Framework for Aboriginal Languages and Torres Strait Islander Languages / Foundation to Year 2 / Understanding / Language variation and change
Version 8
Curriculum content descriptions
Recognise that different words and language forms are used to address and communicate with people according to relationship and context
[Key concepts: kinship, context; Key processes: noticing, recognising]
(ACLFWU145)
Elaborations
- noticing that different forms of address and kinship terms are used depending on the relationship between participants
- recognising that the way someone is related to others affects how he or she speaks to them
- recognising that ways of speaking vary according to context and situation, for example, language used when interacting with peers during playground games is different to that used with the teaching team and with visiting Elders/community members
- recognising that language used in particular interactions can vary between cultural contexts, for example, the use of titles in English compared to kin categories in the language
