    When a string of linguistically complex messages points to a calculated killer, the BAU calls in a consultant who speaks the language - literally. Eden Blake isn't law enforcement. She isn't trained to chase monsters. But she's about to help the FBI hunt one. What starts as a case rooted in language and logic turns into something neither Eden nor Dr. Spencer Reid could have predicted. Bound by intellect, haunted by pasts they don't talk about, and caught in a pattern only one of them can see - they'll learn that not every variable can be controlled. And some connections defy all profiling.

    India is a huge country and one of its kind. It's a land of diversity with diverse languages, cultures and attitudes. One of the biggest differences in India is language diversity. We have over 22 official languages, multiple vernacular languages and over 6000 dialects. There is a popular saying that depicts India's linguistic diversity rather well: "Kos-kos par badle paani, chaar kos par baani" (The language spoken in India changes every few kilometers, just like the taste of the water). To tap the power of the vernacular languages and realize the "Digital India" dream, we need to develop an India Internet ecosystem that will raise Internet adoption and promote digital empowerment through vernacular interface and content. After all, the language that you talk in, is which you think in, is what you are most comfortable with. You have heard that "If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his language, that goes to his heart."

    Early school age English children acquire over 3000 words a year. The main factors which account for such rapid vocabulary growth are context and word-formation knowledge. Such vocabulary growth is also of great interest in the L2 acquisition. Using empirical tests, the book puts side by side L1 and L2 acquisition of word-formation devices. The first chapter explores the early acquisition of word-formation devices by English children and presents the principles through which cross-linguistic influence diverts L2 learners from the natural way of acquiring word-formation devices of their target language. It also presents the 'Dual Semantic Transparency' Hypothesis in the L2 acquisition. The second and third chapters utilize empirical evidence in examining the advanced acquisition of word-formation devices by both native speakers and L2 learners, as well as highlight the points in which morphological cross-linguistic transfer is more evident to L2 learners. The fourth chapter offers suggestions over the way L2 learners' knowledge of word-formation devices of their target language can be improved. The book is targeted to anyone interested in language acquisition.
