English Language and European Union: A Corpus-Based Study of EU Secondary Legislation
2023
To this date, English is one of the working languages of the EU and, most importantly, it is the ‘de facto’ lingua franca of the EU, as the source language of most European documents is mainly English (Crystal 2017). Despite Brexit, English remains the most studied language in Europe (Kużelewska 2020), not to mention the fact that it is the language of globalization. However, the UK’s exit from the EU prompts the question as to what will be the development of English in the post-Brexit landscape. In light of this, the present article aims at conducting a linguistic analysis of Euro-English in order to assess if and how such type of English differs from the Standard English (SE). If yes, is…
Joint Drafting of Legal Provisions in Multilingual Systems: an Analysis of the Swiss COVID-19 Regulations from a Legal Linguistic and Translational P…
2020
International audience; Legal language is known for its various technicalities and subtleties that often insulate legal translation from other specialized fields. In addition to the mere linguistic transfer of the text, along with the lexical, syntactical and pragmatic features specifically inherent in a Language for Legal Purpose (cf. Cao 2007), a comparison of two different legal systems becomes imperative in most cases (cf. Sandrini 1999). Even in light of the current pandemic that has forced governments to quickly lay down measures aimed at containing the spread of the virus, fundamental legal principles continue to apply.One might argue that a rapidly spreading virus can affect legisla…
Frame-Semantics meets Multilingual Legal Terminology. Theoretical Principles Based on a German-French Case Study
2021
International audience; Terminology aims primarily at elaborating standardized notions for the various complex concepts within specialized fields, intending to separate clearly defined technical terms from general lexical units that are used in every-day situations, with yet a wide range of vocabulary, that is specialized to some extent but cannot be delimited by terminological standards, emerging in between (ten Hacken 2010, 2015). For legal experts, for instance, the elaboration of precisely determined legal terms contributes to an overall specific understanding of legal concepts regardless of the possible ambiguities the same term may have in a general setting. At the same time, a variet…
Discourses of internationalization in Finnish higher education : a critical discourse analysis of legitimation strategies used in internationalizatio…
2011
Tutkielmassa tarkastellaan kansainvälistymisen diskursseja suomalaisessa korkeakoulutuksessa erilaisten korkeakoulutuksen kansainvälisyyttä käsittelevien dokumenttien kautta. Tutkimuksen analyysin kohteena ovat kolmen tahon (”Valtio”, ”Yliopistot” ja ”Opiskelijat”) dokumenteissa käytetyt legitimaatiostrategiat ja niiden käyttötarkoitukset. Työn tutkimuskysymykset ovat 1) mitä ja mihin tarkoituksiin edellä mainitut tahot käyttävät legitimaatiostrategioita sekä 2) miten edellä mainittujen tahojen kansainvälistymisdiskurssit eroavat toisistaan. Tutkimus valottaa aiempaa korkeakoulujen kansainvälistymiseen liittyvää tutkimusta sekä kansainvälistymisen määrittelyjä. Itse tutkimusaineistoa tarkas…
Cartographie sémantique du champ de l’exquis en allemand à partir des combinatoires sur larges corpus
2019
International audience; La mise à disposition de corpus de référence, associée aux travaux menés depuis au moins trois décennies sur le rôle de la combinatoire à haut degré de granularité dans l’analyse linguistique, permet de cartographier de manière relativement fine les espaces sémantiques occupés par un lexème et ceux avec qui il permute dans une relation tant synonymique qu’antonymique.C’est ce que nous proposons de faire pour le champ de l’exquis en allemand à partir des données disponibles à la fois dans le Deutsches Textarchiv couvrant la période 1600-1900 et dans le Deutsches ReferenzKorpus (DeReKo) pour la période contemporaine. Le croisement des contextes d’emploi du lexème exqui…
"Qui s'engage sur quoi ? L'épineuse question de l'évidentialité dans les textes de type "pronostic" en allemand à partir d'un corpus de prévisions fi…
2018
National audience; L’exposé vise à proposer une approche intégrative des modalités épistémiques et de l’évidentialité dans un type de texte spécialisé contraint : le discours de conjoncture économique avec un focus particulier sur sa dimension prévision/pronostic. Intégratif s’entend comme une tentative de saisie holistique du moule discursif sous-jacent indexant la mise en œuvre d’un lexique-grammaire particulier sur des contenus et connaissances spécialisés conduisant à la fossilisation de répertoires restreints.Le corpus analysé est double : il comprend d’une part un corpus de texte en allemand, langue originale, en l’espèce les 12 rapports mensuels de la Bundesbank de 2016, et d’autre p…

Young athletes’ significant experiences in sport : critical sociological reflections on athlete development
2017
AbstractThe aim of this article is to provide a sociological perspective on athlete development by using the theoretical framework of socialization and life course. Significant experiences are used as an interpretational tool to study young athletes’ perceptions of their socialization process. The research data, which were collected at a sports upper secondary school, consist of life historical interviews with 26 young athletes aged 14–17 years. Through content analysis, their significant experiences in sports were divided into four categories and then analyzed further in relation to the Habermasian dualistic reality of the lifeworld and the system. The results were the following. First, no…

This article focuses on interaction in Facebook (FB), as one of the best known and effective social media networks for mar…
Spatial interaction in Sámiland: Regulative and transitory chronotopes in the dynamic multilingual landscape of an indigenous Sámi village
2013
Using the example of the linguistic landscape of an indigenous Sámi village in northern Scandinavia, this article explores multilingualism in public signs located in public spaces of the village. Based on long-standing ethnographic and discourse analytical research on multilingualism in the spaces and practices in the peripheral locality of Sámiland, I will focus on the temporal and spatial dimensions of the signs. In this, Bakhtin’s concept of the chronotope is applied. Two chronotopes are identified and examined with regard to language change, mobility and multilingualism in public spaces. It is argued that linguistic landscapes often highlight spatial normativity and creativity, as well…
