地理环境与英汉语言思维顺序差异考量

不同的地理环境,造就不同的个体思维过程。个体思维过程通过语言体现出来,慢慢形成民族的集体无意识。这种集体无意识具有传承性,又反过来决定了一代又一代人的思维过程,最后演变成民族思维过程,因此生活环境不同的民族就会有不同的思维过程。英国的地理气候条件远不如中国,他们对自然的关注要多于中国,这样认识客观世界的过程就有别于中国,也就形成了不同的思维过程,表现在语言形式上,英语是形合语言,汉语是意合语言。

论教师的语言美及语言修养

语言是人类特有的用来表达意思、交流思想、沟通信息、联络情感的工具。教师职业的特殊性决定了教师要把好语言关,在传授知识、技能的同时,给学生以关的享受。教育教学实践中教师的语言体现着境界关、心灵关、震撼美和艺术美,作为教师,必须从内到外加强语言修养。     

“诗意栖息”如何成为可能

海德格尔的“诗意栖息”是指居住于存在的澄明之境中,存在通过语言给出澄明,存在通过人成为存在,语言是人类存在的家园;同时,语言也是人类“诗意栖息”的家,诗意在人类语言中成为可能。只有“栖息”在“诗意”中,人们才能返璞归真、回归自我。     

大学英语教学中的文化导入

Online patient feedback as a safety valve: An automated language analysis of unnoticed and unresolved safety incidents

Safety reporting systems are widely used in healthcare to identify risks to patient safety. But, their effectiveness is undermined if staff do not notice or report incidents. Patients, however, might observe and report these overlooked incidents because they experience the consequences, are highly motivated, and independent of the organization. Online patient feedback may be especially valuable because it is a channel of reporting that allows patients to report without fear of consequence (e.g., anonymously). Harnessing this potential is challenging because online feedback is unstructured and lacks demonstrable validity and added value. Accordingly, we developed an automated language analysis method for measuring the likelihood of patient-reported safety incidents in online patient feedback. Feedback from patients and families (n = 146,685, words = 22,191,427, years = 2013–2019) about acute NHS trusts (hospital conglomerates; n = 134) in England were analyzed. The automated measure had good precision (0.69) and excellent recall (0.98) in identifying incidents; was independent of staff-reported incidents (r = −0.04 to 0.19); and was associated with hospital-level mortality rates (z = 3.87; p < 0.001). The identified safety incidents were often reported as unnoticed (89%) or unresolved (21%), suggesting that patients use online platforms to give visibility to safety concerns they believe have been missed or ignored. Online stakeholder feedback is akin to a safety valve; being independent and unconstrained it provides an outlet for reporting safety issues that may have been unnoticed or unresolved within formal channels.
