DDR-Phraseologie oder Parteijargon? Ein Fallstudie am Beispiel von Goodbye, Lenin!
2009
Dieser Beitrag ist einer phraseologischen Untersuchung von Wolfgang Beckers erfolgreichem Film Goodbye, Lenin! gewidmet. Ziel der Analyse ist es zu zeigen, dass viele meistens als SED-typisch betrachtete stilistische Züge aus phraseologischer Sicht untersucht werden können bzw. sollten. Nach einer im Sprachgebrauch verankerten Definition der ehemaligen DDR-Sprachvarietät, widmet sich der Hauptteil des Beitrags einer funktionalen Analyse der eingesetzten Sprachfertigteile, wobei auch ihre Rolle für die ironische Dimension des Films berücksichtigt wird.
Register affects language comprehension: ERP evidence from article omission in newspaper headlines
2011
Abstract Language processing involving syntax-discourse interface operations has been claimed to be particularly resource-consuming. In production, this additional complexity is claimed to be the source of article omission in the speech of young children and certain language-impaired speakers. In comprehension, article omission in some “special registers” (e.g., newspaper headlines) has been attributed to the trade-off between spending more processing resources and increasing processing speed. We investigated the comprehension of noun phrases (NPs) with and without articles (e.g., (a) policeman arrests (a) monk) when readers were or were not aware of reading headlines by recording electroph…
Phrase frames in English pharmaceutical discourse a corpus-driven study of intradisciplinary register variation
2015
Focusing on the exploration of intra-disciplinary register variation in the pharmaceutical domain, this corpus-driven study attempts to describe the use, composition and discourse functions of phrase frames, that is, contiguous sequences of words identical except for one (Fletcher, 2002-2007), found in samples of four English pharmaceutical text types, such as patient information leaflets, summaries of product characteristics, clinical trial protocols and chapters/sections from academic textbooks on pharmacology. The study deals with a specific sub-type of phrase frames, that is, 4-word units with a variable slot in the medial position, e.g. be * with caution, to take * medicine. The result…
Keywords and lexical bundles within English pharmaceutical discourse: A corpus-driven description
2015
Abstract Little attention has been paid so far to keywords and lexical bundles used in the English language typical of the pharmaceutical field. Conducted from a register-perspective (Biber & Conrad, 2009), this exploratory and descriptive research is intended to fill in the gap in corpus linguistics studies on phraseology and register variation within written English pharmaceutical discourse. More specifically, this empirical study presents a corpus-driven description of the use and functions of keywords (top-50 by keyness) complemented by a similar description of lexical bundles (top-50 by frequency) used across samples of patient information leaflets, summaries of product characteristics…
Is there a formula for formulaic language?
2015
AbstractThis paper focuses on detecting and measuring traces of "formulaic language". For this purpose, we test a number of computational formulae that quantify the degree to which a text type incorporates inflexible sequences of words. We assess these candidate indices using a number of reference corpora representing a wide variety of text types, both routine and creative. We adopt the concept of "phrase-frame" proposed by Fletcher (2002–2007) as a means of exploring phraseological pattern variability. To date, there have been few studies explicitly addressing this issue, with the exception of Roemer (2010). We examine ten productivity indices, including Roemer's VPR, the Herfindahl-Hirsch…
Register Variation Across English Pharmaceutical Texts: A Corpus-driven Study of Keywords, Lexical Bundles and Phrase Frames in Patient Information L…
2013
Abstract This study constitutes an initial step towards filling a gap in corpus linguistics studies of linguistic and phraseological variation across English pharmaceutical texts, in particular in terms of recurrent linguistic patterns. The study conducted from a register- perspective ( Biber & Conrad, 2009 ), which employs both quantitative and qualitative research procedures, aims to provide a corpus-driven description of vocabulary and phraseology, namely key words, lexical bundles, and phrase frames, used in patient information leaflets and summaries of product characteristics (represented by 463 and 146 texts, respectively) written originally in English and collected in two domain-spec…
Measuring Meaning
2021
This study will present a tool designed for meaning extraction with monoclausal sentences in Italian. Its main features will be illustrated with instances of the Italian causative clause type featuring the verb fare ‘make’ (e.g. Egli fa piangere il bambino ‘He makes the child cry’), a construction which invariably embeds a clause (e.g.Il bambino piange ‘The child cries’) with which it establishes an entailment relationship. The tool automatically accomplishes the following tasks: it answers relevantwh- questions (e.g. Who cries? Who makes someone cry?) and detects the entailment. Concurrent with this presentation, this study will also encourage a reflection on the research currently being c…

Intorno a Cees Nooteboom e José Saramago. Quando la scrittura di finzione presta le parole al dibattito artistico contemporaneo
2013
Scritti di storia dell'arte in onore di Jolanda Nigro Covre, professore di storia dell'arte contemporanea presso l'Università La Sapienza di Roma. In particolare, il testo di Gabriella De Marco, vuole essere un contributo teso tra storia dell'arte, storia della critica d'arte e letteratura contemporanea: affronta infatti partendo da alcuni romanzi dello scrittore olandese Nooteboom e del premio Nobel Saramago alcuni aspetti che riguardano la ricerca figurativa attuale.
