Languages (Society & Culture) - June 2007

Hi all. I am a translation student. My teacher had asked me to search for The relation between reading comprehension and Translation. Does any of you happen to know any source for this research? I'd appreciate it.

Mexicans and Puerto Rican Spanish.?

I was curious as to whether there are many differences between Mexican and Puerto Rican dialects of Spanish. If so, what are some of the major ones. Are there any words or phrases that one country may use that the other wouldn't understand?

American English HELP!?

Hello.
I received this reply from an American police force:
“The incident has been investigated and the involved parties have been contacted”
My natural language is not English, so I need help to fully understand this reply.
In English, is there any chance that “has been” and “have been” can be referring to something that happened a year ago? Or is it a recent past? If it’s a recent past, I know that there is not established time limit…but in your personal sense what is the most distant past that “has been” can be referring to?
Thank you.

What language is in demand in the US?

I've grown a fancy to Japanese, and wanted to become an interpreter of English for natives in Japan, or perhaps vice-versa. However, I believe there aren't that many Japanese in America, and English is widely-known already in Japan. Spanish is my second choice. Are Spanish interpreters needed in America? Are English interpreters needed in Japan? And finally, if both of these are no, what language is in high demand (and will continue to be for years ahead) in the US?

What is a really obscure language and how can I learn it?

I was thinking of Naukan. It's some Eskimo language. Apparently only 70 people in the world speak it. I believe it is the least spoken language that isn't extinct. I would like to learn it but I have no idea where to begin. If you can't help me there, what is an obscure language that is very scarcely spoken and where can I learn it?

French: If you were to say "after French"(as in French class), would you say "apres francais"?

Would you say "l'apres-francais", "apres-francais", l'apres francais", "apres francais", or is there some other way to say it?
I really appreciate the help, I'm a first-year French student so simple no complicated stuff.
