It really is a great movie! But In that frame 3:11 i think Gavin Elster looks more like a small devil almost standing on Scottie' shoulder ready to fill him with lies ; )
@likemaria
@likemaria Ай бұрын
Yes, he really traps Scottie in his web of lies. I think the comparison between Elster and Hitchcock is also really interesting - Elster controls Scottie in the same way Hitchcock controls the film

I have just received my GCSE results and got a grade 6 in English Language. However, my school didn't provide GCSE Literature and so I haven't got any grade in it. I quite like the idea of being an English teacher in secondary schools as a future career but I was wondering if I would need any form of Literature qualification? Or could I get away with just having English Language?
@likemaria
@likemaria Ай бұрын
Hi there, Well done for your GCSE result! It's great that you're already thinking about teaching. You would need to check the admissions requirements of different courses to see if you need Literature. I suspect that many will require a good knowledge of Literature and some will want you to have a formal qualification in it. You will need to think carefully about what sort of teacher you would like to be, as that will influence A Level choices. You can explore lots of options at degree level such as English and Linguistics or Communications etc. These will open many doors. However, if your main aim is to be an English secondary school teacher in the UK, I would strongly advise you to have English Literature as a part of your future studies - or maybe get the GCSE qualification independently. Good luck with the next steps! Maria

Thank you so much, my progress exam is around the corner and I really wasn't very confident with my CLA pieces. I was constantly making the same mistakes of not putting the right things in the right paragraphs (e.g Mixing phonology terms with discourse). My teacher's style of teaching really doesn't suit me. So thank you very much for this!

Hi how can you use MLU in an exam. Do you have to workout out for the whole transcript or can you just do the parent mlu for one utterance and compare to child one
@likemaria
@likemaria 5 ай бұрын
Hi there, good question - it would depend on the transcript and what you are being asked.... Just doing one utterance comparisons is not really worth it, as the the wider the sample the more accurate the finding - so you should do the whole transcript. HOWEVER, in the exam you don't really have time so, expressing knowledge of MLU would be good with a suggestion (by eyeballing the whole text) that it is low or high. You can then comment on the stage of development and focus on the level of grammatical sophistication. Good luck!

I would say “Fartov and Belcher” are not senselessly lewd, but are a parody of the publishers Chatto and Windus. Lucky is in the long line of (murderously) pedantic comic figures. There was a whole progression of these benighted intellectual figures whose rants verged on the murderous. A common vaudeville trope, out of touch “intellectuals” verging on the deadly, with their malapropisms and their incomprehensible jargons. Dr. Irwin Corey might be a more recent example. And of course, this parody of rarefied and out of touch intellectualism is recapitulated whenever an academic attempts an exegesis of it. There isn’t much “justice” in the play, but maybe an exception is the just enslavement and subjugation of Lucky, as it’s clear that he would happily destroy his audience for the sake of his increasingly unhinged rant.
