Utilisation du Dictionnaire Chinois des Apprenants Français
Full text linkCette étude explore l’utilisation des dictionnaires par des apprenants français. Une enquête par questionnaire et des entretiens ont été menés auprès de 103 apprenants français. Les résultats révèlent une forte dépendance à l’application du dictionnaire Pleco, bien que sa langue d’explication soit l’anglais. Les principaux points investigués incluent : La majorité des apprenants souhaitent une définition dans leur langue maternelle ou une combinaison de français et de chinois, plutôt qu’en anglais; Pleco est l’outil le plus utilisé en raison de sa facilité d’utilisation, de son fonctionnement hors-ligne, de son vaste contenu lexical et de ses fonctions pratiques; La fréquence d’utilisation de Pleco est assez élevée, servant principalement à rechercher le sens du mot, vérifier la grammaire, la prononciation et l’ordre d’écriture.
Analysis of the Research Objects and Application Scope of Criminal Execution Law
Full text linkThe research objects of criminal execution law mainly include the theories, institutions, and practices of criminal execution. Criminal execution law should be the discipline that studies the law of criminal execution, with its main focus being the examination of criminal law enforcement. On the other hand, the law of criminal execution refers to the legislation that regulates criminal execution. Therefore, the application scope of criminal execution law should encompass both the legal regulatory scope of the law of criminal execution and the corresponding practices of criminal execution. The research objects of criminal execution law define the boundaries of its application scope and determine its effectiveness. With societal development and changes in criminal justice practices, new issues and demands related to criminal execution continue to emerge. These developments, in turn, drive the expansion and renewal of the research objects of criminal execution law. The research objects and the application scope of criminal execution law share a relationship of mutual reinforcement and coordinated development. Analyzing the connotations and extensions of these research objects and their application scope helps promote their synergy, thereby further achieving the goals of criminal justice
Cyber Security and Its Implications on Financial Fraud in Deposit Money Banks in Yenagoa Metropolis, Bayelsa State
Full text linkThis study examines the critical role of cyber security in mitigating financial fraud within deposit money banks in Yenagoa Metropolis, Bayelsa State. As digital banking platforms proliferate, the increasing sophistication of cyber-attacks poses significant threats to financial institutions, compromising customer trust and economic stability. This research investigates the prevalence, nature, and implications of cyber-enabled financial fraud, focusing on the vulnerabilities exploited in banking systems and their economic consequences. Employing a mixed-methods approach, data were collected through surveys and interviews with bank officials, cybersecurity experts, and customers, alongside an analysis of reported fraud cases. Findings reveal that weak authentication protocols, phishing attacks, and insider threats are primary conduits for financial fraud, exacerbated by inadequate cybersecurity infrastructure and low digital literacy among customers. The study underscores the urgent need for robust cybersecurity frameworks, including advanced encryption, multi-factor authentication, and regular staff training, to safeguard financial transactions. Furthermore, it highlights the necessity for collaborative efforts between banks, regulatory bodies, and technology providers to enhance resilience against cyber threats. The implications of these findings suggest that strengthening cybersecurity measures not only reduces financial losses but also fosters customer confidence and regulatory compliance. This research contributes to the discourse on securing financial systems in emerging economies, offering actionable recommendations for policymakers and banking institutions in Yenagoa Metropolis to combat cyber-enabled financial fraud effectively
Crypto Funding Social Projects and Redistribution in a Costa Rican Rural Town
Full text linkThe present article explores the interconnections between North-South relationships, transnational gentrification and crypto funding for community projects in the newly glocal, rural community of San Salvador del Barú in Tinamaste, Pérez Zeledón, Costa Rica. Through in-situ observations and semi-structured in-depth interviews, this research seeks to understand the limitations in the use of cryptocurrency donations as well as the possible misuse of them to further reproduce neocolonial global disparities. In doing so, it sheds light on current Costa Rican tourist-migrant-expat phenomenon of land appropriation as well as new socio-cultural relations between locals and foreigners. From a critical Latin American perspective, it offers possible pathways to transforming globalized relationships by tapping into the branch of cryptocurrencies that promises decentralized and accessible funds

Understanding Literary Content Through Context: A Discourse Analysis of Donald Trump’s Inaugural Speech
Full text linkThis study employs a critical discourse analysis (CDA) approach to examine the linguistic features, rhetorical devices, and discursive strategies employed in Donald Trump's inaugural speech. Hence, the objective as such is to, analyze how the context of Trump's Inaugural speech impacts its literary content, including rhetorical devices, tone, and language, and to investigate how the historical and cultural context of Trump's Inaugural speech shapes its meaning, uncovering power dynamics, ideologies, and cultural references through discourse analysis. The analysis reveals that Trump's speech is characterized by simple and declarative sentences, repetitive metaphors, and pronoun usage, which create a sense of directness, clarity, and shared purpose. Specifically, the study finds that Trump's speech features 15 instances of simple sentences, 20 instances of declarative sentences, and 10 instances of pronoun usage. Additionally, the speech employs metaphor (3 instances), repetition (5 instances), and antithesis (2 instances) to create a sense of urgency and momentum. Furthermore, the analysis reveals that Trump's speech reflects nationalist (5 instances), populist (3 instances), and conservative (2 instances) ideologies. This study contributes to a nuanced understanding of the role of language in shaping political reality and highlights the importance of contextualizing literary content to uncover its underlying ideologies/power dynamics
Exploring the Application of Artificial Intelligence Technology in Adolescent Mental Health Education
Full text linkArtificial intelligence technology provides an efficient and innovative solution for adolescent mental health education, and effectively builds a safe and private psychological support space by virtue of its accurate and whole-day response. This study discusses three aspects of application timing and scenarios, behavioral norms, and risk prevention and control: (1) the scenarios and timing of using AI technology for mental health education in families, schools, and adolescents need to be treated separately; (2) The behaviors and norms of applying AI technology in adolescent mental health education need to be governed by national laws and industry norms, with clear legal provisions and technical standards to ensure that they meet ethical standards, effectiveness, and safety requirements; (3) AI technology must prevent user dependence and potential harm in its application and requires a corrective mechanism. Additionally, the study points out that technological breakthroughs need to overcome technical bottlenecks such as data quality and emotional understanding, as well as institutional challenges such as privacy ethics and legal regulation. It also looks forward to future development prospects in multimodal integration, universal services, and ecological construction
Nigeria’s Struggle for Development: A Reflection on the Muhammadu Buhari Administration (2015-2023)
Full text linkThis study delves into the issue of development which Nigeria has been grappling with in its efforts at enhancing the welfare and wellbeing of its citizens and taking its rightful place in the comity of nations. It particularly analyzes the eight-year administration of President Muhammadu Buhari vis-à-vis its struggle for development in order to fulfill its campaign promises, satisfy the hopes and yearnings of Nigerians, fix the already badly-damaged economy and set the country on the path of greatness. The paper infers that the Buhari administration fell short of people’s expectations, as it was marred by poverty, corruption, nepotism, insecurity of monumental dimension, social injustice and economic stagnation, with development at its lowest ebb. Consequently, the paper notes that Nigeria requires a president with sound intellect, leadership acumen and strong commitment to achieve the desired development
The Unbearable Weight of the Male Gaze: Kundera’s Biasness for Masculinity in The Unbearable Lightness of Being
Full text linkThis study addresses the gender bias and reflections on the masculinity of Milan Kundera in his novel The Unbearable Lightness of Being from Laura Mulvey’s iconic male gaze theory. The study uses qualitative methodology, including close textual reading and critical discourse analysis. As the study focuses on the differences in Kundera’s use of linguistic dichotomy for Tereza and Tomas and demonstrates how Kundera’s portrayal of infidelity and its acceptance in male characters perpetuates patriarchal norms and contributes to the systemic objectification and oppression of women, the research reveals that Kundera’s narrative techniques, his word choice, and characterizations align with patriarchal norms. Kundera portrays men as a decisive, dominating force through the character Tomas, whereas Tereza is shown as emotionally reliant and docile. Moreover, Tomas’s infidelities are depicted as natural extensions of his masculinity, whereas female infidelity is stigmatized which highlights the double standards of Kundera in the portrayal of gender and sexuality. Sabina’s identity is still often framed concerning men, particularly Tomas and Franz. The language used to describe her also reflects the male gaze and objectification. This research serves as a helpful reminder of the necessity to identify and evaluate the male gaze in literature while promoting more inclusive and powerful stories that subvert patriarchal power structures and conventional gender norms.
Decoding the Gap: Language Service Proficiencies of Multilingual Translators and Market Requirements in the AIGC Epoch
Full text linkThis paper explores the discrepancies between the language service capabilities of multilingual translation talents and the demands of the translation market in the context of Artificial Intelligence Generated Content (AIGC). Based on these discrepancies, it proposes the reconstruction of the cultivation path for multilingual translation talents. With the deepening of globalization and the increasing frequency of cross-cultural communication, the market demand for multilingual translation services is continuously growing. Moreover, the rapid development of AIGC technology has brought new challenges and opportunities to the translation industry, especially in areas such as post-editing of machine translation, multimodal translation, data analysis and management. However, traditional translation talents have shown insufficient capabilities in meeting these emerging demands.
