Abstract:

ABSTRACT: This work presents the nominal classification system of Paresi. Paresi is an Arawak language, spoken in Mato Grosso (Brazil). The data comes from field work in the Formoso and Rio Verde communities. In Paresi, similar to other Arawak languages, nouns can be inalienable or alienable. Inalienable nouns are bound nouns that can only occur with the possessor prefixes or the non-possessed suffix. There are two types of inalienable nouns: simple inalienable nouns and inalienable nouns with a classifying function. These nouns have their meaning metaphorically extended in order to categorize

Abstract:

Abstract This paper is a corpus-based study of certain key nouns used in promotional texts describing cheese in English. A corpus of online cheese descriptions was compiled to extract lexical information regarding the characterization of cheese. All in all, 37 key nouns were identified and classified into 7 semantic categories: appearance, part, colour, aroma, texture, taste and quality ranking. All the occurrences of each key noun were analysed to obtain an exhaustive inventory of the phraseological patterns in which they occur. The results show both objective characteristics (size, shape and

AbstractVia a corpus-based collocation analysis and a forced-choice questionnaire examination, this study investigates the use of two sets of near-synonymous nouns: authority/power/right and duty/obligation/responsibility. The corpus analysis reveals the prototypical meanings of the nouns in each set and the semantic and usage pattern differences among the synonymous nouns. Also, the corpus analysis and the results of the forced-choice study jointly show that the level of lexical salience and the language users' construal are two key factors in the use of synonymous nouns.

Abstract:

Early acquisition of nouns and verbs across languages is a key issue for a number of recent studies that question the reality of the ‘noun-bias’ and wonder about the reasons why it exists as they explore the role of cognitive vs. more language-specific input factors. Addressing this issue, the present study investigates how the noun and verb word classes develop in the free speech of a French child between the ages of 1;2 and 2;6, from the perspective of semantic and grammatical development. The analyses indicate that, in French acquisition, nouns clearly predominate over verbs until age 1;8 a

Dependent nouns are a distinctive feature of Korean grammar; however, as this concept does not exist in Chinese, it poses significant challenges for Chinese learners of Korean. This study focuses on the expression “dependent noun + 없다” by analyzing its usage in three Korean novels selected from the annual bestseller list on the Chinese platform Douban (豆瓣). A total of 529 sentences containing dependent nouns were identified, showcasing diverse forms of six key dependent nouns: ‘수’, ‘것’, ‘적’, ‘데’, ‘리’, and ‘바’.

This study focuses on French, English and Dutch adjectives that arise through debonding from N+N (and N+A) compounds or compound-like sequences (e.g. the adjectival uses of English ‘key’ and French clé “key”). Debonding is a type of degrammaticalization defined by Norde as “a composite change whereby a bound morpheme in a specific linguistic context becomes a free morpheme” (Norde, 2009: 186). We investigate for each of the three languages how the debonding process is impacted by three different factors: (1) the semantics of the noun subject to debonding, (2) the degree of prosodic and morphol

However, it has increasingly become a subject of comparative research, particularly in relation to other languages. This study examines Russian and Albanian, focusing on both the commonalities and differences in the formation and functioning of nouns across the three genders in these languages. A key aspect of the analysis is the morphosyntactic perspective on gender, particularly the agreement of adjectives and pronouns with noun gender in both languages. For instance: (доклад)

Cohesion is a critical aspect of text construction, ensuring logical flow and clarity in communication. Among the cohesive devices employed in discourse, pronominal references stand out as key tools for maintaining unity within a text. These references, primarily pronouns, act as substitutes for nouns or noun phrases, linking sentences and ideas while reducing redundancy. This study explores the role of pronominal references as cohesive devices, focusing on their types—anaphoric, cataphoric, and exophoric—and their function in creating coherence in English texts.

Abstract:

According to a recent hypothesis, executive functions should be particularly vulnerable to the effects of total sleep deprivation. Random generation is a task that taps executive functions. In three experiments we examined the effects of total sleep deprivation on random generation of keypresses, numbers, and nouns, in particular on the suppression of prepotent responses and the selection of next responses by way of applying a local-representativeness heuristic. With random key-presses suppression of prepotent responses did not suffer from lack of sleep, but it became poorer at a sufficiently

Our key proposal is that MaltE has innovated a rule that the definite article may be omitted when the uniqueness or identifiability of a referent is salient in context.

The gender of both humans and animals differentiates linguistically in all cultures, but this category may be expressed in different ways and to various degrees. In the Turkish language, neither nouns nor pronouns have a grammatical category of gender. The morphological method of denoting gender is used only for a restricted number of humans, mostly high-ranking, and in some personal names. The lexical method of denoting gender is used for most human and animal names. In this method, together with the lexemes with value having no indication of gender, a lexeme characterized by the semantics do

Five of Sweden’s major monolingual dictionaries are being examined with the aim of describing and comparing their derivatives, with special focus on deverbal nouns with the suffix -ande. The research combines morphology, lexicography and metalexicography, aiming at presenting and discussing some of the key areas of lemma inclusion and word formation principles in Swedish monolingual, contemporary dictionaries.

This paper attempts to describe the word formation process known as 'conversion' and a specific lexeme impact which is converted from noun to verb basically by American native speakers or news reports.

My purpose is to provide actual examples of impact taken from American newspapers and give reasons behind the functional shift of impact. As newspapers use the most standard language of time, this paper tries to show how the verb impact has established its transi

This paper seeks to shed light on the diachronic evolution of collocations by examining structures formed in Modern Spanish with dar “give” plus state nouns (e.g. dar miedo “frighten”, literally, “give fear”). Using the Corpus del español, I offer a quantitative and qualitative analysis of eighteen representative dar miedo-type collocations from the 1200s to the 1900s. The results show that although the basic properties of dar miedo-type structures have remained remarkably stable over the centuries, during the Middle Ages the verb hacer “make” was used here almost as often as dar — a competiti

In this paper, a novel method of key sentences extraction is proposed for automatic Chinese text summarization. Key-senses/sense-patterns discovery and key sentences extraction are its two main components. Since there is no Chinese lexical database like WordNet available to the authors, a compromise is to word-segment, POS-tag a target Chinese text and translate all the nouns/verbs into English for sense disambiguation using WordNet. The characteristic of the proposed method is that each sentence is represented by senses and the key senses in each sentence form a fuzzy transaction. Each entry
