Estudio sincrónico y contrastivo sobre el yeísmo en Gandía: enfoque variacionista y sociolingüístico - Moratal Canales, Vicente
El presente artículo pretende ser una aproximación actual a la situación
y evolución del yeísmo entre los hablantes monolingües y bilingües de la
ciudad valenciana de Gandía. Para ello el estudio se ha enfocado en tres
perspectivas diferentes: la primera consiste en un registro de la producción
de los informantes para comprobar fonéticamente si realizan distinción o
neutralizan. La segunda, la de valoración, es de corte psicolingüístico ya
que consiste en averiguar, tras la exposición oral de palabras inventadas, si
agrada o no a los informantes la dicción y, por último, la perspectiva de la
percepción, donde los informantes han de escuchar una serie de palabras
y detectar si...

Variation in Balkan Judeo-Spanish final clauses - Romero, Rey
Judeo-Spanish is the language of Sephardic Jewry, taken to Ottoman territories
in the Balkans after their expulsion from the Iberian Peninsula in
the late fifteenth century. This study analyzes variation in subordinate final
clauses in two varieties of Balkan Judeo-Spanish: Monastir and Salonika.
Both varieties present a similar variation omitting the preposition para to introduce
a subordinate final clause. However, variation appears to be higher
in the Monastir dialect. I argue that linguistic factors (subjunctive usage, the
subordinating conjunction ke) and social-historical causes (language shift,
language endangerment) can account for the distribution of the competing
variants in Balkan Judeo-Spanish.

Resultative Expressions in Romanian - Farkas, Imola Ágnes
The aim of this paper is two-fold. On the one hand, it proposes to reconsider
Romanian resultative constructions by examining lexicalized (idiomatic)
expressions of the type a bate m¢ar beat flat//beat as soft/red as an
apple or a freca lun¢a/oglind¢a scrub clean/shiny//scrub as clean/shiny as the
moon/mirror which have not been the object of intense research and which
have largely been ignored from several discussions on Romanian resultatives.
The focus is on semantic, aspectual, syntactic and l-syntactic pieces
of evidence which are all meant to show that these and similar structures
are resultative constructions. On the other hand, without diminishing or
abolishing the systematic diference that exists between Germanic...

A tradução jurídica no contexto da certificação : requisitos, estratégias e legitimidade do tradutor - Forbes, Joana Cabral César Pereira
A certificação da tradução de documentos não é conferida, por si só, ao tradutor que apresente competências linguísticas e formação superior na área e está, na prática, ancorada aos profissionais de direito, aos quais a lei admitiu competências linguísticas de supervisão dos processos tradutivos. Ao enquadrar a Tradução Jurídica nos Estudos de Tradução, a presente investigação realiza uma análise crítico-reflexiva sobre o processo tradutivo com base em três vertentes: descrição da legislação em vigor no âmbito da certificação de traduções e suas disparidades face à realidade; análise de obstáculos linguístico-funcionais que possam surgir nas diversas modalidades de Tradução Jurídica e,...

Perfecto, antiperfecto, evidencial y admirativo: decir un evento para comunicar dos - Soto, Guillermo; Universidad de Chile; Hasler, Felipe; Consejo Nacional de Investigaciones Científicas y Técnicas de Argentina y Universidad de Chile
Desde la lingüística histórica, la tipológica y la de contacto, se han destacado las relaciones existentes entre las categorías de perfecto, evidencial y admirativo. En el presente trabajo, proponemos que estas relaciones se fundan en una base semántico-pragmática común a las tres, compartida también con la de antiperfecto. En todas ellas, junto con explicitar una eventualidad se introduce en el discurso otra, estrechamente vinculada al hablante. Este valor común está a la base de la subjetividad y el componente epistémico que típicamente presentan las categorías en estudio. La propuesta se ilustra con casos del español, el mapudungun, el español en...

Unidades fraseológicas con verbos de movimiento. Propuesta para un diccionario - González, Jacinto; Universidad Autónoma de Madrid; Serradilla, Ana; Universidad Autónoma de Madrid
La manera como se confeccionan los diccionarios se ha visto afectada en gran medida en los últimos años por cuestiones diversas, como la irrupción de las nuevas tecnologías en las sociedades actuales o la voluntad decidida de algunos lexicógrafos de aplicar a aquellas obras de consulta, en la medida de lo posible, los relevantes avances que se han producido en los últimos años en el ámbito de la Lingüística. En esta investigación se proponen fórmulas con que aprovechar las ventajas que reportan ambos aspectos en lo que se refiere a la mejora de las técnicas lexicográficas, a partir de un...

Evidencialidad y validación en los pretéritos del español andino ecuatoriano - Pfänder, Stefan; Albert-Ludwigs-Universität Freiburg; Palacios, Azucena; Universidad Autónoma de Madrid
A partir de una muestra de entrevistas lingüísticas y metalingüísticas de hablantes de la sierra ecuatoriana, tanto en Ecuador como en España (migrantes residentes en Madrid), el artículo presenta un estudio en profundidad de un cambio inducido por contacto en español andino. Los bilingües de quechua y español asumen que el español debería mostrar una oposición formal de evidencialidad frente a no evidencialidad, obligatoria en quechua. En un proceso a largo plazo etiquetado como cambio indirecto inducido por contacto, las formas de pretérito simple y compuesto son recategorizadas como evidencialidad vs. no evidencialidad. Un análisis sistemático detallado de las diversas...

Genetic characterization of northeastern Italian population isolates in the context of broader European genetic diversity - Esko, Tõnu; Mezzavilla, Massimo; Nelis, Mari; Borel, Christelle; Debniak, Tadeusz; Jakkula, Eveliina; Julia, Antonio; Karachanak, Sena; Khrunin, Andrey; Kisfali, Peter; Krulisova, Veronika; Aušrelé Kučinskiené, Zita; Rehnström, Karola; Traglia, Michela; Nikitina-Zake, Liene; Zimprich, Fritz; Antonarakis, Stylianos E; Estivill, Xavier; Glavač, Damjan; Gut, Ivo; Klovins, Janis; Krawczak, Michael; Kučinskas, Vaidutis; Lathrop, Mark; Macek, Milan; Marsal, Sara; Meitinger, Thomas; Melegh, Béla; Limborska, Svetlana; Lubinski, Jan; Paolotie, Aarno; Schreiber, Stefan; Toncheva, Draga; Toniolo, Daniela; Wichmann, H-Erich; Zimprich, Alexander; Metspalu, Mait; Gasparini, Paolo; Metspalu, Andres; D'Adamo, Pio
Population genetic studies on European populations have highlighted Italy as one of genetically most diverse regions. This is possibly due to the country's complex demographic history and large variability in terrain throughout the territory. This is the reason why Italy is enriched for population isolates, Sardinia being the best-known example. As the population isolates have a great potential in disease-causing genetic variants identification, we aimed to genetically characterize a region from northeastern Italy, which is known for isolated communities. Total of 1310 samples, collected from six geographically isolated villages, were genotyped at >145 000 single-nucleotide polymorphism positions. Newly genotyped data were...

Thinking ahead or not? Natural aging and anticipation during reading - DeLong, Katherine A.; Groppe, David M.; Urbach, Thomas P.; Kutas, Marta
Despite growing evidence of young adults neurally pre-activating word features during sentence comprehension, less clear is the degree to which this generalizes to older adults. Using ERPs, we tested for linguistic prediction in younger and older readers by means of indefinite articles (a’s and an’s) preceding more and less probable noun continuations. Although both groups exhibited cloze probability-graded noun N400s, only the young showed significant article effects, indicating probabilistic sensitivity to the phonology of anticipated upcoming nouns. Additionally, both age groups exhibited prolonged increased frontal positivities to less probable nouns, although in older adults this effect was prominent only in...

Linguistic Correlates of Social Anxiety Disorder - Hofmann, Stefan G.; Moore, Philippa M.; Gutner, Cassidy; Weeks, Justin W.
The goal of this study was to examine the linguistic correlates of social anxiety disorder (SAD). Twenty-four individuals with SAD (8 of them with a generalized subtype) and 21 nonanxious controls were asked to give speeches in front of an audience. The transcribed speeches were examined for the frequency of negations, I-statements, we-statements, negative emotion words, and positive emotion words. During their speech, individuals with either SAD subtype used positive emotion words more often than controls. No significant differences were observed in the other linguistic categories. These results are discussed in the context of evolutionary and cognitive perspectives of SAD.

The Importance of Considering all Attributes of Memory in Behavioral Endophenotyping of Mouse Models of Genetic Disease - Hunsaker, Michael R.
To overcome difficulties in evaluating cognitive function in mouse models of genetic disorders, it is critical to take into account the background strain of the mouse and reported phenotypes in the clinical population being studied. Recent studies have evaluated cognitive function across a number of background strains and found that spatial memory assayed by the water maze and contextual fear conditioning often does not provide optimal results. The logical extension to these results is to emphasize not only spatial, but all attributes or domains of memory function in behavioral phenotyping experiments. A careful evaluation of spatial, temporal, sensory/perceptual, affective, response,...

System-Level Change in Cultural and Linguistic Competence (CLC): How Changes in CLC are Related to Service Experience Outcomes in Systems of Care - Barksdale, Crystal L.; Ottley, Phyllis Gyamfi; Stephens, Robert; Gebreselassie, Tesfayi; Fua, Imogen; Azur, Melissa; Walrath-Greene, Christine
As US demographic trends shift toward more diversity, it becomes increasingly necessary to address differential needs of diverse groups of youth in mental health service systems. Cultural and linguistic competence (CLC) is essential to providing the most appropriate mental health services to youth and their families. The successful implementation of CLC often begins at the system level. Though various factors may affect change and system-level factors set the tone for broad acceptance of CLC within systems, there is limited empirical evidence linking culturally competent practices to outcomes. The purpose of the present study was to examine system-level CLC changes over...

Algunas direcciones de la literatura comparada en los comienzos del nuevo milenio - Elgue Martini, Cristina
En las últimas décadas del Siglo XX, el impacto de los nuevos paradigmas epistemológicos y el surgimiento de nuevos campos disciplinares y teorías literarias produjeron la desestructuración de los sistemas jerárquicos que en la teoría y práctica de la literatura comparada habían privilegiado la producción literaria de las culturas centrales. El nuevo comparatismo fue entendido entonces como diálogo de culturas y factor de conocimiento y convivialidad. Entrado el Siglo XXI, quiero detenerme en tres direcciones del comparatismo. Una que apunta a la profundización del enfoque interdisciplinario, una segunda que muestra un renovado retorno a la crítica temática para explorar comparativamente...
