Conclusions. 330 $aThis book addresses one of the most crucial and common questions confronting planners of languages other than English, that is, how the impacts of global languages on local languages should be dealt with: internationalization or local language promotion? This empirical study examines the implementation of Iran?s governmental language and terminology policy to accelerate rarely used abbreviation methods in Persian in order to preserve the language from the extensiveness of borrowed English abbreviated forms. This book provides an in-depth analysis of relevant linguistic theories as well as the structure and social context of the Persian language itself, rather than relying on personal opinions or beliefs either in favour of or against abbreviation. The text appeals to politicians, language planners, terminologists, lecturers, authors and translators of scientific works, especially those who are speakers of languages other than English and seek to promote their local languages. This book is particularly relevant to linguistics students (both undergraduate and graduate students) and language teachers and researchers in the broader areas of language education and curriculum design. 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Linguistics,$x2197-0017 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aAnthropological linguistics 606 $aLanguage policy 606 $aTheoretical Linguistics / Grammar 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics 606 $aLinguistic Anthropology 606 $aLanguage Policy and Planning 615 0$aLinguistics. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aAnthropological linguistics. 615 0$aLanguage policy. 615 14$aTheoretical Linguistics / Grammar. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 615 24$aLinguistic Anthropology. 615 24$aLanguage Policy and Planning. 676 $a491.55 676 $a491.55 700 $aAkbari$b Fatemeh$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0900719 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910373936003321 996 $aIran?s Language Planning Confronting English Abbreviations$92013079 997 $aUNINA
