Patterns of Code-Alternation in Nigerian Advertisement Jingles on Radio and Youtube

The alternation of codes in advertisements in the multilingual Nigerian society is a linguistic practice used by advertisers to effectively disseminate the information about the advertised products and services to diverse categories of listeners. The objectives of the study are to examine the types of code-switching used in the advertisement jingles; the various patterns of code-switching and code-mixing and their frequency of occurrence in the advertisement jingles; and the implications of these patterns of code-switching and code-mixing used by the advertisers on advertisements. The primary source of data was drawn from 60 code-switched advertisement jingles collected from 30 radio commercials and 30 online advertisements on YouTube. The 30 radio jingles were collected from 12 radio stations in the Southwestern states in Nigeria which are Osun, Oyo, Ondo, Ogun, Ekiti and Lagos. The result showed that from the three types of code-switching used in the selected advertisement jingles, there were nineteen (19) different patterns of code-switching, code-mixing and tag switching used by the advertisers. There are twelve (12) patterns of inter-sentential code-switching in which the dominant pattern is the “Naija-English Code-switching, four (4) patterns of intra-sentential code-switching in which the dominant pattern is the “Yorùbá-English Code-mixing” and three (3) patterns of tag switching in which the “English-Yorùbá Tag switching” is the dominant pattern. These patterns of code-switching, code-mixing and tag switching are functional motivated language strategies used by the advertisers for various reasons which is aimed at performing some specific functions. The study concluded that the linguistic proficiency of the advertisers in unifying the Yorùbá, Naija and English languages together in the advertisement jingles has helped to enhance a successful dissemination of information about the advertised products and services to the Nigerian people which has proffered a solution to the challenge of multilingualism. The study recommends that code-alternation should be used by advertisers, marketers, manufacturers and service providers when engaging in advertising discourses especially in multilingual societies.

Teachers’ Code-Switching in Primary EFL Classroom: Is It Good or Bad?

This study investigates the characteristics of code-switching (CS) in a Chinese primary EFL classroom, focusing on frequency and types of teachers' CS, as well as teachers' and students' attitudes toward it. Data on CS characteristics were gathered from three English classes using recording pens. Attitudinal data were obtained from separate questionnaires for teachers and students. Qualitative data (which include characteristics) were analyzed using thematic coding, while quantitative data (which include attitudes) were processed using SPSS 27.0. Results indicate that Year 4 teachers engaged in CS more frequently. Three CS types were identified, with inter-sentential switching being the most frequent in classes, followed by tag switching and intrasentential switching. Both teachers and students shared a positive attitude towards CS used by teachers in class management, subject access, and relation building. In EFL classrooms, CS, particularly inter-sentential switching, should be used to support teachers in these aspects.

A Case Study of Malaysian Radio Announcers’ Code-Switching

This study explores the code-switching patterns among Malaysian radio announcers, particularly the respective types and functions, focusing on bilingual radio announcers from Malaysia radio stations. Despite the frequency of code-switching studies in Malaysia, limited studies have focused on the use of code-switching in the context of broadcast media. The study draws on qualitative approach with a case study design to explore the code-switching patterns among Malaysian radio announcers. Data were collected from the respective online radio platforms, Hitz FM and Mix FM, where the instances of code-switching were transcribed. Utilising the typology of code-switching by Poplack (1980), the research identifies tag switching as the most prevalent form of code-switching, followed by intra-sentential switching with a preference for Malay nouns. By incorporating the theory of conversational functions of code-switching by Gumperz (1977), it was revealed that Malaysian radio announcers mainly use code-switching for interjections, followed by qualifying messages, reiteration, and quotation. Based on these findings, it can be concluded that emphasising the role of code-switching as a communication strategy is important for catering to a diverse audience.

MPLS vs. IPsec VPN: Choosing the Right Network Architecture for Enterprise WAN

The rapid expansion of the global business has increased the demand for secure, resilient and optimized WANs. Enterprises had traditionally used Wide Area Network (WAN) technologies like Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) or Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) VPNs to link geographically separated data centers. Each of these technologies provides their own benefits, based on an organization’s requirement and a combination of performance, price and security needs. This paper will dive deep to provide a comparative analysis between MPLS and IPsec VPNs technologies and the enterprise WAN scenarios in which these VPNs could be deployed. The paper describes internet circuits, their drawbacks, the benefit of MPLS circuits, and how IPsec VPN can protect public internet circuits. Last but not least, the paper aims to provide network administrators with the necessary tools to choose an appropriate circuit for their organization by providing network architecture scenarios in which MPLS or IPsec VPN over internet circuits is the best choice. Keywords— Internet Circuits, MPLS, IPSec VPN, Tunnel, Budget, Reliability, Security.

Exploring Harith Iskander's Stand-Up Comedy Acts: An Analysis of Code-Switching Types through the Framework of Poplack's Theory

Code-switching can take different forms, such as intra-sentential (within the same sentence), inter-sentential (between different sentences) or extra-sentential (across sentences) switches. Delivering the intended meaning requires adherence to grammatical and linguistic standards. In this instance, the issue or outcome of misinterpreting a joke will lead to a failed attempt at humour. Therefore, this study is conducted to categorise the many forms of code-switching that are employed in sentences using Poplack's theory (1980).

However, extra-sentential code-switching or tag switching was rarely used in his performances. To conclude, three categories of code-switching proposed by Poplack were found in Harith Iskander’s performances. For the recommendation, future researchers may employ primary data for in-depth analysis opportunities and to authentically determine the accurate frequency of code switching used in stand-up comedy performances.
