Desubjectivizing discourse through the use of the periphrasis haber que + infinitive in Spanish
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022-07-28) Serrano, María José; Agencia Estatal de Investigación; Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación
[EN] The present investigation analyzes the use of a construction traditionally described as impersonal: the periphrasis haber que + infinitive. This is a variable phenomenon in Spanish grammar studied as a meaningful choice based on the cognitive conceptualization of salience. The construction conveys a meaning of duty, obligation, recommendation or convenience by which the speaker accepts the situation described as unavoidable. Its use is analyzed in the texts of the Corpus Interaccional del Español, which comprises a wide range of genres and communicative situations. The hypothesis posed is that the meaning conveyed by haber que + infinitive contributes to the shaping of a communicative style based on the desubjectivity cognitive dimension.
Advances in the automatic lemmatization of Old English: class V strong verbs (L-Y)
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022-07-28) Torre Alonso, Roberto; Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades
[EN] The grammatical description of Old English lacks complete and systematic lemmatization, which hinders Natural Language Processing studies in this language, as they strongly rely on the existence of large, annotated corpora. Moreover, the inflectional features of Old English preclude token-based automatic lemmatization. Therefore, specifically goal-oriented applications must be developed to account for the automatic lemmatization of specific variable categories. This article designs an automatic lemmatizer within the framework of Morphological Generation to address the type-based lemmatization of Old English class V strong verbs (L-Y). The lemmatizer is implemented with rules that account for inflectional, derivational and morphophonological variation. The generated forms are compared with the most relevant corpora of Old English for validation before being assigned a lemma. The lemmatizer is successful in supplying form-lemma associations not yet accounted for in the literature, and in identifying mismatches and areas for manual revision.
Análisis de adjetivos atributivos en textos escritos de ajedrez
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022-07-28) Quintero Ramírez, Sara
[EN] The aim of this article is to identify the types of adjectives with attributive function used in chess texts. Likewise, weintend to determine the position these adjectives display according to the noun they modify in a corpus of twelve texts from different sections and issues of the magazine Peón de Rey. In this study, we distinguish the diversity of adjectives used with attributive function in the texts of the magazine and determine their respective types according to their position in relation to the noun, the type of properties assigned, as well as the intensity of the concept mentioned. With this article we intend to contribute to studies on sports discourse, especially those focused on intellectually predominant sports disciplines.
The Effect of Task Modality in Heritage Bilingualism Research
(Universitat Politècnica de València, 2022-07-28) Iranzo, Vicente
[EN] Knowledge of the effects of task design features on linguistic performance is essential to obtain the right conclusions in linguistic research. Several studies have explored the effects of task modality in second language learners (Johnson, 1992; Murphy, 1997; Shiu, Yalçin, & Spada, 2018). These studies showed that L2 learners perform better when the stimulus is presented in written form compared to aural form. However, the effect of task modality in linguistic performance is an area that needs exploration in the field of heritage bilingualism research (Jegerski, 2018). Thus, the purpose of this study is to determine the effects of task modality on linguistic performance in heritage bilinguals. Participants in this study included 63 heritage bilinguals divided into high- and low-proficiency groups. All participants completed a proficiency test, a language background questionnaire, an aural speeded acceptability judgment task, and a written speeded acceptability judgment task. The statistical analysis revealed a significant effect of task modality on linguistic performance. High-proficiency heritage bilinguals performed significantly better (i.e., shorter reaction times) when the stimuli were presented in aural form. The results of this study contribute to the existing body on research methods in linguistic and specifically, to the effects that design features may have on linguistic performance in heritage bilinguals.
