Nur ein paar Überlegungen und Beobachtungen zur Frage nach dem Umfang des deutschen Wortschatzes. Zahlenangaben aus Wörterbüchern und Korpusrecherchen werden referiert. Anhand von Beispielen veralteter, alternder, neuer Wörter und produktiver Wortbildungsmuster wird die prinzipielle Offenheit des Wortschatzes demonstriert.
This paper investigates emergent pseudo-coordination in spoken German. In a corpus-based study, seven verbs in the first conjunct are analyzed regarding the degree of semantic bleaching and the development of subjective or aspectual meaning components. Moreover, it is shown that each verb shows distinct tendencies for co-ocurrences, especially with deictic adverbs in the first conjunct and with specific verbs and verb classes in the second conjunct. It is argued that pseudo-coordination is originally motivated by the need for ‘chunking’ in unplanned speech and that it is still prominently used in this function in German, in contrast to languages in which pseudo-coordination is grammaticalized further.
