Comment le schwa et la consonne de liaison vacillent et s'évanouissent dans le vaudois : un traitement de la variation
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2003)La variation linguistique est indissociable de toute langue naturelle, et les facteurs qui la conditionnent doivent recevoir une explication de la part du linguiste. L’instabilité superficielle du schwa et de la consonne de liaison constitue l’une des caractéristiques les plus saillantes du français, et dans ce mémoire, nous tenterons de dégager la régularité dans leur variation ainsi que la ... -
In support of the full access full transfer hypothesis : evidence from error patterns in the second language acquisition of English articles
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-12)The English article system is complicated for L2 learners. Article errors usually happen in L2 article acquisition. Article errors are not random.

Une étude de l'expression adverbiale du coup
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-06-01)L’objet de ce mémoire est l’expression adverbiale du coup. Nous avons observé que même si cette expression est couramment utilisée, il est difficile de décider de son interprétation dans certains contextes, et par conséquent il est aussi difficile de décider de son utilisation. De plus, nous avons l’impression qu’elle n’est pas beaucoup décrite dans la littérature linguistique. Par cette étude, nous ... -

Optimality theory and other theories of the mind : a system architecture comparison
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-06-01)In this thesis Optimality Theory is described in as non-linguistic terms as possible with the goal of making it possible to compare it to other theories of the mind, especially with regards to GEN, CON and EVAL. GEN is the generator of output candidates, CON are the available constraints and EVAL is a structure that evaluates the constraints based on some criteria. Connectionism, Motivational ... -
DP internal agreement in Amharic : a reverse agree solution

The complex distribution of the functional elements such as the gender, number, definiteness and case markers is argued ... -
To shape the world for the better : an analysis of metaphors in the speeches of Barack Obama

Obama brought hope in the lives of many. He was a contrast to his predecessor, ... -
Object-sharing as symmetric sharing : predicate clefting and serial verb constructions in Kusaal
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-05-15)This research investigates object-sharing in Serial Verb Constructions in Kusaal, a Gur language spoken in Ghana. In an attempt to investigate whether the object in object sharing SVCs in the said language can be said to be symmetrically shared as in the case of Dagaare, (Hiraiwa and Bodomo 2008), it is observed that the object in object sharing SVCs interacts with Predicate Cleft Constructions in ... -
Long-distance anaphora in Latin
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2011-05-15)This thesis investigates the distribution of long-distance anaphors (LDAs) in Latin and proposes an analysis which takes into account both syntactic and pragmatic factors. It is generally assumed in the grammatical literature that complement clauses of reported speech/thought constitute a relevant domain for long-distance anaphora in Latin. This claim has been challenged in Benedicto (1991), as there ... -

Denne stereotypien har jeg undersøkt ved hjelp av lydopptak av åtte informanter; fire gutter og fire jenter i Tromsø. Lydopptakene består av ei gruppe med gutter, ei gruppe med jenter og ei blandet gruppe. Jeg har undersøkt både ordvalg, mengde banning og banneordenes funksjon i ytringer.Jeg har fokusert spesielt ... -
Retroflexion in Norwegian
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2010-11-15)This thesis deals with the class of retroflex segments in Norwegian, their phonological status and their distribution with respect to prosodic categories. There is no general consensus regarding the phonological status of the retroflexes: some phonologists posit them as underlying segments while others take them to be clusters of rhotics and coronals underlyingly. The former view is shown to be ... -
Bruken av lokativ 2 ved hankjønnsord i russisk
(Master thesis; Mastergradsoppgave, 2010-03-22)I denne oppgaven har jeg sett på bruken av lokativ 2 ved hankjønnsord i russisk. Jeg har tatt utgangspunkt i 151 ord som faglitteraturen hevder får lokativ 2 og søkt på dem i Det russiske nasjonalkorpus for å finne ut hvilke som har obligatorisk, og hvilke som har fakultativ lokativ 2. På denne måten ønsket jeg også å finne ut om faktisk språkbruk stemmer overens med det som står i grammatikkene og ... -
