Nazwy potraw w południowo-wschodniej Małopolsce jako przejaw kontaktów językowych (bandurzak, lewasz, proziak)

Author(s): Dorota Krystyna Rembiszewska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2018

The subject of the presentation concerns three names of dishes, i.e. bandurzak ‘potato pie’, lewasz ‘a kind of potato soup’ and proziak ‘soda bread made from flour and water with some baking soda, baked on an iron sheet’, which occur in the regional lexis of the south east of the Małopolska Region, the part of Poland where a variety of linguistic, cultural and ethnic influences have been observed. The analysis of those names points at the difficulties an etymologist or a dialectal lexicographer have to face in order to show the route of the wordfrom the source language to the target language. It also clearly shows how intertwined the influences of Polish, German, Slovakian, Ukrainian and Hungarian languages are in the south east of Poland.

Suppressing the Memory of Slovak Panslavism: The Historiographical Misrepresentation of Kollár and Štúr

Author(s): Alexander Maxwell / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2023

In the first half of the nineteenth century, intellectuals from northern Hungary usually believed in a single Slavic nation speaking a single language. They imagined Slovaks not as a nation but as a “tribe” of the Slavic nation, and Slovak as a “dialect” or even a “subdialect” of the Slavic language. Modern historians and linguists, however, are so extraordinarily unwilling to acknowledge nineteenth-century Panslavism that many falsify primary source quotations, particularly as concerns the language/dialect dichotomy which features prominently in Panslav linguistic thought: where historical actors refer to a “dialect”, modern scholars substitute the term “language”. The end result is to transform Panslavs into particularist Slovak nationalists. This paper documents the Panslavism of Jan Kollár and Ľudovít Štúr, documents the misrepresentation of their ideas in recent historiography, and speculates why so many scholars refuse to acknowledge past Panslavism.

PAUZY WYPEŁNIONE W WYSTĄPIENIACH NAUKOWYCH ONLINE

Author(s): Beata Ciecierska-Zajdel / Language(s): Polish Issue: 06/2023

The author has analysed 40 scientific and popular scientific online speeches with the aim to determine the frequency and types of filled pauses (FPs) occurring there. The research has shown that there are, on average, 41 additional, semantically non-specific, sound elements in five minutes of a scientific speech. The highest frequency (nearly 70% of the recorded FPs) was filled pauses proper (FPPs), that is sounds resembling elongated vowels or syllables: eee, yyy, emmm. Other forms of filling pauses observed were elongations of final positions, repetitions of words or fragments of phrases, retardatory words (prawda, no, tak), and non-language sounds (smacks, grunts). In terms of perception, elongations and repetitions of words seem more recipient-friendly than FPPs or retardatory words.

LEKSYKA EKONOMICZNA W POLSZCZYŹNIE: DYNAMIKA ROZWOJU I ZAKRES WPŁYWU JĘZYKÓW NIESŁOWIAŃSKICH

Author(s): Irena Szczepankowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 07/2023

The subject of the observation is the Polish economic lexis used in the discourse on economy: agriculture, industry, trade, and financial operations. Its present composition, with a considerable share of borrowings from English, is an effect of the development of the capitalist socioeconomic formation. New symbols have layered on top of the abundant lexical substratum composed of native units as well as Germanisms and Latinisms, including those of Greek provenance, which has been gradually enriched over the centuries. The aim of the analysis is to identify the development trends in the lexical layer that have evolved into the current Polish economic discourse, with a particular focus on the dynamics, extent, and nature of foreign-language influences. The statistical comparison of the lexical resource of three journalistic texts of similar volumes, representative of successive periods of the development of the economic discourse in the Polish language, permits the ascertainment that the broadest assimilation of non-Slavic components into the Polish economic lexis took place in the 19th century.

NORMOTWÓRCZE AKTY MOWY W LAUDACH SEJMIKOWYCH DOBY ŚREDNIOPOLSKIEJ NA PRZYKŁADZIE DEKLARATYWÓW

Author(s): Małgorzata Dawidziak-Kładoczna / Language(s): Polish Issue: 07/2023

Resolutions adopted by regional councils in the Middle Polish age are highly valuable to a historian of the Polish language, since they are testimonies to the early Polish official style. The research leads to the conclusion that the repertoire of performative verbs used for verbalising norms was fairly extensive and contained both native words, mainly prefixal verbs (e.g. odkładać, odsyłać, naznaczać, postanowić, ustanowić, umacniać, uwalniać), and genetically Latin lexis (e.g. aprobować, akceptować, deklarować, deputować, libertować, prefigować). All declaratives in the resolutions are realised by means of indicative sentences with the predicate in the 1st person plural, less frequently in the 3rd person singular. The intentions discussed above are only occasionally expressed using impersonal forms, which prevail in the contemporary official texts.

ANALIZA SOCJOLEKTU WARSZAWSKICH MIŁOŚNIKÓW KOMUNIKACJI MIEJSKIEJ

Author(s): Krzysztof Andrulonis / Language(s): Polish Issue: 07/2023

The aim of this article is to characterise the sociolect of Warsaw enthusiasts of urban transport, with a particular focus on lexis and phraseology. The author attempts a description of the group of people interested in mass transport as a communication community, analyses the formal characteristics of the sociolect they use, and presents the expressions used by them in an arrangement intended to reproduce the linguistic worldview specific to them, which encompasses urban transport vehicles, vehicle equipment, service names, designations of places and people, as well as events involving urban transport.

O ZAPOMNIANEJ DWUJĘZYCZNEJ ŁACIŃSKO􏰀POLSKIEJ EDYCJI DONATA Z 1595 ROKU

Author(s): Wanda Decyk-Zięba / Language(s): Polish Issue: 07/2023

The knowledge of the development of the Polish grammatical terminology in the 16th c. was founded on the published descriptions of the 1583 edition of Aelii Donati Vetustissimi grammatici elementa una cum traductione Polonica and the 1542 edition of Regulae grammaticales... by Andrzej Glaber. The copy of the bilingual Latin–Polish edition of Donat’s grammar book of 1595 owned by Erfurt Library, recorded in WorldCat, not only changes the historical view of the history of the Polish grammatical terminology (the publication is 54 years older than the already known edition of 1649) but also contributes a new quality to the knowledge of the reception of Donat’s grammar book in Poland.

„Lepiej cały kufel wypić, aniżeli kroplę rozlać”. Spożycie alkoholu w świetle przysłów w językach hiszpańskim i polskim

Author(s): Jakub Szymański / Language(s): Polish Issue: 1/2023

The present study examines in contrastive terms issues concerning alcohol consumption raised in collections of proverbs in two languages (Polish and Spanish in the Iberian Peninsula vari- ety and the Mexican variant). These include the pleasure of alcohol drinking, the approval or disapproval of alcohol consumption, attitudes towards abstinence and non-drinkers, and the effects of its intake. The corpus underpinning the research consists of more than 2,900 prov- erbs related to food and drink, and the analytical part uses the methodology of contrastive work in the fields of paremiology and phraseology. The aim of the work is to explore the cultur- ally rooted and culturally motivated judgements and beliefs reflected in proverbs, as well as to encourage general reflection on the values conveyed in proverbs. The conclusions of the ana- lysis allow us to see a number of similarities between languages and cultures, but also reveal important differences in attitudes towards alcohol consumption and, in addition, the perspec- tive from which they were created.

Súčasná slovenská jazykoveda (čo máme, čo nám chýba a čo ďalej?)

Author(s): Martin Ološtiak / Language(s): Slovak Issue: 1/2023

The paper concentrates on the state of contemporary Slovak linguistics. Divided into five parts, it provides an analysis of its strengths and weaknesses. First, a brief overview of similar summarizing papers is given. The second part presents the most important publication results in the areas of lexicography, grammatical and morphosyntactic research, lexicology, derivatology, dialectology, stylistics, sociolinguistics, psycholinguistics, pragmalinguistics, theory of standard language, onomastics, popularization and cultivation of language, diachronic research, linguodidactics and corpus-driven research respectively. The third part highlights several areas that do not receive sufficient attention in Slovak linguistics, particularly phonetics, phonology and orthoepic dictionary, phraseology and phraseological dictionary, synthetic grammatical compendia, popularisation outputs, among others. The focus of the fourth part is the discussion on the main causes of the current state of the art and identification of objective and subjective circumstances behind these causes. Finally, the paper outlines the ways how the current situation could be improved and white spots on the map of Slovak studies could be gradually completed.

Bilanțul aniversării romantismului polonez în România

Author(s): Constantin Geambașu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 2/2022

După cum se știe, în cadrul centenarului romantismului polonez, anul trecut a avut loc o serie de manifestări editoriale, culturale, științifice în Polonia și în întreaga lume. Ciclul de Balade și romanțe al lui Adam Mickiewicz, publicate în anul 1822, a inaugurat o nouă perioadă literară, care a marcat despărțirea de clasicism și promovarea poeticii romantice, bazate în mare măsură pe inspirație din tradiția istorică și populară, precum și pe imaginația eliberată de regulile clasice. În istoria dramatică a Poloniei, dezmembrate în anul 1795 de către Prusia, Rusia și Austria, romantismul a jucat un rol primordial în privința menținerii conștiinței naționale și a încrederii în recâștigarea independenței naționale. Din păcate, atât Insurecția din noiembrie 1830, cât și cea din ianuarie 1863 au eșuat, ceea ce a dus la prelungirea administrației străine în teritoriile poloneze ocupate.

Volumetric terminology in Ludwik Zabrocki’s (1907‒1977) structural phonetics

Author(s): Małgorzata Haładewicz-Grzelak / Language(s): English Issue: 78/2022

There can occur a specific quandary when trying to evaluate the achievements of great thinkers who were ahead of their time in their scientific creative output, and who were forced to develop their investigations within the paradigmatic status quo, which specifically concerns the issue of terminology. In a historiographic perspective, terminology usually results from the current lexical resources that reflect the thought horizons of researchers in a given period of time (a paradigm). Therefore, it might be of merit to explore beyond the terms themselves and to relate them to a whole theory under inspection through a different metatheory. In this paper, we focus on the relation between concept, phenomenological quality and name in the theory of the eminent Polish linguist Ludwik Zabrocki (1907‒1977). We discuss aspects of spatiality in selected facets of Zabrocki’s structural phonetics, focusing on issues such as: the substantiality of sonic primes, the polarity of processes, the field of processes, the space of codal systems and the summation of cognate elements. The analysis highlights the enormous and crucial role that the experience of space plays in Zabrocki’s theory. The physical aspect of experiencing phenomena points to the metalevel of embodiment on the one hand, and phenomenology on the other. Accordingly, juxtaposing the two perspectives as analytical dimensions, we attempt to present Zabrocki’s theory as a type of embodiment, adducing for this purpose some of the tenets of Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenology.

O pewnym typie rozszczepienia argumentu propozycjonalnego

Author(s): Aleksander Kiklewicz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 78/2022

The article discusses the splitting of the propositional argument, i.e. its implementation in the form of two actants that accompany the main predicate. The splitting in question is discussed against the background of other forms of syntactic representation of the basic propositional-semantic content: complete, incomplete, and over-complete. The author focuses on decomposed constructions, which result from contamination and which contain, apart from the sentential actant, a component in the form of a noun, adjective or adverb, raised and located at the beginning of a sentence (the so-called fraction). Constructs of this type are discussed in terms of their syntactic structure (dependency structure in the main clause), grammatical forms of the fractional element and its semantic functions in the matrix clause, as well as the lexicosemantic characteristics of the head predicate. We also address the issue of the compliance of these constructions with language norm.

Słowotwórstwo gniazdowe na usługach diachronii – w poszukiwaniu efektywnej metody badań zapożyczeń leksykalnych

Author(s): Agata Kwaśnicka-Janowicz / Language(s): Polish Issue: 78/2022

The aim of the article is to present the main methodological assumptions of nest-oriented description of word-formation that has been developed within synchronic linguistics, as well as to determine the possibility of applying this method to diachronic research. As the data presented in the paper show, the perspective of internal linguistics within historical linguistic research – the visualization of data in a nest word-formation system superimposed on semantic fields – makes it possible to observe the influence of word-formation systems on the adaptation processes and on the frequency of borrowings in the recipient language. Supplementing this research with approaches from the area of historical (and cognitive) sociolinguistics and linguistic pragmatics, against the background of quantitative-corpus analyses, allows for an effective study of the process of lexical borrowing in a diachronic perspective.
