Im Rahmen eines umfangreichen Projekts zu Übersetzungsmöglichkeiten der deutschen Modalverben ins Portugiesische – und nachdem wir schon den Fall sollen behandelt haben (siehe Hörster/Athayde/Carecho 2011) – stellen wir in dieser Studie einige wesentliche Ergebnisse unserer Untersuchung bezüglich des Modalverbs müssen dar. Ziel unserer Arbeit war nicht die semantische und pragmatische Beschreibung der einzelnen Modalverben, ein Thema, das immer wieder im Mittelpunkt der wissenschaftlichen Diskussion steht. Vielmehr war es unsere Absicht, einen Beitrag zur zweisprachigen Lexikografie, zur Fremdsprachendidaktik und vor allem zur Übersetzungsdidaktik zu leisten.
The research focuses on the narrative verbalization of mental reactions to the official announcement of 9 November 1989 stating that citizens of the GDR were henceforth permitted to travel to the West. This announcement differs from the type of unexpected information which is readily believable and comprehensible, to which we respond with interjections (change-of-state tokens: oh, ach, ach so) and certain formulations (das glaub ich, ich verstehe). Respondents from both East and West Berlin represented in the "Wende-Korpus" reacted from the cognitive perspective with mistrust and incomprehension, and from the emotional perspective with surprise, which was reflected both in syntactic structure and in the frequent use of metaphors. The report was more frequently interpreted as a joke than as a real event.
Analyse ausgewählter (sprachwissenschaftlicher) Nachschlagewerke und ihrer Benutzerfreundlichkeit
(2013)
This metalexicographic study compares four selected (linguistic) dictionaries. The results will potentially assist teachers in choosing a dictionary for students of German in the early phase of their studies. Selected lemmas are analyzed in a case study from the perspective of linguistic, academic and additional information; these lemmas are taken from the categories of phonetics and phonology, as these disciplines are generally covered first in a German degree programme. The selected dictionaries are also compared in terms of the range of phonetic and phonological concepts covered.
This study addresses new trends in translation studies and translation teaching, focusing on the possible use of database applications by translators. The article responds to the increasing market penetration of translation software designed to make the translation process – especially in professional and technical texts – more effective and efficient. The process includes the use of existing translations as a basis for new translations, consistent handling of terminology, simplification of the writing process, and the use of dictionary-type databases. After offering a basic theoretical discussion of CAT tools, the article focuses on their use by translators, especially in terms of how to teach user skills to translation students. The author draws on his experience of teaching the use of CAT tools (the application TRANSITNXT®) at the Department of German Studies, Faculty of Arts, University of Ostrava.
Das Zusammenspiel der Valenz- und Konstruktionsgrammatik auf dem Feld der syntaktischen Analysen
(2013)
Many linguistic discussions have focused on the question whether construction grammar represents an alternative descriptive grammatical model to valency grammar. The aim of this paper is to evaluate the pros and cons of valency grammar-based and construction grammar-based models using actual linguistic data, demonstrating that both models are mutually complementary and thus represent a suitable framework for syntactic and semantic analysis.
Bu çalışmada, Türkçedeki emir kipinin bir alt ulamı olan ve Almancada Jussiv terimiyle karşılanan 3. kişilere yönelik emir-istek1 biçimleri ve bunların Almancaya nasıl aktarılabileceği konulaştırılmaktadır. Bu amaçla Yaşar Kemal’in Kuşlar da Gittiromanındaki söz konusu emir-istek biçimleri aynı kitabın Almanca çevirisi Auch die Vögel sind fort’taki çevirileriyle karşılaştırılmaktadır. Karşılaştırmanın amacı çeviri eleştirisi değildir; yalnızca durum saptaması yapılmaktadır. Saptanan çeviri olanaklarının Alman dili eğitimi öğrencilerinde nasıl yansıma bulacağını görebilmek için bir de dar kapsamlı bir çeviri anketi uygulanmıştır. Türk dilinin bu dolaylı emir-istek için somut dilbilgisel bir ulam (Ali gelsin!) geliştirmişken, Almancada bire bir karşılaştırılabilir dilbilgisel bir eşdeğerlilik saptanmamıştır. Bu ulamın işlevi Almancada özellikle 3. kişi dolaylı anlatımla (Jeder kehre vor seiner eigenen Haustür!) ve yardımcı eylemlerle (Das Feuer soll von hier mitgenommen werden) karşılanmaktadır. Anlamsal bir ulam olan kipselliğin Türkçe ifadesindeki birçok örtüşmezlik, bu konunun Almanca öğretiminde daha çok dikkate alınması gerektiğini göstermiştir. Öğrencilerle yaptığımız çeviri uygulamasındaki diğer saptamamız, çevirilerdeki yetersizliğin sözlük kullanımındaki yetersizliğe dayandığıdır.
Pluralization strategies of monolingual German children aged 3-6, median 4;2 (N = 810), and adults aged 18-96, median 24;0 (N = 582), were compared on the basis of eight nonce nouns from the language test SETK 3-5. Differences between younger and older Germans resembled previously described differences between German and immigrant pre-schoolers for most aspects, e.g., use of fewer plural allomorphs (types), more errors in umlauting, and more avoidance strategies in the linguistically weaker groups. However, both German children and adults demonstrated the same universal frequency- and phonology-based pluralization patterns. Surprisingly, ungrammatical plural forms were equally frequent in both children’s and adults' answers.
The article characterizes the stylistic tendencies found in academic economic texts with a high degree of abstraction presenting economic theory from the end of the 18th century to the present day. At the centre of the author's attention are changes that are visible on the microstructural level of the text. In this connection, the author also describes quantitative methods that can be used in the diachronic analysis of academic texts.
In dem Beitrag wird am Beispiel von zwei Emotionsverben des Deutschen und Tschechischen exemplarisch der Frage nachgegangen, wie typische Kollokationen zum Emotionswortschatz für die Belange eines zweisprachigen (tschechischdeutschen und deutsch-tschechischen) (Lerner-)Wörterbuches zu ermitteln sind. Im Mittelpunkt des Interesses befinden sich Kollokationen des Strukturtyps Verb + Adverb, weil dieser Typ von der Forschung bis jetzt nur ungenügend beachtet wurde. In einem ersten Schritt wird die Beschreibungspraxis in neueren ein- und zweisprachigen Wörterbüchern untersucht. In einem zweiten Schritt werden die Ergebnisse der Kookkurrenzanalyse zu den ausgewählten Ausdrücken anhand des Deutschen Referenzkorpus des IDS Mannheim und des Tschechischen Nationalkorpus ausgewertet. Zum Schluss werden aus den Ergebnissen der Gegenüberstellung Beschreibungsvorschläge für die lexikographische Praxis gemacht.
Im Beitrag werden die Tendenzen im Bereich der Bildung von kulinarischen Bezeichnungen im Deutschen untersucht. Als empirische Basis gelten Benennungen für Weihnachtsgebäck, die in ihrem Komponentenbestand sowohl Weihnachtsbegriffe als auch Lexeme enthalten, die gewisse Assoziationen mit Weihnachten wecken oder kulturell geprägte Begriffe sind. Es wird auf die Struktur, die Art der Komponentenverbindung und die Motiviertheit der gesammelten Namen eingegangen.
