Die diesjährige Jahrestagung des Leibniz-Instituts für Deutsche Sprache in Mannheim mit dem Titel „Deutsch in Europa“ zielte auf eine Perspektivenerweiterung ab. In zwölf Fachvorträgen, neun Projektvorstellungen im Rahmen einer Methodenmesse und einer Podiumsdiskussion wurden sprachpolitische, grammatische und methodische Aspekte des sprachlichen Nebeneinanders in Europa, des Sprachvergleichs und des Deutscherwerbs diskutiert.
We present web services implementing a workflow for transcripts of spoken language following TEI guidelines, in particular ISO 24624:2016 "Language resource management - Transcription of spoken language". The web services are available at our website and will be available via the CLARIN infrastructure, including the Virtual Language Observatory and WebLicht.
This article investigates the use of überhaupt and sowieso in German and Dutch. These two words are frequently classified as particles, if only because of their pragmatic functions. The frequent use of particles is considered a specific trait common to German and Dutch, and the description of their semantics and pragmatics is notoriously difficult. It is unclear whether both particles have the same meaning in Dutch (where they are loanwords) and German, whether they can fulfil the same syntactic functions and to what extent the (semantic and pragmatic) functions of überhaupt und sowieso overlap. There has already been linguistic research on überhaupt and sowieso by Fisseni (2009) using the world-wide web and by Bruijnen and Sudhoff (2013) using the EUROPARL corpus. In the present study we critically evaluated the corpus study, integrating information on original utterance language and discussing the adequacy of this corpus. Moreover, we conducted an experimental survey collecting subjective-intuitive judgements in three dimensions, thus gathering more data on sparse and informal constructions.
By using these complementary methods, we obtain a more nuanced picture of the use of überhaupt and sowieso in both languages: On the one hand, the data show where the use of both words is more similar and on the other hand, differences between the languages can also be discerned.
Zwischen Perspektiven
(2019)
We present a technique called event mapping that allows to project text representations into event lists, produce an event table, and derive quantitative conclusions to compare the text representations. The main application of the technique is the case where two classes of text representations have been collected in two different settings (e.g., as annotations in two different formal frameworks) and we can compare the two classes with respect to their systematic differences in the event table. We illustrate how the technique works by applying it to data collected in two experiments (one using annotations in Vladimir Propp’s framework, the other using natural language summaries).
We present an experimental approach to determining natural dimensions of story comparison. The results show that untrained test subjects generally do not privilege structural information. When asked to justify sameness ratings, they may refer to content, but when asked to state differences, they mostly refer to style, concrete events, details and motifs. We conclude that adequate formal models of narratives must represent such non-structural data.
From Proof Texts to Logic. Discourse Representation Structures for Proof Texts in Mathematics
(2009)
We present an extension to Discourse Representation Theory that can be used to analyze mathematical texts written in the commonly used semi-formal language of mathematics (or at least a subset of it). Moreover, we describe an algorithm that can be used to check the resulting Proof Representation Structures for their logical validity and adequacy as a proof.
A general concept of perspective is proposed, using the mathematical notion of vector spaces as metaphor. The concept is applied to different phenomena which use perspective: spatiotemporal perspective, lexical semantics (prototypes and features), perspectivation in syntax and lexical inferences. Criteria for constructing a superordinate perspective for two given perspectives are developed.
