Celse-Murcia (2013) brings a brief example is a figurative episode where English is taught as a foreign language to beginner students. The teacher has introduced the grammatical topic of question formation explaining that Yes - No Questions are made in English by inverting the subject of a sentence with the operator in the sentence. In this initial lesson, she defines the operator as some form of the verb to be, here ARE. She has provided the class with examples, and she now gives them practice in forming Yes - No Questions. She makes a statement and tells the students to transform it into a question.

Teacher: We are studying English. Students: Are we studying English? Teacher: Yes, we are. We are using a book. Students: Are we using a book? Teacher: No, we aren’t. We are making questions. Students: Are we making questions?

Later in the morning, a girl turns to the teacher and asks:

We are going outside for recess?

The teacher silently takes note of the students' failure to invert the subject with the operator.

According to Celse-Murcia (2013), when using the term “mechanics of writing”, we usually refer to the very early stage of the letter recognition and basic rules of spelling. Just beyond this early stage, we continue to expand the spelling rules, focus on punctuation and capitalization, and cover the comprehension and production of sentences and short paragraphs. The time devoted to developing the mechanism of writing serves the acquisition of both reading and writing.
What is the goal of teaching the mechanism of reading and writing?

Defining English as an International Language English as lingua franca (ELF) has traditionally been defined as ‘interactions between members of two or more differentlinguaculturesin English,for none ofwhom English isthemothertongue’(HOUSE, 1999:74).In other words,ELFisthe study of the type oflanguage thatis used when second language speakers from different linguistic and cultural backgrounds interact. By definition, all first language speakers of English are excluded from the focus of ELF investigations. Jenkins (2006) argues quite strongly that the purpose of ELF research is essentially to document the features of interactions between second language speakers of English and in no way is meant to depict a particular variety of English that should become the standard for second language speakers.

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt reach divorce settlement

By Kanjyik Ghosh and Bipasha Dey


   Actors Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have finalized their divorce settlement, concluding an eight-year legal battle that captivated Hollywood.

   Jolie’s lawyer announced on Tuesday that the settlement had been signed and filed, though no details had been disclosed. Pitt’s representatives haven’t commented. The couple, married for only two years, separated in 2016 when Jolie cited irreconcilable differences. She initially sought full physical custody of their six children, leading to a custody battle. Pitt faced and was cleared of child abuse allegations during the dispute, with both sides accusing each other of media manipulation. They eventually agreed to equal custody through a private judge.

   Jolie, an Oscar-winning actress, was previously married to Johnny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton. Pitt, also an acclaimed actor, was married to Jennifer Aniston before meeting Jolie on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith, sparking rumors of an affair that Jolie denied.

2024 first year to pass 1.5C global warming limit

By Mark Poynting, Erwan Rivault and Becky Dale


   Global warming is nearing a critical point, as 2024 became the first calendar year with an average temperature of 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, according to The European Copernicus Climate Service.

   While it doesn’t mean the Paris Agreement target of keeping the long-term average below 1.5°C has been breached, it highlights how close we are to exceeding it. The rise in global temperatures is primarily caused by fossil fuel emissions, which continue to increase despite international agreements.

   Climate scientist Ella Gilbert emphasized the devastating effects of global warming, pointing to events like the Los Angeles wildfires and the floods in Valencia. These disasters are a clear example of extreme weather becoming more frequent and dangerous.

   However, she stressed it was not too late to act. Every reduction in emissions and degree of warming can significantly decrease the impact of future disasters. Action must come from governments, businesses, and individuals alike.
