Congratulations to all the authors whose papers have been accepted. The first paper by Anica Perkovič (Croatia) and Georgeta Raţă (Romania) works within the framework of Morphology. It explores a corpus of terms containing the combining form “eco-” and its variants, excerpted from an authoritative American English dictionary with a view to establishing their semantic relatedness to ecology, or the lack of it. The following five papers come from Alina-Andreea Dragoescu, Cornelia Petroman, Ioan Petroman and Georgeta Raţă (Romania), and from Anica Perkovič and Snježana Tolić (Croatia), and work within the framework of Semantics. The words “soup”, café”, “coffee”, and “cuisine”, as well as a number of concepts and practices associated with sustainable agricultural systems are analysed from a semantic point of view. The papers are valuable in terms of subject content, with lists of inventoried phrases that can be of great use for teachers and lexicographers. In the third section of this volume, Historical Linguistics, Diana Boc-Sînmărghiţan (Romania) investigates the typological criterion as a fundamental premise in the analysis of place names in the toponymy of the Bistra and Sebeş valleys (Caraş-Severin County, Romania), in a paper based on finely elaborated arguments for applying and developing this approach, with a clear present-day state of onomastics. The following four contributions circumscribed to the field of Stylistics come from Oana Boldea, Ioan Petroman, Cornelia Petroman, Georgeta Raţă and Andreea Varga (Romania), from Nadia Norley (UK), Scott Hollifield (U.S.A.), and Anica Perkovič (Croatia). The authors discuss emoticons, religious metaphors, and metonymic transfer, in an attempt to seize the “why” of the facts. The three final papers are written by Oana Caullataille (France), Astrid Simone Groszler and Georgeta Raţă (Romania), and Anica Perkovič (Croatia), and work within the framework of Corpus Linguistics. They investigate word games, animal idioms, and adventure tourism terms, confirming the fact that rendering them in Romanian remains a problematic area. We hope that interest in the journal will increase significantly. In time, the structure of the editorial board will be changed accordingly, with additional editors and proofreaders. We would like to thank all reviewers and authors for their valuable contributions. Georgeta Raţă, PhD Editor Journal of Linguistic Studies 7 8 NOTES ON THE COMBINING FORM ECO- ANICA PERKOVIČ Josip Juraj Strossmayer University, Osijek, Croatia [email protected] GEORGETA RAŢĂ Banat University of Agricultural Science and Veterinary Medicine, Timişoara, România [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper is an attempt at supplying the necessary understanding of the terms related to ecology. It shows that there are terms apparently related to it and analyses the corpus of words strictly related to ecology, making it easier for undergraduates and specialists in agriculture to understand, learn, and use them. Keywords: Vocabulary; Composition; Combining form; Productivity 1. INTRODUCTION Strengthening training in agribusiness, rural development, and agricultural public administration can no longer be conceived without strengthening training in environmental protection. From this perspective, it is imperative to get the necessary knowledge and know-how in the field of ecology. It is no longer possible for any Member State to improve competitiveness for farming and forestry, quality of life and diversification of rural economy, and the environment and countryside in the frame of strategic approaches and options without properly understanding “the language of environment and ecology” (both as a specific purpose language and as a foreign language such as English). 2. MATERIALS AND METHODS We have inventoried all the terms containing the combining form (‘a bound form or bound morpheme used in conjunction with another linguistic element in the formation of a word’ – Chalker & Wiener, 1994: 72) eco- and its variants oec(o)- and oik(i)(o)- (from the Greek for ‘house’, ‘household affairs’ [environment, habitat], ‘home’, ‘dwelling’; used in one extensive sense as environment) in one of the best English language dictionaries ever (Webster Comprehensive Dictionary, 1995) and on the Internet (http://www.wordinfo.info/words/index.E). We analysed them from a semantic (i.e. from the point of view of their meaning) and lexicological (i.e. from the point of view of the stock of words being built on the same basis) perspective (Chalker & Wiener, 1994: 225). 3. RESULTS We have identified 114 terms containing the combining form eco- and its variants oec(o)- and oik(i)(o)-. 9 A. Among them, 25 (22%) have nothing to do with ecology, though they contain eco- and its variants oec(o)- and oik(i)(o)-: ecofugic / oikofugic ‘in psychiatry, a reference to or swayed by the impulse to wander or travel away from home’; ecomania / oecomania / oikomania ‘1. a morbid attitude toward the members of one’s family [domineering behaviour at home and humility toward other persons in authority]; 2. a pathological dislike of the members of one’s family often resulting in a feeling that one must get away from them’; econometric(al) ‘1. the branch of economics concerned with the application of mathematical economics to economic data by the use of statistical methods; 2. of, or relating to, or characterized by, the application of mathematics to economic data or theories’; econometrician ‘a student of, or specialist in, econometrics’; econometrics ‘the branch of economics concerned with the application of mathematical economics to economic data by the use of statistical methods’; econometrist ‘econometrician’; economic(al) ‘1. pertaining to the management of a household, or to the ordering of private affairs; 2. relating to the science of economics; relating to the development and regulation of the material resources of a community or nation; 3. the science relating to the production and distribution of material wealth; sometimes used as equivalent to political economy, but more frequently with reference to practical and specific applications’; economically ‘with economy’; economics ‘the study of the production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services’; economise / economize ‘to practice economy’; economiser ‘a person who economises’; economism ‘the theory or practice of assigning primary importance to the economy or to economic achievement’; economist ‘1. one who manages a household; a housekeeper; 2. someone who studies, works, or is an expert in the field of economics’; economization ‘the action or process of economizing (force, material, etc.)’; economy / oeconomy ‘1. the production and consumption of goods and services of a community regarded as a whole; 2. the prudent managing of resources to avoid extravagant expenditure or waste; 3. a saving or attempt to reduce expenditure; 4. originally, the management of a household; 5. current usage is sometimes a reference to that which is intended to be less expensive or to give better value’; ecophobia / oik(i)ophobia ‘1. a morbid dislike of home or an abnormal fear of being home or in one’s house; 2. a fear of home life or surroundings, including house-hold appliances, equipment, electricity, bathtubs, household

Welcome by the President of Region EAME The President, Franz Kuhn, welcomes the delegates, the Administrative Committee, the Council and Commission members and especially the Honorary Members to the 2005 Congress in Monaco. He hopes to keep seeing smiles on all faces today and gives a special welcome to Kuno Ritschard, President of the IWSF. He also welcomes Alain Amade, the IWSF Vice President and the IWSF media officers, Des Burke-Kennedy and Jean-Claude Durousseaud. He also gives a very warm welcome to our friend and long time President Aubrey Sheena. Franz Kuhn thanks the French Federation for organising this Congress. It is unfortunate that there were some difficulties with the technical arrangements in this hotel, and he thinks the hotel management has to learn what a congress is about as they seem to have no technical staff. Alain Amade apologizes about the space problem that has been solved now. He explains that Prince Albert would have joined us: he was asked two years ago about the date, but then one month ago he said he could not come because he had to go to an important meeting in Davos. He will be back on Sunday night, but unfortunately everyone will be gone then. Franz Kuhn, Kuno Ritschard and Alain Amade were invited to join him at the Monaco - Paris-Saint Germain football match, but Franz Kuhn cannot join them.
