Corrective feedback in French as a foreign language writings
The purpose of this paper is to identify the objectives pursued by teachers whencorrecting learners writings and show that the type of feedback used to this end is essentially the direct feedback, while other forms of feedback, presented here, are neglected. On the other hand, it seems that neither in practice nor in research corrective feedback specifically adapted to the correction of non-formal errors has been developed so far.The purpose of this paper is to identify the objectives pursued by teachers whencorrecting learners writings and show that the type of feedback used to this end is essentially the direct feedback, while other forms of feedback, presented here, are neglected.

Deutsch als Wissenschaftssprache, where are you? Einige Bemerkungen zu den Artikelüberschriften in der deutschen Onlinepresse
The role of the German language in scientific communication in Germany has long been the subject of much discussion. In the media, including online, you can find a numerous articles on the subject. Titles in the press show that the German public is very concerned about this state of affairs. The headlines already leave no illusions that the German language is displaced in the scientific research by the English language. Are we dealing with the birth of new lingua franca? Based on selected titles I tried to show how far they correspond with the content of the article. Subjected analyses allowed to discover language strategies used in the titles to illustrate the problem

Tartan Polonaise: Scottish Crime Fiction in Poland
This paper examines the position of contemporary Scottish crime fiction in the Polish polysystem. It investigates the definition of tartan noir and the challenges the genre poses in translation.Such concerns seem especially valid in the case of Denise Mina in whose Paddy Meehan series, next to the female protagonist, one of the most important characters is the city of Glasgow with its menacing architecture and the coarse language of its inhabitants. Thus the second part of this paper analyses the Polish translations of Mina’s trilogy in order to show how the dialect and other culture-specific items have been dealt with by two Polish translators

Teaching and Learning Research in Applied Linguistics: Practical Experiences and the Practice of Teaching and Learning Research based on the Concrete Example Informal Learning in Scenes: Socio-semiotics of (Heavy) Metal
Teaching and learning research appears to be both a suitable and sustainable means to achieve an up-to-date competence for university students in applied linguistics. The understanding of and dealing with new multimodal ‘glocal’ semiotic systems and codes has thus emerged as a new core competence in that field. Since formal educational institutions still adhere to traditional contents, goals and methods, it has turned out to become necessary to focus on informal learning, especially when experienced in subcultures. This approach will lead to acquiring better sociosemiotic competences. The present contribution is based on data and results of imparting of knowledge about informal socio-semiotic learning at the university Wuppertal (Germany), using documents used advanced in seminars of German studies.Teaching and learning research appears to be both a suitable and sustainable means to achieve an up-to-date competence for university students in applied linguistics.

Modularity as a key to understanding the system of language processing – cognitive models and their neurological basis
The scope of this paper is the concept of modularity of language, which is a key to understanding the complexity of human cognitive system. The author of the paper presents various arguments in favor of the thesis that both moderate and extreme modularity-related theories allow, too much greater extent than non-modularity theories, for reconstruction and description of complex structures of the language perception and production.The scope of this paper is the concept of modularity of language, which is a key to understanding the complexity of human cognitive system.
