Fluch- und Schimpfwortschätze sind aus kontrastiver Perspektive bisher kaum analysiert worden, sieht man von einer Vielzahl populärwissenschaftlicher Publikationen ab. Wissenschaftliche Publikationen beziehen sich meist auf eine Einzelsprache und greifen bei der Erklärung der Motive oft zu kurz, weil sie gerade benachbarte Kulturen und Sprachen (auch Dialektgebiete) zu wenig im Blick haben (Dundes 1983). Der vorliegende Beitrag leistet eine vergleichende Zusammenstellung der Fluch- und Schimpfwortschätze dreier mehr oder weniger benachbarter Sprachen, des (nördlichen) Niederländischen, des Deutschen und des Schwedischen, also zweier eng verwandter westgermanischer und einer nordgermanischen Sprache.
Prinzipien der Proprialitätsmarkierung : Familiennamenindikatoren in den nordeuropäischen Sprachen
(2004)
In dem grundlegenden Beitrag "Svenska släktnamn i gar, i dag - i morgon?" liefert Thorsten Andersson einen kompakten Überblick über ein bewegtes Jahrhundert schwedischer Familiennamengeschichte. Dabei handelt es sich zur Überraschung deutscher Leser/innen um das 20. Jahrhundert. In Deutschland wüsste man mit dem Titel ,,Deutsche Familiennamen gestern, heute -morgen?" nicht viel anzufangen, zumindest nicht mit der Frage nach dem Heute und dem Morgen: Die deutschen Familiennamen sind seit Jahrhunderten fixiert; von seltenen und wohlbegründeten Ausnahmen abgesehen kann niemand seinen Familiennamen wechseln geschweige denn frei kreieren. Und die Frage nach dem Morgen hat sich vermutlich noch nie jemand gestellt.
Die Flexionsmorphologie befasst sich mit der "Beugung" von Wörtern, d. h. mit der systematischen Kombination von (meist) Lexemen mit bestimmten sog. grammatischen Informationen (auch: Flexionskategorien). So wird die Wortart der Substantive im Deutschen mit den Informationen Kasus und vor allem Numerus (Singular und Plural) versehen.
Gli Autori presentano i risultati preliminari dello studio interdisciplinare (geostratigrafia e paleopedologia; palinologia; malaccfaune; faune mammologiche; industrie; datazioni raiometriche) dei depositi würmiani, fortemente antropizzati, del Riparo Tagliente in Valpantena (Monti Lessini). I depositi più antichi, riferibili al I Pleniglaciale wiirmiano e alla parte iniziale del Würm medio, contengono industrie del Paleolitico Medio e della fase arcaica del Paleolitico Superiore (Aurignaziano a dufours). Una fase erosiva, la deposizione di ghiale fluviali all'esterno del riparo e fenomeni di geliflusso sono riconducibili al II Pleniglaciale würmiano. I depositi più recenti, riferibili al Tardiglaciale (dal Dryas antico all'oscillazione di Alleriöd), hanno dato industrie dell'Epigravettiano italico finale e altri resti di occupazione antropica del riparo (strutture di abitato, oggetti ornamentali, una sepoltura, opere d'arte). Le sequenze di industrie musteriane cd epigravcttianc del Riparo Tngliente costituiscono attualmente il punto di riferimento fondamentale per lo studio dei complessi del Paleolitico Medio e della fine del Paleolitico Superiore nell'Italia nordorientale.
A population of wild Rattus rattus living in the roofs of the laboratory buildings was studied by supplying food every evening and watching the behaviour of the animals at the feeding place. Some observations were also made on caged animals. The rats were predominantly of the black rattus variety but white-bellied greys appeared now and then. In breeding tests the grey colour behaved as though determined by a single recessive gene. The study covered two periods of approximately 9 months each, separated by an interval of 3 months during which a reduced quantity of food was provided and the rat population underwent a major decline. During the two periods of richer feeding the population first increased and then stabilized at a level where the animals remained in good condition and there was no starvation. In the first 9-month period, stabilization was achieved by emigration of young adults who colonized neighbouring buildings. Towards the end of the second period, stabilization was achieved by limitation of breeding. The rats accepted a wide variety of foods, including meat, and a number of instances of predation were seen. Small vertebrates as well as insects were killed and eaten. Small pieces of food were usually eaten in situ but large bits were taken up to the nests in the roof. Such differential treatment in relation to size may be a factor of some importance in the evolution of hoarding. The rats visiting the feeding place formed a unit with a definite social structure. A single dominant male and never more than one, was always present and in certain circumstances a linear male hierarchy was formed. There were usually two or three mutually tolerant top ranking females who were subordinate to the top male but dominant to all other members of the group. Within the group attacks were directed downwards in the social scale. An attacked subordinate either fled or appeased and serious fights therefore did not develop. The most essential component of the appease. ment appeared to be a mouth to mouth contact which may be derived from the infantile pattern of 'mouth suckling'. Appeasement permitted superior rats to maintain their status without the necessity of carrying attacks on subordinates to the point where actual hurt was inflicted. A group territory round the feeding place was defended against interlopers. Both sexes took part in chasing out intruders but since males showed inhibition in attacking females, the exclusion of strange females was due principally to the activities of the home females. The point at which pursuit of an intruder stopped was regarded as the territorial boundary. This was also the limit beyond which a group member would not allow himself to be chased but it was not a prison wall. When agonistic tendencies were not aroused the animals no longer always I turned back at the boundary and foraging beyond its limits allowed them to become familiar with an area larger than the territory. Although intruders were normally driven out, it was occasionally possible for a particularly determined animal of either sex to force its way in and ultimately become a member of the group. The patterns of behaviour seen are described, particularly those concerned with hostile encounters and with mating. Scent marking with urine drip trails was not seen but adults of both sexes marked by rubbing the cheeks and ventral surface on branches. The circumstances in which tooth gnashing was heard suggest that this behaviour is not a form of threat but a response to unfamiliar auditory or visual stimuli. There was some evidence that it functioned as an alarm signal within the group. Pilo-erection and a gait or posture with the hind legs much extended ('stegosauring') are considered to function as threats. Pilo-erection occurred in situations where there was little to suggest conflict and is considered to represent a form of threat which has undergone emancipation. Various forms of displacement and ambivalent behaviour were seen. Rapid vibration of the tail occurred in thwarting situations, either during mating or when a defeated opponent suddenly vanished. There was no evidence that it acted as a signal. The common form of amicable behaviour was social grooming. Another amicable action was sitting together with the bodies in contact. Animals reared in cages remained shy and wary and even hand reared young developed the usual alarm responses to movement and noises. Females had their first litters at ages of 3 to 5 months. For first litters gestation periods were 21 to 22 days but in females that were simultaneously lactating they ranged from 23 to 29 days. Eight was the commonest litter number and ten the highest recorded. At birth the tail is very much shorter than the body but has outstripped it by the time the youngster emerges from the nest. This was found to be the result of a period of extremely rapid tail growth immediately preceding emergence. In Rattus norvegicus the peak in tail growth rate was found to be later and less striking. The difference is interpreted as related to the importance of the tail in climbing in the more arboreal R. rattus. During the second week of life an edge response (retreat from a declivity) and a clinging response made their appearance: these have the function of preventing accidental falls from a nest situated above ground level. Mouth suckling was seen only during a period of a few days towards the end of lactation. Play developed within a few days of emergence from the nest: locomotor and fighting play were the common types. Older animals occasionally joined in play with the young. In problem solving tests, first solutions were not insightful but once a solution had been found, the successful technique was at once adopted and subsequently perfected. There was no evidence of learning by imitation but the rats did learn from each other's behaviour that food could be obtained at a certain location and thus the solution of a problem by one rat accelerated its independent solution by others. The reasons for the differences between the behaviour of the free living population and the caged animals studied by other authors are discussed.
Ergebnis: Wollte man versuchen, nach der Anzahl der zusammengestellten althochdeutschen Belege die frühmittelalterliche Ernährung zu rekonstruieren, so ergäbe sich folgendes Bild: Mit 1070 bzw. 711 Nachweisen müssen Gemüse und Obst einen enonnen Anteil an der Ernährung eingenommen haben. Gemeinsam mit Getreide bildeten sie den Grundstock der Ernährung: Getreide und Getreideprodukte sind zusammen 889-mal belegt: Mit 237 zu 134 Nennungen stellen Brotgetreide dabei 63,9%, während Grützgetreide nur einen Anteil von 36,1 % erreichen. Dieses Verhältnis entspricht genaujenem zwischen den Belegstellen für Brot (63,1%) und für breiartige Speisen (36,9%). Die insgesamt 1446 Belege für Fleischkonsum setzen sich zusammen aus dem Fleisch von Haustieren (601-mal), Wildtieren (352-mal), Haus und Wildgeflügel (376-mal) sowie 117-mal Wurst und Schinken. Fisch ist 518-mal belegt. Milchprodukte (I07-mal), Hülsenfrüchte (etwa 193-mal) und Nüsse (152-mal) sowie pflanzliche und tierische Fette (135- bzw. 147-mal) spielten eine eher untergeordnete Rolle. Von den insgesamt 5402 Nachweisen für Nahrungsmittel stellen also die überwiegend Kohlenhydrate enthaltenden Lebensmittel (Gemüse, Obst, Getreideprodukte, Hülsenfrüchte) 53 %, die überwiegend Eiweiß enthaltenden Lebensmittel (Fleisch, Fisch, Milchprodukte, Eier) 39%, und die überwiegend Fett enthaltenden Lebensmittel (pflanzliche und tierische Öle und Fette, Nüsse) 8%.
The impact of naval sonar on beaked whales is of increasing concern. In recent years the presence of gas and fat embolism consistent with decompression sickness (DCS) has been reported through postmortem analyses on beaked whales that stranded in connection with naval sonar exercises. In the present study, we use basic principles of diving physiology to model nitrogen tension and bubble growth in several tissue compartments during normal div ng behavior and for several hypothetical dive profiles to assess the risk of DCS. Assuming that normal diving does not cause nitrogen tensions in excess of those shown to be safe for odontocetes, the modeling indicates that repetitive shallow dives, perhaps as a consequence of an extended avoidance reaction to sonar sound, can indeed pose a risk for DCS and that this risk should increase with the duration of the response. If the model is correct, then limiting the duration of sonar exposure to minimize the duration of any avoidance reaction therefore has the potential to reduce the risk of DCS.
