Komposition als Element nominaler Integration passt zum Sprachtyp des Deutschen. Diese Technik wird in verschiedenen Texttypen in unterschiedlicher Weise genutzt und funktional ausdifferenziert. Zweigliedrige Komposita prägen den alltäglichen Wortschatz. Die Erfahrung damit und ihre formale Offenheit bilden den Grund für spezifische Ausweitungen des Gebrauchs. Das wird gezeigt an der die Öffnung der Muster im literarischen Bereich, dann an der Interaktion von Kompositionstypen im Hinblick auf größtmögliche Explizitheit in juristischen Texten und letztlich an der Mischung von alltäglicher Klassifikation in gängigen Komposita und textfunktionaler Kondensierung in einem Sachtext.
Multi-faceted alignment. Toward automatic detection of textual similarity in Gospel-derived texts
(2015)
Ancient Germanic Bible-derived texts stand in as test material for producing computational means for automatically determining where textual contamination and linguistic interference have influenced the translation process. This paper reports on the results of research efforts that produced a text corpus; a method for decomposing the texts involved into smaller, more directly comparable thematically-related chunks; a database of relationships between these chunks; and a user-interface allowing for searches based on various referential criteria. Finally, the state of the product at the end of the project is discussed, namely as it was handed over to another researcher who has extended it to automatically find semantic and syntactic similarities within comparable chunks.
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.
Der Beitrag gliedert sich in drei Teile. In Abschnitt 2 führe ich zunächst den Begriff der Phraseoschablone ein und erläutere, inwiefern diese Untergruppe der Phraseologismen Eigenschaften von grammatischen Konstruktionen aufweist, deren konzise Erfassung eine notwendige Voraussetzung dafür ist, Beschränkungen bei der Produktivität und der semantischen Variabilität der Phraseologismen zu erklären. Daran anschließend werden in Abschnitt 3 Ergebnisse einer korpuslinguistischen Fallstudie nominaler Reduplikationen mit den Präpositionen an, in und über dargelegt und erörtert. Abschnitt 4 fasst schließlich die erzielten Ergebnisse im übergeordneten Zusammenhang zusammen und gibt einen Ausblick auf weitere Forschungsfragen.
The present article proposes a syntactic and semantic analysis of assertive clauses that comprises their truth-conditional aspects and their speech act potential in communication. What is commonly called “illocutionary force” is differentiated into three structurally and functionally distinct layers: a judgement phrase, representing subjective epistemic and evidential attitudes; a commitment phrase, representing the social commitment related to assertions; and an act phrase, representing the relation to the common ground of the conversation. The article provides several pieces of evidence for this structure: from the interpretation and syntactic position of various classes of epistemic, evidential, affirmative and speech act-related operators, from clausal complements embedded by different types of predicates, from embedded root clauses, and from anaphora referring to different clausal projections. The syntactic assumptions are phrased within X-bar theory, and the semantic interpretation makes use of dynamic update of common ground, differentiating between informative and performative updates. The object language is German, with particular reference to verb final and verb second structure.
The paper is concerned with the filling of the right edge of a German clause with different constituents: subconstituents of the clause, arguments and modifiers of the NP, appositions and right-dislocated elements. It is argued that these different ways of filling the right edge come about in quite different ways. Subconstituents of the clause are base generated at the right edge in syntax. Constituents of the NP and appositions get to the right edge postsyntactically, i.e., they are linearised there only in the phonological component. Finally, the appearance of right-dislocated constituents is the result of two well-established deletion processes operating on two adjacent clauses.
The different mechanisms allow us to understand differences these elements show regarding positioning inside the right edge, binding and intonation. An important empirical generalisation put forward in the IDS-grammar can be captured. The grammar's controversial assumption that the right edge comprises a part which is disintegrated in between two syntactically integrated parts can be shown to be superfluous.
In current corpuslinguistic investigations, especially the collection of linguistic data and the frequency of linguistic phenomena (i.e. in the "linguistic matter") is in the center of interest of morphological discussions. This paper argues in favor of taking also morphological "antimatter" in account, i.e. surveying the structure of words containing morphological restrictions which cannot be proven systematically. With recourse to Popper's falsificationism and starting with prominent restrictions in the morphology of German, the article discusses theoretical consequences and chances for morphological theory with special emphasis on morphological change, i.e. when antimatter becomes matter and vice versa.
Constructionist approaches to grammar do not draw a clear distinction between lexicon and grammar, as generative "words and rules" accounts do. Rather, they conceptualize grammar and lexicon as a continuum of constructions of greater or lesser complexity and abstraction. In this paper, i explore the implications of this paradigm shift for the applied discipline of grammaticography. If we abandon the distinction between grammar and lexicon, should we also abandon the distinction between grammar, books and dictionaries? Drawing on a case study on the treatment of verbless constructions in the "IDS-Grammatik", it is argued that constructions should play a greater role in grammar books, but that grammar books still need to provide access to general principles of grammar.
This paper shows how experimental methods can advance syntactic description and syntactic theory. The empirical domain is the order of verbs in German verb clusters containing a modal verb in the perfect. Such clusters are special insofar as prescriptive grammar requires the finite verb to appear in cluster-initial instead of cluster-final position (e.g., hat lesen müssen 'has read must' instead of lesen müssen hat 'read must has'). Contrary to this requirement, experiments show that native speakers accept the auxiliary also in later positions as long as it precedes the modal verb. The acceptability data are corroborated by corpus data and experimental data from language production. The relevance of the experimental data for syntactic theory are discussed.
Blogg Dir deinen Urlaub nach Tunesien! Zur Erläuterung des Musters [VImp PROPReflexivDat NPAkk]
(2020)
In diesem Beitrag soll das Muster [VImp PROPReflexivDat NPAkk] semantisch und syntaktisch erläutert werden. Dieses Muster, das semantisch mit Verben des Erwerbens wie anschaffen korreliert, wird auch im Zusammenhang mit Kommunikationsverben wie bloggen und facebooken sowie mit dem Kontaktverb rubbeln belegt. Mithilfe des Konzeptes der Koerzion bzw. der semantischen Anpassung soll das Kovorkommen des erwänhten Musters mit diesen Verben beschrieben und erklärt werden. Als empirische Quelle dient das Korpus für das Deutsche 2012 und 2014 aus den Corpora from the Web. Die vorliegende Untersuchung ist im Rahmen meiner Dissertationsarbeit zum Thema Argumentstruktur und Bedeutung medialer Kommunikationsverben des Deutschen und des Spanischen im Sprachvergleich durchgeführt worden.
