungi in the Whittaker five-kingdom system of classification. Agriraghv KEY CONCEPTS 1. Kingdom Fungi (the true fungi) is a monophyletic group of eukaryotic heterotrophs that reproduce with spores and have chitinous cell walls. The most familiar fungi are kitchen molds and mushrooms. The kingdom may include 1.5 million species, of which about 80,0...

Etawah- Pilot Project

Etawah Pilot Project E tawah Pilot Project    The idea of starting this project was co↳ nceived and born in 1947. It was put into action with headquarters at Mahewa village about 17 miles from Etawah (U.P.) in September, 1948. First 64 villages, which were then increased to 97, were covered under this project. Lt.col. Albert Mayer of USA, who came to India with the American forces in 1944, was the originator of this project for his scheme, assistance was given by USA and UP Government. The second name of this project is "Average district project". By name it seems that this is a representative district on the basis of resources criteria; so that successful programme should be adopted in all places easily. It was conceived in 1947. But it was started in September 1948. This project was initiated in the guidance of Lt. Colonel Albert Mayor who had come to India with American armed forces in 1944, and had background of this type of work in USA. Mr. Harace...

Water Absorption

Absorption of water Agriraghv Water in the atmosphere😊 The electromagnetic interactions with ice, snow, and clouds are determined by the refractive index and absorption coefficient of pure ice plus the reflectance, absorbance and transmittance effects of grain size (for snow), bubbles (for glacier and lake ices), brine inclusions (for sea ice) and impurities (for clouds) [ 3580 ]. Clouds contain smaller ice crystals than snow plus dust and soot. The spectrum of ice resembles (but is not identical to) that of water (see  below ) except in the far-infrared, microwave and radio-wave regions (particularly <~20 cm -1 ). The grain size of snow determines its reflectance with larger crystals showing poorer reflectance (poorer aldebo) and greater absorbance. Ice is blue (like liquid water, see  below ) but snow is white. Snow and ice are transparent to radio waves with radar able to determine ice-sheet thickness. Ordinary ice is birefringent . Active absorption ...
