Prispevek obravnava pomen slovenskega glagolnika v odnosu do glagolske vezljivosti in števnosti. V številnih analizah, mdr. v Bajee (1950), Žele (1993, 2001), Toporišič (2000) ter Vidovič Muha ...(2011), je pri glagolniku prepoznan osnovni pomen glagolskega dejanja, poleg tega pa še drugi besedotvorni pomeni, ki nastanejo z metonimičnim prenosom iz osnovnega pomena (najpogosteje posledica, proizvod, predmet ali učinek glagolskega dejanja). V prvem pomenu je glagolnik nešteven, v drugem pa je lahko tudi števen. V pričujočem članku pokažemo, da v slovenščini obstaja še dodatna kombinacija - glagolnik s pomenom glagolskega dejanja, ki je števen.
Članek obravnava predvidljivost spola pri samostalnikih v slovenščini z vidika primerjave med Slovensko slovnico (Toporišič 2000) in Corbettovim sistemom (Corbett 1991). V prvem delu je na primeru ...slovenščine predstavljen Corbettov algoritem razvrščanja samostalnikov v skupine spolov. V drugem delu je predstavljenih nekaj posebnosti v slovenščini, ki jih algoritem ne zajame (epiceni, hibridni, večspolski samostalniki).
Današnji čas je prinesel pomembne spremembe v načinu, kako komuniciramo drug z drugim. Tehnološki napredek in razmah družbenih medijev sta vplivala tako na informativne medije kot na sodobni ...politični prostor, kar ima pomembne posledice za politični govor. Vloga družbenih medijev v politični komunikaciji se je povečala, saj politiki čedalje bolj neposredno komunicirajo z javnostjo brez posredništva tradicionalnih medijev. Poleg tega je čedalje bolj pod vprašajem nevtralnost osrednjih medijev pri poročanju, saj so vedno bolj odvisni od oglaševanja in tako pod posrednim ali neposrednim vplivom različnih korporativnih ali državnih sponzorjev. Tako smo se znašli v času, ko vse več ljudi informacije pridobi v družbenih medijih, medtem ko so izrazi dezinformacija, lažne novice, postresničnost, sovražni govor in teorije zarote postali vsakdanji del govora. V novem javnem prostoru komunikacije se pogosto zgodi, da je to, kar kdo dojema kot teorijo zarote, za koga drugega resničnost, da so to, kar kdo dojema kot dejstva, za koga drugega lažne novice, in da je to, kar kdo dojema kot sovražni govor, za koga drugega svoboda govora.
Speech audiometry is one of the standard methods used to diagnose the type of hearing loss and to assess the communication function of the patient by determining the level of the patient’s ability to ...understand and repeat words presented to him or her in a hearing test. For this purpose, the Slovenian adaptation of the German tests developed by Hahlbrock (1953, 1960) – the Freiburg Monosyllabic Word Test and the Freiburg Number Test – are used in Slovenia (adapted in 1968 by Pompe). In this paper we focus on the Freiburg Monosyllabic Word Test for Slovenian, which has been criticized by patients as well as in the literature for the unequal difficulty and frequency of the words, with many of these being extremely rare or even obsolete. As part of the patient’s communication function is retrieving the meaning of individual words by guessing, the less frequent and consequently less familiar words do not contribute to reliable testing results. We therefore adapt the test by identifying and removing such words and supplement them with phonetically similar words to preserve the phonetic balance of the list. The words used for replacement are extracted from the written corpus of Slovenian Gigafida and the spoken corpus of Slovenian GOS, while the optimal combinations of words are established by using computational algorithms.
The paper deals with Slovenian deverbal nominalizations that denote events (gerunds in -je) and agents of events (agentive nominalizations in -ec), where special attention is paid to aspectual ...restrictions on the base. The paper tries to highlight the state of the aspect-related derivational rules in the contemporary Slovene language by analyzing data from the Slovene Literary Language Dictionary (Slovar slovenskega knjižnega jezika) and the corpus Gigafida.
We find ourselves in a time that has brought significant changes to the way we communicate. The technological progress and rise of social media have shaped both the news media and the contemporary ...political landscape, impacting and altering political discourse. As a result, the role of social media in political communication has become pervasive, and politicians now tend to communicate more directly with the public without the intermediary of traditional media. The position of the mainstream media as a neutral actor in reporting the news has also been tainted as the media has become increasingly dependent on advertising and thus more vulnerable to the pressures of corporate or state sponsors. Combined, we find ourselves situated in an era where more people are turning to social media for their news, while terms such as disinformation, fake news, post-truth, hate speech and conspiracy theory have become commonplace. In this new public square of communication, it often happens that one person’s conspiracy theory is another person’s truth, one person’s facts are another’s fake news, and one person’s hate speech is someone else’s freedom of speech.
It is a well-known fact that in English, syllabification of derived words differs according to the attaching affix, Chomsky and Halle (1968). In words such as hinder, meter, burgle the final sonorant ...of the roots /hindr/, /mitr/, /burgl/ is syllabic in word final position, following the rule of schwa insertion that makes a final sonorant pre ceded by a consonant syllabic. However, in related forms where these roots are fol lowed by a vowel-initial affix, such as hindrance, metric, burglar, the sonorants in ques tion are not syllabic, but are syllabified as onsets of the following syllable. Not all affixes beginning in a vowel have the same effect on syllabification. The participle forming affix -ing triggers the schwa-insertion regardless of its vowel-initial status, e.g. (hinder /hindgr/: hindrance /hindrans/, but hindering /hindgril/, */hindril/). Chomsky and Halle (1968) treat this property as inherent to the attaching affix; i.e. -ance in hin drance differs from -ing in hindering with respect to the triggering of the schwa-insertion rule. Using a finer-grained syntax of words, this paper derives the differences in pronunciation of the above mentioned words as following not exclusively from a diacritic on the affix, as in Chomsky and Halle (1968), but rather from the attachment position of the affix in the syntactic structure of the word.
This paper outlines an analysis of Slovenian deverbal external argument nominalizations in a syntactic approach. It is proposed that these nominals fall in three distinct classes according to the ...type of the Asp head found in the nominalization: i) episodic eventive nominals, ii) dispositional eventive nominals (both denoting animate agents) and iii) functional nominals (denoting instruments and humans in professional or temporary functions). The last type is newly introduced, as English/French-based approaches such as Alexiadou and Schäfer (2010) and Roy and Soare (2014) cannot account for the presence and properties of the genitive objects found in Slovenian functional nominals.
