 RESPECTED SIR,

MOVIE REVIEW – “MIDNIGHT'S CHILDREN” A 

                                FILM BY DEEPA MEHTA.

 

“Midnight's Children” film is the famous novel by  

Salman Rushdie. The film is directed by Deepa 

Mheta. The novel was published in 1981.

The film all about the independence and partition of 

India and Pakistan.

The film tells story of the two boys, Saleem and 

Siva. Saleem is the protagonist of the story. They are 

born at the stroke of 12 midnight on 14^th August 

1947. so symbolically we can say that it was a birth 

of two nations India and Pakistan its about 

telepathic power.

Midnight's Children's we know its all about cast 

system with richness and poorness. we know all 

story tells about two child Saleem and Siva, and 

both are born in one place in hospital. So that time 

Nurse change this two child, so rich to poor and poor 

to rich.

Saleem faces many problem when he and his family 

came to know that he is not the real son of Mr. and 

Mrs. Sinai. So Saleem says that

 

“I have many families and no families.”

So we can say that the character of Saleem is the 

victim of post colonialism.

So, this film shows the journey of two individuals 

and their struggles into their live, and we can find 

tragedy,romance and comedy also threw this film. 

And Salman Rushdie also uses magic-realism trick 

“AABRAKADABRA” which gives us aesthetic delight 

while watching the movie.

“SECOND LANGUAGE ACQUISITION” BY DAVID NUNAN

 

 Respected sir,

 “SECOND LANGUAGE ACQUISITION” BY DAVID NUNAN

                                         INTRODUCTION

 

David Nanun is an Australian linguist who has focused on the teaching of English.

He has began his career in teaching English as a second language in Sydney.

Before referring to SLA lets see what is first language and second language.

                              First Language (L1):-

One's native language, the language learned by children and passed from one generation to the next mother tongue, natural language.

                             Second Language (L2):-

Second Language acquisition :-

 

Refer to the processes through which someone acquires one or more second or foreign languages.

There are two type of contrastive analysis hypothesis :-

1). Negative Transfer :- such an error can be explained.

2). Positive Transfer :- Rules are similar for L1 and L2.

                 PRODUCT – ORIENTED RESEARCH :-

 

During the 1970s series of empirical investigations in to learner language were carried out which became as the 'MORPHEME ORDER'.

Meaning of Morpheme Order : - “Minimum meaningful language unit”.

 

                              TWO RESEARCHES

Dulay and Bart (1974)

Rejected the Hypothesis proposing instesd a hypothesis entitled L2 acquisition equals L1 acquisition.

                          Briefly the CA states that :-

 

While the child is learning an L2 , he/she will tend to use his native language structures in his L2 speech and where structures in his L1 and his L2 differ he will goof.

Eg: - Spanish children learning English should tend to say wants Miss Jones for He wants miss Jones.

Description of Krashen's Theory of Second Language Acquisition consist of five main hypotheses :-

1). The acquisition – Learning Hypothesis;

2). The monitor Hypothesis;

3). The natural order Hypothesis;

4). The input Hypothesis;

5). The affective filter Hypothesis;

In the 1980 Stephen Krashen the best known figure in the SLA

field.

                                         SLA :-

 

Conscious learning and Subconscious acquisition.

Conscious learning focus  on Identify instances of rules violation, Grammatical rules, Enabling to memories rules.

Subconscious acquisition is a very different process, facilitating the acquisition of rules at subconscious level.

                                           CONCLUSION

In this chapter, David Nunan was describe the emergence of SLA as a discipline from early work in CA, error analysis and inter language development.

Centralism other language can be seen as a linguistic regionalism. After freedom from Britain the main two question aroused.

1). Modern thinking

2). Science and technology

3). Language of reason

Hindi-English-Sanskrit.

“TESL” came out when English was expanding world wide since it started to be used for trade. Because of the important of this language globally, in panama, English has become the main tool, boosting the economy and tourism.

"ISI NO HATH"

             
                                                                         

RESPECTED SIR.....

 

 

"ISI NO HATH" is a very simple short story by MAHENDARSING  PARMAR. It is satire on the 'Religion'. This story all about religion and life of common people. How people are blindly follow religion and people are ready to do everything for religion and temple. And people make big big temple on land so, it is a lost of land and also our time.

Now temple is a business in 21century because every people was blind for our religion and our god.

I would like to one quote in Gujarati related to this story....

              "Ghar ni mma ne radave and mandirni mma ne chundary odhade".

And i also give one Hindi Bhajan's lines like.........

             "Kabhi mma bap ki seva kihi nahi bad pooja karvane se kya fayda".

So now people not care for our family and live people but blindly follow of religion.

Now i would like to share one reality in our world.......

                          Temple of "Sai baba" while Sai baba was live in life no one is care but now after Sai baba's death make a very big big temple and daily gives one K.G. golden in temple. So, it is a reality for our world.

English in India.

 

English plays a double role in India

Role Of English In India:-

 

After 1947 institutions and instruments were retained in India.

A new national symbolized the emergency.

 

There was earlier aspiration and pressures to make Hindi as national 

 language but English was official language.

 

It symbolized pride, new, value and power as well new national language.

 

Finaly Hindi was selected as Devngri script.

 

Because of multinational character of India.

 

Official language of the state with provision for continuded use of english language.

 

English Language Has Two Side:-

 

(1). Satan:- God Of Evil.

 

(2). Saraswati:- God Of Knowldge.

 

The side of saraswati importance of English language.

 

1. English is the language of knowledge.

2. English is the linguafraca.

3 It is to be a prestigious language and is in great demand.

Satanic side of English Language:-

 

1. English for elite.

2. Political weapon for Non- Hindi elite.

3. English is colonial language.

4. Those who take Indian language as medium they are a small minority and poor student.

 

This is now English language has both side Satan and Saraswati.

Respected Sir,

 

(1) “ The Wast Land” Written by T. S. Eliot is give idea about individual talent and tradition. Concept of human being myths and philosophy. Nietzsche about super human and other Eliot’s idea’s about forward to looks. The image is overcome into T.S.Eliot’s mind to connect with myths and Nietzsche’s connect with philosophy.

(2) Gustaf Hellstrom of the Swedish academy he says to salvation of man lie. Eliot views are more philosophical and it is believe in religious thinking. If follow the traditional way. Then Eliot believe in human law but Freud believe in individual thinking

Derrida's Concept of Deconstruction.

Respected sir,

 Deconstruction Meaning:-

                                             A method of critical analysis of philosophical and literary language which emphasizes the internal workings of language and conceptual systems, the relational quality of meaning, and the assumptions implicit in forms of expression.

                                           Derrida's concept of the deconstruction in which define that the deconstruction meaning is arbitrary , rational, and systematic or convention.Derrida himself refused to defined that term deconstruction thought student and scholar what something which is clear cut so that it is very difficult to define deconstruction.

                                                                   “Mohobatte” is one of the best example of Deconstruction. In this movie a very common  or popular education System is challange by the creator. 

                                                 Thank you....
