Cross Cultural Communication: Spoken Discourse

http://yiling-in-gek1036.blogspot.com/2009/09/spoken-discourse.html

Friday, September 11, 2009. I think spoken discourse is pretty confusing. The lecture only mentions examples after examples of speech events as an extended version of spoken discourse but doesn't define spoken discourse. Like that how ah? A very typical phrase students use when confused about school content to communicate within local context. Is that a spoken discourse or a speech act? I believe my answers should be coming soon! Can be used to identify the other party! Me: Yes what's up? Me: I am me!

http://gek1036-hueyli.blogspot.com/2009/10/i-hate-e-learning-not-showing.html

Gek1036 cross-cultural communication and discourse. Friday, October 9, 2009. I hate e-learning [& not showing politeness for e-learning]. Call me conventional/obiang/stupid-cannot-adapt but e-learning is a bit of hellish for me. hahaha . i had always wished to experience e-learning since poly but i think once for me is enough . Who had know that politeness can be grouped into so many groups? Tact and Generosity Maxim. Out of politeness I might reply " its quite nice. Oh, something my coordinator friend a...

GEK 1036: Lecture 3 Speech event

http://peiyi68.blogspot.com/2009/09/lecture-3-speech-event.html

This blog is open for the gek module's weekly reflection, for now i'll try to manage it for my study only. Lecture 3 Speech event. I went for a rehearsal last friday, and met my section partner first time. We introduce ourselves to each other, shake hands, and we chat whenever we don't need to play! The rest of orchestra! Our chatting topic changed almost every time after another break, from where we from, how good the instrument is, what are you playing now, and the future career. etc. Key: free, relaxed.

GEK1036 Cross-Cultural Communication and Discourse: August 2009

http://whatsyourculturelike.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html

GEK1036 Cross-Cultural Communication and Discourse. Sunday, August 30, 2009. I thought it was particularly fascinating to know that cultural systems can significantly affect our language conventions. Since speech acts are non-universal, inappropriate use might result in highly embarrassing social gaffes. Which simply meant "how are you? No bluff. Talk about making a lasting impression though. Okay, until next time :). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

GEK1036 Cross-Cultural Communication and Discourse: On Politeness and Face

http://whatsyourculturelike.blogspot.com/2009/10/on-politeness-and-face.html

GEK1036 Cross-Cultural Communication and Discourse. Friday, October 9, 2009. On Politeness and Face. Out of all the Politeness Maxims, I've narrowed down to three that I most commonly encounter and/or use. October 11, 2009 at 9:38 PM. It seems that politeness maxims are well at work in our daily life. You have used them well on different occasions and should be a great person to work with. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

GEK 1036 X-Cultural C&D: Week 8: Cross-gender interaction

http://megu-xculture.blogspot.com/2009/10/week-8-cross-gender-interaction.html

GEK 1036 X-Cultural C&D. Thursday, October 22, 2009. Week 8: Cross-gender interaction. October 27, 2009 at 8:33 PM. Its interesting to know that theres masculine and feminine forms of i. Is the sexism in pronouns only limited to i? Because in english, we sort of accept that she is feminine and he masculine, but theres no notion to change it at all. In french, there are il (he), elle (she), ils (male they), and elles (female they), yet there are no complaints against the system. But i guess its different?
