Typologia odstępstw od normy ogólnopolskiej w zakresie wymagania przypadka w tekstach „Gazety Polskiej Bukowiny” wydawanej w Ukrainie

Author(s): Ałła Krawczuk / Language(s): Polish Issue: 09/2024

The aim of the article is to propose a typology of deviations from the general Polish norm in the field of syntactic constructions requiring specific cases in written Polish used in Ukraine. The study is based on texts from Gazeta Polska Bukowiny, a Polish-language periodical published in Ukraine since 2007. The analysis categorizes deviations according to three independent criteria: 1) structure type, 2) origin of the deviation, and 3) rank of deviation. The results of the study are particularly relevant for glottodidactics, specifically for teaching Polish to Ukrainians. The research expands on earlier studies concerning government relations in Polish as used in Ukraine and among Ukrainians, addressing the need for further examination of syntactic norms based on modern corpus analysis.

Author(s): Monika Kresa / Language(s): Polish Issue: 09/2024

The article examines the anthroponymy of the Jewish community in Falenica (a district of present-day Warsaw), focusing on names recorded in the death register of the Falenica Synagogue District between 1920 and 1934. The study investigates the cultural and linguistic origins of these names, analyzing their biblical, Yiddish, post-biblical, and borrowed origins. The research highlights patterns of naming traditions among Falenica Jews, including the prevalence of biblical names and the influence of multilingual and multicultural environments. The findings contribute to the broader study of Polish-Jewish linguistic and cultural interactions in the early 20th century.

O różnicach i podobieństwach w zakresie użycia i znaczenia przymiotników niemoralny i nieetyczny (na przykładzie połączeń z wybranymi rzeczownikami)

Author(s): Karolina Lisczyk / Language(s): Polish Issue: 09/2024

The article examines the usage and meaning of the Polish adjectives niemoralny ("immoral") and nieetyczny ("unethical") based on their collocations with selected nouns. The study investigates whether these words are truly synonymous or whether their usage follows specific tendencies. Using corpus data from MoncoPL, the author analyzes contexts in which these adjectives appear and identifies differences in their applications. The findings suggest that while both adjectives are sometimes used interchangeably, niemoralny is more frequently associated with violations of moral and social norms, while nieetyczny tends to be linked to professional ethics and misconduct in institutional settings. The study also highlights cases where the two adjectives co-occur in the same sentence, suggesting nuanced distinctions between them.

Historycznie o czasowniku zdechnąć – zdychać (na marginesie wypowiedzi medialnej J. Bralczyka)

Author(s): Agnieszka Piela / Language(s): Polish Issue: 09/2024

The public discussion on how to refer to animal death has been going on for quite some time now. However, it has been revived following a media comment made by Jerzy Bralczyk, a renowned linguist. In a television programme, he expressed his preference for traditional linguistic forms that refer to animals, e.g., przygarnąć (‘to take in’) instead of adoptować (‘to adopt’), and zdechnąć – zdychać (‘to die – of an animal’) instead of umrzeć – umierać (‘to die – of a human’). The article aims to draw attention to the historical evolution of the verb in question in the Polish language against philosophical approaches to animals and the contemporary cultural changes in how they are treated.

Чому «Сірі бджоли» – це квінтесенція українського кіно?

Author(s): Yurii Samusenko / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 07/2024

The article explores the significance of the film "Grey Bees," directed by Dmytro Moiseiev, which won the drama category at the XV Odesa International Film Festival. Based on the first part of Andriy Kurkov's novel, the film portrays the life of villagers in the "grey zone" of combat, focusing on the characters Serhii and Pashka. Living in a frontline area, Serhii tends to his bees and distributes honey to his neighbors, while grappling with personal fears and uncertainties. The narrative takes a turn with the appearance of a Ukrainian soldier's body, leading Serhii to encounter a living soldier who warns of an imminent Russian invasion. Despite the warnings, Serhii remains steadfastly attached to his land and home. The film emphasizes the rootedness of its characters and the metaphor of bees collecting honey, illustrating the chaotic coexistence of the villagers. "Grey Bees" resonates as a quintessential piece of Ukrainian cinema, reflecting themes of isolation, resilience, and the human condition amid conflict.

Terminologia literaturoznawcza na zajęciach ze studentami polonistyki na Przykarpackim Uniwersytecie Narodowym im. Wasyla Stefanyka

Author(s): Iryna Spatar / Language(s): Polish Issue: 10/2024

This article provides a comparative analysis of Ukrainian and Polish literary terms based on their definitions in lexicographical sources. The author points out that the similarity of the two languages (Ukrainian and Polish) plays an ambivalent role when using literary terminology, both facilitating and complicating the process. Difficulties arise when students are confronted with interlingual homonymy, i.e., identical or similar terms that have different meanings in the two respective national languages and denote concepts that are not identical. In order to find the appropriate equivalents, a comparison of the most frequently used literary terms that cause difficulties and misunderstandings among Ukrainian students of Polish studies was made.

Ein österreichischer Bericht über das Banat aus dem Jahr 1780

Author(s): Ileana-Maria Ratcu / Language(s): German Issue: 20/2023

The article presents an archival document, which is actually a report by the Austrian authorities from the second half of the 18th century on conditions in the Banat and the Banat military border. Both the content and the linguistic features of the report are examined. The demographic and economic situation of the Banat at that time forms the background for a further analysis: the image of the Other, in this case – the image of the Wallachian population. From a linguistic point of view, the text corresponds to the specific characteristics of 18th century administrative language: a certain randomness in spelling, extended sentence structures, Latin expressions, specific terminology. Another aim of the article is to show how much information archive documents can contain and how they can be used.

LE VERBE FRANÇAIS ET SA SPÉCIFICITÉ RELIGIEUSE DANS LE DISCOURS CHRÉTIEN-ORTHODOXE

Author(s): Felicia DUMAS / Language(s): French Issue: 36/2024

This article analyses the religious specificity, of a Christian-Orthodox nature, of certain French verbs when they are used in discourse contexts of this type, Christian-Orthodox. This specificity is expressed discursively by specialised meanings, actualised precisely in these contexts. In fact, in French, there are few verbs whose semantic core contains intrinsic religious, Christian-Orthodox specialised features. Most of those we have included in our bilingual dictionary of Orthodox terms acquire this specificity through contextual use in Christian-Orthodox discourse. In other words, they pass from the common lexicon of French to the specialised lexicon of religious and Christian Orthodox Christianity through their discursive use.

Jezički pejzaž sarajevskih bilborda

Author(s): Aldina ŠALJIĆ / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 22/2024

The paper discusses the linguistic landscape of Sarajevo billboards. It explores the various linguistic devices that this medium contains. Namely, the function of billboard inscriptions is most often persuasive, i.e., they are pragmatically oriented texts, which makes this genre persuasive. Based on a corpus of 27 billboards, it was established that the most common linguistic devices in this medium are those related to the conative function of language. In addition, the corpus shows that billboards are not alien to jargonisms, idiomatic groups, hypocoristics, or colloquialisms. We also saw that billboard inscriptions are most often short and easy to remember, and we also came across those that contain longer sentences or features of a narrative text. They are characterized by a greater connection with reality and reflect different social, economic, or political relations in Sarajevo.

Pismene kompetencije govornika bosanskog jezika druge i treće generacije u Sloveniji

Author(s): Azra HODŽIĆ-KADIĆ,Amra Halilović / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 22/2024

The paper attempts to give an insight into the state of the Bosnian language in Slovenia and to explain theoretically the terminology related to the language of origin and its affinity to the mother tongue. The focus is on the writing competence of pupils (12-14 years old) attending Bosnian language classes. The paper also provides examples of errors that appear in the written works of students attending supplementary Bosnian language schools, who are in daily contact with Slovenian and Bosnian languages. The aim was not to illustrate all the mistakes but only the most frequent ones which are characteristic for speakers of the two related languages. A person who uses two related languages learns the second language much more easily because of interference. On the other hand, it is precisely because of the affinity of these languages that learners unintentionally make mistakes when speaking or writing.

Profili pristupa u medijskom diskursu: analiza na primjeru dva arapska portala

Author(s): Sinanudin Tatarević / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 22/2024

This paper provides linguistic research on the diplomatic crisis in the Gulf between Qatar and the neighboring countries. Van Dijk’s model was used as a theoretical-methodological starting point within the critical discourse analysis. The aim of the research is to present the phenomenon of “access to discourse”, which answers the questions on who participates in the discourse and to what extent. The paper analyzes the approach taken by the parties involved in the crisis as published on the portals of the Arabic TV channels RT Arabic and Sky News Arabia and whether this approach matches the ideological positions of the governments of the countries that own the two media. The approach is investigated using a quantitative method through the analysis of speech roles in the headlines and speech space in the news texts based on a corpus of 908 texts published on the portals in the period of one month.

Riječi koje prodaju: analiza reklamnog diskursa na turskom jeziku

Author(s): Nejra Memedi / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 22/2024

In the modern age, advertising plays a key role in shaping consumer attitudes and behavior. As a form of communication, advertising discourse uses various linguistic strategies to influence consumers’ perceptions and decisions. This paper explores the specific language techniques used in advertisements, with particular emphasis on manipulation and persuasive elements. Analyzing language strategies allows us to understand how to create attractive messages that not only inform, but also persuade. By studying examples from different advertising campaigns, we will explore how language is used to create emotional connections between consumers and brands, and how cultural context shapes advertising messages. In this way, the paper will contribute to the understanding of the ways in which linguistic strategies shape contemporary advertising discourse and influence consumer culture as a whole.

UNE RENCONTRE INATTENDUE : NOUCHI, DISCOURS RELIGIEUX ET RÉSEAUX SOCIAUX

Author(s): Andreea Ioana Aelenei / Language(s): French Issue: 36/2024

This article focuses on the lexical field of religion in Nouchi, an Ivorian variety of French, as it appears in the Facebook posts of the Ivorian rap artist Nash. Having its origins in slang, Nouchi is characterised by a particular lexicon, derived from borrowings and hybrid creations, which can also be found in the field of religious discourse. After a brief presentation of the sociolinguistic context in the Ivory Coast, we will examine the religious content of Nash's posts on her Facebook page, and the reactions they generate in comments. We will then analyse the religious lexicon identified in the corpus from the point of view of its mode of formation, since it relies very little on terms of French origin in the same semantic field.

Changes in the Language Behavior and Language Attitude of Residents of the Black Sea coast of Ukraine after February 24, 2022

Author(s): Tetiana Kuznietsova / Language(s): English Issue: 38/2024

W artykule przedstawiono wyniki badań socjolingwistycznych przeprowadzonych wśród mieszkańców obwodów odeskiego i mikołajowskiego w Ukrainie w latach 2020–2021 i 2023. Główny nacisk położono na trendy zmian, jakie zaszły w zachowaniach językowych, i postawy względem języków używanych w codziennej komunikacji mieszkańców regionu południowego po inwazji Rosji na Ukrainę. Wyniki badań świadczą o kształtowaniu się zbiorowej ukraińskiej tożsamości na południu Ukrainy. Odzwierciedla to podejście wszystkich obywateli do kwestii statusu języka państwowego: w 2023 roku 100% respondentów wyraziło opinię, że ukraiński powinien być jedynym językiem państwowym. Jednocześnie dwujęzyczność ukraińsko-rosyjska zaczęła być postrzegana przez zdecydowaną większość w sposób wyraźnie negatywny. Zaobserwować można aktywizację języka ukraińskiego oraz spadek częstotliwości używania języka rosyjskiego. Badania ponadto wykazują dynamiczną zmianę postawy wobec Suržyka, który w czasie wojny nabył nowe funkcje: stał się wyznacznikiem „przyjaciela”, a także kodem przejściowym używanym w zmianie języka codziennego, tj. w przejściu z zachowania rosyjskojęzycznego do ukraińskojęzycznego.

Moreover, he mentions names referring to a man who speaks indistinctly, through his nose, citing common words and anthroponyms that remain a testimony to the sensitivity and linguistic culture of our ancestors.

Разказите за емиграцията от България след 1944 г.

Author(s): Maria Endreva / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 2/2024

Based on the concept of loyalty by A. Hirschman, the text tries to define and schematically analyze the various narratives about emigration from Bulgaria after 1944. The thesis is that socialism fails to build loyal citizens, which leads to a mass migration from the country after 1989. In the period up to 1989, the official strategy of power to demonize the West and those who fled to it and the heroization of the defenders of socialism, as well as the subversive narrative of free and wealthy society, which becomes a object of desires, are examined. After the Cold war, the narrative of the idealization of the West manifested two aspects: cultural and economic, and motivated millions of people to leave the country. A relatively underdeveloped discourse on the silence of negative experiences abroad is also examined.

AL-CHAKHS (LE PERSONNAGE DESINCARNE). OPERETTE LIBANAISE. AUTEURS-COMPOSITEURS: LES FRERES RAHBANI, VEDETTE: FAIROUZ

Author(s): Elie Kallas / Language(s): French Issue: 23/2024

With their genuine colloquial Lebanese, their tenacious commitment to preserve Lebanese popular traditions and folklore, the Rahbani Brother’s theatre managed to save a precious heritage and helped make their diva interpreter Fairouz one of the most famous 20th century singers in the Arab World. Her short songs combined traditional and popular musical influences, setting them apart from the long repetitious songs in the colloquial Egyptian that were the order of the day. While the Rahbani Brothers’ musical theatre was conceived and performed in colloquial Lebanese, most of the research on the topic carried out so far is in Arabic and their works have become vulnerable to misrepresentations by Western scholars. This article aims into illustrating and partially translating one of the Rahbani’s operetta, namely, al-Chakhs / al-Shakhs (The Puppet Person).
