Despite they are not objectively accurate, many still perceive the texts as accurate, which is likely related to their linguistic features. This thesis investigates why users perceive DeepSeek-generated Bazi divination texts as accurate through a genre-specific computational discourse analysis. Drawing on previous studies of horoscope and divination discourse, the research examines four dimensions of the texts: word frequency, pronoun usage, hedging expressions, and metaphorical patterns. Existing literature suggests that horoscope texts often rely on second-person pronouns, psychological vocabulary, vague or hedging language, and metaphors that encourage self-identification and interpretation. The findings reveal that specialized Bazi terminology plays a central role in constructing an atmosphere of expertise and professionalism. While the polite second-person pronoun "您 (you)" frequently appears, users are more commonly addressed through highly genre-specific nouns such as "命主 (Life Master)" and "日主 (Day Master)", creating a semi-detached analytical perspective that both personalizes and distances the discourse. Hedging expressions are highly prevalent, particularly those influenced by Classical Chinese styles. Contrary to expectations of deterministic ideology, the texts are strongly future-oriented and action-oriented, emphasizing self-improvement, caution, and personal agency rather than passive acceptance of fate. Metaphors derived from Bazi theory, natural elements, idioms, and Classical Chinese poetry help users map abstract metaphysical structures onto their own life experiences. At last, the thesis argues that DeepSeek Bazi divination offers young Chinese users a coherent metaphysical discourse through which their personalities and life circumstances, especially where it feels uncertain and anxious, can not only be meaningfully understood, but also evolve for better with proactive actions. /system/events/logos/000/001/507/large/logo.jpg?1774101830 Ziyan Zhuang 2026-05-14T14:00:00+02:00 14:00 01:00 HDH Halle 199 stuts79-1543-context_effects_in_language_comprehension_when_and_to_what_extent_does_context_play_a_role programm.stuts79.de/events/1543.html false Keynote lecture en Prof. Dr. Pia Knöferle 2026-05-14T15:15:00+02:00 15:15 01:00 HDH Halle 199 stuts79-1521-the_explain_me_this_puzzle programm.stuts79.de/events/1521.html false Investigating the Impact of Cognitive Load on Statistical Preemption Psycholinguistics Posterpäsentation en This study investigates why L2 learners persistently produce ungrammatical structures like “explain me this” despite conflicting input. While native speakers utilize statistical preemption to favor conventional forms, L2 learners are often hindered by L1 interference. The study explores whether working memory capacity is a decisive factor, suggesting that high mental load due to L1 suppression and self-monitoring prevents effective error-driven learning and structural prediction. Why do L2 learners of English persistently produce structures like “Explain me this,” despite never encountering them in native input? To approach the so called Explain me this puzzle proposed by Adele Goldberg 2019, a study will be conducted to explore the mechanism of statistical preemption, a cognitive process by which speakers learn the most conventional ways to express intentions based on cumulative exposure. While native speakers use vast statistical data to intuitively reject ungrammatical structures as the double object structure for verbs like explain, L2 learners often perceive these patterns as acceptable due to native language interference (Robenalt & Goldberg 2015), such as the German “Erkläre mir das”. The central hypothesis is that the effective use of statistical preemption is heavily dependent on working memory (Green 1998). It is argued that L2 speakers fail to benefit from statistical preemption because the high mental load required to suppress their L1 and engage in constant self-monitoring hinders their ability to make real time structural predictions. Without these expectations, the error-driven learning mechanism cannot function effectively. This study proposes to investigate whether increasing cognitive load in proficient L2 speakers causes a breakdown in their statistical calculations, leading them to revert to persistent, non-preempted errors.

In den letzten Jahren wurden zunehmend Studien zur Identifikation von Intonationskurven in verschiedenen Sprachen veröffentlicht (bspw. Petrone & D’Imperio 2011; Petrone & Niebuhr 2014). Eine wichtige Frage dabei ist, wieviel prosodisches Material nötig ist, um einen Sprechakt eindeutig zu identifizieren. Aufbauend auf Forschung zum temporalen Verlauf von Sprechakterkennung durch Muttersprachler:innen (Villani et al. 2025) untersucht die vorliegende Studie, ab welchem Zeitpunkt im Satz Italienisch-Lernende zwischen strukturell formgleichen Aussagen und polaren Fragen unterscheiden können. Mithilfe der Gating-Technik zeigt sich, dass für deutschsprachige Lernende in italienischen Sätzen die fallende bzw. steigend-fallende F0-Kontur im Nuklearakzent ausschlaggebend für die Sprechakterkennung ist. Dabei werden Fragen etwas früher erkannt als Aussagen. Neben dem Vergleich mit muttersprachlichen Proband:innen werden auch die Ergebnisse unterschiedlicher Sprachniveaus verglichen und unter anderem die Relevanz der Prosodie für die Pragmatikvermittlung im Sprachunterricht diskutiert.

While strong verbs like "lesen" 'to read' typically show a root vowel change (ablaut) in the synthetic past tense and no overt suffixal realizations of past tense and agreement for the first/third person singular ("er/sie las"), the past tense forms of weak verbs like "lernen" 'to learn' surface with the suffix -t for past tense and -e for first/third person singular agreement ("er/sie lernte") (Wöllstein, 2022). In Early New High German (Dammel, 2011; Wegera, 2023) as well as in child speech of children acquiring German (Petrova, 2016), forms are attested that mix properties of both conjugation classes: Past tense forms like "nahme" or "fande" surface with a root vowel change and no past tense suffix like strong verbs but with the overt agreement exponent -e of weak verbs. This poster discusses implications for morphological theory within the framework of Distributed Morphology (Halle and Marantz, 1993; Embick, 2015; Alexiadou et al., to appear) that come from these forms. The analysis is based on the concept of secondary feature negligence by children from the analysis of Hein et al. (2024; 2025) on English past tense "errors". Children's representations of secondary features are unstable and they occasionally fail to consider them during Vocabulary Insertion. This concept can be carried over to diachronic change and can - together with assumptions about the directionality of change - account for the attested forms and rule out unattested combinations of properties of strong and weak verbs in one form. Further implications for the modeling of root vowel changes and conjugation classes within Distributed Morphology will be discussed. Nele Arnold Abstract 79.

While -lIK exhibits remarkable semantic diversity, deriving abstract nouns, relational adjectives, and concrete nouns, this study demonstrates that this apparent polysemy reflects three systematic morphosyntactic operations: Abstraction (producing abstract/collective nouns from adjectival or nominal bases), Attributivization (producing relational adjectives from nominal bases), and Association (producing concrete place or container nouns from nominal bases). By organizing -lIK derivatives according to morphosyntactic patterns and semantic root-derivative relations rather than referent types, this approach aims to reveal consistent structural principles underlying surface semantic diversity. The analysis further further wishes to explore the possibility that some Association uses, particularly container nouns, may involve morphemic decomposition into -lI + -K rather than monomorphemic -lIK. With this talk I wish to present the findings of my Bachelor's thesis and to open the gate into new work concerning some open puzzles in this thesis. /system/events/logos/000/001/513/large/20251031_105550.jpg?1774965100 Doruk Işıldak 2026-05-15T11:50:00+02:00 11:50 00:30 DOR 24 1.101 stuts79-1498-abwagung_oder_abwertung programm.stuts79.de/events/1498.html false Kritikäußerung in YouTube-Kommentaren unter französischsprachigen Nachrichtenvideos Pragmatics lecture de Valentina Herber Slides_Herber, Valentina_Kritikäußerung in YouTube-Kommentaren 2026-05-15T14:00:00+02:00 14:00 01:00 DOR 24 1.101 stuts79-1545-contiguity_and_discontinuity_in_nominal_phrases_some_lessons_implications_and_challenges programm.stuts79.de/events/1545.html false Keynote lecture en PD Dr. Andreas Blümel Slides Keynote Andreas Blümel 2026-05-15T15:10:00+02:00 15:10 00:30 DOR 24 1.101 stuts79-1504-einfache_und_komplexe_adjektive_in_der_nominalen_modifikation_des_chinesischen programm.stuts79.de/events/1504.html false lecture de Zehui Guo Abstract 2026-05-15T15:40:00+02:00 15:40 00:30 DOR 24 1.101 stuts79-1529-vielleicht_wir_konnen_eine_party_machen programm.stuts79.de/events/1529.html false Multiply occupied prefields in L2 German Syntax lecture en Iulia Sucutardean 2026-05-15T11:10:00+02:00 11:10 00:30 DOR 24 1.401 stuts79-1540-heritage_speaker_status programm.stuts79.de/events/1540.html false Supporting Berlin's Language Communities Sociolinguistics lecture en Olga Olina Bruno Behling 2026-05-15T11:50:00+02:00 11:50 00:30 DOR 24 1.401 stuts79-1531-dann_muss_man_auch_mal_verstehen_worum_es_dabei_eigentlich_geht_zur_strategischen_rolle_von_eigentlichkeit_in_der_politischen_kommunikation programm.stuts79.de/events/1531.html false Pragmatics lecture de Sarah Decker 2026-05-15T15:10:00+02:00 15:10 00:30 DOR 24 1.401 stuts79-1533-was_man_heute_noch_sagen_kann programm.stuts79.de/events/1533.html false Eine empirische Studie zu Slurs unter Embeddings Pragmatics lecture de Carlotta Schneeberger Slurs-Schneeberger.pdf 2026-05-15T15:40:00+02:00 15:40 00:30 DOR 24 1.401 stuts79-1522-does_your_chatbot_hold_grudges_against_you programm.stuts79.de/events/1522.html false ...or the effects of user politeness on chatbot behavior Pragmatics lecture en /system/events/logos/000/001/522/large/evil_chatbot.png?1774992269 Nursulu Sagimbayeva Does your chatbot hold grudges against you? 2026-05-15T11:10:00+02:00 11:10 00:30 DOR 24 1.501 stuts79-1518-gaslight_gatekeep_jailbreak programm.stuts79.de/events/1518.html false Conversational Manipulation in LLMs Pragmatics lecture en Betül 2026-05-15T11:50:00+02:00 11:50 00:30 DOR 24 1.501 stuts79-1501-negation_in_shared_sign_languages programm.stuts79.de/events/1501.html false Kata Kolok, Inuit Uukturausingit and Adamorobe Sign Language Syntax lecture en Lisa Löwenberg Beschreibung und Zusammenfassung Slides Presentation archivo 2026-05-15T15:10:00+02:00 15:10 00:30 DOR 24 1.501 stuts79-1525-when_bad_means_good_reframing_negative_lexicon_in_online_communities programm.stuts79.de/events/1525.html false Pragmatics lecture en Virtual space is one of the domains undergoing rapid development and transformation. Given that it is characterized by a fairly free expression of emotions and creativity, within the Internet discourse certain linguistic phenomena are more emphasized than anywhere else. The subject of this paper, the paradoxical use of words with negative connotations in a positive context, is one of them. Therefore, the goal is to understand the practical value of negative lexis on social media: survey and software analysis are carried out to verify the assumption that contextually positive sentences containing negative words are perceived as more intense compared to the ones without such words. Also, the potential of software-conducted sentiment analysis, in this case the SentiStrength program, to detect this difference in intensity is tested. The results indicate that negative lexis contributes to the strength of the positive content of the sentence, and that the software is unable to detect this phenomenon. The implications of the research refer to the necessity of analysing linguistic phenomena within internet discourse in order to properly understand this dynamic variety of language, but also to develop the potential of sentiment analysis software to recognize more complex linguistic phenomena.

While various disciplines have already researched religions in the context of climate change, investigating discursive representations of climate change with a linguistic approach is still a relatively new endeavour. This is however a salient target of inquiry, as people shape and organise their behaviour in many areas of life through discursive practices. Considering climate discourses in the Catholic Church, scholars predominantly give one-sided attention to the environmental messages disseminated on an institutional level. It therefore remains to be investigated how Catholic practitioners respond to this messaging and how they discursively represent climate change in relation to their faith. Focusing on the Catholic Church’s environmental communication on Instagram, this interdisciplinary study explores how Catholics respond to officially issued statements on climate change in the comments, examining how these reactions present and shape Catholic conceptions of climate change through language. To do so, I combine insights from ecotheology with an ecological approach to critical discourse analysis, ecolinguistics. Employing Arran Stibbe’s framework Ecolinguistics: Language, Ecology, and the Stories We Live By, I analyse the dominant stories, i.e., widely shared ideas about the environment that determine people’s behaviour and language use. After analysing and evaluating these stories in Catholic climate change discourse, my data indicates four dominant response patterns; three of them – identity constructions of an ideal Pope who only focuses on spirituality, convictions that undermine the facticity of climate change, and backgrounding the latter to negate its urgency – are ecologically destructive, while only one story – the Catholic duty to care for the earth – is ecologically ambivalent.

Distributed Morphology assumes word formation to be syntactic. It is a realizational framework, meaning that the syntax first puts the abstract morphemes together and only later - in a process called Vocabulary Insertion - phonological features are added. We will introduce key concepts such as Vocabulary Insertion and the Subset Principle with English and German examples. This will be followed by hands-on exercises on typologically diverse languages.

At first glance, the use of the ergative marker in Thadou seems to be more (though not entirely) obligatory than in other Trans-Himalayan languages. However, it is shown that nonetheless ergativity in Thadou behaves closer to systems of ergativity in related languages than to those found in languages with more canonical systems of ergativity based on grammatical relations. These languages exhibit what is often referred to as ‘optional ergativity’ which is guided by various factors often related to the realm of discourse-pragmatics and information structure. The occurrence of the marker in Thadou too is conditioned by discourse-pragmatic factors. In the data used, switches in referents, contrastive functions, and the marking of direct speech could be identified as the primary environments. Furthermore, it is argued that the often seemingly more obligatory system of ergativity in Thadou, and South Central languages in general, stands in indirect relationship with their shared innovation of person cross-reference on the verb, which pattern accusatively and might have reduced the environments in which free pronouns and noun phrases, which act as host for the ergative, can occur.

Recruitment is difficult, participants are often un- or underpaid, and results are affected by biases such as the Observer’s Paradox and the Hawthorne Effect. In addition, many sample groups are WEIRD (from Western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic societies). So can Artificial Intelligence (AI) simulate human participants? To test this, I generated a sample of 600 AI participants using the LLaMA 3.1 model (8B), approximating Germany’s population based on 2024 federal statistics. Their questionnaire responses were compared to data from human participants. No prior computational knowledge is required, everyone interested in discussing the implications of AI in linguistic research is warmly invited! Collecting data from human participants is a demanding and time-consuming process. Recruiting participants can be difficult, they are often un- or underpaid, and results are not always reliable due to effects such as the Observer’s Paradox and the Hawthorne. Moreover, participant pools are often WEIRD (coming from Western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic societies). So why not use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to simulate human participants? AI-generated data would be faster to obtain and significantly more cost-efficient than traditional data collection with humans. This case study addresses precisely this question. To investigate it, I generated a sample of 600 AI participants (N = 600) using the LLaMA 3.1 model (8B parameters). The sample approximated the demographic distribution of Germany’s population, based on 2024 data from the Federal Statistical Office (Statistisches Bundesamt). These simulated participants completed a set of questionnaires, and their responses were then compared to data collected from human participants (N = 37). The results generated by LLaMA 3.1 tended to be stereotypical and did not align with human-collected data, particularly in the questionnaire measuring empathy. /system/events/logos/000/001/516/large/Ekran_g%C3%B6r%C3%BCnt%C3%BCs%C3%BC_2026-03-31_202802.png?1774982262 Ali Yıldız
