Clarep journal of english and linguistics (c-jel). Vol. 7

The CLAREP Journal of English and Linguistics (C-JEL), Volume 7, presents a compelling collection of seven research articles that illuminate the complex in- terplay between language, literature, culture, and society within African contexts. Spanning themes such as cognitive metaphor theory, postcolonial trauma narra- tives, phonological analysis, sociolinguistic variation, and educational technology, this volume showcases cutting-edge scholarship from leading African researchers and emerging voices in the ? eld.
Collectively, these contributions offer fresh per- spectives, empirical depth, and practical recommendations that advance scholarly conversations in Applied Linguistics and Literary Studies. C-JEL 7 represents a vi- tal contribution to the documentation and theorisation of African linguistic and lit- erary realities, and serves as a valuable resource for researchers, educators, and pol- icymakers committed to understanding the evolving dynamics of African languag- es and narratives in a global context.
The Centre for Language Research and English Pro ? ciency (CLAREP) is a non-gov- ernmental, non-pro ? t educational organisation committed to advancing language research in Africa and promoting language pro ? ciency across diverse spheres. Its mission is to foster excellence in linguistic scholarship and practice for the bene ? t of researchers, educators, and language users.
