    The current extract is the reflection of human psychology and modern linguistics analysis of human language, which gave birth to neo-criticism and practical criticism. It paved the way for other ideology that emerged in the field of linguistics, called stylistics the core sub-discipline of stylistics is semantics i.e. "the discipline of linguistics which deals with the study of the meanings." The most important rule which is discussed in the study of semantics is "collocation rule." If it is not followed, the deviation of this general rule is occurred and the excessive deviation leads towards the construction of structure less text.

    Full text link
                    This research proposes an operational approach to a metaphorical framing analysis while using large-scale data of western media. This study employs both qualitative and quantitative methods to critically and discursively analyze the coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict by two prominent Western media outlets, CNN and The Guardian, over a ten-month period from 7th October 2023 to 10th July 2024. Focusing specifically on the metaphors of “war” and “genocide,” the research aims to uncover how these terms frame the conflict and shape public perception. The analysis reveals that the term “war” appears 443 times, constituting 0.45% of the corpus, while “genocide” occurs 377 times, or 0.38% of the corpus. These findings highlight the significant role of these terms in framing the conflict as a persistent state of military aggression and a moral crisis, respectively. Collocation analysis shows that “war” and “genocide” shares a narrative that evokes strong emotional responses and images of cruelty, victimization, and brutality. The concordance lines of “war” frequently depict the conflict as damaging and urgent, with negative semantic prosody emphasizing large-scale and long-term struggles. Similarly, “genocide” carries a negative semantic prosody, framing the conflict in terms of extreme moral and humanitarian crises, and evoking accusations of intentional acts of brutality. Additionally, thematic and content analysis reveals key themes associated with these metaphors, displaying their narratives. The study concludes that Western media frames the conflict through a wide range of perspectives, significantly influencing both regional and global interpretations. &nbsp

    In the early third decade of the 20th century and the period after that, the dominant class of Urdu writers and poets was the product of religious madrasas, and the leadership and dominance of literature were in the hands of this class. It went into the hands of the likes. It was a sign of moral failure that the youth influenced by communism tried to exclude from the realm of literature any literature in which religion was mixed or morality was involved. Religious poets and writers were given the names of millas and sermons on the basis of prejudice; novels and fictions written on sexual themes were considered original literature. In these conditions, literature was divided into two parts; morals and manners became anathema to abiologists; however, the number of readers of healthy literature did not decrease. Until a time, the literary writings and works of scholars were considered masterpieces of literature

    Research has been done on gender and English performance between students and teachers regarding classroom interactions and written assignments. It looked at the way interruptions occurred, polite strategies, assertiveness, and language choices. Through convenient sampling, students and teachers (M/F = 40; 20:20) were enrolled. The writer examined students and their teachers within fifteen conversation days. Their conversation was scored according to a checklist approved by the experts, who cited specific goals that voters and other citizens might have in mind. They were also interviewed to gain a deeper insight into the style of their conversations. In classroom settings, there were gender-based differences in communication style between students and teachers, as a study showed. Male students interrupted more often and made more rude interruptions, whereas female students were more prone to two supportive interruptions. Female students/teachers were considered more assertive but still polite, as they were observed to support their interruptions with advice and use complex language to create a cooperative and respectful classroom atmosphere.
