Namenzwillinge und ‑mehrlinge in der Toponymie: Am Beispiel von Deutschschweizer Ortsnamen
Full text linkNot all place names are unique, and certain place names are – or used
to be – name twins or even name multiples. In a corpus of around 1200 place
names from German speaking Switzerland it was found that nearly a quarter of
them share the original name form with at least one other name (etymological
or primary homonyms). Today, the originally identical name forms are either
the same or differ from each other. A smaller part of the corpus consists of
place names that show the same name form today but derive from different original
name forms (secondary homonyms). This article explores the possibility of
classifying place names according to the concept of homonymy, which is familiar
primarily in relation to common nouns and has not been examined with regard
to place names before. As a first step, the place names were classified into types
of homonymy (total or partial homonymy). Subsequently, the processes that lead
from the original name form to today’s name form – either parallel to or different
from each other – were investigated and characterized. The aim was to explore
the influencing factors affecting the development of the name forms. It was found
that the geographical distance between the places involved can have a major
influence on the development of the names. However, phonological processes,
writing conventions in administration, morphology and folk etymology also
play an important role
Phraseological Units in "Nathan und seine Kinder" by Mirjam Pressler
Full text linkDiplomsko delo obravnava nemške frazeme, ki sem jih našla v mladinskem romanu Nathan und seine Kinder pisateljice Mirjam Pressler. Glavni cilj moje diplomske naloge je najti razlike in podobnosti v razmerju nemškega in slovenskega jezika.
Delo je razdeljeno na dva dela. V teoretičnem delu so podrobneje predstavljene osnove frazeologije, lastnosti frazemov in njihova uporaba v mladinski literaturi. Prav tako je nekaj besed namenjenih pisateljici Mirjam Pressler in njenemu delu. Empirični del obravnava frazeme najdene v romanu, jih primerja s slovenskimi ustreznicami ter na podlagi primerjave določi stopnjo ekvivalence.The following thesis will deal with idioms, found in the young adult novel Nathan und seine Kinder by author Mirjam Pressler. The main goal of the thesis is to establish the differences and similarities present when comparing idioms found in the German language, with those found in Slovenian.
The thesis is divided into two parts. The first is theoretical and features a presentation of the basics of phraseology, the characteristics of idioms and their use in young adult literature. A chapter is devoted to the authorMirjam Pressler and her work. The empirical part of the thesis deals with idioms found in the literary work itself, compares them with corresponding words in Slovenian and determines their level of equivalence based on said comparison

«Verunstaltung und Verstümmelung» – Lautwandel in der Toponymie am Beispiel von Deutschschweizer Siedlungsnamen
Full text linkThe Benefits of Being Economics Professor A (and not Z)
Full text linkAlphabetic name ordering on multi-authored academic papers, which is the convention in the economics discipline and various other disciplines, is to the advantage of people whose last name initials are placed early in the alphabet. As it turns out, Professor A, who has been a first author more often than Professor Z, will have published more articles and experienced afaster growth rate over the course of her career as a result of reputation and visibility. Moreover, authors know that name ordering matters and indeed take ordering seriously: Several characteristics of an author group composition determine the decision to deviate from the default alphabetic name order to a significant extent.performance measurement, incentives, economists, name ordering

Competition through Technical Progress
Full text linkThe relationship between technical progress and price competition is a controversial issue in economics. This paper highlights the fact that investment in technical progress is an authentic type of competition which benefits the consumers rather than the industry. This type of competition exists when the potential for technical progress, which can be incorporated by firms through investment, is high enough. Competition is, in fact, made up of two components: A static one which is known as price or quantity competition and a dynamic one, the Technical Progress competition which also contribute to reduce prices and increase quantities for consumers. Consequently, the economic factors that increase a firm's margin do not have to be viewed as the consumers' enemy, but rather as an ally, under specific conditions, because they allow higher investments in new technology by which firms increase their capacities and attract higher demand from consumers. This paper also underlines that, for a mature market, the maximum Consumer Surplus as well as Social Welfare are attained by a constant level of combined competition which is only dependent on the size of the market and the number of firms. The level of combined competition can be defined as the product of the static and the dynamic level of competition. As a consequence, the higher the potential of technical progress is, the lower the level of static competition must be in order to reach the maximum level of Consumer Surplus and Social Welfare. --Investment,Competition,Technical Progress,Dynamic Competition
