development of Indianlanguages.The Institute was charged with the responsibility of serving asa nucleus to bring together all the research and literary out-put from the variouslinguistic streams to a common head and narrowing the gap between basicresearch and developmental research in the fields of languages and linguisticsin India.  \nThe Institute and its five Regional Language Centres are thus engagedin research and teaching,which lead to the publication of a wide-rangingvariety of materials.Preparation of materials designed for teaching/learning atdifferent levels and suited to specific nceds is one of the major areas of interestof the Institute.Basic 'research relating to the acquisition of language andstudy of language in its manifold psycho-social relations constitute anotherbroad range of its interest.The publications will include materials producedby the members of the staff of the Central Institute of Indian Languages andits Regional Language Centres and associated scholars from Universities andInstitutions,both Indian and foreign.  \nThe Central Institute of Indian languages has initiated a Basic CourseSeries in major Indian languages to provide suitable and comprehensive materialfor learning and teaching the language concerned for Indians.In a languageteaching situation,the teacher is expectcd to combine the roles of a psycho-linguist,socio-linguist,linguist,language pedagogue,a creator of materials,a literary critic and a testing and evaluation expert.Most of his competencesare naturally reflected in the materials,which simultaneously are graded fromsimple to complex,known to the unknown and contrived to the natural.  Thisis a very difficult task.After research and experimentation we have comeout with more questions than answers at each stage of the material.Forexample,how basic is basic?What is grading?In what way can linguisticand cultural matter be graded?Is question,with which most learningbegins,simpler than statement?How does one move from a purely languagebased competence to creating litrerary sensibilities?How does one buildinto the material conceptual prose?How are lessons to be presented ?  \nShould the translated discourse structure be made to look similar to the origi-nal discourse structure?Questions such as these have been answered diffe-rently by different teachers and researchers.  This search is a continuingphenomenon.Therefore,these materials represent our unfinished educationin this area.  \nii.An Intensive Course in Malayalam  \nThe format for the basic course is the result of a consensus arrived at bythe lecturers and principals of the five Regional Language Centres of the Insti-tute engaged in theteaching of major Indian languages.This is the productof almost eight years of teaching and research.This format is flexible andhas left much scope for individual authors to innovate.If these courseshelp the desirous to learn and stimulate those interested in applied linguistics,with special reference to the teaching of Indian languages as second/foreignlanguages,then the Institute would feel rewarded.  \nI congratulate the teachers,the trainees,the supervisors and the pressand publication people who have brought out the publication in a ","cbCaid6hwwja8WVX","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaid6hwwja8WVX","pdf",14927617,933,"English","# Foreword\n## Role of the Institute and its research/teaching mission\n## Basic Course Series for major Indian languages\n# Editor’s Note\n## Overview of Malayalam and its literary history","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Central Institute of Indian Languages described in the foreword?\",\"answer\":\"It was established to assist and coordinate the development of Indian languages, bringing together research and literary output and narrowing the gap between basic and developmental research in language and linguistics fields.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the book approach teaching Malayalam as a second or foreign language?\",\"answer\":\"It provides grammatically graded, comprehensive materials with controlled situations, structures, and vocabulary, moving from simple to complex and from known to unknown and contrived to natural.\"},{\"question\":\"What does the editor’s note say about Malayalam and who uses it?\",\"answer\":\"Malayalam is the language of Kerala and is spoken across India, with speakers found in all states and union territories, reflecting Dravidian roots and a developed literary tradition.\"}]","An Intensive Course in Malayalam - Intensive Course Series No. 4 - Preface | PDF",1790762852,2351]
