Identifying the acoustic features in tonal phonemes in Chinese
Get PDFThe current paper refers to the particular phonetic and phonological substance of the Chinese language. The key topics include the acoustic features of tonal languages, speech sound and audio-perception, as well as some issues of acquisition of Chinese language skills and reception conditions. The difficulties in tonal phonemes identification in hearing-impaired native Chinese and in non-tonal language users learning Chinese as a foreign language inspire the scientists to research the register of tones, acoustic features of tonal languages, the fundamental frequency (F0), tone contour and duration, and the speech signal – natural and subjected to filtration.The current paper refers to the particular phonetic and phonological substance of the Chinese language.

Metapher der Person im juristischen Diskurs.
Get PDFThe title of my paper could have suggested that I was going to address the metaphor of a person in the legal discourse as a type of scientific discourse in a broad sense of the term, i.e. beyond any individual accounts of it. In my article, I present the person metaphor as the constitutive term for the theory of artificial persons. The point of departure for my deliberations, in which I try to demonstrate the nature of metaphorical expressions used in building legal theories, is a statement by Paul Kirchhof, who demanded that metaphorical expressions be eradicated from positive (statutory) law. In my article, I ask whether the demand can also be applied to theoretical deliberations of lawyers on the nature of law.The title of my paper could have suggested that I was going to address the metaphor of a person in the legal discourse as a type of scientific discourse in a broad sense of the term, i.e. beyond any individual accounts of it.

Get PDFDie Problematik der Interkulturalität in der Glottodidaktik
Get PDFThe article discusses some basic notions related to intercultural foreign language teaching. These include: intercultural communication competence, intercultural teaching, and intercultural training. The article also presents the results of research allowing an overview of the status quo of interculturality from the perspective of Polish teachers of the German language. The research is of a very general nature as it was supposed to counterbalance numerous operationally detailed surveys and provide data on to what extent the teachers understand interculturality as a general guideline in teaching German as a foreign language.The article discusses some basic notions related to intercultural foreign language teaching.
