title: Germany's Linguistic 'Others' and the Racism Taboo
abstract: This article highlights issues of Othering and linguicism and identifies the challenges of undoing taboos of race and racism in popular and academic discourses in Germany. We discuss the prospect of introducing critical race theory to expose these issues that we see as especially urgent, as Germany remains host to very large numbers of international migrants. A monolingual and monocultural idea of Germany does not befit this country of immigration in the twenty first century.

title: The Yugapad Way Of Using Words: How a Linguistic Taboo Became a Crucial Literary Strategy
abstract: As Katyayana emphasizes while commenting on the ekasesa rules, words apply per object. Consequently, no word should be capable of conveying more than one object. By contrast not only does paronomasia, the so called slesa, break the one to one relation between the sabda and artha levels of language; there are also grammatical rules which look like deviations from the naturally expected cause effect relation between word forms and their meanings. The ekasesa rule represents one of these exceptions, since some parts of the artha are comprehensible, even without employing the word form denoting them, such as matr in the dual noun pitarau, meaning 'mother and father' rather than 'the two fathers' P atanjali already mentions an intriguing option in the use of sabdas, when he notes that a word form can merely convey its primary denotation, such as candra denoting the 'moon' or can express something that is 'like something else' such as candra conveying the sense of a 'face like a moon' These exceptions are reconsidered here within the framework of the "yugapad expression" which is how Bhartrhari defines one of the two language options (the other one being kramah 'sequence' an option realised when a single word simultaneously conveys more than one meaning, but an option whose use is discouraged. Technical (ritual and grammatical) speculations on simultaneity as an exception to the bi unique relationship between a cause and its effect date back to the 2nd to 3rd centuries BC. Nonetheless, grammarians insist on excluding these extreme applications of meaning extension; only the late kavyalamkarasastra authors extol the virtues of the phenomenon. The paper focuses on the trajectory that might have been followed in the intervening changes.

McArthur defines taboo as something that is not to be mentioned "because it is ineffably holy or unspeakably vulgar"2; in result, words relating to taboo topics have been stigmatized as bad or foul language, banned in polite conversations, and particularly in print. According to Wardhaugh, "taboo is the prohibition or avoidance in any society of behavior believed to be harmful to its members in that it would cause them anxiety, embarrassment, or shame"3. It can be concluded that language taboo is connected with polite
