Mit diesem Bild beschreibt Hermann Unterstöger in einem „Sprachlabor“- Artikel der Süddeutschen Zeitung vom 23.3.2013 die Erfolgsgeschichte, die das Substantiv (das) Narrativ in den letzten 30 Jahren vorgelegt hat. Während Unterstöger feinsinnig den intertextuellen Bezug zum „Narrenschiff“ des Sebastian Brant oder dem gleichnamigen Roman von Katherine Ann Porter bemüht, wird Matthias Heine, der Autor von „Seit wann hat geil nichts mehr mit Sex zu tun? 100 deutsche Wörter und ihre erstaunlichen Karrieren“ in einem Artikel in der WELT vom 13.11.2016, wie nach diesem Buchtitel zu erwarten, eher grob: Dort heißt es: „Hinz und Kunz schwafeln heutzutage vom ,Narrativ‘“.
In German there are about twenty-five elements (like gemäß, nahe, voll) that seem to be used as a preposition along with their use as an adjective. In former approaches the preposition is interpreted as the product of grammaticalizing (and/or reanalyzing) the adjective. It is argued that the two criteria these approaches rely on, namely change of linear position and change of case government, are insufficient. In this paper, seven criteria for distinguishing adjectives form prepositions in German are put forward. What is most important is that these criteria have to be evaluated on the token level as well as on the level of type and word class/syntactic category. It can be shown that the individual ‘adjective-prepositions' as types possess a specific mixture of adjective-like and preposition-like features. On the token level, occurring as part of a postnominal restrictive attribute is indicative for preposition-like status in German. The comparison of German with English and Italian adjective-prepositions (like near, far, due and vicino, lontano) reveals a lot of differences, which counts as evidence for the language-specific nature of word classes. Nevertheless, Lehmanns functional-typological approach uncovers a fundamental functional similarity between complement governing adjectives and prepositions: the primary function of the phrases, i.e., adjective/preposition + complement, is to modify a nominal or a verbal concept, respectively. This insight explains why adjective-prepositions can be found cross-linguistically. The question whether we should propose one type or two types for gemäß and its cognates is of minor importance only.
Emoticons erfreuen sich auf der ganzen Welt großer Beliebtheit, vor allem in der alltäglichen elektronischen Kommunikation wie E-Mail, SMS, Forumsdiskussionen, Instant Messaging, Facebook oder Twitter. Zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte wurde 2015 von den Sprachbeobachtern der britischen Oxford Dictionaries ein Emoticon zum Wort des Jahres gewählt: das Grinsegesicht, dem die Freudentränen aus den Augen spritzen (vgl.<www.sueddeutsche.de/kultur/britisches-wortdes-jahres-was-haben wir-gelacht-1.2740952>, Stand: 8.11.2017). Die Jury begründete ihre Wahl wie folgt: „[E]moji have come to embody a core aspect of living in a digital world that is visually driven, emotionally expressive, and obsessively immediate.“
Corpus researchers, along with many other disciplines in science are being put under continual pressure to show accountability and reproducibility in their work. This is unsurprisingly difficult when the researcher is faced with a wide array of methods and tools through which to do their work; simply tracking the operations done can be problematic, especially when toolchains are often configured by the developers, but left largely as a black box to the user. Here we present a scheme for encoding this ‘meta data’ inside the corpus files themselves in a structured data format, along with a proof-of-concept tool to record the operations performed on a file.

Unlike traditional text corpora collected from trustworthy sources, the content of web based corpora has to be filtered. This study briefly discusses the impact of web spam on corpus usability and emphasizes the importance of removing computer generated text from web corpora.
The paper also presents a keyword comparison of an unfiltered corpus with the same collection of texts cleaned by a supervised classifier trained using FastText. The classifier was able to recognize 71% of web spam documents similar to the training set but lacked both precision and recall when applied to short texts from another data set.
Forms of committed relationships, including formal marriage arrangements between men and women, exist in almost every culture (Bell, 1997). Yet, similarly to many other psychological constructs (Henrich et al., 2010), marital satisfaction and its correlates have been investigated almost exclusively in Western countries (e.g., Bradbury et al., 2000). Meanwhile, marital relationships are heavily guided by culturally determined norms, customs, and expectations (for review see Berscheid, 1995; Fiske et al., 1998). While we acknowledge the differences existing both between- and within-cultures, we measured marital satisfaction and several factors that might potentially correlate with it based on self-report data from individuals across 33 countries. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the raw data available for anybody interested in further examining any relations between them and other country-level scores obtained elsewhere. Below, we review the central variables that are likely to be related to marital satisfaction.
Sprachwissenschaft geht logozentrisch vor, konzentriert sich also aufs geschriebene und seit einigen Jahrzehnten auch aufs gesprochene Wort. Das ist verständlich und sinnvoll (Schuster, bleib bei deinen Leisten!), setzt sich aber auch Scheuklappen auf und übersieht bedeutsame Erscheinungen am Rande.
This paper presents a survey on hate speech detection. Given the steadily growing body of social media content, the amount of online hate speech is also increasing. Due to the massive scale of the web, methods that automatically detect hate speech are required. Our survey describes key areas that have been explored to automatically recognize these types of utterances using natural language processing. We also discuss limits of those approaches.
The Manatee corpus management system on which the Sketch Engine is built is efficient, but unable to harness the power of today’s multiprocessor machines. We describe a new, compatible implementation of Manatee which we develop in the Go language and report on the performance gains that we obtained.
Verstehen und Motivieren: semantische Fluchtpunkte deutscher und italienischer Lexeme mit -log-

In the NLP literature, adapting a parser to new text with properties different from the training data is commonly referred to as domain adaptation. In practice, however, the differences between texts from different sources often reflect a mixture of domain and genre properties, and it is by no means clear what impact each of those has on statistical parsing. In this paper, we investigate how differences between articles in a newspaper corpus relate to the concepts of genre and domain and how they influence parsing performance of a transition-based dependency parser. We do this by applying various similarity measures for data point selection and testing their adequacy for creating genre-aware parsing models.
