Ich danke ihm insbesondere dafür, dass er trotz einiger anderer Betreuungsprojekte meine Masterarbeit angenommen hat und somit meinen Wunsch, im Musikbereich zu forschen, ermöglicht hat. Des Weiteren möchte ich meinem Freund und meiner Familie dafür danken, dass sie sich meine Problemstellungen bis zum Ende hin angehört haben und mir immer wieder Inspi- rationen für neue Lösungswege geben konnten. Besonderer Dank gilt meiner Mutter, Gabriele Lorentz, mit der ich interessante Gespräche zu musikalischen Themen führen konnte und mei- nem Vater, Dr. Thomas Lorentz, mit dem ich nächtliche Diskussionen über Markov-Ketten und Neuronale Netzwerke hatte. Ich danke meinen Eltern und meinem Freund, Michael Feuerlein, für die kritische Durchsicht der Arbeit. Kurzfassung In der vorliegenden Masterarbeit wurden die Melodie-Hooklines von Popsongs, die in Deutsch- land zwischen 1978 und 2019 sehr erfolgreich waren, explorativ analysiert. Ziel war, zu unter- suchen, ob gewisse Muster in den Reihenfolgen der Töne und Tonlängen vorkommen, und diese zu finden. Für die Mustersuche wurden Markov-Ketten erster, zweiter und dritter Ord- nung sowie Chi-Quadrat-Anpassungstests berechnet.

The main aim of this thesis is to analyse the ways of expressing negation of non-standard English and compare the frequency of occurrence of these non-standard features with Standard English. The theoretical part first focuses on the concept of Standard and non-Standard English, then it deals with negation and negating features of both mentioned varieties.
