This paper asks whether and in which ways managing coordination tasks in traffic involve the accomplishment of intersubjectivity. Taking instances of coordinating passing an obstacle with oncoming traffic as the empirical case, four different practices were found.
1. Intersubjectivity can be presupposed by expecting others to stick to the traffic code and other mutually shared expectations.
2. Intersubjective solutions emerge step by step by mutual responsive-anticipatory adaptation of driving decisions.
3. Intersubjectivity can be accomplished by explicit interactive negotiation of passages.
4. Coordination problems can be solved without relying on intersubjectivity by unilateral, responsive-anticipatory adaptation to others’ behaviors.
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).
Wir diskutieren in diesem Beitrag Implikationen, mit denen man zu tun bekommt, wenn man kleinste Formen situativer Vergesellschaftung – wir sprechen von kommunikativen Minimalformen – untersucht. Kommunikative Minimalformen sind kurzzeitige, nur wenige Sekunden dauernde, gemeinsam konstituierte Interaktionsereignisse. Ungeachtet ihrer Kürze weisen sie zum einen eine komplexe Interaktionsstruktur auf. Zum anderen besitzen sie auch eine klare soziale Implikation und eigene Wertigkeit. In dem hier untersuchten Fall, bei dem Passanten durch ein offenes Fenster in einen Privatraum blicken und dabei ertappt werden, zeigt sich diese soziale Implikativität als moralische Kommunikation im Sinne der interaktiven Bearbeitung eigenen Fehlverhaltens.
Based on the empirical data of 97 fourth-graders from three districts of Braunschweig in Germany, this paper investigates the possibility of changing semantic frames in multilingual communities. The focus of study is the verb field of self-motion. In a free-sorting task involving 52 verbs, Turkish-speaking students, in particular, placed the verbs schleichen (‘to sneak’) and kommen (‘to come’) in the same group. When explaining the perceived similarity they also used the word schleichen (‘to sneak’), in a specific grammatical construction that is not found in Standard German. This paper suggests that semantic frames may change along with grammatical constructions when typologically distinct languages come into close contact.
Terminological resources play a central role in the organization and retrieval of scientific texts. Both simple keyword lists and advanced modelings of relationships between terminological concepts can make a most valuable contribution to the analysis, classification, and finding of appropriate digital documents, either on the web or within local repositories. This seems especially true for long-established scientific fields with elusive theoretical and historical branches, where the use of terminology within documents from different origins is often far from being consistent. In this paper, we report on the progress of a linguistically motivated project on the onomasiological re-modeling of the terminological resources for the grammatical information system grammis. We present the design principles and the results of their application. In particular, we focus on new features for the authoring backend and discuss how these innovations help to evaluate existing, loosely structured terminological content, as well as to efficiently deal with automatic term extraction. Furthermore, we introduce a transformation to a future SKOS representation. We conclude with a positioning of our resources with regard to the Knowledge Organization discourse and discuss how a highly complex information environment like grammis benefits from the re-designed terminological KOS.
We continue the study of the reproducibility of Propp’s annotations from Bod et al. (2012). We present four experiments in which test subjects were taught Propp’s annotation system; we conclude that Propp’s system needs a significant amount of training, but that with sufficient time investment, it can be reliably trained for simple tales.
Unterschiede bei Dialektübersetzungen in Abhängigkeit von schriftlichen und mündlichen Stimuli
(2016)
When collecting linguistic data using translation tasks, stimuli can be presented in written or in oral form. In doing so, there is a possibility that a systematic source of error can occur that can be traced back to the selected survey method and which can influence the results of the translation tasks. This contribution investigates whether and to what extent both of the aforementioned survey methods result in divergent results when using translation tasks. For this investigation, 128 informants provided linguistic data; each informant had to translate 25 Wenker sentences from Standard German into either East Swabian, Lechrain or West Central Bavarian dialect, as the case may be. The results show two tendencies. First, written stimuli lead to a slightly higher number of dialectal translation in segmental variables. Second, when oral stimuli are used, syntactic and lexical variables are translated significantly more often in such a manner that they diverge from the template. The results can be explained in terms of varying cognitive processing operations and the constraints of human working memory. When collecting data in the future, these tendencies should be taken into account.
Der vorliegende Beitrag thematisiert zwei unterschiedliche Forschungsergebnisse aus der Auswertung des Korpus »Deutsch heute«. Im ersten Teil wird in einem lautsystematischen Aufriss die phonetische Variation, wie sie sich in der Vorleseaussprache der österreichischen Schülerinnen in den Korpusdaten manifestiert, dargestellt. Ein zweiter Teil des Beitrags präsentiert metasprachliche Äußerungen aus sprachbiographischen Interviews, die Einblicke in sprachbezogene Kategorien und Konzepte der jungen Österreicherinnen geben und Rückschlüsse auf Spracheinstellungen zulassen. Die Schülerinnen bestätigen nicht nur verschiedene Facetten des für Österreich anzunehmenden diaglossischen Verhältnisses der Varietäten durch ihren Formengebrauch, sondern auch in metasprachlichen Aussagen, die einen hohen Grad der Bewusstheit des eigenen Sprachgebrauchs sowie der formalen wie auch soziosymbolischen Unterschiede der Varietäten erkennen lassen.
