Terminologia do inglês da Ciência da Computação e seus desdobramentos em cursos técnicos e tecnológicos de Informática dos Institutos FederaisMonzon, Andrea Jessica Borges January 2017 (has links)
Esta tese parte do exame de convencionalidades terminológicas e de colocações especializadas em um corpus de artigos científicos em inglês da área de Ciência da Computação com cerca de 400 mil palavras/tokens. Em seguida, investiga os desdobramentos pedagógicos desses elementos em um contexto de ensino de Inglês Instrumental em cursos técnicos e tecnológicos da área de Informática/Computação da Rede Federal de Educação Profissional do Brasil. O levantamento e análise de padrões léxico-terminológicos do corpus foi realizado com apoio computacional e de acordo com os aportes da Linguística de Corpus e da Teoria Comunicativa da Terminologia. Uma vez verificados a relevância terminológica e o potencial pedagógico das ocorrências de terminologias e de colocações no corpus reunido, são feitas propostas de apoio terminológico-pedagógico para o ensino de leitura de artigos científicos em inglês, o que inclui a proposta de desenho básico de um aplicativo educacional para acesso em smartphones e tablets. A pesquisa também levanta as necessidades terminológicas e pedagógicas dos alunos envolvidos no contexto educacional sob estudo, evidenciando diferenças entre os estudantes de cursos técnicos e de cursos tecnológicos. Por fim, o trabalho conclui ser possível e produtivo levar dados de descrição terminológica e de descrição de padrões de um corpus para um cenário didático-pedagógico de Inglês Instrumental na Educação Profissional, desde que isso seja balizado por uma série de aportes teóricos, dos estudos de Terminologia aos estudos sobre o Ensino de línguas estrangeiras. / This thesis sets off on examining terminological conventionalities and specialized collocations in a research article corpus in English in the Computer Science area containing around 400 thousand words/tokens. Then, we investigate the pedagogical ramifications of these elements in a context of English for Specific Purposes courses in the area of Informatics/Computer Science in the Federal Institutions of Professional Education in Brazil. The survey and analysis of lexical-terminological patterns from the corpus was performed with computational support, and according to Corpus Linguistics as well as Communicative Theory of Terminology framework. Once we verified the terminological relevance and pedagogical potential of the terminological occurrences and collocations in the corpus compiled, we proposed terminological-pedagogical aid for English research article reading, which includes a proposal of basic design of an educational app for smartphones and tablets access. This research also examines terminological and pedagogical needs involved in this educational context, highlighting differences between students in technical courses and technological courses. Overall, this investigation has found possible and productive to take terminological description data as well as pattern descriptions from a corpus to a didactic-pedagogical scenario of ESP in Professional Education, once this is settled by a range of theoretical considerations from Terminology studies to Foreign Language Teaching studies.

[en] THE CORPUS NEVER LIES: ON THE IDENTIFICATION AND USE OF MULTIWORD EXPRESSIONS / [pt] O CÓRPUS NÃO MENTE JAMAIS: SOBRE A IDENTIFICAÇÃO E USO DE COMBINAÇÕES MULTIVOCABULARES DO TIPO VERBO MAIS SINTAGMA NOMINALMILENA DE UZEDA GARRAO 22 August 2006 (has links)
[pt] Muitos estudos recentes sobre a identificação e uso de
combinações
multivocabulares (CMs) adotam uma perspectiva
representacionista do
significado da palavra. Este estudo propõe que é muito
mais interessante
identificar as CMs por um olhar não-representacionista. A
metodologia proposta
foi testada em CMs do tipo V+SN, um padrão bastante
freqüente no português do
Brasil (PB). Trata-se de uma análise estatística com base
em córpus que pode ser
resumida em três etapas: 1) córpus robusto do PB como base
de análise, 2)
aplicação de um teste estatístico ao córpus, a saber,
teste de Logaritmo de
Verossimilhança (Banerjee e Pedersen, 2003), para detecção
das CMs mais
freqüentes com padrão V+SN (como tomar café) e exclusão de
co-ocorrências
sintáticas aleatórias dos mesmos itens lexicais, 3)
aplicação de Medidas de
Similaridade (Baeza-Yates e Ribeiro-Neto, 1999) entre
todos os parágrafos
contendo uma certa CM (por exemplo, fazer campanha) e
todos os parágrafos
contendo o substantivo fora da CM (campanha). Esta última
etapa foi utilizada
para avaliar o grau de composicionalidade da CM. Pôde-se
concluir que quanto
maior a similaridade entre os parágrafos contendo a CM e
os parágrafos contendo
o substantivo fora da expressão, maior será o grau de
composicionalidade da CM.
Por essa razão, este estudo tem um impacto tanto teórico
quanto prático para a
semântica. / [en] A considerable amount of recent researches on defining
multi-word
expressions´ (MWE) phenomenon has an underlying
representational framework
of word meaning. In this study we claim that it is much
more interesting to view
MWE from a non-representational perspective. By choosing
this path, we avoid
the time-consuming and controversial human intuitions to
MWE identification
and definition. Our methodology was tested on Brazilian
Portuguese verbal
phrases of V+NP pattern. It is a statistically-based
corpus analysis which could be
summed up as the following three sequent steps: 1) robust
linguistic corpora as
output, 2) application of a probabilistic test to the
corpora, namely Log Likelihood
test (Banerjee and Pedersen, 2003), in order to spot the
Portuguese MWEs of V+NP
pattern (such as tomar café) and disregard casual
syntactic and not otherwise
motivated co-occurrences of the same lexical items, 3)
application of Similarity
Measures (Baeza-Yates and Ribeiro-Neto, 1999) between all
the paragraphs
containing a certain MWE and all the paragraphs containing
its separate noun.
This latter step is crucial to assess the MWE
compositionality level. We conclude
that the higher are the similarity measures between the
MWE (such as fazer
campanha) and its separate noun (campanha), the more
compositional will be the
MWE. Therefore, we believe that this work has both a
practical and a theoretical
impact to semantics.

Maximizers - completely complex adverbs : A corpus study of the maximizer usage in American and Swedish journalists' writing in EnglishEriksson, Sanna January 2014 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the possible differences in the way American and Swedish journalists writing in English use maximizers, i.e. intensifying adverbs. In order to fulfill the purpose, information about how maximizers are used in two different sub-corpora, namely SWENC (The Swedish-English Corpus) and TIME (Time Corpus of American English) is collected. The data in SWENC has been collected from various websites where the crucial criterion was that the authors of the articles must have Swedish as their first language. The data from TIME has been collected from Time Magazine’s online corpora which is freely available on the Internet. The results show that there are some differences in the way Swedes and Americans use maximizers. The number of tokens for each maximizer does not differ to a great extent between the two corpora. However, there are larger deviances in the use of collocations and semantic prosody. The conclusion drawn from this is that there are indeed some differences in how American and Swedish journalists writing in English use maximizers, although they are not very many.

The use of arise and rise in present-day British & American English : A corpus based analysis of two verbsLakaw, Alexander January 2007 (has links)
This corpus based investigation deals with the present-day usage of and the semantic relation between the two verbs rise and arise. Concordance lines containing various forms of the two verbs in question have been taken from six different (sub)corpora and were examined in view of their collocational and semantic characteristics. The basic aims were to investigate the nowadays status of the verbs rise and arise and whether they (still) can be regarded as synonyms. The results show that both verbs can sometimes be used synonymously. Their general semantic relation appeared to be near-synonymy. Furthermore, both verbs seem to have developed a semantic specialisation, which is regarded a counterargument for the thesis that the verb arise is on the verge of dying out.

“Abseits ist, wenn der Schiedsrichter pfeift“ : Probleme beim Übersetzen der Fußballterminologie eines deutschen Regeltextes ins SchwedischeEngström, Sara January 2015 (has links)
The purpose of this essay is to investigate problems that arise when translating a German football text into Swedish. The qualitative study focuses on football terminology, as this is central to the language of football. Special attention was paid to synonymous terms, collocations, Anglicisms, metaphors, and metonymies. Various parallel texts and football dictionaries were consulted during the translation. Also, Koller's (2011) model of translation correspondences was used in order to systematize the findings. The analysis showed that when dealing with synonymous terms, different kinds of translation problems occurred due to correspondence type. For example, in cases where source text terms had only one correspondence in the target language, the target text inevitably became more repetitive than the source text. On the contrary, when a source-text term had several correspondences, many translation alternatives needed to be considered in order to choose the appropriate term in the specific target-text context. Concerning the translation of collocations, the analysis showed that interference may pose a problem even when translating into one's native language. As for the translation of Anglicisms, most of them could not be preserved in the target text, and, thus, needed to be replaced by existing Swedish equivalents. This occasionally turned out to be problematic, for instance when no direct equivalent could be found in the target language. On the contrary, many of the terms based on metaphorical concepts such as FOOTBALL IS WAR could be preserved, indicating that German and Swedish football language use this concept to a similar extent.

Irish loanwords in English varietiesFristedt, Emma January 2015 (has links)
This essay will discuss and research the width and frequency of Irish loanwords in contemporary English varieties. The meanings, uses, differences, similarities and collocations of selected words will be discussed and analyzed in order to find answers to the research questions asked. The methods used are quantitative and qualitative research methods. The quantitative method will measure the frequency of the selected words in each of the selected varieties and the qualitative method will discuss the meanings and uses of the words in the different varieties. Each word has its own section which discuss meanings, developments and instances in which the words can be found in the different varieties. These sections are summarized at the end of the essay and the conclusion states that Irish loanwords in contemporary English varieties are not greatly widespread compared to the frequency of the same words in Irish English. A few of the words have been able to develop their meaning and use through time, but most instances of the words show the original meaning and use.

Absolutely amplified : A corpus study of amplifiers, their usage and collocations in two different corporaWillstedt, Alexander January 2014 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to investigate the usage and frequencies of amplifiers in the English language and whether there are differences in usage, collocations and in gender. The material used is the Swedish-English Corpus (SWENC), a collection of Swedish native speaking journalists writing in English, and the Corpus of American Soaps (SOAP), a collection of American soap opera scripts. The size of the two corpora is quite different and therefore the number of tokens varies largely, but by using normalization, the frequencies have been compared. The results show differences in frequency and collocations between the different corpora and the conclusion drawn from this study is that there in fact are some amplifier differences when it comes to gender and collocations. KEYWORDS: adverbs, amplifiers, collocations, corpus-studies, gendered language, linguistics, normalization

Monokolokabilní slova v němčině. Reflexe / Monocollocable Words in German. A reflection.Veretelnyk, Iegor January 2017 (has links)
The work concerns the study of limited collocational paradigms in modern German. It is based on the corpus cooccurrence analysis and aims at the clearing up of the phenomenon of the so- called monocollocability. After the undertaken analyses and reflections there came a conclusion that corroborated the original point of view, namely, that the so-called monocollocability presents a multiplex phenomenon, where a metaphore of centre and periphery seems to be appropriate. In the analyses there occur semantically neutral word, inherently bound on certain collocated for formal reasons.

Die Formelhaftigkeit von Strafurteilen : Eine schwedisch-deutsche Übersetzungsstudie zu rechtssprachlichen Kollokationen / The formulaicity of criminal judgments : A German-Swedish translation study on legal collocationsPhilipp-Rampa, Tina January 2021 (has links)
This essay deals with the formulaic nature of court judgments in terms of language rather than content and structure. It focuses on legal collocations and the problems that may arise in translation from Swedish to German. In particular, the introductory formula of Austrian court decisions is discussed in comparison to the Swedish criminal judgment, which the essay is based on. However, other legal collocations are also examined. A qualitative legal linguistic analysis examines how these collocations are translated between two legal systems of two states. Furthermore, the question of which translation options are available and where the sources of errors regarding the translation are, is discussed. At the end a comparison of the collocations of the source text and that of the target text should clarify their similarities or differences. It is expected that there is a tendency that collocation based in the law (e.g. vållande till annans död) cannot be translated literally contrary to ordinary legal collocations (e.g. straffrättsliga ansvar). The former needs a cultural transfer in order to be perceived as equivalent by the reader of the target text.

Sur le chemin de l'équivalence : Stratégies de traduction de textes économiquesMattsson, Anna Gunilla January 2020 (has links)
The focus of this paper has been to study the strategies that can be applied to translation of economic texts from French to Swedish. The study has been carried out on two journalistic texts written by the Swiss journalist Julie Zaugg. It includes a presentation of the characteristic traits of the economic genre as to terminology, semantic fields and collocational chains in combination with a presentation of the author’s personal style. The intention was to study how to combine different strategies in order to obtain a result as close to equivalence as possible.
