Kollokative Variation im deutschen und österreichischen Zivilgesetzbuch
2020
Jak wiadomo, język niemiecki jest językiem pluricentrycznym z narodowymi odmianami/centrami, który w obrębie języka prawa różni się także ze względu na obowiązujące w różnych krajach niemieckojęzycznych różne systemy prawa. Austriacki kodeks cywilny (ABGB), uchwalony w roku 1811, jest prawie o cały wiek starszy od swego odpowiednika w RFN (BGB), który wszedł w życie w roku 1900. Ów dystans czasowy pociąga za sobą także różnice w zakresie języka obu kodeksów. Celem artykułu jest pokazanie cech wspólnych i różnic w obrębie kolokacji w niemieckim i austriackim kodeksie cywilnym, które dotąd prawie całkowicie pozostawały poza obszarem badań.
Linguistic diversity and assessment in multilingual schools
2018
En un entorno en el que la diversidad lingüística es natural, la metodología de evaluación afronta nuevos retos. La equidad en el proceso evaluativo aconseja la consideración de aspectos relacionados con las características psicométricas de las pruebas, el desarrollo de la competencia lingüística, o el contexto sociolingüístico, a través de modelos explicativos sobre las variables contextuales de naturaleza lingüística que inciden en el rendimiento. Utilizando datos poblacionales de centros educativos de segundo curso de enseñanza secundaria obligatoria que ofertan más de un modelo lingüístico en la Comunidad Autónoma del País Vasco (N=45), este trabajo analiza las respuestas de 2783 estudi…
Digital game-based training of early reading skills : overview of the GraphoGame method in a highly transparent orthography / Entrenamiento de habili…
2014
Learning to read in a language with a transparent orthography is generally quick and easy. To be able to read any words, learners need to know how to connect the smallest spoken language units, phonemes, into the written counterparts, graphemes. However, even learning the basic alphabetic principle has proven difficult for some learners. Here we focus on children who struggle to learn to read in Finnish that has a highly transparent orthography. In an attempt to provide efficient early preventative support for such learners, a technologyenhanced learning environment, GraphoGame, was developed. The GraphoGame method focuses on the specific problematic areas of each individual learner using a…
The GraphoGame Method: The Theoretical and Methodological Background of the Technology-Enhanced Learning Environment for Learning to Read
2014
This paper provides an overview of the GraphoGame method. Both theoretical and methodological aspects related to the method are presented. The method’s guiding principles are based on the prevailing theories and experimental research findings on learning and teaching basic reading skills in alphabetic languages, especially from the point of view of a struggling reader. Because the nature of the target language and its relation to its writing system play central roles in the GraphoGame method, this approach requires the method to be flexible in order to be valid for learners of different languages and orthographies. Thus, the aim of the developed technology is to provide an appropriate readi…
Women in the House of Habsburg in Papiers d’État du cardinal Granvelle by Charles Weiss
2018
Las ediciones que se han realizado de las correspondencias del siglo xvi han omitido frecuentemente las cartas escritas por mujeres. Es el caso de la gran obra realizada por Charles Weiss, Papiers d’État du cardinal de Granvelle (1841-1852). En los 9 volúmenes que componen este trabajo, la comisión dirigida por Weiss editó numerosas cartas manuscritas que se conservan en la Bibliothèque Municipale de Besançon y que pertenecían a Antonio Perrenot, cardenal de Granvela. En este estudio analizaremos la presencia de las cartas escritas por las mujeres de la casa de Austria en la edición de Weiss. Observaremos los criterios que se siguieron a la hora de seleccionar las cartas y los resultados de…
The Impacts of LBOs on the Performance of Acquired Firms: The French Case
2002
This paper investigates the financial characteristics and changes in performance of French companies involved in a leveraged buy-out. The empirical study covers a sample of 161 MBOs in France from 1988 to 1994. The acquired firms outperform their counterparts in the same sector of activity before and after the buy-out. However, unlike findings concerning LBOs in the USA and the UK, the performance of French firms falls after the operation is completed. This downturn in performance seems to be less detrimental to former subsidiaries of groups than to former family businesses.
Do Diacritical Marks Play a Role at the Early Stages of Word Recognition in Arabic?
2016
Published: 22 August 2016 A crucial question in the domain of visual word recognition is whether letter similarity plays a role in the early stages of visual word processing. Here we focused on Arabic because in this language there are various groups of letters that share the same basic shape and only differ in the number/location of diacritical points. We conducted a masked priming lexical decision experiment in which a target word was preceded by: (i) an identity prime; (ii) a prime in which the critical letter was replaced by a letter with the same shape that differed in the number of diacritics (e.g., ); or (iii) a prime in which the critical letter was replaced by a letter with differe…
Stance bundles in English-to-Polish Translation: a Corpus-Informed Study
2018
In this paper, we make an attempt to improve the textual fit of English-to-Polish translation of a peculiar type of multi-word units known in corpus linguistic literature as lexical bundles (Biber et al. 1999). Inspired by a study conducted by Grabar and Lefer (2015), we used the English-Polish parallel corpus Paralela (Pęzik 2016) and the National Corpus of Polish (NKJP) to extract and explore the use — in terms of frequency distributions — of the Polish equivalents of selected English lexical bundles expressing attitudinal and epistemic stance. More precisely, we used the NKJP corpus to check whether the Polish equivalents are typical of contemporary Polish as found in native texts. The r…
Zu den Ursachen lexikalischer Transferenz vor dem Hintergrund des deutsch-polnischen Sprachkontaktes in Oberschlesien
2021
Multilingualism and language contact were confirmed as historical phenomena already in ancient times. However, it did not find its way into scientific research until the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries. Since then, a comprehensive terminology has been developed in order to investigate and describe the effects of language contact. A common phenomenon in this field is lexical transfer, which bilingual people often use to bridge their lack of competence in the second language. However, the cause of the transfer of lexemes from one language to the other can also occur from the lesser to the better mastered language in the case of asymmetrical bilingualism, which therefor…
On the typology of motion events in Aymara
2021
This paper investigates the lexicalization pattern of motion events in Aymara, an Andean language spoken in Bolivia, Peru, and Chile. After providing a description of the morphosyntax of translational motion events, this study aims at a preliminary typological classification of Aymara within the framework of Talmy’s typology (Talmy 2000). With this purpose, three diagnostic tests have been used to determine the basic framing-typology of motion events. These tests consider i) the size of manner-of-motion lexicon and, more broadly, the degree of manner salience, ii) the complex-path constructions and the use of ‘plus-ground’ clauses, iii) the expression of boundary-crossing. The results of th…
