Nowe życie przysłów w polskich i rosyjskich memach internetowych

Author(s): Gabriela Wilk / Language(s): Polish Issue: 2/2020

The article focuses on functioning of proverbs in Polish and Russian Internet memes. The author analyzed selected Russian proverbs which included the component “wolf ” and their Polish equivalents. Research findings indicate that equivalent units are used to varying degrees by Polish and Russians Internet meme creators, who use the proverbs mainly in a modified form, less often in their original version. The possibility of employing a specific proverb by meme creators proves that it is still deeply rooted in linguistic knowledge of the Polish and the Russian people.

Kim były szesnastowieczne malarki, murarki imydlarki?

Author(s): Anetta Luto-Kamińska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 55/2021

The article describes difficulties connected with interpreting 16th century names of women created out of men’s profession names. The analyzed lexical material was limited to feminine formations created with the use of the -ka suffix out of masculine names ending with -arz. Due to such a clear formal restriction, I analyzed all feminatives in this class found in SPXVI as well as additional occurrences excerpted by me, which constituted over 60% of textual usages analyzed herein. I focused on two functions of the -ka suffix creating nomina feminativa of the time – the names of wives and the “simple” feminatives, that is those in which the formant provides the formative base only with the meaning of femininity. Over 60 lexemes were analyzed. In the first place, I examined all registered appearances of every word in Renaissance texts, with a particular emphasis of uses in non-literary sources providing authentic historical data about the people described. I confronted thus obtained information with 1) the findings of historians, demographics scholars or sociologists researching the role of women in Renaissance society and the opportunities available for women regarding taking up paid work and performing specific professions; 2) lexicographic descriptions of particular entries in SPXVI, broadening lexicographic analysis with the earlier lexis as registered in SStp and the later lexis found in source dictionary (Cn). The final stage of research involved a formal historical word formation analysis of the described feminatives and its dependencies with lexicographic descriptions of particular items.

Różni ale tacy sami? - stereotypy związane z płcią w wybranych podręcznikach do nauczania języka polskiego jako obcego (poziom A1 i A2)

Author(s): Malgorzata Rybka,Marta Wrześniewska-Pietrzak / Language(s): Polish Issue: 55/2021

The article discusses the problem of functioning of stereotypes in the process of teaching the Polish language and culture as foreign language to an adult student. Thanks to the didactic materials presented during the course, learners reconstruct the stereotypes of, for example, Polish, Poles, Polish woman, Polish family and social relations. The description was limited to gender stereotypes and social roles of women and men, their interests, as well as appearance and character traits. The analysis allows to claim that the stereotypical gender image in the didactic materials is present to a different extent. In the analyzed textbooks for teaching Polish as a foreign language, published at the beginning of the 21st century, the content of the stereotype of a woman and a man undergoes modifications. Young people, regardless of gender, are open to the world, they study, travel around Poland and Europe, and maintain contacts with their peers from all over the world. Women who have already finished their studies appear to be people performing professions previously considered female and male professions, similarly they perform almost all activities at home, and men are people for whom professional work is the most important.

O WYRAŻENIACH W MIARĘ I NA MIARĘ. ROZWAŻANIA NA MARGINESIE OPISÓW SŁOWNIKOWYCH

Author(s): Anna Kisiel / Language(s): Polish Issue: 09/2021

The presented paper takes up a debate with the existing (mainly dictionary) descriptions of expressions assuming the form w miarę and na miarę. It shows that, although the intuition of the authors of the descriptions is often right, the descriptions themselves are not sufficiently precise. What is pointed to as a potential source of the misunderstandings is the multitude of the types of usage of the base noun miara. Based on a description of syntactic requirements, connectivity (including frequent collocations), and meanings, three units assuming the form w miarę (a gradation operator and two prepositions) and two units assuming the form na miarę (a preposition and an attributive expression) are distinguished. At the same time, it is noticed that the attributive (adverbial and adjectival) usages are the least established in terms of syntax and the most controversial ones.

OPERATORY GRADACJI MAKSYMALNIE, MINIMALNIE – RÓŻNICE W ZAKRESIE ŁĄCZLIWOŚCI Z PRZYMIOTNIKAMI I PRZYSŁÓWKAMI

Author(s): Adrianna Piotrowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 09/2021

This paper presents an analysis of semantic and lexical connectivity of lexical units assuming the form maksymalnie (maximally), minimalnie (minimally). They are treated as metapredicative operators, or – to be more precise – as operators of gradation, while in fact they are representatives of metalevels. The paper focuses in particular on presenting limitations to the connectivity between the examined operators and the adjectives and adverbs that are called parametric and evaluative in the relevant literature. The analysed lexemes collocate with adjectives and adverbs that are relative in nature. The analyses were conducted based on the dictionary descriptions and examples of usage of the units derived from the National Corpus of Polish (NKJP). The paper uses methods applied in structural grammar and semantics.

PLEBISCYT Z 1920 ROKU W OCZACH WARMIAKÓW NA PODSTAWIE TEKSTÓW USTNYCH

Author(s): Agnieszka Wełpa-Siudek / Language(s): Polish Issue: 02/2022

This paper is an attempt to reconstruct the picture of a groundbreaking historical event captured in oral accounts from Warmia. To this end, terms from the field of ethnolinguistics, in particular linguistic worldview and point of view, have been applied. The analysis of the texts has revealed a clear opposition marked by lexemes polski (Polish) and niemiecki (German) and their derivatives as well as positive evaluation of what is local (Warmian). At the lexical level, borrowings from German (welować ‘to elect’), dialectal lexis (poszczwać ‘to bait’) and a significant share of collocations referring to the situation of elections (odprawiać wiece) can be distinguished. What plays an important role in the picture of the plebiscite is the language exponents of negative phenomena and emotions, e.g. acts of violence, feeling of fear. The predominant stylistic devices employed are metonyms and metaphors.

ZAPOMNIANE ROZSTRZYGNIĘCIA NORMATYWNE WALENTEGO SZYLARSKIEGO

Author(s): Wanda Decyk-Zięba / Language(s): Polish Issue: 05/2022

Walenty Szylarski is the author of two Polish grammar books, one in the form of manuscript of 1767 and the other one published in Lviv in 1770. The subject matter of the analysis is five normative resolutions proposed by Szylarski. They concerned: 1) the use of a diacritic over a, 2) the position of ą in the alphabet; 3) the spelling of j before a vowel; 4) the nominative and accusative cases of singular neuter nouns ending with -ę; 5) the instrumental and locative cases of singular and instrumental case of plural masculine and neuter adjectives. Szylarski’s suggestions concerning orthography had two basic causes: one was the lack of standardised, generally accepted rules of orthography (fluctuations in the use of endings), the other was the incompatibility of the spelling convention and the properties of language in use (j, -ę in the final position, position of ą in the alphabet, use of a diacritic over the conjunction a). Some of the orthographic proposals were noticed, while others were not.
