Wenn man den Konjunktiv bemerkt hätte
Die linguistische Wissenschaftsprosa hat eine Reihe von Formulierungen hervorgebracht, die ich, seit sie mir das erste Mal begegnet sind, immer auch einmal für mein eigenes Schreiben nutzen wollte. Der „Dämon terminologischer Erfindung“, den Malinowski (1974, S. 350) sich selbst attestiert, gehört ebenso dazu wie Henne und Rehbocks (1981) „Schatten im Orakeldampf“. Und dann gibt es Kotthoff und Nüblings (2018, S. 99) wunderbare Formulierung „von …
Automated football match reports as models of textuality
This paper deals with automated football match reports as a common genre of automated journalism. Based on a corpus of automated and human-written reports ( n = 1,302) on the same set of matches and with reference to linguistic concepts of text and textuality, the textual properties of these texts are analyzed both quantitatively and qualitatively. The analysis is based on the idea that the task of text generation can be described as the task of …
Racist discourse in a German far-right blog: A corpus-driven approach using word embeddings
Newer forms of racism in the context of right-wing extremism are characterised by an apparent distancing from overt racist devaluations. In addition or even beyond biological features, it is now cultural characteristics attributed to social groups which serve as grounds for practices of othering and social exclusion. This paper analyses racist discourse in the comment sections of the influential far-right blog pi-news.com where these practices ca…
Fankulturen und Fankommunikation
In der medien- und kulturanalytischen Linguistik hat sich ein lebendiges Interesse an Fans, Fanpraktiken und Fankulturen entwickelt. Insbesondere in den Sozialen Medien lassen sich die Erlebnis- und Inszenierungsformen von Fans und die fankulturellen Regeln und Rituale etwa des Displays emotionaler Involviertheit detailliert beobachten. Der interdisziplin re Band versammelt empirische, medienanalytische Studien zu neueren Formen von Fankulturen u…
Between consumers and fans: Writing fan reports as a multifunctional evaluation practice
Based on a corpus of approx. 360,000 'fan reports,' that is online concert reviews written by customers of a ticket agency, this paper analyses lexical and stylistic features of evaluative language and their social functions as means for (self-)positioning. The analysis shows that the reviews are oriented towards different and competing orders of value and their writers take different roles. While some writers act as enthusiastic fans that use th…
Wutreden und andere invektive Gattungen zwischen Rekonstruktion und Aneignung
This paper deals with ‘Wutreden’ (rants) as an invective genre in digital media. It is argued that the generic aspects of rants are not due to the formal and functional features of the speech events alone, but should be described as the result of the practices of doing genre. Digital media with its affordances to recontextualization and serialization allow to reframe disparate speech events as instances of one generic scheme. As a result, the eme…
The evolution of football live text commentaries: A corpus linguistic case study on genre change
Since the emergence of online live text commentaries on football games in the late 1990s, the genre has undergone continuous change. While linguistic research on the genre of live text commentaries emphasizes its novelty, the genre has existed in football for at least 20 years. However, diachronic studies still lack. This paper presents a corpus linguistic analysis of genre and register-specific features of German live text commentaries from 2003…
Sprachliche Verfestigung und sprachlich Verfestigtes.: Einleitung
The present special issue of Linguistik Online is dedicated to theoretical and methodological approaches to formulaic language use from a pragmatic perspective. Following the assumption that language use is thoroughly shaped by routines and prefabricated patterns, formulaic language plays a central role in recent theoretical and empirical approaches to language use like construction grammar or corpus pragmatics. Within the field of phraseology, p…

Korpora zur Fußballlinguistik – eine mehrsprachige Forschungsressource zur Sprache der Fußballberichterstattung

Wutreden – Konstruktion einer Gattung in den digitalen Medien
This paper proposes a reception-oriented and discursive concept of genre by using the example of „Wutreden“, i. e. public and medially distributed rants and their coverage in (online) media and Web 2.0. On the basis of a corpus of video recordings and transcriptions of Wutreden as well as comments made by journalists and users, it is shown that neither their linguistic features nor their situational functions qualify Wutreden as a distinct genre.…
Wer mich kennt, der weiß ...“ – Formelhafte Authentifizierung von Selbsteinschätzungen in Medieninterviews
Im Beitrag wird die in Presseinterviews häufig anzutreffende Formulierung "Wer mich kennt, der weiß ..." auf der Grundlage eines umfangreichen Korpus auf ihre Vorkommens-und Funktionsweisen hin untersucht.Unter Berücksichtigung der sequenziellen Position der Formulierung wird ihre Grundfunktion, die Authentifizierung von Selbsteinschätzungen durch Verweis auf Dritte, nach verschiedenen Fragetypen weiter differenziert.Die Wendung wird als formelha…
