    A short, efficient route to 3-alkoxybenzynes has been developed, starting from readily available compounds. This has enabled rapid access to 6-alkoxybenzocyclobutenones, which are valuable synthetic intermediates.Bungard, Christopher J.and Morris, Jonathan

    An overview of sociolinguistics in Wales

    No full text
    The aim of the first chapter is to give an overview of sociolinguistics in Wales and introduce the research which appears in the volume. First, we consider the current linguistic situation in Wales and summarise the history of contact between Welsh and English. Second, we present a review of previous sociolinguistic research in Wales. Third, the chapters in the volume are discussed and, to close, we highlight directions for future research

    Intersecting identities in minority-language contexts: LGBTQ+ speakers of Welsh

    No full text
    In critical sociolinguistics, sociology, and social psychology, thematic and discursive approaches to data analysis have contributed to our understanding of the experiences of LGBTQ+ people and how they construct their identity (e.g. Katsiveli-Siachou, Reference Katsiveli-Siachou2021; Surace et al., Reference Surace, Kang, Kahler and Operario2022; Santos, Reference Santos2023 and chapters therein). Relatively little is known, however, about the intersection between cultural/linguistic identities and other minority gender and sexual identities (Walsh, Reference Walsh2019). Specifically, the focus has been on how LGBTQ+ speakers express their identity through language rather than on the extent to which individuals combine a specific linguistic/cultural identity with their LGBTQ+ identity. The significance of this intersection comes to the fore in the case of minority language bilingualism, where the minority language may be an important component of the speaker’s identity formation along with the idea that the speaker belongs to a wider community of minority language speakers. Furthermore, minority languages are often the subject of overt language planning measures in order to ensure their survival. In this context, the extent to which speakers who identify as LGBTQ+ (as well other minority groups) feel able to express themselves fully and be accepted within the minority language community might have direct repercussions for the vitality of that community (cf. Hornsby and Vigers, Reference Hornsby and Vigers2018). In this section, we aim to address the gap in the previous research by investigating the experiences of LGBTQ+ speakers of the Welsh language in Wales. Specifically, we aim to ascertain how LGBTQ+ speakers of Welsh view their Welsh-speaking and their LGBTQ+ identities, and the extent to which these identities are seen to intersect

    Yn y bennod hon, rydym yn ymchwilio i amrywio seinegol a ffonolegol yn lleferydd siaradwyr dwyieithog Cymraeg-Saesneg rhwng 16 a 18 mlwydd oed. Rydym yn gofyn a yw cefndir ieithyddol yn dylanwadu ar amrywio yn y ddwy iaith ac i ba raddau y mae’r nodweddion dan sylw yn debyg yn y ddwy iaith. Yn gyntaf, cyflwynir astudiaeth o lafariaid a gynhyrchwyd gan siaradwyr o Rydaman (Sir Gaerfyrddin) er mwyn canfod a oes amrywio seinegol o fewn yr ieithoedd a rhyngddynt. Yn ail, rydym yn dadansoddi /r/ yn lleferydd pobl ifainc o’r Wyddgrug (Sir y Fflint) er mwyn ymchwilio i drosglwyddo ffonolegol. Yn drydydd, rydym yn ystyried i ba raddau y gall ffactorau megis defnydd o’r Gymraeg yn y gymuned a chyffyrddiad iaith hirdymor esbonio’r patrymau a gafwyd
