Forms of address in TshivendaMatloga, Eric Matladi 12 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study investigates the use of address form in Tshivenda. Chapter one concentrates
on aims of study, data collection and the organisation of study.
Chapter two concentrates on various studies which deal with forms of address in different
communities. They introduce forms of address as a routine between people who are
embedded in the socio-cultural context of society.
Chapter three deals with the informal use of forms of address. This includes names,
pronouns and kinship terms. Different names deal with Tshivenda names and Non-
Tshivenda names, and the way they are used in different context as a form of address.
The controversial use of a pronoun as a form of address is also taken into account as well
as kinship terms as a form of address in family where forms are applied in informal
situation. [Where the place is unstructured and they are applied in the traditional way.]
Chapter four investigates the formal use of address in a structured situation, this covers
titles, occupations, special address forms and innovations. Titles are used in a more
structured situation. They show social rank or official position such as Doctors, Professors
etc. Occupational terms are connected with a person's job. These are terms like nurses,
teachers etc. The special forms of address are used in certain occasions where the
sender uses an unpopular form of address, uses new techniques and they are practised
by elite class, who tries to change the status quo.
Chapter five gives the main conclusions of the thesis. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hierdie studie ondersoek die gebruik van aanspreekvorme in Tshivenda. Hoofstuk een

Spanish Address Forms in US NewspapersJanuary 2012 (has links)
abstract: Advertisements intend to persuade the reader to invest money or time in a product or service. Newspapers contain advertisements that are space-limited, thus necessitating a concise and convincing message that will influence readers. Nord (2008) analyzed conative function (Jakobson 1960) as a persuasive tool in a corpus of Spanish, English, and German advertising texts. A portion of Nord's study focused on sender attitude indicators directed at addressees as a key element of conative function, and analyzed address forms among several attitude indicators found in print advertisements. The current study analyzed 604 Spanish newspaper advertisements in Arizona and Florida, focusing on possible independent factors related to the probability of the occurrence of various address forms. These factors included: the type of product being advertized and its cost, the nature of the advertisement, the location of the advertisement in the newspaper (main section, sports, etc.), intended audience (including age and sex), geographic region of the newspaper, and each newspaper as compared to others. These variables were categorized and statistically analyzed using a quantitative design. The study provided results indicating a strong statistical relationship between the presence of address forms and product type, a moderate relationship with audience age, and a mild relationship with product cost. Various similarities and differences were also found when comparing the data geographically. / Dissertation/Thesis / M.A. Spanish 2012

Learning from the city? : the construction of Romanian elitesBeteringhe, Alina Magdalena 03 May 2014 (has links)
This thesis will focus on the changes that modernization, especially during the transition
period from communism to capitalism, brought to the use of the terms “domn” (sir) and
“doamna” (lady) in Romania. The main question of the research will be whether these terms are
still used and if they are used with the same meaning as they were before: in short, what does it
mean to be ‘lady” or “sir” in modern Romania? The thesis will try to examine the way modern
life lessened the differences between country side/rural life and town/urban life and between
people with different educational levels. In Romania little research has been done examining
how modernization affects everyday life and how individuals view and understand the world.
Modernization is a key word in almost every field in Romania today, but the human dimension
especially that of everyday life has not received much attention. The thesis will try to give a
perspective on how the recent social transformations have changed the way people view
themselves and the opportunities that developed as a result. Romania is an East European country in transition. This means that among other things
that for Romanians things seem to change rapidly and sometimes abruptly in very short time,
often without much sense or logic. The result is that Romanians have had to learn how to adapt
very quickly and to learn new social and material skills almost every day. Romania and her
passage from socialism to capitalism can be a laboratory for anthropological research on some of
the disciplines central and emerging themes. Among these is how the elite is self constructed and
self selected over time. Another is the role that shifts in elites can play in a country’s and a
culture’s economic and cultural transitions. This research will also add to the literature on
Romania because while elite’s effects, both positive and negative have received much media
attention, the scholarly literature is almost silent in how elites are defined and emerged since
1989. The study of the elites will also bring a better understanding of the way people in
Romania behave, understand and accept each other. It will also help us to understand their goals
and how these got defined in this transition period in Romania’s history. Looking at how
Romanians think about (categorize) each other will also help the rest of the world understand
Romanian culture and society. This is important - especially for those inside and outside the
country who have a stake in Romania’s future. / Romania, past and present : a historical and social background of status in Romania -- Status in Romania 2011 : fieldwork results -- Ideas over how status is perceived in present Romania. / Department of Anthropology

K otázce vývoje oslovování v portugalštině - textová analýza / On the problem of adress forms in the Portuguese language - text analysisWagenknechtová, Hana January 2012 (has links)
The subject of the submitted thesis: "On the problem of address forms in the Portuguese language - text analysis" is to analyze the various address forms belonging to noun, pronoun and verb word classes. The evolution of these forms is emphasized; however, more approaches are considered since evaluating the diachronic one requires that the synchronic one is also examined. The goal is to look at the issue in several ways, taking into account the broader historical, political and sociolinguistic issues. The theoretical part is aimed at the general principles of addressing in terms of external, internal and historical linguistics and to the evolution of addressing in the Portuguese language. This includes Portuguese addressing terminology specifics, like the form of voc. The practical part describes the address forms in Brother Luís de Sousa, the historical Portuguese play (theatrical) from 1844 set in the beginning of 17th century, comparing these forms to authentic texts from that period. The conclusion presents the results of the text analyses and sums up the problems related to the issue of politeness in linguistics.

Forms of address : the case of University of LimpopoMalatji, Rebecca Ntshwaki January 2022 (has links)
Thesis(M.A.(Translation Studies and Linguistics)) -- University of Limpopo, 2022 / The aim of this study was to explore the forms of address and terms of reference used
by students to address their lecturers at the University of Limpopo. The study
discovered that, there were many ways in which forms of address and terms of
reference are used. The theory of pronouns of power and solidarity by Brown and
Gilman (1960) is implemented. Data are collected using face-to-face and telephone
interviews from a sample of fifteen (15) University of Limpopo postgraduate students
majoring in languages and linguistics in Turfloop, Limpopo, South Africa, however, ten
(10) participants satisfied the notion of data saturation. This is because the participants
were giving slightly similar information. The study found that there are two types of
forms of address which are used by the University of Limpopo students which are
Names and Titles. Addressing lecturers by first name, last name, nickname or title plus
first name symbolises closer relationship between student and lecturers whereas,
addressing lecturers by title only or title plus last name represents a limited relationship
between the lecturer and student. It is found that most of postgraduate students address
lecturers depending on the relationship existing between them and the lecturers. It has
been found that, the factors that influence choice of forms of address are setting,
respect, degree of intimacy, age and culture; and factors that influence the use of terms
of reference are setting and respect. The data obtained reveal that undergraduate
students, especially first years are not aware of the importance of forms of address. And
it has been found that students promote the idea of the implementation of a rule(s) or
policy regarding the importance of forms of address.
