In diesem Beitrag beschäftigen wir uns mit moralisierenden Sprachhandlungen, worunter wir diskursstrategische Verfahren verstehen, in denen die Beschreibung von Streitfragen und erforderlichen Handlungen mit moralischen Begriffen enggeführt werden. Auf moralische Werte verweisendes Vokabular (wie beispielsweise „Freiheit“, „Sicherheit“ oder „Glaubwürdigkeit“) wird dabei verwendet, um eine Forderung durchzusetzen, die auf diese Weise unhintergehbar erscheint und keiner weiteren Begründung oder Rechtfertigung bedarf. Im Fokus unserer Betrachtungen steht dementsprechend das aus pragma-linguistischer Sicht auffällige Phänomen einer spezifischen Redepraxis der Letztbegründung oder Unhintergehbarkeit, die wir als Pragmem auffassen und beschreiben. Hierfür skizzieren wir zunächst den in der linguistischen Pragmatik verorteten Zugang zu Praktiken der Moralisierung, betrachten sprachliche Formen des Moralisierens und deren strukturelle Einbettung in den Satz oder den Text (also kotextuelle und pragmasyntaktischen Struktureinbettungen), um anschließend Hypothesen zu kontextuellen Wirkungsfunktionen aufzustellen. Darauf basierend leiten wir schließlich anhand von exemplarischen Korpusbelegen Strukturmuster des Moralisierens ab, die wir in dem philosophisch-linguistischen Fachterminus ‚Pragmem‘ verdichten und mittels qualitativer und quantitativer Analysen operationalisieren.
It is well known that the distribution of lexical and grammatical patterns is size- and register-sensitive (Biber 1986, and later publications). This fact alone presents a challenge to many corpus-oriented linguistic studies focusing on a single language. When it comes to cross-linguistic studies using corpora, the challenge becomes even greater due to the lack of high-quality multilingual corpora (Kupietz et al. 2020; Kupietz/Trawiński 2022), which are comparable with respect to the size and the register. That was the motivation for the creation of the European Reference Corpus EuReCo, an initiative started in 2013 at the Leibniz Institute for the German Language (IDS) together with several European partners (Kupietz et al. 2020). EuReCo is an emerging federated corpus, with large virtual comparable corpora across various languages and with an infrastructure supporting contrastive research. The core of the infrastructure is KorAP (Diewald et al. 2016), a scalable open-source platform supporting the analysis and visualisation of properties of texts annotated by multiple and potentially conflicting information layers, and supporting several corpus query languages. Until recently, EuReCo consisted of three monolingual subparts: the German Reference Corpus DeReKo (Kupietz et al. 2018), the Reference Corpus of Contemporary Romanian Language (Barbu Mititelu/Tufiş/Irimia 2018), and the Hungarian National Corpus (Váradi 2002). The goal of the present submission is twofold. On the one hand, it reports about the new component of EuReCo: a sample of the National Corpus of Polish (Przepiórkowski et al. 2010). On the other hand, it presents the results of a new pilot study using the newly extended EuReCo. This pilot study investigates selected Polish collocations involving light verbs and their prepositional / nominal complements (Fig. 1) and extends the collocation analyses of German, Romanian and Hungarian (Fig. 2) discussed in Kupietz/Trawiński (2022).
For many reasons, Mennonite Low German is a language whose documentation and investigation is of great importance for linguistics. To date, most research projects that deal with this language and/ or its speakers have had a relatively narrow focus, with many of the data cited being of limited relevance beyond the projects for which they were collected. In order to create a resource for a broad range of researchers, especially those working on Mennonite Low German, the dataset presented here has been transformed into a structured and searchable corpus that is accessible online. The translations of 46 English, Spanish, or Portuguese stimulus sentences into Mennonite Low German by 321 consultants form the core of the MEND-corpus (Mennonite Low German in North and South America) in the Archive for Spoken German. In addition to describing the origin of this corpus and discussing possibilities and limitations for further research, we discuss the technical structure and search possibilities of the Database for Spoken German. Among other things, this database allows for a structured search of metadata, a context-sensitive token search, and the generation of virtual corpora that can be shared with others. Moreover, thanks to its text-sound alignment, one can easily switch from a particular text section of the corpus to the corresponding audio section. Aside from the desire to equip the reader with the technical knowledge necessary to use this corpus, a further goal of this paper is to demonstrate that the corpus still offers many possibilities for future research.
This paper presents an extended annotation and analysis of interpretative reply relations focusing on a comparison of reply relation types and targets between conflictual pages and neutral pages of German Wikipedia (WP) talk pages. We briefly present the different categories identified for interpretative reply relations to analyze the relationship between WP postings as well as linguistic cues for each category. We investigate referencing strategies of WP authors in discussion page postings, illustrated by means of reply relation types and targets taking into account the degree of disagreement displayed on a WP talk page. We provide richly annotated data that can be used for further analyses such as the identification of interactional relations on higher levels, or for training tasks in machine learning algorithms.
Dieser Aufsatz befasst sich mit pragmatischen Aspekten von Negationsanhebung (NA), die vor allem in Horn (1978) erörtert wurden, und mit performativischen Eigenschaften von NA-Konstruktionen, die ursprünglich in Prince (1976), vor allem mit Bezug auf französische Daten diskutiert wurden. Das Ziel ist, die Kernaussagen von Horn (1978) und Prince (1976) mit Korpusdaten im übereinzelsprachlichen Kontext zu validieren. Als Gegenstand der Untersuchung werden deutsche und polnische NA-Konstruktionen herangezogen und entsprechend zwei verschiedene monolinguale Korpora als Datenquelle benutzt.
Der Umgang mit längeren, komplexeren Redebeiträgen hat als Gegenstand der Mündlichkeitsdidaktik in Sprachvermittlung sowie Sprachbildung viel Aufmerksamkeit erfahren. Empirische Untersuchungen dazu, in welchen Sprachverwendungskontexten lange Redebeiträge in natürlichen Gesprächssituationen häufig vorkommen und damit die Fähigkeit, sie verstehen und produzieren zu können, eine Anforderung für Lernende bildet, stehen jedoch noch aus. Der Beitrag stellt eine explorative Studie auf der Basis des Forschungs- und Lehrkorpus Gesprochenes Deutsch (FOLK) vor, die zeigt, wie durch korpuslinguistische Analysen anhand von Interaktionskorpora eine Beschreibung der Gebrauchsspezifika langer Redebeiträge für ein weites Spektrum an Gesprächskontexten gewonnen und damit eine Grundlage für die zielgruppenspezifische Vermittlung diskursiver Fähigkeiten im DaF/DaZ-Unterricht bereitgestellt werden kann.
Dieser Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über die methodischen Ausgangspunkte des Projekts MIT. Qualität und stellt einige zentrale Erkenntnisse zur Modellbildung, der korpuslinguistischen Analyse und Akzeptabilitätserhebungen in der Sprachgemeinschaft vor. Wir zeigen dabei, wie bestehende Textqualitätsmodelle anhand einer Analyse einschlägiger Ratgeberliteratur erweitert werden können. Es wurden zwei empirische Fallstudien durchgeführt, die beide auf die Herstellung von textueller Kohärenz mittels des Kausalkonnektors weil fokussieren. Wir stellen zunächst eine korpuskontrastive Analyse vor. Weiterhin zeigen wir, wie man anhand verschiedener Aufgabenstellungen diverse Aspekte von Akzeptabilität in der Sprachgemeinschaft abprüfen kann.
In this article, we examine the current situation of data dissemination and provision for CMC corpora. By that we aim to give a guiding grid for future projects that will improve the transparency and replicability of research results as well as the reusability of the created resources. Based on the FAIR guiding principles for research data management, we evaluate the 20 European CMC corpora listed in the CLARIN CMC Resource family, individuate successful strategies among the existing corpora and establish best practices for future projects. We give an overview of existing approaches to data referencing, dissemination and provision in European CMC corpora, and discuss the methods, formats and strategies used. Furthermore, we discuss the need for community standards and offer recommendations for best practices when creating a new CMC corpus.
Learning from students. On the design and usability of an e-dictionary of mathematical graph theory
(2022)
We created a prototype of an electronic dictionary for the mathematical domain of graph theory. We evaluate our prototype and compare its effectiveness in task-based tests with that of Wikipedia. Our dictionary is based on a corpus; the terms and their definitions were automatically extracted and annotated by experts (cf. Kruse/Heid 2020). The dictionary is bilingual, covering German and English; it gives equivalents, definitions and semantically related terms. For the implementation of the dictionary, we used LexO (Bellandi et al. 2017). The target group of the dictionary are students of mathematics who attend lectures in German and work with English resources. We carried out tests to understand which items the students search for when they work on graph-theoretical tasks. We ran the same test twice, with comparable student groups, either allowing Wikipedia as an information source or our dictionary. The dictionary seems to be especially helpful for students who already have a vague idea of a term because they can use the resource to check if their idea is right.
This paper describes the results of an empirical investigation carried out within the project Lessico Multilingue dei Beni Culturali (LBC), whose aim is to create a multilingual online dictionary of the lexicon of the Italian artistic heritage. The dictionary, whose lexicographic process has already started, is intended for linguists and specialist translators as well as for professionals in the tourism sector and students of Foreign Languages and Literatures. The investigation conducted through a questionnaire submitted to undergraduate students at the University of Milan and at the University of Florence has a double aim: to research the habits in the use of lexicographic tools by possible users of the dictionary (Italian Learners of German Language), and to identify preferences regarding macro-, medio- and microstructural features of the future LBC-dictionary to realize a user-friendly tool. After a brief introduction on the state of the art of the survey in the field of Dictionary Users Studies, the article describes the questionnaire and the results obtained from the pilot study. A summary and a discussion on the future developments of the project conclude the work.
