Is cúis áthais don Fhoireann Eagarthóireachta an 32ú hEagrán den iris TEANGA a chur i láthair. Cuimsíonn an 15 pháipéar a chuirtear i dtoll a chéile san eagrán seo réimse leathan an taighde chomhaimseartha sa Teangeolaíocht Fheidhmeach in Éirinn agus níos faide i gcéin. Cé go bhfuil raidhse topaicí faoi chaibidil san eagrán seo, tháinig ceithre mhórthéama chun cinn: fírinní sóisialta agus dioscúrsa, malairtí agus cleachtais teanga, oideachas trí mheán na Gaeilge, agus comhthéacsanna foghlama teangacha. Leagtar béim ar an teannas idir dhioscúrsaí dlíthiúla, scolártha agus poiblí agus orthu siúd a mbíonn a gcuid féiniúlachta sainnithe agus ceistithe ag na fírinní sóisialta agus dioscúrsa céanna sa trí pháipéar a thagann faoin gcéad téama, fírinní sóisialta agus dioscúrsa. Tagann ceithre pháipéar faoi scáth an dara téama, malairtí agus cleachtais teangacha. Léirítear an chaoi a mbíonn ról ríthábhachtach idirphearsanta agus ídé-eolaíoch ag cinntí teangeolaíochta amhail códmhalartú/ trasteangú agus úsáid sainteangacha ainmnithe. Díríonn an tríú téama ar an oideachas trí mheán na Gaeilge agus áirítear ceithre pháipéar faoin téama seo. Tugtar léargas ar na ceisteanna reatha sa réimse maidir le hoideolaíoch agus le hionchuimsiú sa tumoideachas. Ar deireadh, rangaítear ceithre pháipéar faoin téama deiridh, comhthéacsanna foghlama teangacha, agus cíortar an t-idirghníomhú idir chomhthéacsanna éagsúla agus an ról gníomhach a bhíonn ag foghlaimeoirí sna comhthéacsanna sin. Ar an iomlán, tugann na páipéir seo uile léargas dúinn ar na slite ina múnlaítear teangacha taobh istigh de réimsí pearsanta, institiúideacha agus ídé-eolaocha an tsaoil. Cuirtear i gcuimhne dúinn nach feiniméin aonair iad teangacha, ach ina áit sin, is féidir a mhaoímh gur trí stair a mhúnlaítear teangacha, gur sna seomraí ranga a chuirtear i bhfeidhm iad, agus gur trí thaithí saoil na bhfoghlaimeoirí agus na gcainteoirí a mhaireann siad. The Editorial Team is honoured to introduce the 32nd issue of TEANGA. The 15 papers brought together here reflect the breadth, depth, and evolving character of contemporary Applied Linguistics research in Ireland and beyond. While the topics of the studies are wide ranging, four thematic clusters emerge: discourses and social realities; variation and language practices; Irish-medium education; and language learning contexts. The three papers which constitute the discourses and social realities cluster foreground tensions between legal, scholarly and public discourses and those whose identities are framed and contested by them. The second theme variation and language practices consists of four papers which reveal how linguistic choices such as code-switching/translanguaging and the use of specific named languages perform crucial interpersonal and ideological work. The third theme turns to Irish-medium education and comprises four papers. Together they reflect ongoing questions regarding pedagogy and inclusion within immersion education. Finally, the last thematic cluster assembles four papers focusing on language learning contexts exploring the interplay of differential contexts and learners’ active engagement in them. Collectively, these studies shed light on how language is shaped within the intimate, the institutional, and the ideological domains reminding us that linguistic phenomena do not exist in isolation: rather, they are embedded in communities, shaped by histories, enacted in classrooms, and lived through the experiences of learners and speakers.

Is mór an onóir é don Fhoireann Eagarthóireachta nua an 31ú heagrán den iris TEANGA a chur i láthair agus clochmhíle thábhachtach á chéiliúradh againn: comóradh cúig bliana daichead na hirise. Bliain bhisiúil agus thairbheach ab ea í dúinn mar eagarthóirí, agus tá ríméad orainn i ngeall ar an líon mór páipéar ar ardchaighdeán a fuarthas i nGaeilge agus i mBéarla. Léiriú ar dhíogras agus ar dhúthracht iar-eagarthoirí na hirise is ea rannpháirtíocht láidir an phobail léinn. Ba dhíol béime acu go ndéanfaí an iontaofacht agus an tsoiléireacht a chur chun cinn, ar dlúthchodanna den iris iad. Ba mhaith linn buíochas ó chroí a ghabháil leis na hiar-eagarthóirí as an tacaíocht leanúnach a thug siad dúinn agus sinn ag dul i ngleic lenár gcúraimí úra mar eagarthóirí. Chuir an tacaíocht seo ar ár gcumas tógáil ar an mbonn láidir acadúil a leagadh síos go nuige seo. Déanfaimid ár ndícheall na hardchaighdeáin a leagadh síos roimhe seo a choimeád. Airítear páipéar tosaigh, deich bpáipéar taighde agus léirmheas leabhair amháin in eagrán reatha na hirise. Cé go gcuimsítear réimse leathan ábhar anseo, is féidir scagadh a dhéanamh ar na páipéir de réir dhá mhórchatagóir, catagóirí atá fós comhlántach lena chéile mar sin féin – cleachtais teanga agus oideachas teanga. As the new Editorial Team, it is our honour to both introduce the 31st issue of TEANGA and to celebrate an important milestone: the journal’s 45th anniversary. It has been a dynamic and rewarding year since we assumed our roles, and we are thrilled by the volume and quality of submissions received in both Irish and English. This strong engagement from the scholarly community is a testament to the hard work of our predecessors, who have advanced the journal’s commitment to scientific rigour and international visibility. We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the outgoing team for all their support and for making the transition so smooth which enabled us to build upon a solid foundation of excellence. We will strive to maintain the high standards set by them. The current issue includes one introductory paper, ten research papers and one book review. While the content of the research papers is wide ranging, it can be broken down into two broad, yet complementary categories – language practices and language education.

Teanga 30 Tá 44 bliain ann ó bunaíodh Teanga agus is í seo an uimhir dheireanach dúinne mar fhoireann eagarthóireachta. Bhí tréimhse trí bliana eachtrúil agus iontach againn agus muid ag féachaint le hiontaofacht eolaíochta na hirise a chothú, comhoibriú idirnáisiúnta a chinntiú agus tacú le saothrú na Gaeilge mar theanga atá in oiriúint don scaipeadh agus don mhalartú acadúil. In 2020 glacadh le Teanga in Scopus, déantar tagairt dá cuid páipéar go forleathan anois, tá tarraingt ag líon nach beag údar ón tír seo ar an iris agus tá méadú tagtha ar líon na n-údar idirnáisiúnta. San uimhir reatha gheofar eochairpháipéar, páipéar iarrtha, 7 bpáipéar taighde, tuarascáil tionscadail agus 2 léirmheas leabhair. Cuimsíonn na páipéir réimse na Teangeolaíochta Feidhmí agus disciplíní agus fodhisciplíní gaolmhara — Béarla mar Lingua Franca, sochtheangeolaíocht, oideachas teanga agus beartas teanga san áireamh. This year is the 44th anniversary of Teanga, and our last issue as an editorial team. It has been a busy and wonderful three years where we have tried to continue to shape Teanga, keeping its scientific rigour, and ensuring international collaborations while empowering the role of Irish as a language of academic dissemination and exchange. Teanga was accepted into Scopus in 2020, its papers are now widely referenced, and our annual volume attracts a healthy number of national and increasingly international authors. The current issue includes one keynote paper, one invited article, seven research articles, one project report and two book reviews. The content of these pieces encompasses Applied Linguistics and a range of related disciplines and subdisciplines including English as a Lingua Franca, sociolinguistics, language education, and language policy.

This special issue of TEANGA, the Journal of the Irish Association for Applied Linguistics, focuses on recent and momentous discourses of Ireland. It brings together papers from scholars who discuss and challenge discourses in various fields such as politics, identity, gender, health and migration. What all the researchers and the papers share is their methodological approach and their common interest in discourse analysis: each employing methods of discourse analysis / critical discourse analysis from their own disciplinary perspectives.
