Capturing our Sound(scapes) - 21.02.2022 & 26.09.2022

The creative project Capturing our sound(scapes) - diverse linguistic landscapes in our schools focuses on linguistic diversity in schools and its potentials. On Mother Tongue Day, 21.02.2022, the project was launched and on European Day of Languages, 26.09.2022, RUEG and LUD invite to Humboldt Lab for a theme day on multilingualism at schools.

On the occasion of the European Day of Languages, RUEG and LUD turn the Humboldt Lab into a place of multilingualism and its research in action.

With the Project “Capturing our sound(scapes) – vielfältige Sprachlandschaften an unseren Schulen, students and teachers captured the linguistic diversity in their schools. Join us for the presentation of the best projects and get inspired by multilingual teaching and educational materials at information booths.

In her talk, Prof. Dr. Rosemarie Tracy will illustrate how valuable multilingualism is for both learners and teachers. A panel discussion will approach the question of why and how multilingualism and its appreciation should be integrated more into lessons and curricula.

Find all information and free tickets hier.

Happy birthday, W.! - short film on registers

hb w
Visitors at the premiere of "Happy birthday, W.!" on Mother Language Day, 2020

Download with english subtitles, 5 mins, 200 MB.

 

Summary: A young actress prepares before a film shooting. While waiting, she receives birthday calls from different people: her grandparents, a friend, an important sponsor, and her boyfriend she had previously argued with. Even though she talks about a similar topic (her birthday) with everyone, she does this differently, depending on the interlocutor, using different languages, dialects and styles, and also different body language. (Not wanting to speak also plays a special role.)
