    Abstract

    Anna Arciszewska
    Processes affecting the development of urban names in the past and today

    This work shows the processes of creation of city names. The process of shaping urban names has been changing over the years. It was a prolonged process depending on inhabitants. Citizens shaped their own names in their daily lives. The names usually informed about original landscape or  employment of people. They reported economic and industrial progress or turbulent history of the city. Nowadays we can observe the paradigm of shift in naming function caused by officials. It is the effect of our life in a hurry.

    Key words: urban nomenclature, name motivated, functions of urban nomenclature

    Archaisms in three Polish translations of Romeo and Juliet

    In this article I focus my attention on archaisms. I demonstrate that they are frequently replaced by their modern counterparts, which significantly changes the uniqueness of the original text.      I base my research on three Polish translations of Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare. Paszkowski’s translation is the oldest version I analyze as it dates back to the 19th century. Two other translations are more modern. Słomczyński translated the play in 1983 and Barańczak in 1990. Generally speaking, Paszkowski reflects Shakespeare’s intentions, language and style accurately and the most successfully. His target reader may sense the exceptionality of the original without referring to the English version. 

    Key words: translation, equivalence, archaisms, culture, etymology

    "Egg-beating rack", ”Hulled barley won’t get a sinking feeling”, “Black beauty” – the language and style of recipes by Marta Gessler

    This article discusses the peculiarity and style, as well as the generic structure, of recipes by Marta Gessler published in “Wysokie Obcasy” (High Heels – a women’s magazine) – a supplement to the “Gazeta Wyborcza” newspaper. In the press article the recipes are organised into an established generic structure, comprising the introductory part, composed of the title and the lead, and the next part, the main body, which contains the list of ingredients, information about their quantities and detailed instructions concerning the preparation of the dish. Recipes by Marta Gessler reflect the traditional variant of the generic model, and yet are more complex, since they were enriched with the author’s comments. By means of reminiscences, anecdotes, descriptions, stories narratives, or short stories, the texts of the restaurateur catch the reader’s attention and bestow the text with a distinct character.

    Key words: species, specific pattern standard, culinary regulation, style of the language.

    A Poison Tree by William Blake - the cognitive analysis

    The aim of the article is to demonstrate that cognitive linguistic methodologies can provide a basis for analyses of literary and poetical works. I attempt to fully interpret A Poison Tree written by William Blake. The analysis is based on the beliefs of the Theory of Conceptual Metaphor. I also refer to cognitive conception of emotions (Lakoff, Kӧvecses, Johnson). Rosh’s model of categorization has also been mentioned. I assumed, among others, after Langacker that linguistic meanings are individual in character and dependent on the author’s experiences.

    Key words: cognitive linguistics, William Blake, conceptual metaphor, emotions

    Planning of language tests – criteria of correctness

    This article deals with planning language tests and discusses the eligibility criteria for a good language test. At the beginning, the author gives a definition of a language test and attempts to answer the question what the aim of teachers testing their students is. Then, she outlines the general division of language tests, dividing them due to their intended purpose and, at the same time, discussing each of the mentioned type. In addition, she gives specific criteria for the correctness of a language test in the analysis of such key features as validity, reliability, practicality and objectivity. She also provides practical examples of the most common mistakes while planning a teaching language test.

    Key words: lingual test, criteria of correctness of lingual test

    Signs in cyberspace as language signs

    In this paper I present the main theories of semiotics (the science of signs), and communication, to continue to the characterisation and characteristics of language of cyberspace. Then, on examples, I show the use of different characters in the electronic space by their functions. The article focuses on the signs used on the internet chat rooms, and shows its value as linguistic sign.

    Multimedia school textbook in glottodidactic discourse

    The author of this article assumes that a textbook is central to the process of teaching and learning a foreign language. Thus, it she attempted to discuss a multimedia textbook gaining popularity during foreign language classes. In the first part of the article dictionary definitions of the concept of a textbook are quoted and its features are presents. In the rest of the articke, the analysis of e-textbook in terms of both content and construction plays the leading role. The author came to the conclusion that a classic textbook and digital textbook do not differ much from each other, if we consider the global composition and content contained. She stresses, however, that a student using a printed textbook has a fixed educational path, which must be followed in order to achieve a given level of knowledge. On the other hand, a student can easily get lost in a e-textbook, in the structure of it, a student may also exceed the mandatory segments through the use of a variety of multimedia files embedded in its structure.

    From mathematics to natural language analysis. Some remarks about Gottlob Frege’s philosophy of language

    Gottlob Frege (1848 – 1925) was mainly a mathematician who wanted to reinforce this discipline on philosophical ground. The starting point was the analysis of the language of mathematics, but his interests focused on natural language. Nowadays he is not famous as mathematician but rather as a philosopher of language, and he deserves the title of the father of this discipline. His writings are widely recognized by philosophers and linguists as seminal papers in philosophy of language His achievements were appreciated mainly by British analytic philosophers who dealt with the analysis of language. In the paper I focus on the part of Frege’s legacy that is still vivid in philosophy of language and modern linguistics. I particularly analyze mathematical inspiration of Frege’s semantics and the consequences of its application to natural language. Then I focus on the relation of semantic notions introduced by Frege with a rather unclear notion of linguistic meaning, and indicate the problems that appear if Frege’s semantics is to be applied to natural language. I briefly present the current directions in the natural language analysis that tend to overcome the problems generated by Fregean theory.

    Parliamentary debate - genre of expression analysis

    The object of the description is a contemporary Polish Parliamentary debate. Its mission is to describe the characteristics of genres. Parliamentary debate, especially after the political transformation, has become a complex communicative event. Observing this object allowed to explore the use of language and linguistic communication in one of the most important areas of public life and in dynamically changing social reality.

    Key words: statement genre, parliamentary debate, political discourse

    Lingual-textual measures of dialogueness in the leaflet (on material of antistrike-leaflets from August of the year 1980)

    In antistrike-leaflets from August 1980 we can observe different textual and linguistic exponents of dialogism. These are: the direct turn to the addressee, e.g.: Robotnicy! Mieszkańcy Trójmiasta!; the direct turn to the addressee YOU in the form of the personal pronoun you, e.g. ...od Was zależy... and possessive yours, e.g.: W Waszym jednak zakładzie..., in the form of the imperative of the 2nd person plural, e.g.: ...podejmijcie pracę!; WE in the form of the 1st person plural of a verb, e.g.: Odrzućmy puste słowa...; the possessive pronoun ours, e.g.: ...nasze dzieci..., complex question –answer and rhetorical question, FULL CAPITALS and augmentative. Stylistic and linguistic means of dialogism used in the area of text support the sending-receiving process and in this way increase the persuasion force of a leaflet.

    Creation of the meanings in Halina Poświatowska’s compositions

    Words have usually several different, interrelated meanings., Langacker paid attention to the ambiguity resulting from these properties in characterizing of the foundations of cognitive grammar. Meanings of words are tied mutually in a systematic way thanks to several cognitive processes which allow to see the internal structure of semantic relations. Halina Poświatowska’s poetry is undoubtedly a superb material showing these dependences, symbolic signs , figures of speech or semantic conversions. Her rich creation is unusually poly-sensory and various in respect of metaphorical visualizations. There is no doubt that in the lingual universe of the poet, lexemes picture the activity of all senses, both on emotional level, as well as mental or purely physical experiences level, which enable the readers  to see interpretations of the chosen fragments of poems.

    Key words: ambiguity  of words, semantic relations, figures of speech, personification, reification, contamination

    The Bulgarian-Polish dictionary of connections verb-nominal. Basic foundations and problematic matters

    The article is devoted to the project of the Bulgarian-Polish dictionary of constant verb-nominal connections. The authors notice a huge popularity of this type of connections in modern Slavonics and a large saturation of administrative, office-, judicial texts as well as texts of belles-lettres with these forms. In their opinion, the prepared Bulgarian-Polish dictionary of verb-nominal connections will facilitate translation of the bigger and bigger number of documents (among other things, in the context of the membership of both countries in the EU) and will bridge in the lexicography. The prospective volume of the dictionary contains approximately 2 thousands of entry-articles containing above 6 thousand Bulgarian verb-nominal type expressions with Polish equivalents. Every presented connection consists of a nominal segment expressed by an abstract noun and a verbal segment.
