Enhancing Acculturation via Phraseology

When speaking about the European heritage, we speak about culture, history, traditions, ceremonies shared in the European continent. Subject to analysis in phraseology are quotations of well-known persons, books, works, myths and traditions of international origin that we share in Europe. Acculturation of people is related with the concept of native culture of each person. To know the culture of the homeland is enevitable for understanding the culture of other nations. Moreover, the article deals with connections between culture and the language because they influence each other. After analysing proverbs and sayings of the Slovak and English language, it can be postulated that in most cases their target language for the Slovak as well as the English was Latin language. The existence of cross-linguistic absolute equivalents can result from the fact that idioms or in general, phraseologisms, including paremiological units, come from the same source and are cross-linguistically or even internationally shared, usually as translation loans or calques, which is also a case of some English and Slovak phraseologisms. Absolute equivalents are based on the identical imagery, symbolisms, and literally or almost literally corresponding lexical components of their basic forms.

Multi-Word Prepositional Expressions of the Type Preposition V, Noun, Preposition K in Technical Texts of Slovak National Corpus

Data are collected from the subcorpus prim-10.0-public-prf that comprises texts of the popular scientific style, scientific articles, studies, encyclopaedias. It is expected that the highest frequency of multi-word prepositional expressions would be in this subcorpus of technical texts because of informing; announcing new information, results; introducing new approaches and discussing. From the frequency list of multi-word prepositional expressions of the above mentioned patterns, 15 expressions were identified to fulfill criteria for multi-word prepositions, i.e. vo vzťahu k(u), v protiklade k(u), v prístupe k(u), v pomere k(u), v opozícii k(u), v kontraste k(u), v smere k(u), v relácii k, v kontrapozícii k, v protipóle k, v kontrapunkte k, v protismere k, v súvzťažnosti k, v nepomere k, v súvislosti k.

The influence of the mutual relationships between nations is predominantly visible in phraseology of each European language. The article deals with occurrence of certain multiword expressions, phraseologisms, e.g. collocations, idioms, idiomatic comparisons originated in common European source of the English origin, i.e. British and American phraseologisms, quotations of well-known British and American writers, philosophers, politicians, etc. The analysis focuses on the contrastive approach to the English and Slovak phraseology.

English and Slovak Concept Systems of Whole Numbers

The paper describes the structure of knowledge and models the conceptual systems of ordinal numbers in English and Slovak language. In the theory of terminology, the designation can be expressed by a term, a symbol, and an appellation. Worth noticing is the fact that in the case of mathematical sciences, in algebra, both two types of designations are used, i.e., by a term and predominantly by a symbol. Mathematical science is precise and systemic. That is the reason why designation by the symbol is largely used in practice. An additional asset is that this type of designation is understandable across almost all languages and has an international character. It avoids ambiguation and misunderstandings. Moreover, the symbol saves time and is more economical. The paper focuses on bilingual conceptual systems of ordinal numbers. Conceptual systems facilitate understanding of relationships between the concepts, help to write definitions, and facilitate comparative analysis. Subject to bilingual conceptual and terminological analysis is also the decimal positional numeral system, the decimal referring to the use of 10 symbols 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 to construct all numbers. The comparative analysis contrasts conceptual systems of ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundred thousands, and millions in the English and Slovak language. The bilingual conceptual system can be represented by symbols, as well as by the terms in both languages. The conceptual system represents the hierarchy between the concepts and superordinate and subordinate relationships. Such hierarchical attitude is described in terminology as a generic and partitive relationship. In terminology research, the following methods have been used: observation, excerption, conceptual analysis, term analysis, comparative analysis of bilingual conceptual systems, classification of ordinal numbers, and synthesis of data. As a result of contrastive terminology work, (excerption, harmonisation, and terminography), English and Slovak bilingual conceptual systems of ordinal numbers have been modelled and displayed in the model of formal and graphical representation of bilingual conceptual systems of ordinal numbers. Systems have shown similarities and differences between the mathematical concepts of both languages. In the case of terminography, the bilingual conceptual systems and terminology records have been ready for multiple uses, for example, glossary, dictionary, and database …). The English language belongs to analytical languages, the Slovak language to synthetical languages. Due to different language types, differences in the concepts are present. In the conclusion of contrastive terminological research in the conceptual systems, there are some findings and recommendations for practice. Findings help to model concept structures based on specialised knowledge of the field and clarify the relations between concepts. The conceptual system facilitates the comparative analysis of concepts and designations across languages and helps specialists in writing the definitions.

The preposition OF belongs among the most frequent prepositions in the English language. The study is based on comparisons of English and Czech sentences containing verbs and prepositions that are followed by the object. Material was taken from the electronic data bank Prague Czech-English Dependency Treebank 2.0. The structures were examined and analyzed from morphological, syntactical and semantic points of view. The aim of the study is to create English-Czech verbal prepositional counterparts; to create verbal prepositional groups on the grounds of the similar semantic, syntactic features; to identify the features that are the same for each verb group and generalize them; to identify trends and tendencies for verbs when they collocate with a certain preposition. The findings are presented in several charts and tables.

Complex terms are avoided in order to prepare a detailed lexico-grammatical analysis. The research examines the term formation within the word class of nouns. Origins of the English and Slovak terms are analysed, described and compared. Latin and Greek languages are languages of science for the English language. The original languages of terms in both languages. Furthemore, Slovak terminological equivalents are compared with the English ones in term preference the Latin/Greek term or the native term if exists. According to term formation processes, the following suffixes representing bound morphemes are analysed: -er, -or, -ion. The terms formed by affixation using the selected suffixes are compared with the Slovak counterparts in terminology of mathematics. Terms are analysed according to principles for term formation. The following principles should be followed in the formation of terms and appellations,...

At first we define the terms hovorovosť (colloquiality) (also in relation to the term hovorenosť (spokenness)) and hovorový (colloquial). Since the point was the research of "living language"-represented by field of journalism-our source material were journalistic texts from the database of the Slovak National Corpus. The number of occurrence of colloquial lexical units was recorded according to their absolute frequency and the results were categorized and interpreted. The most frequented means of expression were verified in current lexicographic processing and the changes of the indicator of colloquiality was studied. With style parameters in background, we evaluated the markedness of the vocabulary of analyzed journalistic texts.

The article primarily deals with the influence of the French language from the phraseological point of view. One way of forming idioms in the English language is borrow original phrases from another language. The borrowings of the second type, i.e. translated borrowings from another languages are not included in the analysis. Specific idioms are chosen from the idiomatic dictionary Cambridge International Dictionary of Idioms. Collins Concise Dictionary was consulted to check the origin of the idioms or words; it also contains the period of tranfer of an idiom into the English language. The French idiomatic borrowings are analysed from the point of the lexico-grammatical structure of the idioms, i.e. formal criteria, the classification of the idioms according to phrasal and sentence idioms. Each idiom is analysed individually. The target is to reveal the degree of influence of the French language on the English language within the field of French idiomatic borrowings based on the historical development of the English language. Subject to analysis is an orthographic and morphological level. Idioms are classified into groups on the basis of identical morphological patterns. It is a tool help to understand the patterns of French idiomatic borrowings for people, who do not know the French language. Furthermore, these patterns influences of the French language on the English language and help distinguish the degree of influence of the French language upon the English language.
