The relations between Turkey and Germany have a long history that involves collaboration and partnership in many areas. After 1960s, this relationship gained a new dimension as hundreds of thousands of Turkish workers immigrated to Germany. This paper presents a brief history of the relations between the two countries, and the cultural and language-related problems experienced by Turkish people in Germany. More specifically, it focuses on the background and current state of the Turkish Language and Culture course taught to the Turkish youth in German schools. Problems regarding the implementation of this course are discussed with reference to official statistics. Finally, suggestions are offered to address the challenges faced to improve the Turkish Language and Culture course so that Turkish children can successfully learn their origin-language, and eventually achieve competence in both Turkish and German in their academic studies.
School is not the only institution that educates children and provides them with specialised information. Television also contributes substantially to education. The article deals with the question of how the authors of educational programmes for children handled the difficult task of educating children while capturing their attention at the same time. This issue is examined using the example of selected German and Czech television programmes for children with the topic of biology, and attention is paid especially to the choice of language when working with specialised terms and to the specific procedures of defining or explaining them. Also monitored is whether or not the strategy of introducing new specialised terms in the analysed children programmes is different in terms of quality from the strategies applied in popular science programmes for adults with comparable topics.
The aim of this contrastive study is to examine the source domain "agriculture" as an image donor for a large number of phraseological units in German and Albanian and to address the question which agricultural terms belong to the phraseological inventory in both languages and which metaphorical target domains are linguistically structured by them. This language combination consists of two Indo-European languages whose peoples have not been in direct contact with each other in the course of history. Identifying differences and similarities in this regard would be of great interest - especially the latter, because phraseological universals could be discovered in the similarities between these not very closely related languages and peoples.
Die Sprache ist ein hervorragendes Werk, das durch Interaktion entsteht und mit dem wir eine Wirklichkeit erzeugen, die eine sowohl konstruierende als auch destruierende Rolle spielen kann. Manche Linguisten vergleichen den Sprachgebrauch mit dem Sprachspiel. Mit seiner Hervorhebung der Sprachverwendung und seinem einprägsamen und geschliffenen Ausspruch 'Die Bedeutung eines Wortes ist sein Gebrauch in der Sprache' gilt Wittgenstein als Vorgänger der linguistischen Pragmatik. Seine Äußerungen inspirierten die Theoretiker der Sprechakttheorie. Nach Austin verläuft der Sprachgebrauch in Sprechakten, wobei jeder Akt aus den Teilakten Lokution, Illokution und Perlokution entsteht und auch defizitäre Sprechakte möglich sind. Aus der Tatsache, dass der Anzahl der Kontexte keine Grenzlinie zu ziehen ist, dass es also unendlich viele Kontexte und dementsprechend so viele Funktionen gibt, können wir ebenfalls auf eine unendliche Zahl von expliziten oder impliziten Sprechakten schließen. Die Sprechakte haben einen modalen Charakter, der a) vom Blickpunkt des Sprechers und des Hörers, b) vom Kontext, in dem sich die Sprechakte abspielen, c) von der Gesellschaft als der Trägerin einer Kultur und d) von den Naturumständen, unter denen die Interaktanten leben, abhängt. Die Sprechakte gelingen nur dann, wenn die Interaktanten kooperationsbereit sind. Das allein genügt aber nicht; auch das Höflichkeitsprinzip ist sehr konstitutiv. In dieser Arbeit werden besondere türkische Sprechakte analysiert, die zeigen, dass die Äußerungstypen nicht immer mit den Illokutionen übereinstimmen. Das kann vom Kontext und auch von suprasegmentalen Merkmalen des jeweiligen Sprechaktes abhängen.

People's sex life is very often, if not always, taboo in everyday life. The theming of this area of life is made possible by various linguistic means that allow one to speak about this content. Phraseological units also serve this purpose. The starting point of this article is the definition of phrasemes according to Burger (2015:11): "Firstly, they [phraseologisms] consist of more than one word; secondly, the words are not put together for this one occasion, but are combinations of words that we, as German speakers, know exactly in this combination (possibly with variants), similar to how we know German words as individual items". In addition, it is noteworthy that thanks to the characteristic of idiomaticity (cf. Fleischer 1982:30), this taboo is particularly reinforced. At the center of our analysis are phrasemes related to sex life. The research material was taken from German and Polish dictionaries. The purpose of the presentation is to create a typology of thematic areas which are characterized with the help of phrasemes relating to sex life in German and Polish. The article is based on the following definition of a taboo: "an unwritten law that forbids doing certain things based on certain beliefs within a society" (Duden 2015:1735).
Als einer der wesentlichen und natürlichen Bestandteile der sprachlichen Kompetenz weisen Kollokationen sowohl in alltäglichen als auch in formellen Kommunikationssituationen einen elementaren Stellenwert auf. Für die Fremdsprachenlerner machen diese vorgeformten Mehrworteinheiten Produktionsschwierigkeiten aus, da sie in den meisten Fällen zahlreiche strukturelle und semantische Unterschiede zwischen Mutter- und zu lernender Fremdsprache aufweisen. Bei der Sprachproduktion neigen die Lerner häufig dazu, die Kollokationen in ihrer Muttersprache wörtlich in die Zielsprache zu übertragen, was vor allem im Falle von Divergenzen zu eventuellen Interferenzfehlern führen kann. Aus diesem Grund verdient die kontrastive Erfassung von Kollokationen in fremdsprachendidaktischer Diskussion ein besonderes Interesse. Ausgehend von diesen Diskussionen bezweckt die vorliegende Untersuchung primär, die somatischen Kollokationen im Deutschen und Türkischen im Rahmen der kontrastiven Phraseologie unter die Lupe zu nehmen und im Lichte dieser interlingualen Betrachtung die Äquivalenzbeziehungen zwischen beiden Sprachen in diesem lexikalischen Bereich darzulegen. Von den bei der Analyse beschriebenen Erkenntnissen sollen einige didaktische Folgerungen für türkische Deutschlerner abgeleitet werden.
Hitaplar gerek formal konuşmada gerekse informal dilde belirleyici bir özelliğe sahiptir. Hitaplar konuşmaya, yazmaya veya herhangi bir yazılı belgeye başlarken kullanılan ve göndericinin alıcıya yönelik bakış açısını belirten dilsel ifadelerdir. Hitap edilen kişi veya gruplar muhatap olarak adlandırılır. Selamlama ve hitap araştırmalarında, bir muhataba hitap ederken kullanılan dilsel araçlara hitap biçimleri denir. Dilsel hitap biçimleri, ad ve zamir kategorisine ayrılabilir. Ad kategorisindeki hitap türleri isimlerin, mesleki ve diğer unvanların kullanımını içerir. Hitapların zamir biçimleri kendilerini şahıs zamirlerinde gösterir. Zamirlerin bir alt sınıfı olarak, şahıs zamirleri gönderene veya kişilere atıfta bulunur. Dilsel iletişim hitaplar ile başlar. Herhangi bir konu hakkında birisiyle birdenbire konuşmaya başlamamak toplumsal uzlaşımın bir parçasıdır. Bu bağlamda hitaplar yaşamın her anında yer bulmaktadır. Bu makalede, Türk ve Alman dijital ortamlarda kadınların hitap ifadelerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. İnternet günümüzde toplumun h er alanındaki insanların zorunlu bir alışkanlığı haline gelmiştir. Toplumdaki bireyler etkileşimlerini büyük oranda internet aracılığı ile gerçekleştirmekte, sosyal medyayı takip ederek merak ettikleri konular hakkında fikir sahibi olabilmektedirler. Toplumda, arasında kadınların da önemli bir yere sahip olduğu büyük bir kesim günün her anında sosyal medya üzerinden iletişim kurmakta, kurdukları her tür iletişimde farklı hitap türleri sergilemektedir. Bu çalışma, kullandıkları hitaplar açısından kadınların dilsel davranışlarını içermektedir. Bilindiği gibi kadınlar ve erkekler birçok açıdan ayrıdırlar. Kadın ve erkekler arasındaki bu farklılıklar kendine dijital ortamda da yer bulmaktadır. Makalenin birinci bölümünü oluşturan kuramsal kısımda, hitapların tanımından yola çıkılarak konunun ayrıntıları ortaya konacaktır. Çalışmanın uygulama bölümünde, Türkçe ve Almancadaki sosyal medya metinleri her iki dilde hitaplar açısından karşılaştırılarak incelenecektir. Elde edilen veriler kadınların iki dildeki hitap kullanımı bağlamında değerlendirilecektir. Bu değerlendirme sonucunda Türkçe ve Almancada kadın dilinin hitaplar açısından nasıl bir kullanım alanının olduğu görülecek, her iki dilde ne tür farklılıklar ve benzerliklerin gözlemlenebildiği sonucuna ulaşılacaktır. Çalışmada Türkçe ve Almanca hitaplar karşılaştırılacağından inceleme genel olarak kontrastif söylem analizi ve deskriptif-analitik yöntemler doğrultusunda karma bir yöntem ile yürütülecektir.
This dissertation investigates several aspects of nominal modification in Ògè, an understudied language of Benue-congo spoken in Àkókó Northwest in Nigeria. The study focuses on two areas of nominal modification namely, Nominal Attributive Modifiers (NAMs) and the strategies of number marking.
The discussion and analysis of NAMs in the language reveal that Ògè belongs to the group of languages which lacks adjectives as a lexical category. NAMs are nominal and they
are derived from an existing lexical category namely, verbs. Predicative modifiers and NAMs have forms that are similar to the long and short forms (LF & SF) of adjectives in languages in which adjectives form an open class, for example, Russian, SerBoCroatian (BCS) and German.
Based on the Minimalist program, the dissertation reveals that unlike Russian, BCS, and German in which the discrepancies between the two forms of adjectives are related to definiteness (as in the case of BCS) and Agree, the discrepancies in the two forms of modifiers in Ògè are related to the fact that Ògè lacks adjectives and resorts into the nominalization of stative verbs in order to derive attributive forms. Using the analyses of adjuncts according to Truswell (2004) and Zeijlstra (2020), the dissertation proposes that NAMs are adjuncts in a modification structure while they are heads in possessive and genitive constructions. In addition, I propose that NAMs are attributive-only modifiers which modify the NP rather than
the DP.
The dissertation also investigates the strategies of number marking in Ògè. Unlike languages in which number marking is obligatory in the nominal domain (Hebrew, German, English),
nouns in Ògè are not always marked for number. This means that nouns in Ògè have general number. The general number nature of nouns in Ògè is like that of the nouns in modifying plural marking languages namely, Halkomelem, Korean, Yucatec Maya and Yorùbá. However, I argue that unlike the modifying plural marking languages in which the Number Phrase (NumP) is not projected, NumP is projected in the nominal spine of Ògè, claiming that NumP bears an
interpretable number feature which values the uninterpretable number feature in D. Argument in support of this comes from the interpretation of the noun in the presence of òtúro (an element which translates to the plural definite interpretation of the noun). I analyze òtúro as a plural determiner which occupies the D-head in the syntax of Ògè. The dissertation argues following Alexiadou (2019) that the locus of the occurrence of the marker of plurality in the nominal spine does not depend on its interpretation as a plural morpheme, rather, the locus of the occurrence of the element that is sensitive to the plural interpretation of the noun depends on other parameters which are definiteness, specificity and animacy.
There are two main approaches to change of state verbs. One adopts an approach in terms of a total change (becomeP, for base predicate P), i.e., a change from not being in the extension of the base predicate to being in it. The other adopts an approach in terms of a relative change (becomemore P, for base predicate P), i.e., a change for a theme in which it increases in the extent to which it holds the property denoted by the base predicate. Different languages have been analyzed using one or the other approach. I argue that both proposals are actually appropriate for analyzing related but not (completely) overlapping phenomena in the domain of derived change of state verbs in the very same language. This proposal is based on the discussion of change of state verbs in Southern Aymara that are derived with the suffixes -pta and -ra. I show that verbs with -pta convey the meaning of total change and that verbs with -ra convey the meaning of relative change. I further discuss how expressions with -pta and -ra interact: expressions with -ra implicate that the theme does not change from not being in the extension of the base to being in it. I propose an account in terms of scalar implicatures in which -pta and -ra are lexical alternatives, thus extending the domain of linguistic phenomena for which the computation of scalar implicatures is relevant.
