    18. La storia della varietà etnolinguistica nella Federazione Russa - intervista con Gianluca Pardelli di Soviet Tours
    Aug 16 2024
    In questo episodio, esploriamo la diversità etnolinguistica nei paesi dell'ex Unione Sovietica, con un focus particolare sulla Federazione Russa. La Russia è un mosaico di gruppi etnolinguistici, e nel corso della sua storia ha gestito questa diversità in modi differenti, influenzati dalle contingenze storiche e dai periodi specifici. In questa intervista, Gianluca Pardelli, fotogiornalista e fondatore di Soviet Tours, ci offre una panoramica approfondita sulla storia etnolinguistica della Russia.

    17. Criptoletti: lingue segrete per non farsi capire
    Jul 16 2024
    Esploriamo il mondo dei criptoletti, ovvero lingue segrete create per nascondere informazioni e rafforzare legami sociali, conosciute anche come argot, antilingue, lingue furbesche, slang o gerghi. In questa puntata viaggiamo attraverso diversi paesi scoprendo come e perché queste lingue si sviluppano e vediamo le loro caratteristiche comuni, evidenziando la creatività dei parlanti e riflettendo sul loro ruolo come strumenti di identità e resistenza.

  • 16. Aiuto, lingue in pericolo! Come avviene l'estinzione linguistica e come provare ad evitarla

    16. Aiuto, lingue in pericolo! Come avviene l'estinzione linguistica e come provare ad evitarla
    Jun 16 2024
    In questo episodio esploriamo il processo complesso e multifattoriale della scomparsa di una lingua, che avviene sempre in un contesto di contatto linguistico, osservando le cause principali che nella storia hanno portato alle estinzioni linguistiche, come la diglossia e le politiche repressive.
    Cercheremo insieme anche di capire come possiamo preservare la diversità linguistica, sottolineando come l'inclusività e la cooperazione tra comunità linguistiche siano essenziali per mantenere vive le lingue minacciate e promuovere una maggiore apertura culturale.

    15. Come si impara un'altra lingua? Di interlingua, emisferi e giochi
    May 16 2024
    In questa puntata vediamo il processo di apprendimento linguistico e le teorie che lo circondano. Parliamo di interlingua, un concetto chiave nello studio dell'acquisizione, e di emisferi cerebrali e di come poter utilizzare tutto il nostro cervello per imparare una lingua, anche grazie alla ludolinguistica, una disciplina che si occupa di utilizzare giochi e attività ludiche per facilitare l'apprendimento linguistico.Grafiche: Gianluca La BrunaLa sigla è stata prodotta da White Hot e fornita da https://freebeats.ioFonti:Beaumont, J.G.

    14. La lingua cambia il modo di percepire il mondo? L'ipotesi di Sapir-Whorf e la relatività linguistica
    Apr 16 2024
    Questo episodio esplora l'ipotesi di Sapir-Whorf e la relatività linguistica, concentrandosi sul modo in cui le lingue possono influenzare la nostra percezione e comprensione del mondo. Oggi parliamo della storia del legame tra lingua e pensiero, esaminando come la struttura linguistica possa plasmare la nostra cognizione e la nostra relazione con la realtà circostante, e vediamo sopratutto cosa ci dicono i dati sperimentali.Grafiche: Gianluca La Bruna La sigla è stata prodotta da White Hot e fornita da https://freebeats.io FONTI:Barsalou, L.

  • 13. Di lingue dei segni, LIS e abilismo

    13. Di lingue dei segni, LIS e abilismo
    Mar 16 2024
    Questo episodio esplora le lingue in modalità visivo-gestuale, smontando alcune credenze diffuse che potrebbero portarci a fraintendere la vera natura delle lingue segnate. Durante la puntata, esamineremo da vicino alcune caratteristiche generali e alcune peculiari della LIS, la lingua dei segni italiana, al fine di evidenziare che le lingue dei segni hanno strutture proprie, completamente diverse dalle lingue parlate. È fondamentale comprendere, infatti, che le lingue dei segni sono sistemi linguistici autonomi, che pur nella loro unicità condividono comunque affascinanti fenomeni evolutivi con tutte le altre lingue del mondo, indipendentemente dalla loro modalità.

    12. Finalmente il generativismo!
    Feb 16 2024
    Qui esploriamo il generativismo, la teoria sviluppata da Noam Chomsky negli anni '50 che ha rivoluzionato la nostra comprensione del linguaggio. Affronteremo insieme questioni come la natura innata della lingua, affrontando la smentita del comportamentismo linguistico e introducendo concetti come "grammatica universale" e "competenza". Attraverso aneddoti e spiegazioni, esploriamo la storia, l'evoluzione e le critiche del generativismo, mettendo in luce come questa teoria continui a influenzare la linguistica moderna.
