Italian Context

In this paper we examine the treatment of terminology in CLIL context (Content and language integrated learning), through the analysis of a corpus of subject textbooks in a foreign language and in Italian as a second language. After introducing the CLIL methodology and its application in the field of foreign language and Italian as a second language teaching as regards the Italian context, we consider the role of terminology in CLIL environment. Then we present the results of the analysis of the corpus, which consists of CLIL textbooks in English for the secondary school and of subject textbooks in Italian as a second language for non-native speakers of secondary school and adult migrants who need the qualification of Italian secondary school. The analysis of the treatment of terminology in the corpus allows to outline methodological suggestions to integrate the terminological approach into teaching practice in different CLIL contexts.

The Relationship

In this study, the relationship between fluid and crystallised intelligence and vocabulary size was investigated among Iranian students learning French as a foreign language. Studies emphasised on the importance of vocabulary size and language comprehension and tried to discover mental and intelligence factors related to this issue. To administer the present quantitative study, the Persian Adaptation of Baddeley’s (1968) Grammatical reasoning Test for Fluid Intelligence, Persian Test of Baghaei & Tabatabaee (2015) for Crystallised intelligence, and Nation’s (2012) Test of Vocabulary Size were instrumented. Population of the study was 100 intermediate learners of French language from three branches of Safir institute in Tehran. Data was analysed using SPSS and correlational tools to specify the variables correlation. Result showed that there is a significant relationship between crystallised intelligence and size of vocabulary (p<0.1), while there was no significant relationship between fluid intelligence and vocabulary size (p>0.5). It was concluded that fluid intelligence does not predict learners’ vocabulary size, but crystallised intelligence as grows gradually determines learners’ vocabulary size.

RÉSUMÉ. La langue française au Maroc appelle aujourd'hui plusieurs interrogations qui portent sur le statut, la priorité et les problèmes dans le système scolaire marocain. Le Français est officiellement présent au Maroc depuis le début du protectorat français en 1912, son statut a évolué au fil du temps : de langue officielle sous le protectorat, elle est devenue la première langue étrangère obligatoire dans le système scolaire. . Il est indéniable que les appellations relatives aux fonctions de cette langue divergent et témoignent de la complexité de la situation linguistique dans un pays où la veine plurilingue est un atout et non pas un handicap. Pourtant, il existe une assez grande imprécision au niveau des discours sur cette langue fréquemment saisie comme « langue privilégiée », mais qui cherche à accéder à un statut de reconnaissance et dont les emplois semblent très hétérogènes. Mots-clés: français langue étrangère, français langue seconde, statut, système scolaire marocain.  ABSTRACT. The French Language in Morocco calls for many questions which revolve around its status, the priority and the problems in the Moroccan school system. French has been officially present in Morocco since the beginning of the French Protectorate back in 1912. Its status has evolved through the time: from an official language under the protectorate, it has become the first compulsory foreign language in the school system. It’s undeniable that the calls relative to the functions of this language divert and witness of the complexity of the linguistic situation in a country where the multilingual veins an asset rather than a defection. Nonetheless, there is quite a big imprecision in the level of discourse on this language frequently referred to as « privileged » language but which seeks to access to a status of acknowledgment and the uses of which seem very heterogeneous. Keywords: French foreign language, French second language, Moroccan educational system, status.

This article provides a review of the various statuses of the French language in Gabon, a French-speaking country in Central Africa. It reveals a process in which different generations of Gabonese people are increasingly learning, and thus conceptualising, French as a second language rather than a foreign language. Furthermore, some are also learning and conceptualising French as a mother tongue or initial language, rather than a second language. This process of reconceptualisation has somehow been encouraged by the language policy of the colonial administration and the language policy since the attainment of independence, the latter being a continuation of the former. The final stage of this process is that the language has been adopted among the local languages within the Gabonese language landscape.
