Title: Virtual Linguistics Campus
Body: From http://linguistlist.org/issues/21/21-3484.html The Virtual Linguistics Campus invites you to make use of the wealth of linguistics data, in particular its huge language index, which does not only display languages via arbitrary “pins” on a map but by means of associating languages with their speakers. The VLC uses structured language data, i.e. data that is cross-linguistically identical and allows cross-linguistic comparison. (see language index data sheets). Each individual entry of a language consists of: - General information - Details about the speaker with a greeting message - Typological Details (with add. sounds, i.e. Russian palatalization, Chinese tone, Turkish vowel harmony etc.) - Information about the writing system - Morpho/Syntax: A fixed set of words, phrases and clauses (with interactive sound) - The story the North wind and the Sun (with interactive sound) - Info about the numerical system, plus the numbers 1 to 10 (with interactive sound) - The monophthongs (with sounds and specials, e.g. mergers and shifts. ) - The diphthongs (if available) - The consonantal system (with interactive sound) - A free passage (with sound) - Pictures (if delivered by speakers) - Video material (linked with YouTube or private) - Copyright Info Note that most sound samples are coupled with phonetic transcription. The following languages are represented by more than 1 speaker (No# of speakers in brackets): Arabic (5), Bulgarian (4), Catalan (2), Chinese (16), English (40), French (5), Frisian (5), Georgian (2), Greek (8), German (26), Hindi (4), Hungarian (5), Italian (3), Jamaican Creole (17), Japanese (5), Khowar (2), Korean (5), Latvian (2), Lithuanian (3), Polish (5), Portuguese (2), Romanian (3), Russian (16), Serbian (3), Spanish (16), Tarifit (2), Thai (2), Turkish (8), Urdu (3), Wu (3) In addition to these, the VLC Language Index hosts about 300 further languages, many of them with full sound support, some of them highly endangered.

Title: Book: Beliefs about Second Language Learning
Body: From https://www.morebooks.de/store/gb/book/beliefs-about-second-language-learning/isbn/978-3-8383-8921-9 Beliefs about Second Language Learning: A study of Adult Learners and Their Teachers in Saudi Arabia By LAP LAMBERT Publishing: MoreBooks! Publishers Summary: Despite the importance of beliefs as factors influencing learners' and teachers' expectations and practices regarding the acquisition of second language, they have not been accorded the attention their importance deserves, especially in terms of the relationship between learners' and teachers' beliefs, which has been little studied. This book, therefore, investigates beliefs about Arabic language learning held by adult learners and their teachers at the Institute for the Teaching of Arabic to Non-Arabs in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. It explores similarities and differences in beliefs within and between those groups. It also considers implications drawn from the study’s findings. The study’s findings contribute to the study of beliefs generally and should be especially useful to students of SLA and particularly to those interested in TAFL (Teaching Arabic as a Foreign Language).
