Ethnography of speaking
SPEECH IN COGNITIVE AND EXPRESSIVE BEHAVIOR
In the study of ethnography , presumably three things will hold true: 1. the discipline of linguistics will continue to contribute studies of the history, structure, and use of languages; 2. in other disciplines, linguistic concepts and practices will be qualified, reinterpreted, subsumed, and perhaps sometimes re-diffused in changed form into linguistics; 3. linguistics will remain the discipline responsible for coordinating knowledge about verbal behavior from the viewpoint of language itself.
In our concern is the role of phonological habits in the perception and interpretation of sounds, there exists an abundance of theory, technique, and experimental work. The concern is the role of semantic habits in perception and interpretation of experience, there is no such abundance. Some experimental testing has been done (see comment in Hymes 1961b), but we cannot adequately investigate the role of semantic habits in ordinary behavior without knowledge of the semantic habits that are available to play a role, and such knowledge can be gained only by description in relation to native contexts of use. In other words, we need a semantic analysis that is a part of ethnography.As a narrative reflection of reality ethnography requests for a structural analysis, achieving the economics of the rules of a grammar in relation to a series of analyses of texts. As we can see from our texts we saw two different reflections of the speaking. One is a closest community (church members in specific region South London) and another is a examples of the phenomena as a “Kros” definition of the New Guinea. Different kinds of the interactions, lingustical expressions (as an semantical level). How do social-cultural expectations reflect on the speech and behavior people. As the closest ties of the definitions of the mental system in the anthropological view. How is it different from our lingustical behavior in the class? Freedom of the speech, however politeness and official expression, following the main topic of the class theme. All that 3 variable lingustical situations give as a good observations about ethnography and relation ethnography with psychology and anthropology.
