Kategoria BISAC: Language Arts & Disciplines >> Linguistics - Morphology

Gegenstand des Buches ist die sprachliche Gestaltung der Temporalitat, Aspektualitat und Modalitat in den romanischen Sprachen. In die Betrachtung dieser drei Kategorien werden neben dem Tempus, Aspekt und Modus weitere Ausdrucksmittel, wie zum Beispiel Verbalperiphrasen, Adverbien und lexikalische Bedeutungen von Verben, einbezogen. Die Beschreibung erfolgt auf der Grundlage einer funktionalen Sicht der Grammatik und das Zusammenwirken verschiedener Strukturebenen der Sprache bei der Markierung temporaler, aspektueller und modaler Verhaltnisse wird betrachtet. Neuere Forschungsansatze im...

Over the past few decades, the book series Linguistische Arbeiten Linguistic Studies], comprising over 500 volumes, has made a significant contribution to the development of linguistic theory both in Germany and internationally. The series will continue to deliver new impulses for research and maintain the central insight of linguistics that progress can only be made in acquiring new knowledge about human languages both synchronically and diachronically by closely combining empirical and theoretical analyses. To this end, we invite submission of high-quality linguistic studies...

This collection of papers opens a debate on the relationship between processes of grammaticalisation and systems of word-classes. It centers on the question of how diachronic grammaticalization processes and synchronic hierarchies of grammaticality relate to the lexico-grammatical categorization of the word inventory in natural languages (= systems of word-classes). Whereas systems of word-classes are normally only seen as an external system of reference for processes of grammaticalization, the papers in this volume inquire into the grammaticalization of the word-classes themselves (in...

Regimes of Derivation in Syntax and Morphology presents a theory of the architecture of the human linguistic system that differs from all current theories on four key points. First, the theory rests on a modular separation of word syntax from phrasal syntax, where word syntax corresponds roughly to what has been called derivational morphology. Second, morphosyntax (corresponding to what is traditionally called "inflectional morphology") is the immediate spellout of the syntactic merge operation, and so there is no separate morphosyntactic component. There is no LF (logical form) derived;...

Die Unterscheidung zwischen Kern und Peripherie in Sprache und Grammatik wird in der Linguistik kontrovers diskutiert. Die Beitrage in diesem Sammelband befassen sich aus unterschiedlichen theoretischen Perspektiven mit der grammatiktheoretischen Relevanz dieser Unterscheidung als auch mit empirischen Phanomenen an Randbereichen der Grammatik, die besondere Herausforderungen an die Kern/Peripherie-Unterscheidung stellen.

The book series Beihefte zur Zeitschrift fur romanische Philologie, founded by Gustav Grober in 1905, is among the most renowned publications in Romance Studies. It covers the entire field of Romance linguistics, including the national languages as well as the lesser studied Romance languages.

The editors welcome submissions of high-quality monographs and collected volumes on all areas of linguistic research, on medieval literature and on textual criticism. The publication languages of the series are French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Romanian as well as German and...

Contrary to earlier approaches, this study suggests that Modern Greek (MG) is a language that exhibits reduplication, in the form of Total Reduplication (TR). The analysis addresses the morphosyntactic, phonological, semantic and pragmatic aspects of the types of TR in MG, and the constraints and/or preferences of speakers concerning their use. The typology of TR focuses on four cross-linguistically common meanings/functions, identified as the intensive, the contrastive, the distributive and the iterative. Part of the analysis of these functional types is based on data that come from two...

This book provides a study of the diachronic development of compounds with a verbal first constituent in Ancient Greek. Based on an unprecedentedly comprehensive corpus of such compounds, it offers detailed treatments of their origins, structure and place within the Greek compound system, as well as in-depth and up-to-date introductions to Greek compounds and to linguistic research on compounding.

Die Beitrage des Bandes diskutieren das Thema Deutsch als Zweitsprache - ein Thema, das fachdidaktisch wie bildungspolitisch oft bemuht wird. Dennoch bleiben Fragen zum Erwerb grammatischer Strukturen und zu Besonderheiten und Unterschieden des Zweitspracherwerbs im Vergleich zum Erstspracherwerb weiterhin offen. Aktuelle Befunde werden in diesem Band auf ihre Relevanz fur einen Grammatikunterricht in multilingualen Zusammenhangen uberpruft.
