We report results from an exploratory study of college students’ conceptions of poetry in which we asked them to name three things they expect from a poem. Frequency- and list-based analyses of their responses revealed that they primarily expect poems to rhyme, but they also identified a number of form-, content-, and reception-related genre expectations, which we discuss in relation to relevant previous research. We propose that rhyme’s predominance in college students’ genre expectations reflects its perceptual and cognitive salience during incremental poetry comprehension rather than its frequency in contemporary poetic practice. Our results characterize the genre conceptions of the population that empirical studies of poetry comprehension typically investigate, and thus provide relevant background information for the interpretation of empirical
findings in this field.
Simultandolmetschen ist eine komplexe und kognitive Aktivität, bei der verschiedene Prozesse gleichzeitig ablaufen. Neben monolingualer Textverarbeitung braucht man auch dolmetschspezifische Strategien, die erworben werden müssen. Die Notstrategien werden erst dann angewendet, wenn die Kapazitätsgrenze des Dolmetschers erreicht ist.
Kontrastiv-multilingual angelegte empirische Studien erfordern eine vergleichbare Datengrundlage. Je nachdem, welche Forschungsfragen im Zentrum der sprachvergleichenden Untersuchungen stehen, bieten sich entweder Parallelkorpora oder vergleichbare einzelsprachliche Korpora als Datengrundlage an. Dieser Beitrag verfolgt hauptsächlich das Ziel, die Herausforderungen aufzuzeigen, die die Arbeit mit vergleichbaren Korpora im multilingualen Sprachvergleich aufwirft. Dabei soll u.a. das Prinzip der Vergleichbarkeit von Korpora thematisiert und methodologische Vorschläge für konkrete empirisch angelegte sprachvergleichende Analysen vorgelegt werden. Die Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der empirisch basierten quantitativen und qualitativen Analysearbeit werden durch die Präsentation einiger exemplarischer Forschungsfragen und -ergebnisse aufgezeigt. Einige Desiderata für zukünftige korpusbasierte Studien auf der Basis von vergleichbaren Korpora im multilingualen Raum schließen den Beitrag ab.
Uneigentliches Reden, insbesondere die Schaffung und Verwendung von Metaphern und Metonymien, ist weit stärker sprachstrukturell lizenziert als es der kreativ-sprachspielerische Effekt vermuten lässt, der durch neue Tropen erzeugt wird. In diesem Beitrag wird es vor allem um das Konzept des paradigmatischen metaphorischen Musters gehen, dem zufolge die Wörter innerhalb eines Wortfelds ein ähnliches, auf abstrakten Merkmalen basierendes metaphorisches Potenzial entfalten. Dazu werde ich zunächst in Abschnitt 2 auf paradigmatische metonymische Muster eingehen, die in verschiedenen Kontexten und unter verschiedenen Bezeichnungen bereits häufiger untersucht wurden. In Abschnitt 3 werden grundlegende Überlegungen zur Metapher vorgestellt, und in Abschnitt 4 entwickle ich anhand verschiedener Beispiele das Konzept des metaphorischen Musters. In Abschnitt 5 wird der Zusammenhang zwischen metaphorischen Mustern und konzeptuellen Metaphern beleuchtet
Sich selbst und andere politisch zu gesellschaftlichen Themen zu positionieren, ist eine elementare sprachliche und soziale Praxis. Ziel der Akademiekonferenz war es, zu verstehen, wie Positionierungen vollzogen werden, ob bzw. inwiefern sie politisch sind und in welchem wechselseitigen Zusammenhang sie zu gesellschaftlichen, sozialen und politischen Arrangements und Ordnungen stehen. Das Thema der politischen Positionierung wurde in sieben Panels durch unterschiedliche geistes- und sozialwissenschaftliche Disziplinen wie Linguistik, Soziologie, Geschichts-, Literatur- oder Politikwissenschaft bearbeitet. Die Fokussierung von sprachlichen Diskurspraktiken in diversen sozialen und politischen Zusammenhängen zog sich dabei als roter Faden durch die Beiträge.
In this paper, the author studies the role of the dictionary in the first language acquisition, highlighting its didactic value. Based on two Romanian lexicographical works of the 19th century, Lexiconul de la Buda (Buda, 1825) [the Lexicon of Buda] et Vocabularu romano-francesu (Bucarest, 1870) [the Romanian-French Vocabulary], the author analyses the normative information recorded in the articles in order to observe which level of language (i. e. phonetical, morphological, syntactical and lexical) is concerned. Such an approach allows to distinguish between the possible changings both at the level of the perception or at the grammatical, lexical and semantical description, i. e. the settlement of the word in the first language, and at a technical level, i. e. the making of article and of dictionary.
This paper presents the decisions behind the design of a maths dictionary for primary school children. We are aware that there has been a considerable problem regarding Mexican children’s performance in maths dragging on for a long time, and far from getting better, it is getting worse. One of the probable causes seems to be the lack of coordination between maths textbooks and teaching methods. Most maths textbooks used in primary schools include lots of activities and problem-solving techniques, but hardly any conceptual information in the form of definitions or explanations. Consequently, many children learn to do things, but have difficulty understanding mathematical concepts and applying them in different contexts. To help solve this problem, at least partially, the project of the dictionary was launched aiming at helping children to grasp and understand maths concepts learned during those first six years of their formal education. The dictionary is a corpus-based terminographical product whose macrostructure, microstructure, typography, and additional information were specifically designed to help children understand mathematical concepts.
This paper deals with the lexicographic treatment of the evidently plenty and pervasive scatological vocabulary, that is vocabulary concerning the process and products of bodily excretion (especially feces), in the synchronic Early New High German Dictionary (FWB = Frühneuhochdeutsches Wörterbuch) from a dictionary user’s view. Initially, different cultural concepts of scatology by Norbert Elias, Michail Bachtin and Mary Douglas among others and the term taboo are reflected. Subsequently, selected lexical items such as words with a primary scatological meaning (e. g. drek, kot, scheisse), concealing expressions (euphemisms, periphrases, metaphors, e. g. sitzen, seine notdurft tun, bauernveiel), and certain aspects within the polysemy of the verb scheissen are discussed, the latter on the one hand referring to a physical process with uncontrollable aspects and on the other hand denoting a deliberate action and functionalized as a fighting word during the reformation. Focussing on different positions of lexicographical information within the microstructure of the FWB, the surveillance shows that in a synchronic perspective Early New High German scatological vocabulary is a heterogeneous and complex phenomenon due to speaker, context and respectively semantic and pragmatic purposes
To effectively design online tools and develop sophisticated programs, for the teaching of Ancient Greek language, there is a clear need for lexical resources that provide semantic links with Modern Greek. This paper proposes a microstructure for an online Ancient Greek to Modern Greek thesaurus (AMGthes) that serves educational purposes. The terms of this bilingual thesaurus have been selected from reference Ancient Greek texts, taught and studied during lower and upper secondary education in Greece. The main objective here is to build a semantic map that helps students find relevant and semanti- cally related terms (synonyms and antonyms) in Ancient Greek, and then provide a rich set of suitable translations and definitions in Modern Greek. Designed to be an online resource, the thesaurus is being developed using web technologies, and thus will be available to every school and university student that pursues a degree in digital humanities.
The paper presents the results of empirical research conducted with students from the Faculty of Translation studies of Ventspils University of Applied Sciences (VUAS) in Latvia. The study investigates the habits and practices concerning the use of dictionaries on the part of translation students, as well as types of dictionaries used, frequency of use, etc. The study also presents an insight into the evaluation of the usefulness of dictionaries by Latvian students. The research describes the advantages and disadvantages of dictionaries used by the respondents, the importance of the preface and the explanation of the terms and abbreviations used in dictionaries. The research conducted, as well as the insights, results and recommendations presented, will be relevant for the lexicographic community, as it reflects the experience of one Latvian University to improve the teaching of dictionary use and lexicographic culture in this country and to complement dictionary use research with the Latvian experience.
