Only write one paragraph introduction. Please be sure to include all of the following with the citations provided. • • • Attention Getter • If I was writing this paper, I would probably use a personal example for the AG. • I wrote poetry and fiction in elementary/high school, so I am more of a storyteller. • If you’re more analytical, you could highlight a study or example of a concept and discuss why we should study it. • If you’re completely lost, contact me! I’d love to help you work out your intro! Thesis Statement • You MUST include the following phrase: • The purpose of this paper… Preview Statement • This will tell me what three concepts you chose to analyze. • I would use the following, but you may choose any three from the text: • identity • culture • conflict management • Do not choose three types of conflict management. That will only count as one concept. When I would write a thesis and preview statement, I would make them one sentence. If you choose the three concepts I’ve outlined above, you may use the following as your Thesis/Preview Statement if you’d like. I will not consider it plagiarism.

I am only offering clarification on what I’m looking for. =) • APA Style Format 1 Annotated Bibliography 1. Language in society. (2021, February 19). Virginia Commonwealth University. https://socialsci.libretexts.org/@go/page/42979 – Romancing across Cultures Some intimate friendships grow into romantic relationships. There is a natural tendency to find mates that are similar to us in a way. We may seek partners within our in-groups or those with who we share similar beliefs and values. In intercultural relationships, a different dynamic may be at play. Standards of beauty vary within different cultures, where stereotypes are set for those women or men who are deemed attractive. To what extent romantic love may play in choosing a mate can also vary among different cultures. Some tend to move into marriage when they are stable financially, while other cultures emphasize that their people should marry within their cultural boundaries. In some cultures, it is common to use a trusted intermediary who helps seek a partner (Jones, 2021). Arranged marriages can be successful, but some of the couples in such situations end up divorcing after they realize they aren’t into each other. Also, some cultures emphasize that their people should marry from their race. Interracial marriages can be stressful, and successful interracial marriages can give rise to a third culture that is a blend of the two cultures intertwining. 2. Fishman, J. A. (2019). The sociology of language: An interdisciplinary social science approach to language in society (pp. 217-404). De Gruyter Mouton. – Cultural schemas and scripts 2 A speech remark can be received very differently according to the cultural tradition or cultural schema, that is the model that provides the guides to behavior in particular contexts. Consequently, certain people can react to compliments in varying ways. Some may downplay the compliment according to their culture, and some may be overconfident. In this case, it seems that culture has a key role to play in deducing meanings from scripts. Also, there are social situations that normalize the behavior applied in a language known as cultural scripts. These scripts provide guidelines on the way of acting and speaking which is learned through observation, experience, and cultural bounds (Fishman, 2019). For instance, in a public bathhouse in Japan, people of the same sex can go into a communal bath. For some people, the idea of public nudity may be shocking, but for the Japanese, it is acceptable according to their culture. Therefore, one may be aware of the expectations out of a conversation but may fail to act accordingly due to cultural schemas and scripts. 3. Simpson, A. (2019). Language and society: An introduction. Oxford University Press. – Gender and Communication According to research, different patterns of communication can be identified in both men and women. Men and women seem to convey different ways of communicating with people, which is attributed to their gender as influenced by the society. For instance, most young women in the US tend to use a vocal fry or deferential tones when communicating. However, such speech habits hold women back professionally in business settings where tone and language rules are set by men. Moreover, studies claim that in conversations, most women try to build rapport to establish connections, while 3 men exhibit knowledge and skill by sharing information. Therefore, men and women communicate subconsciously in different manners, without being aware of how their mindsets differ. To communicate well, they have to understand both communication styles and respect each other’s points of view. Also, due to a male-dominated society, women’s speech can often be undervalued. This sets cultural expectations that form standards for both men and women in society. Consequently, understanding the difference in communication in gender can be vital in intercultural encounters (Simpson, 2019). 4. Mooney, A., & Evans, B. (2018). Language, society, and power: An introduction. Routledge. – Communication in Personal Relationships As social beings, humans tend to build many relationships in the course of the their life. Their communication in this regard is highly founded on the number and kind of relationships they embrace. The language used in each relationship varies according to the purpose of the encounter. Religious beliefs and personal attitudes can play a major role in such cases. As the relationships grow, some may turn into friendships. Studies show that most friendships are formed based on the commonality of interests and values. This is evident in online communities, especially in the internet era we are currently in. As most relationships thrive, most people reveal certain information about themselves as they grow closer. The communication grows from shallow topics to more personal subjects. How friendship is understood varies differently too among various cultures. It might take less time or longer to initiate and build a friendship according to certain cultures (Mooney & Evans, 2018). Also, the friendship may be based on mutual respect, 4 understanding the needs of one another, positive sharing of information, or building social connections according to the type of culture.

MLA In-Text Citations: The Basics

Guidelines for referring to the works of others in your text using MLA style are covered throughout the MLA Handbook and in chapter 7 of the MLA Style Manual. Both books provide extensive examples, so it’s a good idea to consult them if you want to become even more familiar with MLA guidelines or if you have a particular reference question.

BASIC IN-TEXT CITATION RULES

In MLA Style, referring to the works of others in your text is done using parenthetical citations. This method involves providing relevant source information in parentheses whenever a sentence uses a quotation or paraphrase. Usually, the simplest way to do this is to put all of the source information in parentheses at the end of the sentence (i.e., just before the period). However, as the examples below will illustrate, there are situations where it makes sense to put the parenthetical elsewhere in the sentence, or even to leave information out.

General Guidelines

• The source information required in a parenthetical citation depends (1) upon the source medium (e.g. print, web, DVD) and (2) upon the source’s entry on the Works Cited page.
• Any source information that you provide in-text must correspond to the source information on the Works Cited page. More specifically, whatever signal word or phrase you provide to your readers in the text must be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of the corresponding entry on the Works Cited page.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS: AUTHOR-PAGE STYLE

MLA format follows the author-page method of in-text citation. This means that the author’s last name and the page number(s) from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken must appear in the text, and a complete reference should appear on your Works Cited page. The author’s name may appear either in the sentence itself or in parentheses following the quotation or paraphrase, but the page number(s) should always appear in the parentheses, not in the text of your sentence. For example:

Wordsworth stated that Romantic poetry was marked by a “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (263).

Romantic poetry is characterized by the “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (Wordsworth 263).

Wordsworth extensively explored the role of emotion in the creative process (263).

Both citations in the examples above, (263) and (Wordsworth 263), tell readers that the information in the sentence can be located on page 263 of a work by an author named Wordsworth. If readers want more information about this source, they can turn to the Works Cited page, where, under the name of Wordsworth, they would find the following information:

Wordsworth, William. Lyrical Ballads. Oxford UP, 1967.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS FOR PRINT SOURCES WITH KNOWN AUTHOR

For print sources like books, magazines, scholarly journal articles, and newspapers, provide a signal word or phrase (usually the author’s last name) and a page number. If you provide the signal word/phrase in the sentence, you do not need to include it in the parenthetical citation.

Human beings have been described by Kenneth Burke as “symbol-using animals” (3).

Human beings have been described as “symbol-using animals” (Burke 3).

These examples must correspond to an entry that begins with Burke, which will be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of an entry on the Works Cited page:

Burke, Kenneth. Language as Symbolic Action: Essays on Life, Literature, and Method. University of California Press, 1966.
