Announcements Department of Linguistics and Germanic, Slavic, Asian, and African Languages Welcome to the Department of Linguistics and Germanic, Slavic, Asian, and African Languages. Our department focuses on three areas: linguistics, cultural studies, and language learning and teaching, and is dedicated to quality teaching, research and outreach. The faculty places great emphasis on the education of students, from first-year undergraduate through advanced doctoral candidates, and on active research that not only explores cutting-edge theoretical and applied issues but is also closely linked to educational goals and engages students in the classroom. Collectively, departmental teaching and research reflect continuing concern for the local, national, and global community. By the very interdisciplinary nature of the fields represented in the department, issues of how language reflects the nature of the human mind, how language is acquired, the interaction of language and culture, minority perspective, diversity and internationalization lie at the center of our activities.

This fact proves that the problem of finding a practical and uniform method of writing African languages has aroused widespread interest, and that the efforts of the Institute towards the solution of the problem have met with considerable response. The second edition is being printed in English, French, and German. PRACTICAL ORTHOGRAPHY OF AFRICAN LANGUAGES medium of the mother tongue, and later in a language which is used over a wider area. The change from mother tongue to another language may not be very difficult for the Negro, because of his linguistic ability and because the two languages are generally closely related, and their construction, grammar, idiom, and vocabulary are often very similar. But if the two languages are written with two different systems of orthography, confusion is likely to arise, and unnecessary difficulty is placed in the path of the learner. In such cases the promotion of uniformity is clearly an important need of the moment.
