Abstract:

This edited volume "Advances in Hindi Language Teaching and Applied
Linguistics" brings together some carefully carried out experimental studies
which diverge to explore new possibilities in the field of Hindi language
teaching and applied Hindi linguistics. The 16 peer-reviewed research papers
that make up this book come from a range of empirical perspectives and are
arranged into two parts. The first part of the book contains 9 pieces which
provide a snapshot of current research on the teaching of Hindi as second or
foreign language. As a result, the book consists of papers written by both SLA
researchers and experienced teachers of Hindi as a foreign language who with
their first-hand knowledge assess the effectiveness of various teaching
methods used in the classrooms. The second part consists of 7 articles which
deal with Hindi grammar, bilingualism and code-mixing in Hindi as well as
usages of Hindi in Indian politics. Through their in-depth analysis of
empirical data from Hindi syntax, Theban and Popârlan claim that the Hindi
language exhibits some unique syntactic typological characteristics which no
other language does which every linguist interested in typological studies
should become aware of. In addition, the volume includes also a detailed
account of the phonology of Kanauji, one of major dialects of Hindi. Together
these papers provide a rich and comprehensive account of the vitality of
current research on Hindi.
