Download or read book Language and Meaning written by Christopher Beedham and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2005-11-08 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illustrates the structuralist idea that language creates the reality we perceive. The data presented in this volume focus on the problematic issues of the passive construction and irregular (strong) verbs, with examples taken primarily from English with separate subsections on German and Russian. The author presents a new and different analysis of these complex topics which proceeds from the levels of form to meaning rather than the traditional and generative methodologies that follow the opposite path from meaning to form. This book will be of interest to all linguists who have ever confronted the controversial question of the interaction between lexical exceptions and grammatical rules. The scope of this volume is rather broad and it compares and contrasts text grammar versus sentence grammar in an innovative way.
Download or read book Proceedings of GALA 2017 written by Pedro Guijarro-Fuentes and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is a comprehensive, state-of-the-science treatment of the acquisition of different Indo- and Non-Indo-European languages in different contexts (i.e., L1, L2, L3/Ln, bi/multilingual language, heritage languages, pathology and language impairment and sign language acquisition) conducted within the generative framework. It also encompasses the diversity of methodologies and issues that can be found with contemporary research in the field. The different chapters contain original research from several different angles and provide a basis for dialogue between researchers working on diverse projects with the aim to further our understanding of how languages are acquired and, at the same time, refine and propose new theoretical constructs, such as complexity of linguistic features as a relevant factor forming children’s, adult’s and bilingual’s acquisition of syntactic, morphological, lexical and phonological structures.
Download or read book Discourse Particles written by Xabier Artiagoitia and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discourse particles have often been treated as a phenomenon restricted to Germanic languages (Abraham 2020) and they still raise questions about their nature as an independent category. This book reveals that this phenomenon exists in other languages as well, and provides evidence for their nature as a separate category. The volume brings together a collection of nine papers that focus on three research topics: a) the diachronic development of discourse particles; b) their syntactic analysis; and c) the study of their semantic-pragmatics. Furthermore, it also discusses other issues less often dealt with in the literature but of great interest for linguistic theory, such as the acquisition of discourse particles by children or the analysis of elements not usually considered discourse particles but whose historical path or microvariation indicates otherwise. Additionally, the book offers a cross-linguistic perspective as it discusses various languages including Basque, Catalan, German, Italian, Laz, Mandarin Chinese, Old English, Portuguese, and Spanish.
Download or read book Picturebooks Representation and Narration written by Bettina Kümmerling-Meibauer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-03 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume discusses the aesthetic and cognitive challenges of modern picturebooks from different countries, such as Denmark, France, Germany, Norway, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, and USA. The overarching issue concerns the mutual relationship between representation and narration by means of the picturebooks’ multimodal character. Moreover, this volume includes the main lines of debate and approaches to picturebooks by international leading researchers in the field. Topics covered are the impact of paratexts and interpictorial allusions, the relationship between artists’ books, crossover picturebooks, and picturebooks for adults, the narrative defiance of wordless picturebooks, the representation of emotions in images and text, and the depiction of hybrid characters in picturebooks. The enlargement of the picturebook corpus beyond an Anglo-American picturebook canon opens up new horizons and highlights the diverging styles and genre shifts in modern picturebooks. This tendency also demonstrates the influence of specific authors and illustrators on the appreciation of the picturebook genre, as in the case of Astrid Lindgren’s picturebooks and the picturebooks created by renowned illustrators, such as Anthony Browne, Wolf Erlbruch, Stian Hole, and Bruno Munari. This book will be the definite contribution to contemporary picturebook research for many years to come.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Compounding written by Rochelle Lieber and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-29 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive review of theoretical work on the linguistics and psycholinguistics of compound words and combines it with a series of surveys of compounding in a variety of languages from a wide range of language families. Compounding is an effective way to create and express new meanings. Compound words are segmentable into their constituents so that new items can often be understood on first presentation. However, as keystone, keynote, and keyboard, and breadboard, sandwich-board, and mortarboard show, the relation between components is often far from straightforward. The question then arises, as to how far compound sequences are analysed at each encounter and how far they are stored in the brain as single lexical items? The nature and processing of compounds thus offer an unusually direct route to how language operates in the mind, as well as providing the means of investigating important aspects of morphology, and lexical semantics, and insights to child language acquisition and the organization of the mental lexicon. This book is the first to report on the state of the art on these and other central topics, including the classification and typology of compounds, and cross-linguistic research on the subject in different frameworks and from synchronic and diachronic perspectives.
Download or read book Free Variation in Grammar written by Kristin Kopf and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2023-10-15 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen a growing interest in grammatical variation, a core explanandum of grammatical theory. The present volume explores questions that are fundamental to this line of research: First, the question of whether variation can always and completely be explained by intra- or extra-linguistic predictors, or whether there is a certain amount of unpredictable – or ‘free’ – grammatical variation. Second, the question of what implications the (in-)existence of free variation would hold for our theoretical models and the empirical study of grammar. The volume provides the first dedicated book-length treatment of this long-standing topic. Following an introductory chapter by the editors, it contains ten case studies on potentially free variation in morphology and syntax drawn from Germanic, Romance, Uralic and Mayan.

Download or read book Linguistics and Literary Studies Linguistik und Literaturwissenschaft written by Monika Fludernik and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die Beiträge des Bandes zeigen, dass die disziplinäre Begegnung zwischen Sprach- und Literaturwissenschaft weit mehr ist als eine Tradition akademischer Institutionen. In 16 allgemein-theoretischen und textbezogenen Analysen werden Berührungspunkte zwischen den beiden Disziplinen beleuchtet, auch solcher institutioneller Art. Es werden die Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede zwischen Alltagsdiskurs und Literatur herausgearbeitet und linguistische Begrifflichkeiten auf literarische Texte angewandt. Dies betrifft Fragen wie Sprechakt, Referenz, und Inferenz, die Strukturen und die Relevanz des kognitiven und kulturellen Hintergrunds für beide Diskursformen, Rhetorik und Perspektivierungen, Sprach- und Schreibstile, Gattungen und andere Ebenen diskursiver Traditionen.
Download or read book The Ditransitive Alternation in Present Day German written by Hilde De Vaere and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2023-06-15 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ditransitive (or “dative”) alternation is a much-studied phenomenon in contemporary linguistics. This monograph is the first to address the alternation in present-day written German from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective. As well as providing a corpus-based analysis of extensively annotated data and detailed statistical information, the book also contributes to the theory of language by developing an alternative framework to existing investigations of the alternation. It is shown that the alternation can be accounted for in a comprehensive way by adopting a three-layer approach to meaning and sense based on the work of E. Coseriu and S. Levinson. In this approach, a construction’s language-specific encoded meaning is distinguished both from its conventional (“normal”) uses and its discourse-specific interpretations in particular contexts. The monograph is likely to attract attention from researchers in the fields of German and English linguistics, general and contrastive linguistics as well as linguistic theory.

Download or read book Grammatik und Terminologie written by Christian Lang and published by Narr Francke Attempto Verlag. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In der Grammatikforschung hat sich über die Jahre eine Vielzahl von Perspektiven, Herangehensweisen und Theorien herausgebildet, die mit oft unterschiedlichen – gelegentlich sogar widersprüchlichen – begriffl ichen Systematiken arbeiten. Diese terminologische Vielfalt stellt die Entwicklung konsistenter Erklärungsmodelle vor besondere Herausforderungen. Der vorliegende Band zur ars grammatica 2017: Grammatische Terminologie – Inhalte und Methoden enthält Beiträge, die sich im Spannungsfeld zwischen inhaltlicher Betrachtung und methodischer Anwendung mit Eigenschaften und Spezifika grammatischer Fachsprache beschäftigen. Dabei decken die Beiträge ein breites Spektrum ab und reichen von theoretischen Ausführungen der Terminologie(-forschung) über die Herausforderungen intra- und interlingualer Untersuchungen bis hin zu anwendungsorientierten Betrachtungen.
Download or read book Untersuchungen zur verbalen Valenz im biblischen Hebr isch written by Michael Malessa and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Im biblischen Hebräisch bestimmt wie in anderen Sprachen die Valenz eines Verbs die Zahl und die Form der Ergänzungen. Die Form verbaler Ergänzungen kann jedoch variieren. Wichtige Aspekte dieser Variation werden im vorliegenden Band umfassend beschrieben und erklärt, wobei syntaktische, semantische und sprachgeschichtliche Gesichtspunkte berücksichtigt werden. Im einzelnen werden die Markierung direkter Objekte und der Wechsel zwischen direkten Objekten und Präpositionalobjekten beziehungsweise zwischen verschiedenen Präpositionen bei Präpositionalobjekten untersucht. Der Gebrauch der Präposition Lamed bei Infinitiven und unterschiedliche Konstruktionen zum Ausdruck der Wahrnehmung von Sachverhalten werden ebenfalls behandelt. Das Buch liefert dadurch einen Beitrag zum Verständnis der althebräischen Syntax, der Semantik bestimmter syntaktischer Konstruktionen und der geschichtlichen Entwicklung des biblischen Hebräisch. Es richtet sich an Alttestamentler, Hebraisten und andere sprachwissenschaftlich Interessierte.
Download or read book A Bibliography on Writing and Written Language written by Konrad Ehlich and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 2896 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bibliography offers information on research about writing and written language over the past 50 years. No comprehensive bibliography on this subject has been published since Sattler's (1935) handbook. With a selection of some 27,500 titles it covers the most important literature in all scientific fields relating to writing. Emphasis has been placed on the interdisciplinary organization of the bibliography, creating many points of common interest for literacy experts, educationalists, psychologists, sociologists, linguists, cultural anthropologists, and historians. The bibliography is organized in such a way as to provide the specialist as well as the researcher in neighboring disciplines with access to the relevant literature on writing in a given field. While necessarily selective, it also offers information on more specialized bibliographies. In addition, an overview of norms and standards concerning 'script and writing' will prove very useful for non-professional readers. It is, therefore, also of interest to the generally interested public as a reference work for the humanities.
