Micheal Rosen- Word Of Mouth
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b05077ks
This episode of Word of Mouth is about Micheal Rosen and Professor Tanya Byron discussing how parents using language to talk to their children. They explore how the way parents talk to children, how its evolving and how this effects child language in the long term.
The Linguist Dr. Laura Wright is introduced and she says that it looks as though we are moving towards a more casual and informal language. She also explains how she feels as though we feel unauthorative when making commands through speech and discusses how this idea relates to a 'friend-parent' relationship to children rather than a 'parent parent' relationship.
-'No' unhelpful principal.
Michael Rosen- 'positive reinforcement' in language to encourage children rather than put them down. Say 'thats great' rather than 'thats not good'
Some parents don't talk or with their children.
Dr Wright- Irish social research institute- found that parents who talk to children whilst doing something or being busy - enables children to problem solve and this seemed to result in children developing cognitively through language if not better than parents who don't do this.
-How we play with children- idea that non directive play is better with helping children develop language. Adults sit back and narrates what the child is doing so they're giving description and reinforcement of the behaviour.

Do you use slang?
Dr. Laura Wright, linguistic at the University of Cambridge says "were all users of slang to a greater or lesser degree." Laura uses the words to describe slang in this generation as a 'groove' or when you use slang its 'digging the scene.' They both explain how they used words when they were younger such as super and great. This implies that slang has evolved as to us, now words such as great, super and fun are more formal and words such as 'lol' are used as slang.
What is slang?
"Slang is counter language, which is the direct steal of the counter culture from the 60's"
"I think slang's essence is opposition, is subversion" says Jonathon Green.
If you break down slangs lexis and vocabulary, 75% of it is reversing and twisting standard English. This is why many young people use it as it is a shortened,easier version of formal language. Slang is usually formed from words that already exist they have just been developed into a new language.
What is meant by bad language?
Jonathon Green says " I don't think you can have bad language" This tells us that the objective of the word spoken is dependant on the speaker and how they say it. Language is used to express feelings such as anger and emotion and so thoughts and feelings are used to turn positive language in to negative.
Slang number percentage of use
Drugs-4000
Poor- 3300
Policemen-1000
Hit-700
Mad-776
RAF slang
Prang = an onomatopoeia word which they must have invented or evolved
Blightey comes from a hindu word
Laura says "standard language doesn't trickle down it pushes upwards, everything comes from the groundswell of most of the speakers, in the sense that otherwise wed all be trying to speak like royalty. Effectively the thing about standard English its a very, very slowly developing dialect."
Words like 'bling' migrated upwards- Laura
Bling is slang -Michael "It's fine for politicians to use this word non-ironically"
"slang starts in the gutter and there's very little upper-class slang" Jonathon Green
Slang is jargon?
