Ord som vandrat : En studie över lågtyska lånord i svenska dialekter
- 1999
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Regional Swedish dialects contain a number of Low German loanwords that are not found in Standard Swedish. It is the aim of this dissertation to identify such words, to describe them with special reference to their semantic properties, and to investigate their history in the Swedish language.The investigation is based on data collected from dialect dictionaries and etymological studies. A thorough sifting of the material from an etymological point of view resulted in the establishment of a corpus of 350 words. These words are presented in alphabetical order, in the form of entries giving detailed information on dialectal evidence as well as providing examples from earlier periods in the history of Swedish, the other Scandinavian languages, and Middle and Early Modern Low German.The corpus is studied from two aspects. Firstly, the semantic range of the dialectal loanwords is compared with the Low German loanword inventory in the standard language. Not surprisingly, it appears that there are marked differences in that the dialect material indicates another semantic range. The number of emotive words is striking, as is also the number of words relating to everyday life. Secondly, a search is made for the individual words in dictionaries of early Swedish written language. It then appears that most of the loanwords included in the corpus were used in the written language in earlier periods, in some cases as early as the Middle Ages, and have become dialectal only in fairly recent times. This seems to indicate that, in addition to spatial diffusion, there has been a movement from standard language to regional dialect.

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis presents a cognitive questionnaire-based study on the interpretation of compounds. The analysis is based on the interpretations from 190 Swedish-speaking students in upper secondary schools. The overall aim is to test the assumption of usage-based approaches that linguistic phenomena become entrenched in the mind of the speaker as a result of repetition. To be able to analyse such entrenchment effects both established compounds and novel compounds with many potential meanings are included, and interpretations from speakers with various exposure time to Swedish (L1 and L2 speakers) are analysed. The result of this study indicates that the meaning potentials of compounds are evaluated only when necessary. If the compound is entrenched as a unit, no analysis is needed. If the compound is unfamiliar to the language user, he/she makes use of an entrenched linguistic template, i.e. a specific (similar) compound or a low-level or higher-level schema, as an analogy base in the interpretation. This study confirms that the frequency of the compound and the user’s exposure time to Swedish are factors of great impact: frequent compounds result in more concordant interpretations than less frequent ones, and L1 speakers are more concordant in their interpretations than L2 speakers. The discrepancy between the speaker groups (L1 and L2) concerning established compounds is a result of entrenchment differences of these specific compounds (due to various exposure time to Swedish), whereas the discrepancy concerning the interpretation of novel compounds reflects various degrees of entrenchment of linguistic templates that can serve as analogy bases. This study further indicates that the right-headedness pattern is not as established for Swedish compounds as previously assumed. This is especially true for adjectival compounds.
