Mencken on Honorifics "Among the honorifics in everyday use in England and the United States, one finds many notable divergences between the two languages. On the one hand the English are almost as diligent as the Germans in bestowing titles of honor upon their men of mark, and on the other hand, they are very careful to withhold such titles from men who do not legally bear them. These are some of the honorifics used in Italy. As part of the republican constitution that became effective in Italy on 1 January 1948, titles of nobility ceased to be recognized in law (although they were not, strictly, abolished or banned), and the organ of state which had regulated them, the Consulta Araldica, was abolished.

Surnames in Europe
DOI: http://dx.doi.org./10.17651/ONOMAST.61.1.9 JUSTYNA B. WALKOWIAK Onomastica LXI/1, 2017 Uniwersytet im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu PL ISSN 0078-4648 [email protected] FUNCTION WORDS IN SURNAMES — “ALIEN BODIES” IN ANTHROPONYMY (WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO POLAND) K e y w o r d s: multipart surnames, compound surnames, complex surnames, nobiliary particles, function words in surnames INTRODUCTION Surnames in Europe (and in those countries outside Europe whose surnaming patterns have been influenced by European traditions) are mostly conceptualised as single entities, genetically nominal or adjectival. Even if a person bears two or more surnames, they are treated on a par, which may be further emphasized by hyphenation, yielding the phenomenon known as double-barrelled (or even multi-barrelled) surnames. However, this single-entity approach, visible e.g. in official forms, is largely an oversimplification. This becomes more obvious when one remembers such household names as Ludwig van Beethoven, Alexander von Humboldt, Oscar de la Renta, or Olivia de Havilland. Contemporary surnames resulted from long and complicated historical processes. Consequently, certain surnames contain also function words — “alien bodies” in the realm of proper names, in a manner of speaking. Among these words one can distinguish: — prepositions, such as the Portuguese de; Swedish von, af; Dutch bij, onder, ten, ter, van; Italian d’, de, di; German von, zu, etc.; — articles, e.g. Dutch de, het, ’t; Italian l’, la, le, lo — they will interest us here only when used in combination with another category, such as prepositions; — combinations of prepositions and articles/conjunctions, or the contracted forms that evolved from such combinations, such as the Italian del, dello, del- la, dell’, dei, degli, delle; Dutch van de, van der, von der; German von und zu; Portuguese do, dos, da, das; — conjunctions, e.g.

Issues in the Linguistics of Onomastics
Journal of Lexicography and Terminology, Volume 1, Issue 2 Issues in the Linguistics of Onomastics By Vincent M. Chanda School of Humanities and Social Science University of Zambia Email: mchanda@@gmail.com Abstract Names, also called proper names or proper nouns, are very important to mankind that there is no human language without names and, for some types of names, there are written or unwritten naming conventions. The social importance of names is also the reason why onomastics, the study of names, is a multidisciplinary field. After briefly discussing the multidisciplinary nature of onomastics, the article proves the following view stated and proved by many a scholar: proper names have a grammar that includes some grammatical features of common nouns. In so doing, the article shows that, like common nouns, proper names show cross linguistic differences. To prove that names do have a grammar which in some aspects differs from the grammar of common nouns, the article often compares proper names and common nouns. Furthermore, the article uses data from several languages in addition to English. After a bief discussion of orthographic differences between proper names and common nouns, the article focuses on the morphology, both inflectional and lexical, and the syntax of proper names. Key words: Name, common noun, onomastics, multidisciplinary, naming convention, typology of names, anthroponym, inflectional morphology, lexical morphology, derivation, compounding, syntac. 67 Journal of Lexicography and Terminology, Volume 1, Issue 2 1. Introduction Onomastics or onomatology, is the study of proper names. Proper names are terms used as a means of identification of particular unique beings.

The Botanical Exploration of Angola by Germans During the 19Th and 20Th Centuries, with Biographical Sketches and Notes on Collections and Herbaria
Blumea 65, 2020: 126–161 www.ingentaconnect.com/content/nhn/blumea RESEARCH ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.3767/blumea.2020.65.02.06 The botanical exploration of Angola by Germans during the 19th and 20th centuries, with biographical sketches and notes on collections and herbaria E. Figueiredo1, *, G.F. Smith1, S. Dressler 2 Key words Abstract A catalogue of 29 German individuals who were active in the botanical exploration of Angola during the 19th and 20th centuries is presented. One of these is likely of Swiss nationality but with signiﬁcant links to German Angola settlers in Angola. The catalogue includes information on the places of collecting activity, dates on which locations botanical exploration were visited, the whereabouts of preserved exsiccata, maps with itineraries, and biographical information on the German explorers collectors. Initial botanical exploration in Angola by Germans was linked to efforts to establish and expand Germany’s plant collections colonies in Africa. Later exploration followed after some Germans had settled in the country. However, Angola was never under German control. The most intense period of German collecting activity in this south-tropical African country took place from the early-1870s to 1900. Twenty-four Germans collected plant specimens in Angola for deposition in herbaria in continental Europe, mostly in Germany. Five other naturalists or explorers were active in Angola but collections have not been located under their names or were made by someone else. A further three col- lectors, who are sometimes cited as having collected material in Angola but did not do so, are also briefly discussed. Citation: Figueiredo E, Smith GF, Dressler S.

The Life of Mario Von Bucovich: Perils, Pleasures, and Pitfalls in the History of Photography
Mario for T.H. // Berkowitz collaboration 1 The Life of Mario von Bucovich: Perils, pleasures, and pitfalls in the history of photography Todd Heidt, Knox College, Galesburg, IL and Michael Berkowitz, University College London Mario von Bucovich was a successful and prolific early to mid-twentieth century photographer whose existence was, like many in his cohort, peripatetic. Remnants of his oeuvre are readily found on the internet, as scores of his prints and postcards are reproduced and offered for sale, especially his portrait of Marlene Dietrich. Bucovich himself was apparently camera-shy. Highly unusual for someone in his field, there are few if any self-portraits. He was captured at least once as part of an informal group, but no photograph of him alone has yet emerged. Despite the persistence and wide circulation of his photographs and writings, there has been limited interest in Bucovich, which may reflect a somewhat ungenerous assessment. Until now there has been little effort to detail and interpret his career. Although many of his portraits, landscapes, and urban photos are not notable, he was a creative and talented photographer. He also took the initiative, as few photographers did, to produce books of his photographs dedicated to New York and various European cities. In a privately published volume of 1935, intended to simultaneously de-mystify and elevate photography, Bucovich was unusually reflective about his views on photography and his own practice of the craft. But he reveals almost nothing of a personal nature beyond his life in the studio behind the lens. Both authors of this article, before learning of each other's work--coming from German Studies and Jewish Studies, respectively--were struck by the disparity between 1 Mario for T.H.

Anaphora Analysis Based on ABBYY Compreno Linguistic Technologies
ANAPHORA ANALYSIS BASED ON ABBYY COMPRENO LINGUISTIC TECHNOLOGIES Bogdanov A. V. ([email protected]), Dzhumaev S. S. ([email protected]), Skorinkin D. A. ([email protected]), Starostin A. S. ([email protected]) ABBYY, Moscow, Russia This paper presents an anaphora analysis system that was an entry for the Dialog 2014 anaphora analysis competition. The system is based on ABBY Y Compreno linguistic technologies. For some of the tasks of this competition we used basic features of the Compreno technology, while others required building new rules and mechanisms or making adjustments to the existing ones. Below we briefly describe the mechanisms (both basic and new) that were used in our system for this competition. Key words: anaphora resolution, coreference resolution, syntactic analy- sis, syntactic-semantic analysis Introduction The main task of the ABBYY Compreno system is to convert the input text into a semantic structure that is a tree where nodes are concepts and arcs are relations between these concepts. For details see [1] and [4]. At the early stage of the analysis process the structure of a sentence is repre- sented as a syntactic tree. The syntactic analysis of the input text is complete, i.e. every item of the input text takes some syntactic slot of some parent. Then the syntactic tree is augmented with non-tree links. While tree links en- code syntactic dominance, non-tree links capture conjunction, pronominal anaphora, PRO control, and other non-local dependencies between nodes. Further follows the transition from syntactic to semantic structure. During this process every parent-child arc in the tree is interpreted, and each node gets a semantic role related to its parent.

But in the case of Degas it would seem that the artist and the man, in their aggressive independence, agreed to hoodwink each other, and take a singular pleasure in the inexactitude of the judgments of the critics and those of the public. During the twenty-four years since the death of this great creator we have incessantly corrected, by successive cross-checks, opinions which were dictated to us through admiration: and we still continue to admire more and more, but the works and its author appear to us, if not less mysterious, at least different from what we believed to be certain.

Translating Proper Nouns
Translating Proper Nouns This handout will give you some pointer about how to deal with the proper nouns (the words that Page | 1 are used to designate specific people, places, institutions, companies, events, historical periods) that appear in a ST. Linguistically speaking, a distinction can be made between proper nouns (a single word) and proper names (a string of words/ noun-phrase). In addition to the points noted below, remember that there are certain differences at grammatical level between proper nouns in English and in French (for example, use of capitalisation, use of the article). TRANSLATING GEOGRAPHICAL NAMES The French essayist, Montaigne, writing in 1580, expressed his frustration that contemporary historians writing in Latin would latinise the French place names appearing in their texts: I have often wished that such as write histories in Latin would leave our names as they find them and as they are; for in making Vaudemont into Vallemontanus, and metamorphosing names to make them suit better with the Greek or Latin, we know not where we are, and with the persons of the men lose the benefit of the story. (Chapter XLVI, Book the First: Of Names) However, it remains common practice for translators to do precisely that: to use an exonym in place of the ST place name. An exonym is a geographical name used in one language to designate a place which lies outside of the territory where that language is the official language. It is different to the name applied locally to the location. So for example, Florence is the English exonym used for the city known to Italians as Firenze, while Allemagne is the French exonym of the land known to its own inhabitants as Deutschland.
