Aquí, Adrián Chávez pone su experiencia en la lingüística y en la divulgación al servicio de desenmarañar el entramado de fake news, teorías conspirativas y pseudociencias que pueblan el entorno digital, donde las certezas se multiplican como cabezas de Hidra. Estas páginas —más que un dedo acusatorio— son la pausa antes de dar clic en un titular: una exploración de qué se dice y cómo, de quién enuncia y con qué fin, de la diferencia entre malinformar y desinformar, y de cómo la posverdad se delata con la lengua.

Story0
This book examines language as both a tool for communication and a means of understanding, while never forgetting its built-in limitations. Language shapes our thinking, yes—but in doing so, it erects barriers that keep us from grasping the raw, unfiltered essence of reality. Words, with their multiple meanings and dependence on context, have a bad habit of distorting the message, turning conversation into an elaborate and bewildering game of charades.

The last decade has seen an exponential increase in the development and adoption of language technologies, from personal assistants such as Siri and Alexa, through automatic translation, to chatbots like ChatGPT. Yet questions remain about what we stand to lose or gain when we rely on them in our everyday lives. As a non-native English speaker living in an English-speaking country, Vered Shwartz has experienced both amusing and frustrating moments using language technologies: from relying on inaccurate automatic translation, to failing to activate personal assistants with her foreign accent.

Chi parla, soprattutto se da posizioni di autorità o in contesti istituzionali, ha una pesante responsabilità: ciò che diciamo cambia i limiti di ciò che può essere detto, sposta un po' più in là i confini di ciò che viene considerato normale, assodato, legittimo. E cambiare i limiti di ciò che può essere detto cambia allo stesso tempo i limiti di ciò che può essere fatto.

Что такое языковые заимствования? Эта тема, несомненно, волнует каждого из нас. Ее обсуждают в школе, в учебниках, в научной литературе и на интернет-форумах. Вместе с тем популярные экскурсы в область заимствований, выходящие в России, сводятся по большей части к теме иностранных слов в русском языке. А вот что такое заимствование вообще, по каким признакам мы его отличаем, почему оно возникает в языке, почему ему сопротивляются — книги об этом пока не было. Этот пробел и попыталась восполнить филолог-англист Мария Елифёрова.

Fünf herrliche freie Wochen wollen sie gemeinsam verbringen, Kurt und seine Prinzessin, Lydia. Sie fahren nach Schweden, suchen sich ein einsames Plätzchen - Schloss Gripsholm. Mit Sonne, Wald, Unterkunft im Seitentrakt des Schlosses, dem See vor der Tür, und nichts, aber auch gar nichts, was sie noch an Berlin erinnern könnte. Als Karlchen, Kurts bester Freund, sich meldet, ob er nicht auch für ein paar Tage bei ihnen unterkommen könnte, da überlegen sie erst - und stimmen dann zu.

From television shows to the manosphere, and from alt-right communities to fatherhood forums, debates about masculinity have come to dominate the media landscape. This growing cultural tension around masculinities has been discussed and analyzed both for general audiences and in burgeoning academic scholarship. What has been typically overlooked, however, is the role that language plays in these mediated performances of masculinity. In Language and Mediated Masculinities, Robert Lawson draws on data to explore language and masculinities across a range of media contexts.

En el lenguaje actual de las mujeres nombrar es poder, por eso esta obra propone palabras y situaciones cercanas a las mujeres, pero jamás exclusivas porque, como el lenguaje, este es un libro plural, cualquier persona interesada en el debate de por qué y cómo se expresan, es bienvenida a estas páginas. La autora se ocupa fundamentalmente de palabras, pero también de anécdotas, de casos reales, recuerdos, entrevistas, reflexiones, datos, estadísticas, referentes históricos y actuales; lugares, instituciones, consignas, canciones, lemas… pues cuando se trata de palabras todo suma.

Leksykon „Do domu!!!”, autorstwa profesora Jerzego Bralczyka, to kolejny po „Jeść!!!” i „W drogę!!!” przewodnik po słowach i ich znaczeniach. Znany i lubiany językoznawca zaprasza do domu na niezwykle pouczający i zarazem dowcipny spacer po pomieszczeniach, okraszony wieloma powiedzonkami i cytatami z klasyki polskiej literatury. Czytelnicy zwiedzą salon, kuchnię i jadalnię, ale też alkowę i buduar, zajrzą do spiżarni i lodówki, ocenią, co jest bardziej wygodne: kanapa, tapczan czy wersalka, będą podziwiać żyrandole i etażerki, a na koniec wyjdą na balkon, a może taras lub werandę – z pewnością jednak nie będą się snuli z kąta w kąt.

„W drogę!!!” to kolejny po „Jeść!!!” bogato ilustrowany, tematyczny leksykon profesora Jerzego Bralczyka. Tym razem przedmiotem rozważań autora są słowa związane z podróżowaniem, drogą, wędrowaniem. Każde z haseł to osobny, pełen humoru i imponującej erudycji felieton. Profesor Bralczyk pisze o pochodzeniu wybranych przez siebie słów, ich zmieniających się przez lata znaczeniach, zaskakujących kontekstach w jakich bywają używane i skojarzeniach jakie budzą. Ten słownik wciąga jak pasjonująca powieść.
