communicative competence

communicative competence

Communicative competence is a term in linguistics which refers to a language user's grammatical knowledge of syntax, morphology, phonology and the like, as well as social knowledge about how and when to use utterances appropriately.The term was coined by Dell Hymes in 1966,[1]reacting against the perceived inadequacy of Noam Chomsky's (1965) distinction between competence and performance.[2]To address Chomsky's abstract notion of competence, Hymes undertook ethnographic exploration of communicative competence that included "communicative form and function in integral relation to each other".[3]The approach pioneered by Hymes is now known as the ethnography of communication.Debate has occurred regarding linguistic competence and communicative competence in the second and foreign language teaching literature, and scholars have found communicative competence as a superior model of language following Hymes' opposition to Chomsky's linguistic competence. This opposition has been adopted by those who seek new directions toward a communicative era by taking for granted the basic motives and the appropriateness of this opposition behind the development of communicative competence.[Use in educationThe notion of communicative competence is one of the theories that underlies the communicative approach to foreign language teaching.[3]Canale and Swain (1980) defined communicative competence in terms of three components:[5]1.grammatical competence: words and rules2.sociolinguistic competence: appropriateness3.strategic competence: appropriate use of communication strategiesCanale (1983) refined the above model, adding discourse competence: cohesion and coherenceA more recent survey of communicative competence by Bachman (1990) divides it into the broad headings of "organizational competence," which includes both grammatical and discourse (or textual) competence, and "pragmatic competence," which includes both sociolinguistic and "illocutionary" competence.[6]Strategic Competence is associated with the interlocutors' ability in using communication strategies (Faerch & Kasper, 1983; Lin, 2009).Through the influence of communicative language teaching, it has become widely accepted that communicative competence should be the goal of language education, central to good classroom practice.[7] This is in contrast to previous views in which grammatical competence was commonly given top priority. The understanding of communicative competence has been influenced by the field of pragmatics and the philosophy of language concerning speech acts as described in large part by John Searle and J.L. Austin.Linguistic competence is the system of linguistic knowledge possessed by native speakers of a language. It is in contrast to the concept of Linguistic performance, the way the language system is used in communication. The concept was first introduced by Noam Chomsky[1]as part of the foundations for his Generative grammar, but it has since been adopted and developed by other linguists, particularly those working in the generativist tradition. In the generativist tradition competence is the only level of language that is studied, because this level gives insights into the Universal Grammar, that generativists see as underlying all human language systems. Functional theories of grammar tend to dismiss the sharp distinction between competence and performance, and particularly the primacy given to the study of competence.According to Chomsky, competence is the 'ideal' language system that makes it possible for speakers to produce and understand an infinite number [nb 1]of sentences in their language, and to distinguish grammatical sentences from ungrammatical sentences. This is unaffected by "grammatically irrelevant conditions" such as speech errors.[1]Competence and components of grammarFurther information: Theoretical LinguisticsOne's competence is defined by the grammar,[nb 2][3]or set of language rules, that is represented mentally and manifested based on his or her own understanding of acceptable usage in a given linguistic idiom. Therefore, grammatical competence defines an innate knowledge of rules rather than knowledge of items or relations. According to Chomsky, it is regarded to be innate because one does not have to be trained to develop it and will still be able to apply it in an infinite number of unheard examples.[4]The core components of the grammar are included in the speaker's linguistic competence and these components corresponds to five of the major subfields of linguistics:•Phonetics: The physical production and perception of the inventory of sounds used in producing language.•Phonology: The mental organization of physical sounds and the patterns formed by the way sounds are combined in a language, and the restrictions on permissible sound combinations.E.g.: slip vs *slib and *sbill•Morphology: The identification, analysis and description of units of meaning in a language. One will know the inflectional andderivational morphology present in the language, such as theaffixes of words.E.g.: re-cuddle can be derived but not *re-rich•Syntax: The structure and formation of sentences. One can distinguish between grammatical sentences and ungrammaticalsentences.E.g.: My hair needs washing is acceptable but not *My hair needswash•Semantics: Understanding the meaning of sentences. This is also howa user of the language is able to understand and interpret thenon-literal meaning in a given utterance. They are threedistinctions drawn here:(i) Meaningful and non-meaningful sentencesE.g.: The accident was seen by thousands is meaningful but not *Theaccident was looked by thousands(ii) Same structure but different meaningsE.g.: The cow was found by the stream but not *The cow was foundby the farmer(iii) Different structures and still be able to relate the meaningsE.g.: The police examined the bullet.The bullet was examined by the police.Competence in PsycholinguisticsPsycholinguistics is primarily concerned with language as a psychological phonomenon.[18] It provides insights into how we assemble our own speech and writing and how we understand that of others; into how we store and use vocabulary; into how we manage to acquire language in the first place.[19]According to experimental linguist N.S. Sutherland, the task of psycholinguistics is not to confirm Chomsky's account of linguistic competence by undertaking experiments. It is by doing experiments, to find out what are the mechanisms that underlie linguistic competence.[20] Psycholinguistics generally do not see the distinction between performance and competence to accurately reflect the empirical data, but tend to prefer usage based theories.[21]There are 3 important elements of psycholinguistics that are used to describe the mechanisms underlying our language understanding and production.(i) The language signalThis refers to all forms of language expression, such as writing and speech, which are generated and perceived by language users. The most striking characteristic of the language signal is its perceptual invariance, both in writing and in speech, as there is always a salient and stable form that stands out against its physical environment. In our perception of such forms, gaps are closed, and irregularities are overlooked.[18](ii) Operations of our neuropsychological systemThe operations of our neuropsychological systems determine how language signals are perceived and generated. For both speech and writing, there are two very different sorts of biological system involved. Speech involves auditory pathways from sensory organs to the brain then the vocal tract whilst writing involves motor pathways from sensory organs to the brain followed by the hand-arm system. However, they do have a similarity in that both involve short pathways to the central processing areas in the brain, regarded as the central language area.[18](iii) Language SystemThis is more abstract than the first two since it may be implemented even when we are not using palpable language signals at all, as in silent verbal reasoning, contemplation of our language and general language knowledge .[18][edit] Communicative competenceMain article: Communicative competenceAnother functionalist theory advances the notion of communicative competence, which focuses on socially-situated performance, was developed by Dell Hymes in response to the abstract nature of linguistic competence.[22][23] Communicative competence is also sometimes referred to as pragmatic or sociolinguistic competence, especially when the emphasis is on how to interpret the speaker's intended meaning in a particular utterance, apart from the literal meaning.[24]The major criticism towards Chomsky's notion of linguistic competence by Hymes is the inadequate distinction of competence and performance. Furthermore, he commented that it is unreal and that no significant progress in linguistics is possible without studying forms along with the ways in which they are used. As such, linguistic competence should fall under the domain of communicative competence since it comprises four competence areas, namely, linguistic, sociolinguistic, discourse and strategic.Communicative Language Teaching approachThe Definition Of CLTCommunicative Language Teaching (CLT) originated from the changes in the British Situational Language Teaching approach dating from the late 1960s (Richards & Rodgers, 2001). Stemming from the socio-cognitive perspective of the socio-linguistic theory, with an emphasis on meaning and communication, and a goal to develop learners’ “communicative competence”, Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach evolves as a prominent language teaching method and gradually replaced the previous grammar-translation method and audio-lingual method (Warschauer & Kern, 2000). Since the concept of “communicative competence” was first int roduced by Hymes in themid-1960s, many researchers have helped develop theories and practices of Communicative Language Teaching approach (Brown, 1987; Canale, 1983; Hymes, 1971; Littlewood, 1981; Nattinger, 1984; Nunan, 1987 &1989; Richards & Rodgers, 1986; Widdowson, 1990). Hymes coined this term in contrast to Chomsky’s “Linguistic Competence”. As Stern (1992) explicated, “Competence represents proficiency at its most abstract and psychologically deepest level” (p.73). Chomsky indicated that underlying the concrete language performance, there is an abstract rule system or knowledge and this underlying knowledge of the grammar of the language by the native speaker is his “linguistic competence”. In contrast, Hymes argue that in addition to linguistic comp etence, the native speaker has another rule system. In Hymes’ view, language was considered as a social and cognitive phenomenon; syntax and language forms were understood not as autonomous, acontextual structures, but rather as meaning resources used in particular conventional ways and develop through social interaction and assimilation of others’ speech (Warschauer & Kern, 2000). Therefore, speakers of a language have to have more than grammatical competence in order to be able to communicate effectively in a language; they also need to know how language is used by members of a speech community to accomplish their purposes (Hymes, 1968). Based on this theory, Canale and Swain (1980) later extend the “Communicative competence” into four dimensions. In Canal e and Swain, “‘Communicative competence’ was understood as the underlying systems of knowledge and skill required for communication. Knowledge refers here to what one knows (consciously or unconsciously) about the language and about other aspects of communicative language use; skill refers to how well one can perform this knowledge in actual communication (Canale, 1983, p.5)”. From this perspective, what language teachers need to teach is no longer just linguistic competence but also socio-linguistic compe tence (“which utterances are produced and understood appropriately in different socio-linguistic contexts”), discourse competence (“mastery of how to combine grammaticalforms and meanings to achieve a unified spoken or written text in different genres”), and strategic competence (“mastery of verbal and non-verbal communication strategies that may be called into action for compensating or enhancing communication”) (Canale, 1983, pp.7-11).Distinguishing Features Of CLTRichards and Rodgers (2001) have revi ewed a number of people’s works on CLT and described several distinguishing features of it. As “communicative competence” is the desired goal, in CLT, meaning is paramount (Finocchiaro & Brumfit, 1983, cited by Richards and Rodgers, 2001). In socio-cognitive perspectives, language is viewed as a vehicle of conveying meaning, and knowledge is transmitted through communication involving two parts, for example, speakers and listeners, and writers and readers, but is constructed through negotiation. As a consequence, “communication is not only a matter of following conventions but also of negotiating through and about the conventions themselves. It is a convention-creating as well as convention-following activity (Breen & Candlin, 2001, p.10)”. Therefore, there are three elements involved in the underlying learning theory: communication principle, task-based principle, and meaningfulness principle (Richards & Rodgers, 2001, p.161). Based on this perception, when applied to language learning, “functional activities” and “social interaction activities” (Littlewood, 1981) are consequently selected according to how well they engage the learner in meaning and authentic language use; learning is interpersonal to learn to communicate; attempt to communicate may be encouraged from the very beginning; dialogues, if used, centre around communicative functions and not normally memorized; and contextualization is basic premise; drilling may occur, but peripherally; any device that helps to communicate and understand is acceptable (Finocchiaro & Brumfit, 1983, cited by Richards & Rodgers, 2001, p.156). To some extent, that is to say, students do not simply learn the linguistic structures andgrammar rules. Rather, they should be actively making meaning through activities such as collaborative problem solving, writing for a purpose, discussion of topics of genuine interest, and reading, viewing and responding to authentic materials (Murphy, 2000).Since knowledge and learning are viewed as socially constructed through negotiation according to socio-cognitive perspectives (Breen & Candlin, 2001), another dimension of CLT is learner-centred andexperience-based. “With interactive communicative language use as the call of the day, communicative processes became as important as linguistic product, and instruction became more learner-centered and less structurally driven” (Kern & Warschauer, 2000, p.5). In another word, in CLT context, learners are seen as active participants in the construction of knowledge, rather than passive recipients of information provided by the teacher or the textbook. In contrast, language teachers are no longer viewed as the authority of the knowledge, playing a dominant role. Rather, they share different roles such as communication facilitater, independent participant, needs analyst, counselor, and group process manager (Richards & Rodgers, 2001, p.167) to create more fascinating experiences for the learners.Besides the above features, Richards and Rodgers (2001) describe other significant characteristics of this approach including its efforts to make tasks and language relevant to a target group of learners through an analysis of genuine, realistic situations, its emphasis on the use of authentic, from-life materials, and its attempt to create a secure, nonthreatening atmosphere. All these attempts also follow the major principles of communicative view of language and language learning: helping learners learn a language through authentic and meaningful communication, which involves a process of creative construction, to achieve fluency. In this vein, in terms of classroom activity, it includes group work, task-work, information-gap activities, and projects.The Weaknesses Of CLTYet, inevitably, despite these outstanding characteristics, CLT also have weaknesses. Schmitt (2000) argued that CLT needs supportive vocabulary for functional language use but it gives little guidance about how to handle vocabulary. However, it has been now realized that mere exposure to language and practice with functional communication will not ensure the proficiency in language learning, so current best practice includes “both a principled selection of vocabulary, often according to frequency lists, and an instruction methodology that encourages meaningful engagement with words o ver a number of recyclings” (p.14). Stern (1992) also pointed out that CLT approach puts an excessive emphasis on the single concept “communication” so that “in order to account for all varieties and aspects of language teaching we either stretch the concept of communication so much that it loses any distinctive meaning, or we accept its limitations and then find ourselves in the predicament of the “method” solution” (p. 14). Some people criticized that as CLT focus on learner-centered approach, while in some accounts of CLT, learners bring preconception of what teaching and learning should be like, which when unrealized can lead to learner confusion and resentment (Henner-Stanchina & Riley, 1978, cited by Richards & Rodgers, 2001).In addition, some people contended that CLT has not given an adequate account of EFL teaching despite its initial growth in foreign language teaching in Europe (Li, 2001). Stern (1992) argued that one of the most difficult problems is making classroom learning communicative is the absence of native speakers. Apparently, CLT are more successful in English as a Second Language (ESL) context because students usually have a very supportive learning environment outside school. They have more chances to be exposed to the authentic contact with native speakers and the target language, which reinforces what they learn in class. Besides, they have the motivation to work on oral English because they need it in their lives. In contrast, in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context, due to some physical limitations, such as the purpose of learning English, learning environments, teachers’ Englishproficiency, and the availability of authentic English materials, CLT meets much more difficulties during its application.confronted by language teachers but it has a great potential that gain the apparent popularity in language teaching and learning domain. It also needs to realize that there In summary, CLT cannot be seen as a panacea for the problems that have been isn’t a fix framework of CLT. As learners and the learning context are dynamic, when CLT is applied to a certain context, the adaptation and innovation of it is necessary.。

Communicative Competence ScaleWiemann (1977) created the Communicative Competence Scale (CCS) to measure communicative competence, an ability "to choose among available communicative behaviors" to accomplish one's own "interpersonal goals during an encounter while maintaining the face and line" of "fellow interactants within the constraints of the situation" (p. 198). Originally, 57 Likert-type items were created to assess five dimensions of interpersonal competence (General Competence, Empathy Affiliation/Support, Behavioral Flexibility, and Social Relaxation) and a dependent measure- (interaction Management). Some 239 college students used the scale to rate videotaped confederates enacting one of four role-play interaction management conditions (high, medium, low, rude). The 36 items that discriminated the best between conditions were used in the final instrument. Factor analysis resulted in two main factors-general and relaxation-indicating that the subjects did not differentiate among the dimensions as the model originally predicted.Subjects use the CCS to assess another person's communicative competence by responding to 36 items using Likert scales that range from strongly agree (5) to strongly disagree (1). The scale takes less than 5 minutes to complete. Some researchers have adapted the other-report format to self-report and partner-report. These formats are available from the author.RELIABILITYThe CCS appears to be internally consistent. Wiemann (1977) reported a .96 coefficient alpha (and .74 magnitude of experimental effect) for the 36item revised instrument. McLaughlin and Cody (1982) used a 30-item version for college students to rate their partners after 30 minutes of conversation and reported an alpha of .91. Jones and Brunner (1984) had college students rate audio-taped interactions and reported an overall alpha of .94 to .95; subscale scores had alphas ranging from .68 to .82. Street, Mulac, and Wiemann (1988) had college students rate each other on communicative competence and reported an alpha of .84. The 36-item self-report format version is also reliable: Cupach and Spitz berg (1983) reported an alpha of .90, Hazleton and Cupach (1986) reported an alpha of .91, Cegala, Savage, Brunner, and Conrad (1982) reported an alpha of .85, and Query, Parry, and Flint (1992) reported an alpha of .86,Profile by Rebecca R. Rubin.VALIDITYTwo studies found evidence of construct validity. First, McLaughlin and Cody (1982) found that interactants in conversations in which there were multiple lapses of time rated each other lower on communicative competence. Second, Street et al. (1988) found that conversants' speech rate, vocal back channeling, duration of speech, and rate of interruption were related to their communicative competence scores; they also found that conversants rated their partners significantly more favorably than did observers.Various studies have provided evidence of concurrent validity. Cupach and Spitzberg (1983) used the dispositional self-report format and found that the CCS was strongly correlated with two other dispositions: communication adaptability and trait self-rated competence. The CCS was also modestly related to situational, conversation-specific measures of feeling good and self-rated competence. Hazleton and Cupach (1986) found a moderate relationship between communicative competence and both ontological knowledge about interpersonal communication and interpersonal communication apprehension. Backlund (1978) found communicative competence was related to social insight and open-mindedness. Douglas (1991) reported inverse relationships between communication competence and uncertainty and apprehension during initial meetings, And Query et al. (1992) found that nontraditional students, those high in communication competence, had more social supports and were more satisfied with these supports.In addition, Cegala et al. (1982) compared 326 college students' CCS and Interaction Involvement Scalescores. All three dimensions of interaction involvement were positively correlated with the CCS, but onlyperceptiveness correlated significantly with all five dimensions for both men and women. Responsiveness was related to behavioral flexibility, affiliation/support, and social relaxation, and attentiveness was related toimpression management.COMMENTSAlthough this scale has existed for a number of years and the original article has been cited numerous times,relatively few research studies have actually used the CCS. As reported by Perotti and De Wine (1987), problems with the factor structure and the Likert-type format may be reasons why. They suggested that theinstrument be used as a composite measure of communicative competence rather than breaking the scale into subscales, and this appears to be good advice. Spitzberg (1988, 1989) viewed the instrument as well conceived, suitable for observant or conversant rating situations, and aimed at "normal" adolescent or adult populations, yet Backlund (1978) found little correlation between peer-perceived competence and expert-perceived competence when using the CCS. The scale has been used only with college student populations.LOCATIONWiemann; J. M. (1977). Explication and test of a model of communicative competence.

municative competence typically refers to how well someone is able to communicate with others, though this can be elaborated upon and further refined in a number of ways.2. Communicative competence is important for anyone who wishes to be able to communicate clearly, especially public speakers and people learning a second language.Politicians and other public speakers often seek high levels of communicative competence to be able to effectively convey meaning and express ideas to others. People who are learning a second language also tend to focus on this type of competence to ensure they understand subtext and various aspects of communication within that language that may be subtle and complex.The idea behind communicative competence is that the ways in which people communicate can be analyzed and considered with regard to effectiveness. Someone is often considered competent, at least on a surface level, if he or she can talk to someone else in a way that is appropriate and which conveys meaning in an accurate way. This actual process, however, is often seen as being composed of three basic steps that occur in communication. Planning is a vital part of communicative competence as it demonstrates that someone is able to think about communication ahead of time and prepare for it.2.During communication, the way in which a person communicates is often considered in two elements regarding his or her communicative competence. The message that is delivered is the actual content that a person speaks, writes, or otherwise expresses in some way. Within this message, however, is the meaning that a person manages to convey. Someone may feel that his or her message expresses one idea, but the actual meaning might not necessarily match the intention of the message.Communicative competence is important for just about anyone who wishes to communicate with other people in any type of relationship. Arguments and disagreements can often be avoided if people are able to effectively express meaning in a message.3. Comment1: Communicative competence starts developing at a young age. So childhood and education is important. But it's also true that some people naturally have more skill andcompetence in this area. I think it has to do with the various areas of the brain and which areas an individual uses more heavily.For example, my brother is a very smart person but his communication skills are very poor. I don't think he will every be competent in this area. He has always been this way.Comment2: Those who want to know what excellent communicative competence means can observe lawyers. Lawyers, naturally, have to be great communicators. They have to present their ideas and information in the right ways in order to make an impact on the listener.I knew many law students in school and they were some of the best communicators I have come across. The amazing part was that they used language so well that they could convince me of one thing and then argue against it and convince me of the opposite argument in a matter of minutes. Now that's communicative competence.4Language teaching in the United States is based on the idea that the goal of language acquisition is communicative competence: the ability to use the language correctly and appropriately to accomplish communication goals. The desired outcome of the language learning process is the ability to communicate competently, not the ability to use the language exactly as a native speaker does。

In the United States, the linguist and anthropologist Dell Hymes developed the concept of communicative competence. This was a reaction to Chomsky’s concept of the linguistic competence of an ideal native speaker.(Savignon,2000) Communicative competence redefined what it meant to “know” a language; in addition to speakers having mastery over the structural elements of language, according to communicative competence they must also be able to use those structural elements appropriately in different social situations.(Savignon 2000)This is neatly summed up by Hymes’s statement, “There are rules of use without which the rules of grammar would be useless.”(Mitchell 1994) Hymes did not make a concrete formulation of communicative competence, but subsequent authors have tied the concept to language teaching, notably Michael Canale.

Interactional view(交往法)1) The structural view结构主义观点:language as a linguistic system made up of various subsystems: from phonological, morphological, lexical, etc. to sentences. Each language has a finite number of such structural items.To learn a language means to learn these structural items so as to be able to understand and produce language.2)The functional view交际法的观点language as a linguistic system but also as a means for doing things. Most of our day-to-day language use involves functional activities: offering, suggesting, advising, apologizing, etc.3)The interactional view交往法的观点Language is a communicative tool, whose main use is to build up and maintain social relations between people. Learners not only need to know the grammar and vocabulary of the language but as importantly they need to know the rules for using them in a whole range of communicative contexts.The interactional view says that to know how to do what one wants to do involves also knowing whether it is appropriate to do so, and where, when and how it is appropriate to do it. In order to know this, the learner has to study the patterns and rules of language above the sentence level to learn how language is used in different speech contexts.2.The qualities of teachers教师素质:ethic devotion; professional qualities; personal styles.municative competence(交际能力组成的5部分): a. linguistic competence b. pragmatic competence c. discourse competence d. strategic competence e. fluency4.

Unit 1一,Views on language:1、Structural view (language competence)结构主义语言观—The founder:Saussure,lasen freeman&long—The structural view of language sees language as a linguistic system made up of various subsystems:1、the sound system(phonology)2、sound combinations(morphology)the discrete units of meaning 3、the system of combining units of meaning for communication(syntax)—The structural view limits knowing a language to knowing its structural rules andvocabulary2 、Functional view功能主义语言观—Representative:Johnson、marrow、swain canal (the core: grammar)—The function view not only sees language as a linguistic system but also a means for doing things功能不仅认为语言是一个语言系统,但也做事情的一种方式—Learners learn a language in order to be able to doing things with itUse the linguistic structure to express functions3、Interactional view 交互语言观(communicative competence)—Emphasis:appropriateness—Language is a communicative tool,which main use is to build up and maintain social relations between people—Learners need to know the rules for using the language in certain context二,View on language learning语言学习观1.Process-oriented theories:强调过程are concerned with how the mind organizes new information such as habit formation, induction, making inference, hypothesis testing and generalization.2.Condition-oriented theories: 强调条件emphasize the nature of the human and physical context in which language learning takes place, such as the number of students, the kind of input learners receives, and the atmosphere.3.Behavioristtheory,(Skinner and waston raynor)A the key point of the theory of conditioning is that”you can train an animal to do anything if yo u follow a certain procedure which has three major stages,s timulus,response,and reinforcemen tB the idea of this method is that language is learned by constant repletion and the reinforcement of the teacher. Mistakes were immediately corrected, and correct utterances were immediately praised.4.Cognitive theory:Chomsky)thinks that language is not a form of behavior,it is an intricate rule-based system a nd a large part of language acquisition is the learning of this system.There are a fin ite number of grammatical rules in the system and with knowledge of these an infinite number of sentences can be produced.5.Constructivist theory:(John Dewey)the constructivist theory believes that learning is a proces in which the learner constructs meaning based on his/her own experiences and what he/he r already knows6.Socio-constructivist theory:(Vygotsky)he emphasizes interaction and engagement with the tar get language in a social context based on the concept of“Zone of Proximal Development”(ZPD)and scaffolding.Unit 2一,What makes a good language teacher?ethic devotion,professional qualities,certain desirable personal styles.四,principles of communicative language teaching(CLT)交际语言教学法原则1)Communication principle:activities that involve real communication promote learning.2)Task principle:activities in which language is used for carrying out meaningful tasks promote learning.3)Meaningfulness principle:language that is meaningful to the learner supports the learning pro cess.五,Howatt proposes a weak and a strong version of CLT.Weak version:learners first acquire language as a structural system and then learn how to use it i n communication. --- the weak version regards overt teaching of language forms and functions as necessary means for helping learners to develop the ability to use them for communication. Strong version:language is acquired through communication.The learners discover the structural system in the process of leaning how to communicate.---regards experiences of using the languag e as the main means or necessary conditions for learning a language as they provide the experienc e for learners to see how language is used in communication.六,PPP: presentation,practice,production三.

When I was preparing the postgraduate entrance examination of NNU(Nanjing Normal University),some of these following concepts had been tested,but there's no specific or clear explanation in the textbook required by the university.As in preparing the second-round examination I read them in other relevant books, I wrote down here for your reference.Hope they are useful to some of you.1. Acculturation(同化过程)is a process in which members of one cultural group adopt the beliefs and behaviors of another group.2. Adjacency pair(相邻语对);a sequence of two utterances by different speakers in conversation. The second is a response to the first, such as question/answer sequences and greeting/greeting exchange.3. affix: a bound morpheme that is attached to a stem and modifies its meaning in some way.4. agreement (concord)(一致): a grammatical phenomenon in which the form of one word in a sentence is determined by the form of another word which is grammatically linked to it. E.g. in the sentence The boy goes to school every day.There is an agreement in number between boy and goes.5.articulators(发音器官): the tongue,lips,and velum, which change the shape of the vocal tract to produce different speech sounds.6.aspect(体): the grammatical category representing distinction in the temporal structure of an event. English has two aspect construction---the perfect and the progressive.(完成体和进行体)7.aspiration(吐气); the puff of air that sometimes follows the pronounciation of a stop consonant.E.g. /p/ in the word pit.8.consonant(辅音); a speech sound produced by partial or complete closure of part of the vocal tract, thus obstructing the airflow and creating audible friction. Consonants are described in terms of voicing, place of articulation, and manner of articulation.9. converstional implicature(会话含义):meanings that are explicable in the light of converational maxims.municative competence(交际能力); the ability to use language appropriately in social situations.11. constituent(成分): a syntactic unit that functions as part of a large unit within a sentence; typical constituent types are verb phrase, noun phrase, prepositional phrase and clause.12.case(格):the grammatical category in inflectional languages by which the form of a noun or noun phrase varies for grammatical or semantic reasons. English has only one case distinction in nouns—the genitive case(所有格), but English pronouns have three forms that correspond to three of the six cases in Latin.13.clause(小句): a grammatical unit that contains a subject and a predicate. It may be a sentence or part of a sentence.14.closed class(封闭词类): a group of words whose membership is small and does not readily accept new members.15.coinage(创新词): the construction and addition of new words.16.distribution(分布): the set of positions in which a given linguistic element or form can appear in a language.17.duality(双重结构): a type of double-layer structure in which a small number of meaningless units are combined to produce a large number of meaningful units.18.entailment(包含); the relationship between two sentences where the truth of one(the second)is inferred from the truth of the other.19.euphemism(委婉语): a word or phrase that replaces a taboo word or is used to avoid reference to certain acts or subjects,e.g. powder room for toilet.20.garden path sentence(花园小径句): a sentence in which the comprehender assumes a particular meaning of a word or a phrase but later discovers that the assumption was incorrect, forcing the comprehender to backtrack and reinterpret the sentence21.free variation;(自由变异) a relation between two speech sounds such that either one can occur in a certain position and the substitution of one for the other never makes any difference in the meaning of the word. For instance, the unexploded(失去爆破) stop /d/ in the phrase Good morning is in free varitation with the exploded(爆破)counterpart.22.inflection(屈折变化): the morphological process by which affixes combine with words or stems to indicate such grammatical categories as tense or plurity.ernment(支配): the grammatical phonomenon in which the presence of a particular word in a sentence requires a second word which is grammatical linked with it to appear in a particular form.

E.g, b,p,s,f are in paradigmatic relation in the words bit,pit,sit,fit, so are Nature,Beauty, Love, Honesty in the sentences:Nature purifies the mind.Beauty purifies the mind.Love purifies the mind.Honesty purifies the mind.29.syntagmatic relation: (横组合关系) The relation between any linguistic elements which are simultaneously present in a structure. E.g. in the word bit, b, i,t are in syntagmatic relation, so are nature, purifies, the, mind, in the sentence Nature purifies the mind.30.presupposition(预设): implicit assumptions about the world acquired to make an utterance meaningful or appropriate,e,g, “ some tea has already been taken”is a presuppostion of “Take some more tea”.31.prototype(典型): What members of a particular community think of as the best example of a lexical category,e.g.for some English speakers “cabbage”(rather than,say,carrot)might be the prototypical vegetable.32.root(词根): the morpheme that remains when all affixes are stripped from a complex word. E.g. system from un- + system + atic + ally.33.stem(词干): the base to which one or more affixes are attached to create a more complex form that may be another stem or a word.34.taboo(禁忌语):words that are offensive or embarrassing, c onsidered inappropriate for “polite society”, thus to be avoided in conversation.35.selectional restriction(选择限制): a restriction on the combining of words in a sentence resulting from their meaning.36.linguistic universal:(语言共性) The linguistic universals are principles that enable children to acquire a particular language unconsciously, without instruction in the early years of life. As a whole they are referred to as Universal Grammar.37.contrastive distribution(对比分布):If the speech sounds occur in the same phonetic context and the substitution results a contrast in meaning, we say they are in contrastive distribution.38.immidiate constituent analysis(直接成分分析法)is the technique of breaking up sentences into word groups by making successive binary cuttings until the level of single words is reached.39.endocentric construction: (向心结构或内心结构)One construction whose distribution is functionally equivalent, or approaching equivalence, to one of its constituents. The typical English endocentric constructions are noun phrases and adjective phrases.40.exocentric construction(离心结构或外心结构)the opposite of endocentric construction,refers to a group of syntactically related words where none of the words is functionally equivalent to the whole group. Most constructions are exocentric.41.politeness can be defined as the means employed to show awareness of another person’s public self-image.42.PP(politeness principle)tact maxim;generosity principle;approbation maxim;modesty maxim;agreement maxim;sympathy maxim.43.irony(反语)is the use of words to express something other than and especially the opposite of the literal meaning of the utterance.44.code-switching: (语码转换) means the alternation between two or more languages,language varieties or registers in communication.45.affective filter(情感过滤):A screen of emotion that can block language acquisition or learning if it keeps the learners being too self-conscious or too embarrassed to take risks during communicative exchanges.46.Conversion(转类构词)is a change in the grammatical function of a word without adding or removing any part of it. A word belonging to one part of speech is extended to another part of speech. It is also called functional shift or zero derivation.47.lexical meaning VS grammatical meaning(词汇意义与语法意义)The meaning of a sentence is carried by the words proper as well as by the patterns of word order that is part of the grammatical system of a language. The part of the sentence meaning contributed by words is called the lexical meaning and the part of sentence meaning that depends upon the way the words are put together is called grammatical meaning, in which the function words and the word order play a very important role.48.paralinguistic meaning VS non-linguistic meaning (副语言意义与非语言意义)In human communication, apart from the linguistic meaning conveyed by language itself,there are numerous paralinguistic meanings and non-linguistic meanings that are perceived simultaneously by the hearer. Paralinguistic meanings are those attached to the verbal expressions by quality of voice,tempo of speech,posture,facial expression and gestures. Non-linguistic meanings are thoseindicated by non-verbal noises such as cough, sigh, tongue-clicking, various kinds of body languages and different contexts of situation.49.denotation VS connotation (外延与内涵)Denotation is a straightforward, literal meaning of the word every member of the language speaking community will agree on. Connotation is not the basic meaing of the word but some emotive or evaluative meaings associated with the word by individual language users in their mind.50.linguistic relativity VS linguistic determinism (语言相对论与语言决定论)The Sapir-Wholf Hypothesis states that there is a systematic relationship between the grammatical categories of the language a person speaks and how that person both understands the world and behaves in it. It boils down to two principles: linguistic relativity and linguistic determinism.Linguistic relativity states that disctinctions encoded in one language are unique to that langage alone, and that there is no limit to the structural diversity of languages.Linguistic determinism refers to the idea that the language we use determines, to some extent, the way in which we view and think about the world around us. This concept has two versions; strongdeterminism and weak determinism. The strong version, which has few followers today, holds that language actually determines thought, whereas that weak version, which is widely accepted today, merely holds that language affects thought.。

orderly.(08F)23.module: It refers to a unit of processing that is relatively autonomous from other processing units.24.Minimal attachment:we prefer attaching new items into the phrase marker being constructed using the fewest syntactic nodes consistent with the rules of the language. (e g. Mike kissed Lucy and her sister…)te closure:wherever possible, we prefer to attach new items to the current constituent to reduce the burden on working memory during parsing.(E.g.: Tom said that Bill had taken the cleaning out yesterday. )26.cohort model: in word comprehension,words are analysed by hearers from beginning to end.27.Selectional restrictions---a restriction on the combining of words in a sentence resulting from their meaning form part of the word-processing system28. Hierarchical Structure----Our representation od complex words is organized in terms of hierarchical morphological structure.29.Levelt’s model of speech production:Four stages of production: conceptualizing----- > formulating---- >articulating---- > self-monitoring.(1) Conceptualizing: we must conceptualize what we wish to communicate.(2)Formulating: we formulate this thought into linguistic plan in the Formulator. It contains grammatical and phonological process and draws upon the lexicon.(3) articulating:the information is passed to the Articulator from Formulator which actually produces the utterance.(4) self-monitoring.:We monitor our speech, to assess whether it is what we intended to say and how we intended to say it....................................................................1.

E.g. /p/ in the word pit.8.consonant(辅音); a speech sound produced by partial or complete closure of part of the vocal tract, thus obstructing the airflow and creating audible fric tion. Consonants are described in terms of voicing, place of articulation, and manner of articulation.9. converstional implicature(会话含义): meanings that are explicable in the l ight of converational maxims.municative competence(交际能力); the ability to use language appropriat ely in social situations.11. constituent(成分): a syntactic unit that functions as part of a large un it within a sentence; typical constituent types are verb phrase, noun phrase, p repositional phrase and clause.12.case(格):the grammatical category in inflectional languages by which the fo rm of a noun or noun phrase varies for grammatical or semantic reasons. English has only one case distinction in nouns—the genitive case(所有格), but English pronouns have three forms that correspond to three of the six cases in Latin.13.clause(小句): a grammatical unit that contains a subject and a predicate.

Communicative competence and TBL

Communicative competence and TBL
Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia /wiki/Communication
Communication “means ‘know how’ to understand and response to different situations that aris; 1977; 1994) discussed the ethnographic-oriented exploration of communicative competence that included 'communicative form and function in integral relation to each other. His research-oriented ideas have undergone an epistemic transformation: from empirically oriented questions to an idealized pedagogic doctrine‘
Communicative competence
- refers to a learner's L2 ability . Abiliyt to apply and use grammatical rules . Ability to form correct utterances .ability to know how to use these utterances appropriately
Georges Duquette (1995: Viii)
2. Types of communication
According to Mehrabian and Ferris (1967) communication is determined by: • body language--postures, gestures, and eye contact 55% • the tone of voice 38% • the content or the words used in the communication process 7%

Savignon, Sandra J., Communicative Competence: Theory and Classroom Practice. Texts and Contexts in Second Language Learning, Reading Mass.: Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, 1983, 322pp., $US 16.00 (Second Language Professional Library) For many years Professor Sandra Savignon has been considered as one of the leaders, indeed one of the pioneers, in the field of communicative language teaching and learning. Her latest book confirms her in that position. Communicative Competence: Theory and Classroom Practice “. . . is a book about texts and contexts in second language learning. It is intended for classroom teachers in training as an introduction to the theoretical bases of communicative language teaching and as a guide to building a second language program consonant with those theories” (vi). The book successfully achieves these goals and provides readers with an intelligent, wellstructured and up-to-date problematization of the processes involved in communicative language learning and its management (“Only the learner can do the learning” (110)). All important topics are covered in this book which consists of six chapters (Definitions of Communicative Competence; L2 Acquisition Research; Learner Attitudes and Interests; Selection of Materials; Shaping the Curriculum, Testing). In addition, there is a conclusion which takes the form of “A Letter to My Teacher”, a list of References, a Glossary and an Index. Chapters are introduced by a statement of objectives and followed by “Suggested Readings” and a thought-provoking “Research and Discussion” section which points to areas which might be fruitfully investigated in the context of seminar or personal research projects. The approach described above, coupled with an unpretentious style, results in a very clear exposition of the theory and practice of communicative language learning. On occasion, the author’s concern for making the material accessible to the teacher at the workplace results in a rather chatty style. This same concern also gives certain parts of the text distinct recipe-book overtones. However, this is not necessarily a fault as examples are pertinent and well-founded in theory.

Topic10 Communicative competence and communicative language teachinga.linguistic competenceN. Chomsky: the speaker-hearer’s knowledge of his language.A set of (finite or infinite) sentences, each finite in length and constructed out of a finiteset of elements.municative competenceD. Hymes: Whether (and to what degree) something is formally possible.Whether (and to what degree) something is feasible, in virtue of the means ofimplementation available.Whether (and to what degree) something is appropriate (adequate, happy,successful) in relation to the context in which it is used and evaluated.Whether (and to what degree) something is in fact done, actually performed, andwhat its doing entails.Knowledge vs ability for use: “the individual’s potential to realize a possible, feasible and appropriate speech act, not the realization itself”. Its scope is broad, including cognitive andnon-cognitive factors such as motivation, courage, gameness, gallantry, composure, presence of mind, dignity, stage confidence and others.M. Canale and M. Swain: Grammatical competenceSociolinguistic competenceDiscourse competenceStrategic competenceCanale and Swain deliberately exclude ability for use from their model of communicative competence. They argue that while performance may demonstrate such factors as volition, motivation, etc., they doubt that there is any theory of human action that can adequately explicateability for use and hence, as it cannot be modeled, it cannot be included in their framework. Theyview ability for use as simply part of communicative performance.municative language abilityL.

Conventions of rhetorical organizations include common methods of development such as narration, description, comparison,classification and process analysis.ideational function: by which we express meaning in terms of our experience of the real world.an utterance act: simply the act of saying something.a propositional act: involving referring to something or expressing a predication aboutsomething.an illocutionary act: is the function (assertion, warning, request, order, etc.) performed by saying something or the purpose for which an utterance is produced.perlocutionary acts: the effect of an utterance upon the hearer.manipulative function: whose primary purpose is to affect the world around us and includes instrumental (to get thing done), regulatory (to control the behavior of others) and interactive (to form, maintain and change interpersonal relations) functions.heuristic function: pertains to the use of language to extend our knowledge of the world around us and occurs commonly in such acts as teaching, learning, problem-solving and conscious memorizing.imaginative function: to create or extend our own environment for humorous or esthetic purposes: telling jokes, communicating fantasies, creating metaphors or other figures of speech, as well as reading literary works for enjoyment.dialect: regional, class, temporalregister: degrees of formalitycultural references and figures of speech: The ability to interpret cultural references and figures of speech is another aspect of sociolinguistic competence. Many cultural references and figures of speech are incorporated, with set meanings, into the lexicon of any language and are thus considered part of lexical competence. Nevertheless, knowledge of the extended meanings given by a specific culture to particular events, places, institutions, or people is required whenever these meanings are referred to in language use.naturalness: to either formulate or interpret an utterance in a native-like way.strategic competence:1)interactional view: mastery of verbal and non-verbal strategies both to compensate forbreakdowns in communication due to insufficient competence or to performance limitations and to enhance the rhetorical effect of an utterance.2)psycholinguistic view:I. Assessment component: i) identify the information needed for realizing a particular communicative goal in a given context, ii) determine what language competencies are at ourdisposal for most effectively bringing that information to bear in achieving the communicative goal, iii) ascertain the abilities and knowledge that are shared by our interlocutors, and iv) follow the communication attempt, evaluate the extent to which the communicative goal has been achieved.II. Planning component: retrieves relevant items from language competence and formulates a plan whose realization is expected to achieve the communicative goal.III. Execution component: draws on the relevant physiological mechanisms to implement the plan in the modality and channel appropriate to the communicative goal and context.psychophysiological mechanisms: are essentially the neurological and physiological processes. We can distinguish the visual from the auditory channel and the productive from the receptive mode. In receptive language use, visual and auditory skills are used, while in productive, neuromuscular skills (articulatory and digital)II. Components of communicative language ability in communicative language useKNOWLEDGE STRUCTURES LANGUAGE COMPETENCEKnowledge of the world Knowledge of languageSTRATEGIC COMPETENCEPSYCHOPHYSICAL MECHANISMSCONTEXT OF SITUATIONNonverbal Communication1. Fundamental concepts of nonverbal communication1.1. The definitionNonverbal communication is the process by which nonverbal behaviors are used, either singly or in combination with verbal behaviors, in the exchange and interpretation of messages within a given situation or context.1.2. The functions of nonverbal messages1) complementing: consistent with the accompanying verbal message but add or strengthen orclarifying the meaning of the verbal message.2) contradicting: contradict the verbal message.3) repeating: repeat the verbal message and can stand alone when the verbal message is notpresent.4) regulating: regulate the cooperative communication.5) accenting: accent or emphasize distinct points in verbal messages.6) substituting: nonverbal rather than verbal messages are sent.1.3. Nonverbal communication and culture1) transfer: when an item in the target nonverbal communication system corresponds in both form and meaning to an item in the native nonverbal communication system, the learner can simple transfer the native item to the target one: nodding2) underdifferentiation: an item in the native nonverbal communication system has no corresponding item in the target nonverbal communication system, the learner has to avoid using that item when interacting with the native user of that system: the turtle gesture as a swear gesture 3) reassociation: when an item in the target body language corresponds in meaning but not in form to an item in the native nonverbal communication system, the learner has to associate the meaning with a different form: eight. When an item in the target body language corresponds in form but not in meaning to an item in the native nonverbal communication system, the learner has to associate the form with a different meaning: the OK gesture means 0 in Chinese.4) reinterpretation: an item in the target nonverbal communication system is similar but not identical to an item in the native nonverbal communication system: the speaker claps his hands together with the audience when he completes his speech.5) overdifferentiation: an entirely new item in the target nonverbal communication system must be learned: thumb down to mean a strong “no”.6) conflict: an item in the target body language is similar or identical in form to an item in the native body language, but the two convey conflicting meaning in the two cultures: laugh when seeing, for example, somebody fall down.2. Kinesics or body language2.1.
