Book Kontrastive Grammatik Spanisch Deutsch  Zur syntaktischen Adjektivstellung im Spanischen

Download or read book Kontrastive Grammatik Spanisch Deutsch Zur syntaktischen Adjektivstellung im Spanischen written by Zaneta Nowak and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2013-08-07 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2007 im Fachbereich Romanistik - Hispanistik, Note: 1.7, Universität zu Köln (Romanisches Seminar), Veranstaltung: Kontrastive Grammatik, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit, wie der Titel zu implizieren vermag, befasst sich mit dem Thema der Adjektivstellung im Spanischen. In Gesamtheit wird hier die Problematik des syntaktischen Verhaltens jener Wortart in der spanischen Sprache behandelt und anhand von deutschen und spanischen Sätzen demonstriert, was den gegebenen Fallbeispiel näher erläutern sollen.1 Andere romanischen Sprachen, wie das Französische oder Italienische werden in die Arbeit nicht zusätzlich mit eingebunden (abgesehen von wenigen statistischen Angaben), da es aufgrund der großen grammatikalischen Differenzen in Bezug auf die Adjektivstellung in der jeweiligen Sprache den thematischen Rahmen sprengen würde. Um überhaupt im Stande zu sein das Leitmotiv adäquat untersuchen zu können, wird primär das Konzept des Adjektivs näher definiert, welches auch schließlich die Quintessenz dieser Seminararbeit sein wird. Anschließend wird dargestellt, in welchen Fällen das Adjektiv in der spanischen Sprache zur Voran- und in welchen Fällen es zur Nachstellung tendiert, da es eine äußerst hohe Variabilität in der Satzstellung aufweist. Es werden verschiedene Ursachen und Aufgliederungen der postnominalen Adjektive erörtert, da diese Position des Adjektivs den häufigsten Stellungstyp darbietet. Als nächstes wird das gleiche Prozedere bei der Apposition durchgeführt. Im Anschluss daran folgt das Resümee in der eine kurze Auswertung und Vergleich mit anderen romanischen Sprachen gezeigt wird. Abschließend werden verschiedene und sich gegenüberstehende Theorien zur Adjektivstellung vorgeführt, ebenso wie die dazugehörigen Kritikpunkte der Linguistin und Autorin Ann- Kathrin Mälzer auf dessen Studien dieser Teil der Arbeit hauptsächlich basieren wird. Da es zu dieser Problematik reichlich diverse Standpunkte, sowie sich einander ähnelnde Theorien gibt2, werden diejenigen ausgewählt die für die besprochene Thematik am repräsentativsten erschienen. Demnach werden hierzu einige Theorien aus den Sprachwissenschaften herangezogen, die u.a. zur Synchron- oder auch der Extensionstheorie gehören.

Book Germania Semitica

Download or read book Germania Semitica written by Theo Vennemann gen. Nierfeld and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Germania Semitica explores prehistoric language contact in general, and attempts to identify the languages involved in shaping Germanic in particular. The book deals with a topic outside the scope of other disciplines concerned with prehistory, such as archaeology and genetics, drawing its conclusions from the linguistic evidence alone, relying on language typology and areal probability. The data for reconstruction comes from Germanic syntax, phonology, etymology, religious loan names, and the writing system, more precisely from word order, syntactic constructions, word formation, irregularities in phonological form, lexical peculiarities, and the structure and rules of the Germanic runic alphabet. It is demonstrated that common descent is neither a necessary nor a sufficient condition for reconstruction. Instead, lexical and structural parallels between Germanic and Semitic languages are explored and interpreted in the framework of modern language contact theory.

Book Europa Vasconica   Europa Semitica

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the theory that the linguistic and cultural landscape of Europe north of the Alps and the Pyrenees was shaped in prehistoric times by the interaction of Indo-European speakers with speakers of languages related to Basque and to Semitic. These influences on the lexicon, grammar, and toponymy of the West Indo-European languages (with special focus on Germanic) are demonstrated in German and English research papers, provided here with summaries, commentaries, and a new introduction in English, and with general and etymological indexes.

Download or read book Barbarian Spring written by Jonas Lüscher and published by Haus Publishing. This book was released on 2015-03-15 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a business trip to Tunisia, Preising, a leading Swiss industrialist, is invited to spend the week with the daughter of a local gangster. He accompanies her to the wedding of two London city traders at a desert luxury resort that was once the site of an old Berber oasis. With the wedding party in full swing and the bride riding up the aisle on a camel, no one is aware that the global financial system stands on the brink of collapse. As the wedding guests nurse their hangovers, they learn that the British pound has depreciated tenfold, and their world begins to crumble around them. So begins Barbarian Spring, the debut novel from Jonas Lüscher, a major emerging voice in European fiction. The timely and unusual novel centers on a culture clash between high finance and the value system of the Maghreb. Provocative and entertaining, Barbarian Spring is a refreshingly original and all-too-believable satire for our times.

Book Language Change and Generative Grammar

Download or read book Language Change and Generative Grammar written by Ellen Brandner and published by Linguistische Berichte Sonderhefte. This book was released on 1996-12 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ellen Brandner, Gisella Ferraresi The strong connection between language change and language acquisition has been known for a long time in traditional linguistics. The neogrammarian Paul wrote in 1920: "Es liegt auf der Hand, daß die Vorgänge der Spracherlernung von der al lergrößten Wichtigkeit für die Erklärung der Veränderung des Sprachusus sind, weil sie die wichtigste Ursache für diese Veränderung abgeben." But what is the reason why a child's grammar differs from that of his or her environ ment? Can we say that there are some principles which govern this change? Many linguists have tried to answer these important questions from different view points. We will sketch he re some of the most interesting ones. Sapir (1921) develops the principle of drift which was meant to describe the laws of diachronic change in linguistic systems. This concerns long-term tendencies of gram matical change, which probably are of universal character but result in one or another effect, according to the specific structure of a given language. The tendencies concerning syntactical change are determined by morphological change; morphological change, for its part, is determined by phonological change. All such instances of change aim at the one and only goal to always provide sufficient means for expressing all those grammatical relations which are necessary to keep up communication.

Book A Practical Guide for Translators

Download or read book A Practical Guide for Translators written by Geoffrey Samuelsson-Brown and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2010-03-24 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fifth revised edition of the best-selling A Practical Guide for Translators. It looks at the profession of translator on the basis of developments over the last few years and encourages both practitioners and buyers of translation services to view translation as a highly-qualified, skilled profession and not just a cost-led word mill. The book is intended principally for those who have little or no practical experience of translation in a commercial environment. It offers comprehensive advice on all aspects relevant to the would-be translator and, whilst intended mainly for those who wish to go freelance, it is also relevant to the staff translator as a guide to organisation of work and time. Advice is given on how to set up as a translator, from the purchase of equipment to the acquisition of clients. The process of translation is discussed from initial enquiry to delivery of the finished product. Hints are given on how to assess requirements, how to charge for work, how to research and use source material, and how to present the finished product. Guidance is given on where to obtain further advice and professional contacts. This revised edition updates practices in the translation profession and considers the impact of web-based translation offerings. Industry and commerce rely heavily on the skills of the human translator and his ability to make intellectual decisions that is, as yet, beyond the capacity of computer-aided translation.

Book The future of dialects

Download or read book The future of dialects written by Marie-Hélène Côté and published by Language Science Press. This book was released on 2016-02-05 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditional dialects have been encroached upon by the increasing mobility of their speakers and by the onslaught of national languages in education and mass media. Typically, older dialects are “leveling” to become more like national languages. This is regrettable when the last articulate traces of a culture are lost, but it also promotes a complex dynamics of interaction as speakers shift from dialect to standard and to intermediate compromises between the two in their forms of speech. Varieties of speech thus live on in modern communities, where they still function to mark provenance, but increasingly cultural and social provenance as opposed to pure geography. They arise at times from the need to function throughout the different groups in society, but they also may have roots in immigrants’ speech, and just as certainly from the ineluctable dynamics of groups wishing to express their identity to themselves and to the world. The future of dialects is a selection of the papers presented at Methods in Dialectology XV, held in Groningen, the Netherlands, 11-15 August 2014. While the focus is on methodology, the volume also includes specialized studies on varieties of Catalan, Breton, Croatian, (Belgian) Dutch, English (in the US, the UK and in Japan), German (including Swiss German), Italian (including Tyrolean Italian), Japanese, and Spanish as well as on heritage languages in Canada.

Book Contrastive Phraseology

Download or read book Contrastive Phraseology written by Paola Cotta Ramusino and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is addressed to researchers in the field of phraseology, and to teachers, translators and lexicographers. It is a collection of essays offering a comprehensive, modern analysis of phrasemes, embracing a wide range of subjects and themes, from linguistic, both applied and theoretical, to cultural aspects. The contrastive approach underlying this variety of themes allows the divergences and analogies between phraseological units in two or more languages to be outlined. The languages compared here are both major and minor, European and non-European, and the text includes contrastive analyses of the most commonly investigated languages (French-German, English-Spanish, Russian-German), as well as some less frequently investigated languages (like Ukrainian, Romanian, Georgian and Thai), which are not as well-represented in phraseological description, despite their scientific interest.
