Proposing a new approach to the study of language, this book argues for the need to consider syntax in context and to engage with a wider variety of perspectives that better reflect the modern world and the changes to our language prompted by increased cultural diversity, the prevalence of social media, AI, and more.
Referencing big data and drawing on a corpus of linguistic research, the book explores in particular the socio-pragmatic sensitivity and complexity within East Asian languages incl
How do metaverse technologies change how we communicate with each other? This book explores how existing metaverse technologies affect our communication, both verbal and non-verbal, as well as the ramifications of these effects.

Der Band zeigt anhand zweier Korpusstudien erstmals eine Bandbreite von Verben, die in Bewegungskonstruktionen des Deutschen auftreten k枚nnen und kontrastiert diese Daten zu Versprachlichungsstrategien des Englischen und Schwedischen. Der Fokus wird auf bislang wenig systematisch erhobene Versprachlichungsstrategien gerichtet, wie etwa reflexive Konstruktionen (Sie kichern sich frisch verliebt durch die Gegend) oder Modalkonstruktionen (Sie wollen nach Hamburg). Aus Perspektive der Konstruktions
Dieser linguistische Sammelband befasst sich aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven mit einem allt盲glichen, zugleich aber gesellschaftlich hochrelevanten Ph盲nomen: der Liebe. Dabei geht es um die Frage, wie Liebe kommunikativ hergestellt, verhandelt, gefestigt und gepflegt wird und zwar in ganz unterschiedlichen Beziehungskonstellationen. Gemeinsam ist allen Beitr盲gen das Anliegen, Muster der aktuellen wie historischen Liebes- bzw. Beziehungskommunikation herauszuarbeiten.

This perspective
