The aim of this article is to document the outcomes of language contact between Yucatecan Maya and Mexican Spanish. In order to do so, two theories are applied to newly assembled data, gathered during a field study in 2019 in YucaThe aim of this article is to document the outcomes of language contact between Yucatecan Maya and Mexican Spanish. In order to do so, two theories are applied to newly assembled data, gathered during a field study in 2019 in Yucatán: The Interface Hypothesis (Sorace 2011) and Heine/Kuteva’s contact-induced grammaticalization (2003). The village Xocén in which the field study was conducted is characterized by monolingualism in Maya as well as bilingualism in Spanish and Maya. Data was collected to investigate the influence of Spanish on Mayan morphology, especially on the use of the subjunctive. I propose that the data can best be explained by combining the Interface Hypothesis with Heine/Kutevas’s (2003) approach.tán: The Interface Hypothesis (Sorace 2011) and Heine/Kuteva’s cThe aim of this article is to document the outcomes of language contact between Yucatecan Maya and Mexican Spanish.

Internationalismen im Grundwortschatz: Untersuchungen zur romanistischen Mehrsprachigkeitsdidaktik
(2012)
In dieser Arbeit wird an Hand eines Häufigkeitswörterbuches des Italienischen (Lessico di frequenza dell’italiano parlato von De Mauro et al. 1993) untersucht, wie sich Kenntnisse anderer Sprachen, des Deutschen, Englischen und Französischen und/oder Spanischen, auf das Verstehen und Lernen von 2500 der häufigsten Wörter des Italienischen auswirken. Damit soll ein Beitrag geleistet werden zur mehrsprachigkeitsdidaktischen Fragestellung, wie viele Wörter des italienischen Grundwortschatzes aus anderen Sprachen schon bekannt sind und wie viele noch gelernt werden müssen, was mit konkreten Zahlen belegt werden soll.
Work is seen by many thinkers as the fundamental dimension of man`s existence on earth. Through work, he provides his basic necessities on earth and co-operate with God in the work of creation.
He received this mandate to work from the very beginning of creation by God. In carrying out this mandate, man every human being reflects the very action of the creator of the Universe.
God worked and intended that man who is created in His image and likeness continues the work of creation by working.
Even though Man suffers and sweats through work and yet, in spite of all this toil-perhaps in a sense because of it – work is a good thing for man. It is not only good in the sense that it is useful or something to enjoy; it is also good as being something worthy, that is to say something that corresponds to man's dignity that expresses this dignity and increases it.
This project examines man as a creature called to work and born into work. It is true that through work, man provides himself and his family with the basic necessities of life and everyday needs for the reason he charges wages for his sweat. Work goes beyond and should exceed the boundaries of the material benefit that comes out of it to the satisfaction and fulfilment for the very purpose we should work. The modern society has attached so much importance to money and material possession, the question then is how do we go along working in the spirit of improvement and renewal of the earth? The modern man understands work only as a means of making his daily bread. For this reason, he engages himself in an occupation that he has little or no interest in. He ends up quarrelling everyday with the people that he or she is supposed to serve through work. The result is low work output and waste of talents and the society loses an opportunity for improvement as every creature is supposed to contribute uniquely.
A good example is Nigeria, Africa’s most populous nation with a population estimate of about over 170,000,000 people and the sixth Oil producing Nation.
Das Leben der beiden Autoren Jean Bodin und Michel de Montaigne wurde von den blutigen Auseinandersetzungen der französischen Religionskriege geprägt. Aus diesem Grund besitzt die Religon in ihren Werken eine herausgehobene Stellung. In "Les six livres de la République" von Jean Bodin gründet dieser sein Prinzip der Souveränität auf die Religion. Diese gibt also die Grundregeln des menschlichen Zusammenlebens vor. In seinem Religionsgespräch "Colloqium Heptaplomeres" vertieft Bodin diese Gedanken und entwickelt ein Toleranzkonzept, das die Möglichkeit des Zusammenlebens verschiedener Religionen in einem Staat vorsieht. Die Religion ist bei Jean Bodin also vor allem ein Instrument, um die Gesellschaft zu organisieren. Michel de Montaigne betrachtet in seinen "Essais" die Religion weit kritischer. Für ihn ist sie eine Instanz, die die Menschen trennt anstatt sie zu vereinen. Er warnt vor ihren zerstörerischen Folgen. Gleichwohl entwickelt Montaigne ein Toleranzkonzept, das auf seiner Grundüberzeugung der Gewaltfreiheit beruht. Es zeigt sich, dass beide Autoren die Religion und ihre Nützlichkeit für die Gesellschaft unter verschiedenen Blickwinkeln betrachten.
Within the relatively new area of research on Third Language (L3) Acquisition, the subfield of phonology is growing, but still relatively understudied. Testing the current L3 models adopted from research on L3 syntax (see Rothman 2010, Bardel & Falk 2012, Flynn et al. 2004), the studies conducted in the area have mostly focused on the source and directionality of language transfer – both into the L3 and into the respective background languages – with some recent excursions into the role of extra-linguistic factors for multilingual learners (e.g., Wrembel 2015). The findings so far (mostly on production, with perception lagging behind) have been very diverse and, depending on the concrete study, can often be taken to give evidence for any of the prevalent models. This can be attributed to the wide range of different speaker and learner biographies as well as their language combinations and state of acquisition, but crucially the dilemma seems to be inherent in the (phonological) system in and of itself since viewing phonological interlanguage transfer as a one-dimensional and immediately transparent process based on direct correspondences between language systems does not seem to capture the complex nature of the phenomenon.
In this doctoral thesis I investigate the acquisition of an additional phonological system by child and adult German heritage speakers of Turkish. Specifically, I explore how the learners deal with diverse phonological contrasts that promote positive contra negative transfer from their HL (Turkish) and their L2 (German), and how their perception and production is modulated by cognitive and affective variables. Moreover, I test contrasts that can be found neither in the HL nor in the L2 phonological system.
The studies will shed light both on the question of how a new language is shaped and affected by different existing systems and on how two or more phonological grammars co-exist and/or interact in a speaker’s mind. I will argue that, rather than being regarded as simple full projection of language-specific property sets onto the target language, phonological transfer in multilinguals needs to be considered as a process of complex interactions and layers that are established on the level of individual phonological properties and abstract (typological) associations.

Der lyrische Triebtäter André Pieyre de Mandiargues Gewalt und Erotik im Gedichtband L’Âge de craie
(2017)
The surrealists are not the only influence on the literary efforts of André Pieyre de Mandiargues – but it’s this influence that makes his oeuvre capable for an analysis based on Freudian theories. This way of an analysis is even more appropriate knowing that two of Mandiargues’ main and favourite themes – the eroticism and the violence – coincide with the Freudian life and destruction drive. Analysing the two poems Les filles des gobes and Les ruines de l’amour from the volume of poems L’Âge de craie, it’s these two paradigms that are clearly recognizable: Mandiargues’ symbolism reveals the duality of the domination by desires.
