Креативни образователни модели на работа с езиковото културно наследство: рефлексии върху дейността на Ателие Киликан, Фрайбург(Германия), и разработената методика, насочена към обучението на билингуално растящи деца

Author(s): Miglena Hristozova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 18/2019

This article describes the complex methodological background as well as diverse education forms developed by the multilingual Atelier Kilikan, Freiburg, between 2015 and 2018. It puts an accent on the intercultural and translingual potential, which needs to be widely discovered among bilingual children raised in the multicultural environment in Freiburg (located in the border area between Germany, France and Switzerland). It presents some examples of workshops and language courses for kids of Bulgarian descent, as well as some intercultural methods represented in the complex art installation “The multilingual monster” created by children of different origin, artists and pedagogical mentors. The methodology provides different ideas on how bilinguals can be encouraged to transfer cognitive and academic abilities from one language to another (translan-guaging) and thereby effectively increase their competences in the target language which they currently learn: In this regard, the methods presented here can be used in non-formal education courses of migrant, minority and family languagesThis article describes the complex methodological background as well as diverse education forms developed by the multilingual Atelier Kilikan, Freiburg, between 2015 and 2018.

About the Syntactic Structure of Bulgarian Proverbs and English Proverbial Parallels to Them

Author(s): Nadezhda Ershova / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2021

The article considers the most frequent sentence structures of Bulgarian proverbial parallels to Russian proverbs included into G. L. Permyakov’s paremiological minimum. The aim of the study is to classify the syntactic structures of the Bulgarian proverbs in comparison with the structures of the English proverbial parallels. The research has been based on the findings of a paremiological sociolinguistic experiment conducted by Professor M. Yu. Kotova of St. Petersburg State University and her paremiological group that resulted into series of publications titled “Tetradi Paremiographa” (“Handbooks of a Paremiographer”). The relevance of studying sentence structures is due to the fact that the coverage of grammatical issues, i.e. the analysis and description of the logical and syntactic structures of proverbs, is not paid sufficient attention in many languages.

Coining Nonce Words: Contrastive Research Based On A Novel

Author(s): Svetlana Nedelcheva / Language(s): English,Bulgarian Issue: 2/2021

Nonce words or occasionalisms are coined for a particular occasion and usually they are used just once. It is especially difficult when such newly created words have to be translated to another language. This article studies John Harding’s novel Florence & Giles and its Bulgarian translation (by Vladimir Molev). It is a sinister Gothic story told by the 12-year-old Florence living in an isolated New England mansion in 1891. She distorts words by transforming them into other parts of speech, e.g. nouns and adjectives are turned into verbs, nouns into adjectives, adverbs and prepositions into verbs, etc. At first, it could be annoying to the reader, however, once you get used to her narration, it is both fanciful and charming. This research studies the intensely concentrated nonce words in the text and their equivalents in Bulgarian from the point of view of their grammatical, word-formative and semantic characteristics. The contrastive method when applied to the parallel corpus shows some similarities and a lot of differences in the particular characteristics of nonce words due to the specifics of the two languages under discussion.

Какво е курорт?

Author(s): Ilya Zlatanov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 6/2021

The article examines the evolvement of the Bulgarian word kurort in historical terms. The first part discusses the practices of using the healing power of nature from ancient times to the present day. Special attention is paid to balneology in Bulgaria as evidenced by numerous settlements named Banya, lit. ‘bath’. Next, an analysis is made of the word kurort and its dissimilarity from the corresponding English and French terms. The emergence of the concept of Kurort in the German language is associated with the general development of medicine from the XIV century onwards, when the medical terminology changed.

СВЕЩЕНО И ПРОФАННО. ГОТОВИ ФРАЗИ В БИБЛЕЙСКИЯ ТЕКСТ

Author(s): Yana Sivilova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 20/2021

The article discusses a number of set phrases incorporated in the text of the Bible. The author focuses on the history of the units: a heart of stone, an eye for an eye, and to hide one’s light under bushel. The different traditions and the primary contexts in which they were initially used are shown and also some of the most significant transformations of their meanings up to the present day were analysed. Although their antiquity supposed only hypothetical findings, the discussed connections with ancient cultures pile specific connotations on their meanings.

МОЖЕ ЛИ СЕ РЕЋИ "У БОЉШОМ ТЕАТРУ"?

Author(s): Žarko Veljković / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 77/2022

During the process of transcribing the name of the Moscow’s Bolshoi Theater (Большой театр) to Serbian, the Serbian normativistics was tending to gradually turn away from the declension Бољшој теат(а)р, Бољшоја театра (1960) to more or less variant declension Бољшој теат(а)р, Бољшог/Бољшоја театра (1989, 1994, 2010), concluding with the declension Бољшој театар, Бољшог театра (2013) exclusively. On the last transcriptional solution given, the author made remarks that it was discrepant, confusing, impractical, and gram- matically impossible to implement. Thus the author suggested that the Serbian normativistics adopt the following, most practical, solution: as it has come into use that way, Бољшој-театар should be normativized as a semicompound word. In all other and future cases, the Russian toponyms and names beginning with (Не) большой, in the neutre form (Не)большое, should be transcribed as (Не)бољши and (Не)бољше with (joint) genitive case (Не)бољшег, e. g. Russian Большой Город> Serbian Бољши город with genitive case Бољшег города, Russian Небольшой драматический театр > Serbian Небољши драматически театар with genitive case Небољшег драматическог театра, Russian Большое Трифоново > Serbian Бољше Трифоново with genitive case Бољшег Трифоновa. And in the case of Russian toponyms and names beginning with (Не)большая in the feminine gender, their transcription should not be altered anyhow, but stay the way as it is in Serbian normativistics – they should be transcribed as beginning with (Не)бољша(ја) with genitive case (Не)бољше, e. g. Russian Большaя Речка > Serbian Бољша(ја) Речка with genitive case Бољше Речке.

Sociolinguistic Credo of a Foreign Language Teacher: The Case of Digital Classroom

Author(s): Ekaterina A. Savkina,Elena G. Tareva,Dimitrina Lesnevskaya / Language(s): English Issue: 6/2022

The last two years saw a dramatic increase in the use of digital classrooms due to the new pandemic realities. Internet platforms and social networks offer teachers many options for interacting with their students and colleagues. Online communication differs from face-to-face communication in many aspects and for linguadidactic purposes should be reconsidered from a sociolinguistic point of view. The aim of the study is to explore sociolinguistic aspects of teachers’ nature in online intercultural communication. The study relies on a questionnaire and interviews to collect data about students’ level of sociolinguistic awareness, their ideas about professional online interaction, and their views on sociolinguistic difficulties. The research provides a comparative analysis of the sociolinguistic competence status in Russian and European methodology. The paper introduces the list of internal and external features that influence interlocutors’ sociolinguistic behavior during intercultural communication online. The results suggest that there are a lot of digital factors that determine the communication outcome. The term “sociolinguistic credo” and its definition are presented. It is admitted that external and internal peculiarities should be taken into account in order to train future foreign language teachers effectively. There should be equality of cultures, especially on the Internet where it is easy to lose all cultures behind avatars.

Biblical and Anthropocentric Phraseologisms in Dmytro Dontsov’s Works: A Cognitive Aspect

Author(s): Oksana Mykytyuk / Language(s): English Issue: 34/2022

The paper deals with Dontsov’s “phraseological speech” in the framework of cognitive linguistics. The ways of creating partially-authorial (biblical) and authorial (anthropocentric) phraseologisms are discussed and their assignment to different phraseological-semantic microfields is suggested. A number of Dontsov’s phraseologisms are viewed as linguomental pictures of the world that are potentially acceptable for a wider use. Methodologically, the research presents a cluster of general scholarly methods and those used in cognitive linguistics as well as special approaches developed in modern anthropocentric research. Methods of cognitive linguistics are of the utmost importance and include categorizing the phenomena of the objective reality and the interdisciplinary method of interpretation related to the correlation of language data with cultural studies, political science, ethnopsychology and other disciplines. Semantic and contextual analyses are also used as supplementary methods. The potential value of the research is ensured by its contribution to the modern anthropocentric linguistics that aims at studying language through its speaker. Structural-and-logical scheme illustrating the cognitive stages of generating a phraseologism is suggested and the importance of categorization of lingual phenomena is emphasized. Dontsov’s phraseologisms are claimed to be means of exposure of the national Ukrainian lingual picture, symbols of the national worldview, and the prism of the world perception and understanding.

СРЕДСТВА ПАРАЈЕЗИЧКЕ ЕКСПРЕСИВНОСТИ У ПИСАНОМ ДИСКУРСУ: АНАЛИЗА ПРИМЕРА У "DEJAME QUE TE CUENTE…" ХОРХЕА БУКАЈА

Author(s): Gorana Zečević Krneta / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 79/2022

En este trabajo se analiza la presencia y modos de manifestación del paralenguaje en Déjame que te cuente... del escritor y psiquiatra argentino Jorge Bucay. Tres son las razones que nos llevaron a elegir este libro: el título del libro lleva puntos suspensivos que llegan a ser uno de los pilares de la expresividad artística; luego, es una obra llena de diálogos que refleja en papel la estructura típica del discurso oral; y la tercera razón, el autor, además de ser escritor, es un médico psiquiatra y psicoterapeuta, lo que implica una mayor capacidad de matizar la narración con medios no verbales. Bucay utiliza todos los recursos disponibles para diversificar su expresión y hacer reflexionar al lector. Esta intención del narrador se ve ejemplificada a través de muchos elementos paralingüísticos, comunicativamente relevantes. En nuestro análisis partimos de las clasificacones elaboradas por Poyatos (1998, 2002a, 2002б), Antúnez Pérez (2005, 2006) y Panić Cerovski (2017), pero hacemos notar que algunos parámet- ros del análisis deben ser reconsiderados de acuerdo con el canal comunicativo al que pertenecen. Establecida la diferencia entre el tipo visual y el auditivo de los medios de expresividad paralingüística, los resultados del análisis sacan a luz diferentes elementos de tipo visual, entre los cuales destacan los elementos tipográficos y la organización espacial del texto. Los signos de puntuación, interjecciones y vocalizaciones representan las transcripciones de los parámetros auditivos, conque se consideran como elementos paralingüísticos de tipo auditivo. El silencio como ausencia del sonido se manifiesta en la obra tanto al nivel paralingüístico (puntos suspensivos) como al nivel lingüístico (el sustantivo silencio). Se toman en consideración también las descripciones ver- bales que, pese a su realización verbal en la obra, tienen una función primariamente paralingüística gracias a la relación que se establece entre el signo y lo designado.

ОБРАЗУВАНЕ НА БЪДЕЩЕ ВРЕМЕ С ЧАСТИЦА „И“ В ГОВОРИ ОТ СРЕДНОГОРИЕТО, СТРАНДЖА-САКАР И БЕСАРАБИЯ

Author(s): Vasil Kondov,Ivan G. Iliev / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 16/2019

This article traces the use of the future particle i/j ‘shall, will’ in Bulgarian dialects spoken in the region of the Sredna Gora to Middle Northern Bulgaria, in South-Eastern Bulgaria, and in Bessarabia. The authors argue that this phenomenon is one of the characteristic features of the socalled Chijshij Bulgarian dialects in Bessarabia and that, in them, it is inherited from the dialects in the region of Sredna Gora which is the land of origin of the above-mentioned Bulgarian dialects in Bessarabia.

БЕЛЕЖКИ ЗА ФОРМИТЕ НА ДВЕ БЪДЕЩИ ВРЕМЕНА В БЪЛГАРСКИЯ ПРЕСЕЛНИЧЕСКИ ГОВОР В УЗУНКьОПРЮЙСКО

Author(s): Ivan G. Iliev,Petko Petkov / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 16/2019

This article discusses future tense particles in a Bulgarian dialect spoken in European Turkey (in the villages around the towns of Uzunköprü and Babaeski). The dialect is spoken by Muslim Bulgarians who left Bulgaria at the end of the 19th century or later. Most of them originate from Middle Northern Bulgaria but some of them have come to this place from Northern Greece and have mixed with the others. There is a variety of future tense particles in the dialect under consideration: ša, sa, za, ža ‘shall, will’. The authors show examples of the use of the above mentioned particles and draw conclusions about their origin in the dialect analyzed.
