FOREWORD
Disctphnes merge, and then com erge. Disciplines also emerge.
Merger or disctplinc~ could be best instanttaled by ,~,·flat was once
mcknarnl'd ns 'hyphenated' lmgutstlcs (classical cases hke 'SocJO
ImgUJsucs' and 'Psycho lingUistics' provHk good examples. the latest
~mg 'Geo-lmguistics' growmg on the ashes of what was once rccogni7cd
as 'Dtalect geography'). These compounded disctplincs show signs of
merger \iery clear! y as the stitches arc quite \ tsible. It takes long time to
drop the hyphens and get more mtegrated. However, pracutioners of
these dtsctpltnes had thctr own dogma and lcammg history because of
whiL"h they would usually try to push (or pull) the conJOlllOO words (and
worldc;J apal1 (so much so that separate approaches would emerge).
But m the htstory of language sctences. several dtsctphnes have
emerged and ha \ c made thct r mark l'hev- haH' emerged through a
or
longer process hcmg together in a mutuall~ benefictal manner. In
hard core areas. Phon~ttcs and Scmanltcs arc two dassical examples. In
applted language science Language Teachmg & Testmg IS by far the
best c\amplc of tius k1nd. Here too. one has seen ideas cmanattng from
ditferent dJsc1plines and convergtng to create a common base ~orne
areas in Lmguisttcs had always provJdl.-J attra~.:tive meet111g grounds for
scholar::. with varied tnterests to work on Some others emerged. but got
sidcltncd again. (for instance, the once popular. Morphology. which
bounced back as Word ~om1ation. carne up agam as a pomt of focu~ wJth
its ongtnaltttlel However, there have also heen dJsc1plines whrch grew
OUt of ltngul-.llt:" or from dts"alt!>laclton o!' II, but lalt"l assumed a mud1
bigger canvas large enough to mvolve people who would like to be mtles
away from grammar The emergence llf Semtolics with Saussurc. later
practtsed as Scm1ology by modem greats as Rolland Banhcs ts a case tn
hand.
The areas such as Language Teaching always attracted the faculty
at the Central lnstitute of [ndian Languages. and as a result. a lot of
mtcresttng matenals got produced l'hc Jnterrnethate Course m Kannada
has been produced in the same senes by the Southern Regional Language
Centre of the lnstJlule. They cover a wide range of wnting styles usoo in
""
the language so that both teachers and second language learners using
them benefit from the lessons The texts used here are not mcn:ly
instances of ideal writing styles. they arc also used to teach certain
grammattcal patterns and lexical coinages
TI1c language teaching matcnals produced by the Institute have so
far been tned out through a senes of I 0 months lntens1vc Training
Programme currently offered m the seven reg10nal centreb of the lnstttute
at three levels: Bas1c, Intermediate and AdvanceJ courses The present
book 1s suttable to be used not only for such language learners who are to
be taught as a part of our programme, but also for those who have had
tntroductton to the language through a fonnal system. and yet have not
had chance to go beyond the bas1cs.
I congratulate the teachers who have used and perfected the
matcnal as much a.<; the aulhor. Dr.M.N.Leelavath1 . The suggestions,
cummems, cnllclsms from all those who may use this teachmg matenal
will be most welcome.
