DESCRIPTION:In this talk I want to show that a standard assumption about
markedness can't be applied to German as easy as it might seem: masculin
e gender is unmarked in most languages that distinguish a masculine and
a feminine gender. \nSome data from different domains of German nouns ar
e going to be presented to show that the picture is a lot more complicat
ed than it might seem at first glance but maybe can be explained under t
he assumption that there are interpretable and uninterpretable gender fe
atures located at a little n head.

DESCRIPTION:This paper is a linguistic stylistic analysis of the question
s and answers in the direct speech of Muriel Spark's novella "The Driver
's Seat" (1970). The theoretical framework is based in pragmatics\, i.e.
in adjacency pairs and Grice's Cooperative Principle. The goal of the p
aper is to try to offer pragmatic explanations for the sense of disjoint
edness in the text of the novella that literary scholars have commented
on and to contribute to the body of linguistic stylistic analyses of lit
erary works.

DESCRIPTION:Some languages\, in particular Cuzco Quechua (as reported by
Faller\, 2002)\, have available quotative readings for these hearsay evi
dentials\, which specify their semantics into something that glosses as
"Someone said: "P""\, hence effectively quoting the sayings of another s
peaker. However\, this ambiguity does not apply to every language with g
rammaticalized hearsay evidentials: in fact\, it appears to be rare\, re
ported in only seven languages (Kortokova\, 2017). Here\, we argue that
the explanation for this scarcity may lie at the pragmatics-discourse in
terface\, and in particular in the role of illocutionary force. Illocuti
onary force refers to the kind of commitment a speaker may hold in regar
ds to their utterance (e.g. belief\, doubt\, agreement\, etc.). In our a
ccount\, we hypothesize that the marking of quotation could be making th
e inference that the speaker commits to the quoted proposition more avai
lable\, as the act of quotation itself is ambiguous in terms of proposit
ional attitudes from the speaker's behalf. Languages with hearsay eviden
tials should be thus expected to avoid quotative ambiguities\, as these
pragmatically interfere with the cancelling of speaker commitment that\,
in fact\, motivates the functional specialization of hearsay reportativ
es over time. Examples from several unrelated languages to illustrate th
is argument will be discussed.

DESCRIPTION:This study analyzes the construction [unless X] as based on t
he Construction Grammar framework (cf. FILLMORE et al.\, 1988\; GOLDBERG
\, 1995\, 2006\; BYBEE\, 2016)\, in association with the Corpus Linguist
ics (McENERY\; HARDIE\, 2013\; SINCLAIR\, 2005) methodology. Motivated b
y the findings of Mendes Junior and Mattos (2021)\, who reported high ra
tes of productivity in the construction [because X]\, we propose a model
that accounts for the new constructional properties of unless. Data wa
s collected through the iWeb Corpus (DAVIES\, 2018)\, which contains 14
billion words extracted from about 22 million web pages. Our analysis sh
ows that the construction [unless X] heavily favors verbs in the past pa
rticiple\, adjectives and nouns in the [X] slot. Following Fillmore et a
l. (1988)\, [unless X] can be understood as codable\, formal\, extra-gra
mmatical construction. We suggest that [unless X] often behaves similarl
y to the traditional use of unless\, though it favors reduced clauses an
d is mainly used in more informal contexts.

Suñer 1988\; Zdrojewski 2014). For the analysis\, the concept of grammat
icalization following Lehmann (2002) will be used. The question of this

object agreement in the development from Old Spanish with Past Participl
e Agreement to Modern Argentinean Spanish with Clitic Doubling?

DESCRIPTION:Gender-inclusive language has evolved into a much-debated top
ic during the past years\, discussed interdisciplinarily from theoretica
l to psycholinguistics\, sociology\, and economy – and by anyone who use
s language.\n\nStudies on German that primarily relied on questionnaires
(reviewed in Braun et al. 2005)\, cloze tests (Klein 1988)\, and catego
risation tasks with picture matching (Irmen & Köhncke 1996) disqualify t
he generically used masculine forms as pseudo-generic – failing their gr
ammatically prescribed function to include referents of any Gender. Gend
er-balanced expressions (pair and split forms like Lehrer und Lehrerinne
n) make explicit reference to female presence and participation\, and th
us elevate a more equitable interpretation.\nOnline methods to investiga
te the processing of Gender-sensitive language are surprisingly rare amo
ng research on the phenomenon\, except for reaction time measures (Irmen
& Köhncke 1996\, Irmen & Kaczmarek 2000) and eye-tracking in reading (I
rmen & Schumann 2011).\nIn addition\, Gender-neutral language (GNL) has
not been focused on in the majority of experiments\, and when it was amo
ng the stimuli\, results were inconclusive (De Backer & De Cuypere 2012)
or found such alternatives to be ineffective (resembling masculine gene
rics\, Braun et al. 2005)\, despite the fact that guidelines on non-disc
riminatory language use commonly recommend these.\nGender-neutral (GN) e
xpressions for personal reference in German include\n • nominalised p
articiples\; nominalisations in general: Interessierte\, Lehrende\n •
collective singulars: Publikum\, Kollegium\n • compounds (e.g.\, wit
h a notion of “-person”): Ansprechpersonen\, Lehrkräfte\n • paraphras
es that background a (gendered) subject: e.g.\, passives\, relatives\n
\nIn a visual world eye-tracking study\, the comprehension of plural
generics using masculine nouns and GN forms was tested for roles and oc
cupations.\nIn complex stimulus scenarios\, reference had to be establis
hed to referent images presented on a screen. At the end of each item\,
a question was asked in order to (re)identify the image that matched the
referents of the respective setting best. Images depicted 1) a single p
erson (protagonist)\, 2) an all-female group\, 3) an all-male group\, 4)
a mixed Gender group of female and male members. The group referents we
re introduced with either a) masculine nouns (die Lehrer)\, b) female-sp
ecific feminine nouns (die Lehrerinnen)\, or c) one of the upper three n
ominal GN variants (die Lehrkräfte). \nResults confirm the frequent male
bias in masculine forms that are used as generics\, that is\, their mal
e-specific interpretation. Furthermore\, stereotypicality of nouns had a
n impact on responses. The GN alternatives\, which are generally known t
o aim for indefinite reference (“marked” for Gender-fair language) were
found to be most qualified to elicit mixed Gender group interpretations.
When reference was established with GN terms\, an inclusive response wa
s consistently elicited. This was both indicated by eye movements and re
sponse proportions\, but to a different extent depending on the particul
ar GN noun type. Concepts that abstract from Gender in their linguistic
forms (“neutralising” it) appear to be more inclusive\, and thus better
candidates for generic reference than masculines.

DESCRIPTION:In this talk I show how computational linguistics generates a
ccessible linguistic research questions\, the answers to which have the
potential to refute popular linguistic theories. Constructions which re
quire grammatical identity ('copy constructions') abound in the languag
es of the world\, but the topic of what counts as a copy has hardly been
investigated\; indeed\, it seems obvious that copies are just\, well\,
copies! Not all 'copies' are created equal\, and different mechanisms f
or generating copies predict wildly divergent outcomes. We will review t
hree such mechanisms\, and I will pose simple descriptive questions for
fieldwork which will allow the matter to be settled!

ellipsis (VPE). In particular\, other analyses of argument drop or\narg
ument ellipsis are shown to be insufficient to explain all the available
data for Kiswahili. To\nassume VSVPE in Kiswahili\, means to assume ver
b movement out of the VP. This means\nVSVPE can be used as supporting ev
idence for head movement in the language. I show that\nverb movement out
of the VP and concequently VSVPE is available in Kiswahili.

DESCRIPTION:Emotional prosody is an important part of speech as it allows
us to convey our affective state to listeners. However\, the perception
of emotional prosody underlies several factors and is not universal to
all speakers\, listeners\, and emotions. While I am mainly interested in
the impairment of emotional prosody perception and production\, during
this talk I would like to present a study I conducted on neurotypical in
dividuals to test the processing of emotional prosody perception. In ord
er to determine if processing is facilitated by certain types of emotion
s\, I measured reaction times in a classification task which involved au
dio recordings of semantically neutral sentences in respectively neutral
\, happy\, sad and angry prosody. Earlier research on general emotion re
cognition and emotional prosody perception found an advantage for negati
ve emotions. This cognitive mechanism is called negativity bias. Also\,
there is some conflicting evidence for faster processing of anger in par
ticular. My findings were partly in line with this. I found evidence for
a negativity bias supported by significantly shorter reaction times for
sad stimuli and less accurate responses for happy stimuli. However\, an
gry stimuli did not evoke faster reaction times than sad stimuli\, there
fore I could not find evidence for a threat advantage. This might be due
to study design and has to be investigated in further experiments.

DESCRIPTION:One of the major goals of linguistic theory is to account for
attested grammars\, and at the same time rule out impossible grammars.
In order to achieve this goal\, we need accurate generalizations about w
hat is (im)possible cross-linguistically\, which is why fieldwork on und
erdocumented languages\, guided by theoretical considerations\, is of fu
ndamental importance.\nIn this talk\, I report on my own experience doin
g fieldwork on Kipsigis\, a Nilotic language spoken in Kenya. More speci
fically\, I highlight the need for data from Nilotic and other understud
ied languages\, I present my methodology\, success stories as well as ch
allenges\, and I discuss what theoretical (especially generative) lingui
sts can learn from linguistic fieldwork.

DESCRIPTION:Während das Eindringen fremder Wörter in die deutsche Sprache
nicht nur von sogenannten SprachpflegerInnen stets mit Argwohn betracht
et wird\, sondern auch ein häufig zu beobachtendes Phänomen ist\, ist di
e Übernahme fremder Wortbildungselemente weitaus unauffälliger und selte
ner. Diese Art der Entlehnung setzt einen sehr intensiven Sprachkontakt
zwischen der Geber- und Nehmersprache voraus. So sind beispielsweise die
mittelhochdeutschen Dialekte in besonderem Maße durch altfranzösische V
arietäten beeinflusst\, deren Spuren auch noch in der deutschen Gegenwar
tssprache zu finden sind. \nIn diesem Vortrag möchten wir uns mit den Su
bstantiven auf -ier und den Verben auf -ieren im Mittelhoc
hdeutschen beschäftigen. Hierbei geht es vor allem darum zu beurteilen\,
ob es sich bei diesen Lexemen um direkte Entlehnungen des Französischen
oder Wortbildungen des Deutschen handeln könnte. Im Hintergrund der Unt
ersuchung steht zudem stets die Frage\, aus welchem Grund ein fremdes Wo
rtbildungsmuster einen festen Platz in der deutschen Sprache findet\, wä
hrend die Verweildauer anderer Wortbildungsmuster nur sehr kurz ist.\n\n

DESCRIPTION:During language acquisition\, German grammatical gender poses
difficulty due to a lack of reliable noun cues from which gender can be
inferred and because of syncretism within the paradigm. These factors a
ffect the acquisition of indefinite articles\, definite articles\, and p
ersonal pronouns associated with nouns. In this talk\, I will give a bri
ef overview of an experiment on combining multiple gender cues to disamb
iguate the paradigm’s overlaps: By adding inflected adjectives\, further
morphemes were included. In an artificial language learning experiment\
, one participant group was presented sentences including semi-artificia
l color adjectives\, while another group was exposed to the same sentenc
es without artificial adjective suffixes. There were no significant diff
erences between the two groups concerning sentence production with train
ed material and concerning grammaticality judgment tasks with trained an
d novel material. Nonetheless\, participants of the inflected condition
performed significantly higher compared to the other group at generalizi
ng their knowledge to new material during a sentence production task wit
h untrained items. The study concludes that the higher input complexity
caused stronger paradigm knowledge.

DESCRIPTION:Morphosyntactic tagging is the task of choosing the correct m
orphosyntactic analysis for a text. The input to a morphosyntactic tagge
r are all possible analyses of the given text\, for example using a rule
-based morphological analyzer. Morfeusz 2 (Woliński\, 2014)\, a morphosy
ntactic analyzer for Polish\, splits text into segments and assigns lemm
as and morphosyntactic tags to all possible (sub)word segmentations. Eac
h morphosyntactic tag consists of a coarse POS tag and more fine-grained
information\, such as number\, case\, person\, etc. In many cases\, the
re is more than one morphological analysis for one text: The text can be
split into segments in different ways\, and one atomic segment can have
more than one analysis. Morfeusz 2 captures these ambiguities in a dire
cted acyclic graph. \nEach graph node is a pair of input segment and inf
ormation assigned to that segment. The morphological analyzer makes no s
tatement about the correctness of a particular analysis. The task of the
model presented here is identifying the correct analysis. Put different
ly\, the model is trained to identify the correct path through the graph
. \nIn this talk\, I describe how I tackled this task using a LatticeLS
TM architecture (Sperber et al. 2017). This specialized LSTM architectur
e computes representations for each graph node that depend on the repres
entations of preceding and succeeding nodes. The talk will focus on the
design of the neural architcture\, and describe the practical part of im
plementing the architecture with PyTorch and conducting experiments.\n

DESCRIPTION:This talk will be a work-in-progress report of my MA thesis d
ealing with how prosody relates to and informs chunking phenomena. Even
though prosodic features\, such as intonation\, pauses and stress\, natu
rally group items together in spoken language\, the focus of studies con
cerned with chunking is often on analyzing transcribed spoken language\,
e.g.\, the spoken parts of COCA or the BNC (for English)\, and not the
analysis of actual audio recordings. Furthermore\, few studies have deal
t with prosody and chunking from a diachronic perspective. \nThis talk a
ims to give insight into chunking phenomena from both a synchronic and a
diachronic perspective by analyzing data from two comparable data sets\
, the London-Lund-Corpus 1 (containing prosodically annotated spoken Eng
lish from the 1960s and 1970s) and the London-Lund Corpus 2 (a spoken co
rpus with audio from the 2010s). The examples that will be discussed are
"sort of/kind of/ type of"-constructions (showing the connection betwee
n phonetic reduction and grammaticalization)\, the "time"-compounds "eve
ry time" and "any time" (showing stress shifts and grammaticalization)\,
and the "thing is is that" construction (showing the connection between
syntactic reanalysis and the shifting of boundary tones).

DESCRIPTION:The representation of women’s language use in the media plays
an important role in both perpetuating and challenging stereotypical ge
nder roles in society\, and a particular area for concern is the impact
that this can have when aimed at young audiences. Children’s fairy-tales
have been especially scrutinised by critics for the status that they ca
rry in society as traditional and timeless narratives that are passed do
wn through generations\, but their messages and attitudes towards gender
may not always keep up with the developments and progress in gender the
ory or politics. To this end\, I will be discussing the relationship bet
ween women’s language use and the representation of gender in Disney fil
ms\, and providing analysis of portrayals of women’s language in Disney’
s Cinderella (1950) and Brave (2012). To substantiate my own analysis\,
I will also engage with several different research traditions\, primaril
y referring to Robin Lakoff’s contributions to the deficit approach\, an
d more recent developments in gender theory and feminist linguistics. Su
bsequently\, we can observe development in the way that women’s language
has been presented in Disney films\, which marks a shift in attitudes t
owards gender and begins to challenge stereotypical gender roles that ar
e often portrayed in the media.

DESCRIPTION:The Slavic languages distinguish two types of verbs of motion
— uni-directional and multi-directional. The aim of this research is to
find out their Indo-European background\, i.e. the etymology. It will a
lso give an insight into the Indo-European and Slavic verbal morphology.

DESCRIPTION:This poster presentation offers to throw light on the essence
of motivation and mainly ‘self-motivation’ as a catalyst to reach lingu
istic self-confidence and therefore self-competence in linguistic commun
ication. This quantitative research scenario examined the contribution o
f Egyptian EFL learners’ motivation\, self-motivation\, and linguistic s
elf-confidence in their proficiency\, as well as language-use anxiety to
their willingness to communicate (WTC) level\, along with a minor possi
ble impact of age and gender on the learners’ reported L2 WTC. 50 univer
sity students – 25 freshman students vs. 25 graduating senior students –
were randomly selected to fill in a questionnaire for this study.

DESCRIPTION:In Mandarin Chinese\, verbs (kan `look’) can be reduplicated
(kan-kan `look-look’) to express a delimitative aspectual meaning\, name
ly that the event denoted by the verb happens in a short duration and/or
a low frequency (kan-kan `look a little bit'). The current study tries
to determine a suitable formal and unified analysis for the structure of
verbal reduplication in Mandarin Chinese. I show that the analysis of t
he reduplicant as a verbal classifier seems inappropriate due to their d
ifference in behaviours. Some generative analyses assume the reduplicant
to be an aspect affix. But a construction-based approach seems to be mo
re suitable than a generative one\, because it deals with the semantical
ly empty phonological element yi better and provides an account for the
phonology\, as well. Finally\, I propose a Head-Driven Phrase Structure
(HPSG) analysis for the verbal reduplication in Mandarin Chinese. I mode
l the change of the semantics via lexical rule and proposed a type hiera
rchy for the lexical rules to account for the variations in the phonolog
y.

DESCRIPTION:This workshop will provide a space for discussions and ideas
about teaching linguistics in schools. We will first hear a 15-minute in
put in which we'll look at Onur's current experiences with teaching a li
nguistics class in a German high school. We'll then briefly look at the
frameworks that different national curricula already provide for teachin
g linguistics at schools. In the remaining 45 minutes\, we'll create a f
orum to let ideas for teaching linguistics flourish. We'll also be able
to critically reflect whether learning linguistics at school is relevant
. \nIn summary\, this workshop aims to practically develop and didactica
lly evaluate the question of linguistic contents in the language classro
om.

DESCRIPTION:Das ehemalige Kronland Österreich unter der Enns\, heute Nied

rund dafür war\, dass nur das Deutsche als offizielle Landessprache aner
kannt war. Wie präsent allerdings auch andere Sprachen der Habsburgermon
archie – insbesondere das Tschechische und Slowakische – in ruralen und
urbanen Kontexten waren\, soll in diesem Vortrag anhand von Angaben zu n
icht-deutschen Volkssprachen auf den Wenkerbögen\, Volkszählungsergebnis
sen und historischen Pressetexten sowie Stellenanzeigen der drei Orte Si
erndorf\, Spillern und Stockerau im Weinviertel aufgezeigt werden. Ziel
ist es\, ein repräsentatives Bild von Mehrsprachigkeit und historischen
Sprachkontaktszenarien zu zeichnen und die Bedeutung slawischer Sprachen
auch außerhalb Wiens in Erinnerung zu rufen.
