Trnava: University of SS Cyril and Methodius in Trnava, 2020, V (2), December 2020, p. 2-52. ISSN 2453-8035 Abstract: The present paper examines the nature, formation patterns, types, and correlations of poreionymic backronyms, i.e. phrases serving as alternative interpretations of acronyms and non- acronyms designating transport brands, namely cars, both on theoretical and empirical planes. Since backronyms are likely to be confused with other linguistic phenomena, such as acrostics, apronyms, disabbreviations, and recursive acronyms, the differences between these notions are also analysed in the article. Key words: backronym, poreionym (transport brand name), acronym, non-acronym, acrostic, apronym, disabbreviation, recursive acronym, language game. 1. Introduction The postmodernism era is often said to be "marked by a shift from truth to fiction and narrative, by a change from the world of experience to that of language, and by the 1 This publication is also part of a sociolinguistic diversity investigation within Project № 2020.02/0241 (Ecolinguistic Modes of Ukrainian Discursive Space in the European Multicultural Continuum) supported by the National Research Foundation of Ukraine as "Leading and young scientists research support". 2 ISSN 2453-8035 demise of the three great metanarratives of science, religion and politics with their replacement by local language-games" (Lecercle 1990: 76).

  • The Exemplary Case of Toyota New Zealand
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. AN ANALYSIS OF MNE SUBSIDIARY PERFORMANCE: THE EXEMPLARY CASE OF TOYOTA NEW ZEALAND A 115.897 & 115.898 (total 120 credit) Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Business Studies at Massey University, New Zealand. Sheina C Osten 2015 ABSTRACT Within the ever-expanding global market place the importance of understanding MNE parent- subsidiary relationships and the impact on subsidiary performance has become increasingly important. International business researchers have examined MNE entry processes into foreign markets; the methods of international business operations; and, processes for organisational and subsidiary control as contributors to performance. But little attention has been paid to the contribution from subsidiary-level attributes, those attributes held and or developed within the subsidiary itself. Toyota New Zealand’s (TNZ) sustained success in the New Zealand market place over the past three decades suggests that local-level factors must be enabling TNZ to achieve this level of performance. In no other market in the world has Toyota achieved the same level of success as that achieved in New Zealand, and concurrently across multiple market segments (e.g., small car, Corolla; light truck 4WD, Hilux; commercial van, Hiace). As a consequence TNZ appears to be a worthy site – an exemplar case study - in which to explore the attributes/mechanisms used within a subsidiary business that actually achieve disproportionate performance relative to competitors at a local level.
