Where Youth,[object Object],DISCOURSE,[object Object],and Adults Collide,[object Object],Sherilyn Carr,[object Object],ID # 00048321,[object Object],LDP Assignment 3,[object Object],Due 9 October, 2009,[object Object]
Collision of worlds / words,[object Object],Youth don’t understand older adults,[object Object],“what they went through isn’t the same” (13 yr old),[object Object],“times have changed” (18 yr old),[object Object],Older adults don’t understand youth,[object Object],“they haven’t experienced the things you have that have influenced your thinking” (72 yr old),[object Object]
Why don’t they understand each other when surely they’re speaking the same language?,[object Object]
But it’s not the same language!,[object Object],How would you ask the following to get ready to go to the shops?,[object Object],A 2 ½ year old child,[object Object],A teenager,[object Object],A 40 year old,[object Object],A 65 year old,[object Object],How do you react in the following situations where you are delayed?,[object Object],in a supermarket queue,[object Object],at the doctors surgery,[object Object],waiting for a friend,[object Object],waiting for your partner,[object Object]
We use language appropriate to the context of a social interaction,[object Object],“A form of language that varies according to participants, settings, and topics” (Berko Gleason & Bernstein Ratner, 2009, p 479),[object Object],[object Object],[object Object]
Adolescent Registers continued,[object Object],Syntactically,[object Object],Non-standard use of discourse markers such as “like” which may be used in a variety of ways:,[object Object],approximative, exemplificatory, metalinguistic, hesitational/linking,[object Object],(Stenstrom, Andersen & Hasund, 2002, p 117),[object Object],Semantically,[object Object],Use of  coined words, slang etc to provoke and otherize outsiders while retaining bonds with peers (Stenstrom, Andersen & Hasund, 2002, p 67-68),[object Object]
Similarities in the responses ,[object Object],“what they went through isn’t the same” (13 yr old),[object Object],“they haven’t experienced the things you have that have influenced your thinking” (72 yr old),[object Object],Use of pronouns,[object Object],“they” to divide into us and them groups,[object Object],“you” and “yours” to include the listener as part of the speaker’s group ,[object Object]
Similarities in the responses continued,[object Object],“what they went through isn’t the same” (13 yr old),[object Object],“times have changed” (18 yr old),[object Object],“they haven’t experienced the things you have that have influenced your thinking” (72 yr old),[object Object],Views of the world around them,[object Object],their agreement that the experiences of life are different for both age groups,[object Object]
Similarities in the responses continued,[object Object],Views of the world around them continued,[object Object],their presumption of the other age group being ignorant,[object Object]
Okay, they can be different – why?,[object Object],“Oneself-identity is inextricably bound up with one’s language, for it is in the communicative process – the process of sending out messages and having them “bounced” back – ,[object Object],that such identities are confirmed, shaped and reshaped.”,[object Object],(Brown, 2007, p 69),[object Object]
Youth vs. Adult Registers,[object Object]
Is there any hope of avoiding collision?,[object Object],We use a variety of language registers throughout life,[object Object],Need to recognise the register of adolescents as valuable,[object Object],As with new student-centred method of education  (Study Guide, 2009, p 21)  perhaps adults need to relinquish their domination over youth ,[object Object]
References,[object Object],Berko Gleason, J. & Bernstein Ratner, N. (2009).  The development of language (7th ed.). Boston: Pearson Education,[object Object],Brown, H.D. (2007).
