Abstract: This article presents 2 studies that investigate the role of intonation as a perceptual cue that regulates turn taking in English and Tunisian Arabic (TA) conversations. Study 1 is based on exposing native speakers of English and Tunisian EFL learners of English to English isolated, filtered, and contextualised speech. They were asked to judge the turn type, a probable speaker change, and the cue used for their judgements. Study 2 is based on exposing the same TA respondents to TA data, following the same three tests. Results show that the two languages share the following features. Turn leave was indicated by a drop in energy, in inhales, and a fall in pitch (L%) at the end of the intonation phrase unit. Turn hold was indicated by a high final pitch contour (H%), an audible intake.............

Abstract: Hanja is mostly semantic-oriented logographic, but there are signs that indicate sound. Therefore, Chinese characters using Chinese characters are classified as syllable characters (logosyllabary). Hiragana, one of the Japanese systems of letters, is a syllabary that represents syllables. One interesting fact is that the brain circuits involved in reading each character system are different. There is a reason why I can not. In order to recognize the Chinese characters such as Chinese characters, the visual information and the concept system must be connected. In order to understand the phonetic characters, the visual and auditory memories and the phonological elements must be connected to each other. Most characters such as English, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese are mixed with factual..........

Abstract: Cattle rustling and banditry has been a veritable threat to public safety and security in north-west-Nigeria. It has led to loss of lives, human injury, population displacements, as well as loss of cattle in their numbers. This situation goes with repercussions that do not portend well for the collective wellbeing of the herding communities. It creates a sense of insecurity which has the capacity to hamper the productivity of the herding enterprise. The loss of cattle to rustlers means depletion of household income and communal resource of the herding community. It was based on this background, that this paper examined the menace of cattle rustling and banditry in north west Nigeria.........
