La gradualidad de los procesos de gramaticalización : sobre el uso idiomático del adjetivo "menudo" en español coloquial
2013
RESUMEN: En nuestro articulo nos centramos en el uso idiomatico del adjetivo espanol menudo(s)/menuda(s). Este uso es el resultado de un proceso de gramaticalizacion. El adjetivo menudo literalmente significa "pequeno", pero en su uso idiomatico funciona como un intensificador, que enfatiza prototipicamente la cantidad o la cualidad. Asi, una expresion como iMenudo frio hace! es paralela a la oracion Hace mucho frio, pero la construccion con menudo implica un enfasis mayor, una presencia mas destacada de la subjetividad del hablante. En nuestro articulo analizamos las caracteristicas sintacticas del uso idiomatico de menudo, e intentamos demostrar que menudo es una forma hibrida, que mantie…
A quantitative survey of N Prep N constructions in Romance languages and prepositional variability
2018
The distinction between syntagmatic compounds of the type N Prep N, such as Fr. jouet d’enfant, and nominal syntagms of the type N Prep N, such as the partially equivalent Fr. jouet pour enfants, remains unclear and vague. This is mainly because the lexical and syntactic status of syntagmatic compounds still is controversial. In some cases, as in jouet d’enfant and jouet pour enfants, partial equivalent syntagmatic compounds and nominal syntagms may coexist and underlie a specific variation and alternation. In other cases, such as Pt. bracelete de aço and bracelete em aço, two variants of a syntagmatic compound may alternate and coexist. The first part of this paper provides an overview of …
Literatura y cultura para una didáctica intercultural del español como lengua extranjera (ELE)
2016
This work evolves around a main purpose: to analyze the role of literature in the pedagogy of Spanish as a Foreign Language from an intercultural perspective. From this standpoint, we reflect about the importance of the term Spanish Literature to defend the different literatures implied in the syntagm; hence, we study how comparative literature becomes the main tool to understand linguistic, cultural and literary diversity. We consider that these two ideas should be in the pedagogical profile of the Spanish as a Foreign Language professor.
El estudio de los verbos sintagmáticos ayer y hoy
2017
Es fácilmente comprensible que en las tradiciones gramaticales de las grandes lenguas occidentales, como es el caso, entre otras muchas, de la italiana, las novedades se perfilen más en el ámbito de los enfoques metodológicos o de las perspectivas de análisis que en el poco probable descubrimiento, a estas alturas, de nuevas categorías lingüísticas o de elementos gramaticales hasta ahora incógnitos para los tratadistas. Y si no incógnitos, digamos que al menos desatendidos u obviados en la tratadística gramatical. Así ha ocurrido, en el caso del italiano, con los denominados verbos sintagmáticos, a los que solo recientemente se ha empezado a prestar atención en su calidad de categoría verba…

Contact between Italian and dialect in Sicily: the case of phrasal verb constructions
2017
The Phrasal Verb Constructions (PVCs) are an interesting example of the intertwining between Italian and dialects of Italy. These constructions are formed by a verbal base (especially of motion), and a locative or direction marking particle and exist in standard Italian as well as in regional varieties of Italian and dialects (i.e. Italian andare via 'go away', mettere giù 'put down'). Because of their progressive diffusion in different varieties of regional Italian, PVCs can be construed as an emerging feature increasingly accepted in regional standards. In this perspective, PVCs are an example of the contact between varieties that contribute to the restandardization of contemporary Italia…
Bestiality: Animal Cultures
2018
Multinaturalism shouldn’t be viewed solely as the paradigmatic existence of multiple natures in different cultures – or “ontologies” as Descola refers to them – but also and most importantly as the syntagmatic presence, and the resulting contrast, of various ontologies within the same culture. From a semiotic point of view, then, the so-called ontologies are considered to be effects of meaning derived from precise discursive dispositifs. Describing such dispositifs is the aim of this paper.
Syntagmatic and Paradigmatic Associations in Information Retrieval
2003
It is shown that unconscious associative processes taking place in the memory of a searcher during the formulation of a search query in information retrieval — such as the production of free word associations and the generation of synonyms — can be simulated using statistical models that analyze the distribution of words in large text corpora. The free word associations as produced by subjects on presentation of stimulus words can be predicted by applying first-order statistics to the frequencies of word co-occurrences as observed in texts. The generation of synonyms can also be conducted on co-occurrence data but requires second-order statistics. Both approaches are compared and validated …
The computation of word associations
2002
It is shown that basic language processes such as the production of free word associations and the generation of synonyms can be simulated using statistical models that analyze the distribution of words in large text corpora. According to the law of association by contiguity, the acquisition of word associations can be explained by Hebbian learning. The free word associations as produced by subjects on presentation of single stimulus words can thus be predicted by applying first-order statistics to the frequencies of word co-occurrences as observed in texts. The generation of synonyms can also be conducted on co-occurrence data but requires second-order statistics. The reason is that synony…
Number, identity, and sequence of the Drosophila head segments as revealed by neural elements and their deletion patterns in mutants.
1994
The development of the insect head tagma involves massive rearrangements and secondary fusions of segment anlagen during embryogenesis. Due to the lack of reliable morphological markers, the number, identity, and sequence of the head segments, particularly in the pregnathal region, are still a matter of ongoing debates. We examined the complex array of internal structures of the embryonic Drosophila melanogaster head such as the sensory structures and nerves of the peripheral and stomatogastric nervous systems, and we used embryonic head mutations causing a lack of overlapping segment anlagen to unravel the segmental identity and the sequence of the neural elements. Our results provide evid…
