The monolingual habitus of German society challenging the interests of an autochthonous minority language : Linguistic landscapes in the Sorbian “cap…
2019
This paper analyzes the LL in the city of Bautzen / Budyšin in Germany, a town which is frequently considered the “capital” of the Slavonic minority of the Sorbs. It focuses on the societal role of Sorbian in relation to practices and ideologies of mainstream German society. The vast majority of signs in Bautzen / Budyšin are in German only. Sorbian is essentially restricted to explicitly Sorbian institutions and to local and regional administration. Interviews conducted in shops and on the streets reveal that paternalistic attitudes common to perceptions of language policies and minority languages in Germany dominate; practices maintain the common monolingual habitus in German society. Mem…

Fandiskurse über das (Re-)Naming von Stadionnamen in Deutschland und Frankreich ein diskurslinguistischer Ansatz
2021
International audience; Aktualität und RelevanzDer neueste Versuch eine European Super-League einzuführen verdeutlichte einmal mehr, dass Fußballfans nur noch als bloße Konsumenten des Produkts Fußball betrachtet werden. Allerdings belegten die Reaktionen von Politikern (The Economist 2021) und den Fans selbst, dass im europäischen Fußball andere Gesetzmäßigkeiten gelten als von Investoren angenommen. Gewinnmaximierung unter Ausschluss des sportlichen Wettbewerbs und ohne Berücksichtigung gewachsener Strukturen, Traditionen und Fankulturen scheint (noch) nicht vermittelbar (Mustroph 2021). Dass dennoch immer neue Geldquellen erschlossen werden, zeigt das wachsende Phänomen des Namensponsori…
Ergonyms of Educational and Cultural spheres in two of Baltic States cities
2020
Daugavpils (Latvia) and Narva (Estonia) are cities in the Baltic States and signifi cant cultural and economic centres of their respective countries. These cities are characterized by a minority of nationals (19.8% of residents of Daugavpils are Latvian, 4% of residents of Narva are Estonian) and a similar linguistic situation: there is a dominance of Russian in the press, television and radio, but the state language prevails in the urban language signs.The aim of the study is to analyse the linguistic and extralinguistic means used for the creation of ergonyms of educational and cultural spheres. The main criteria for the analysis are: language choice, grammatical structures, sources of pr…
Rīgas reklāmas lingvistiskā ainava
2019
Ir grūti iedomāties ikdienas dzīvi bez kāda no reklāmas veidu sastapšanas; tās izpausmes var tikt analizētas, izmantojot gan reklāmas diskursa, gan lingvistiskās ainavas teoriju. Šī pētījuma mērķis bija petīt reklāmas Rīgā, salīdzinot tās starp tām, kuras ir sastopamas Rīgas Centrā un Vecpilsētā. Trīs valodas – latviešu, krievu un angļu – tika salīdzinātas, lai secinātu, kura no valodām tiek izmantota pārsvarā, un ko šie rezultāti varētu nozīmēt, kā arī, kuras grupas ir uzņēmumu mērķauditorija. Reklāmas tika pakļautas analīzei, kas saistīta ar reklāmas diskursa pazīmēm. Pētījuma mērķim tikai izmantota gadījuma analīzes metode, analizējot reklāmas diskursu, lingvistisko ainavu, likus un note…
University Exchange Students’ Practices of Learning Finnish: A Language Ecological Approach to Affordances in Linguistic Landscapes
2020
In linguistic landscape (LL) studies, various projects have demonstrated how language learners benefit from tasks that involve the documentation and interpretation of the LL. In this chapter, we investigate how Finnish as a second language learner exchange students turned the local LL into affordances during their time abroad in Finland. While language awareness and its relation to learning and teaching have been extensively discussed, it has often been regarded as a property of an individual consciousness: a faculty or a tendency of a particular person to perceive, notice and reflect upon the linguistic features present in their environments. In contrast, we argue for an approach that cont…

The Linguistic Landscape of the Valencian Community: A Comparative Analysis of Bilingual and Multilingual Signs in Three Different Areas
2019
During the last decades, the promotion of multilingualism has been key when designing linguistic policies in Europe. Previous research studies have focused on how languages are employed in fields such as education, media, and urban sites, among others. Bearing all this in mind, the aim of this paper is to analyse the linguistic landscapes of three municipalities located in a bilingual region in Spain, that of the Valencian Community. Thus, issues such as language contact, language dominance, and the languages used by a number of institutions on private and public signs were examined. As for the method, over 140 pictures of language signs were taken in order to examine language contact, lang…
