Book Description
This book is the first comparative study of English, German, French, Russian and Hungarian anti-proverbs based on well-known proverbs. Proverbs are by no means fossilized texts but are adaptable to different times and changed values. While anti-proverbs can be considered as variants of older proverbs, they can also become new proverbs reflecting a more modern worldview. Anti-proverbs are therefore a lingo-cultural phenomenon that deserves the attention of cultural and literary historians, folklorists, linguists, and general readers interested in language and wordplay.

Book Description
In Unlocking the Power of Academic Vocabulary, Dr. Yu Ren Dong, an associate professor of English education at Queens College, City University of New York, helps secondary teachers expand their instructional repertoire to teach academic vocabulary in a systematic, meaningful, contextualized, and exciting way. Every secondary, subject-matter teacher will find strategies, easy-to-integrate activities, and tips on selecting words and planning lessons. As you teach with these strategies, your English language learners will be able to: tap into prior knowledge through cross-language transfer and cross-cultural comparisons; use concept-based vocabulary, such as analogies, metaphorical language, themes, sources, inquiry, and graphic organizers; interact with new words in context to decipher euphemisms, words with multiple meanings, connotation, and context clues; engage in interactive read-alouds, think-alouds, and wordplay; and master vocabulary through writing. Charts, student examples, suggested resources, and subject-matter vocabulary lists give teachers the hands-on tools they need to teach the concepts behind words as well as the actual definitions, spelling, and sounds. Transform your academic vocabulary instruction into an engaging, skill-building mix that carries over into students' reading, writing, thinking, and conversations in all subject areas.

Book Description
Chunks and Language Development is a teacher resource manual which is based on the Lexical Approach to language learning. Attested by classroom practices, it empowers teachers for their role as facilitators of language learning. The book can be used as an independent resource across boards and curriculum requirements. Chunks Methodology, follows the Lexical Approach, where emphasis is given to ‘strings of language’ or ‘lexical patterns‘ in promoting understanding of underlying grammatical structures. These lexical patterns, found in language use, are also known as “lexical phrases”,” lexical items”,” multi-word chunks” or just “chunks” of language. These are generally fixed expressions, similes, idioms, collocations, and phrasal verbs. In this book Manjula Duraiswamy, discusses what chunks are - various attributes of chunks, types of chunks, how they operate in a language, and the role they play in language acquisition and production. Chunks are an important feature of language use and this book describes how they can be used in the classroom; it is a readymade training tool with tasks and worksheets providing invaluable support for language learning in the classroom. A reflective approach to training is envisaged within these tasks and activities. This book would be useful for both teachers and trainers especially because all the strategies discussed here have been tried and tested by the author for nearly ten years in classrooms and training rooms.
