▼ The present study is an attempt to connect the psycholinguistic study of lexical attrition and the different tools used in lexical statistics to measure lexical diversity, with a focus on Zipf’s law and its potential as a lexical diversity measure. The theoretical introduction outlines certain theoretical explanations for forgetting language and vocabulary, and compares different tools used for measuring lexical diversity in previous research. Later, Zipf’s law is presented, with a focus on its origin and the potential meaningfulness of its exponent as a measure of lexical diversity. Using data collected by Keijzer (2007), the spontaneous speech of a group of attriters, a group of controls, and a group of language acquirers was studied. Three research questions were investigated: whether attriter speech conforms to Zipf’s law, whether it does so with the same or a different slope as controls (and acquirers) and whether the exponent is a strong predictor of group membership when compared with other measures of lexical diversity. Using the same approach as in van Egmond et al. (2015), a good fit of the law was found in all three groups, with an unexpected better fit in the attriter group than in the control group. There were also significant differences in the exponent of the law among groups. The results in the exponent accord with previous findings in the study of aphasic speech and language acquisition, suggesting that the exponent might have linguistic relevance. The results are discussed relative to the different theoretical accounts of the origin of the law. To answer whether the exponent is a good predictor of group membership, it was compared with other measures of lexical diversity (number of types, number of tokens, type-token ratio, sample-independent type-token ratio, vocd-D, and MATTR), including the sociolinguistic variables of gender, education level and region of upbringing. The results show that the exponent failed to predict group membership of education level or region of origin, whereas sample-size independent measures like vocd-D performed better. This suggests that the exponent is not the most effective tool to measure lexical diversity. Advisors/Committee Members: Egmond, M. van, Avrutin, S..

CITE/Language Arts

Ed.D.

In a series of studies using semantic relatedness judgment response times, Jiang (2000, 2002, 2004a) has claimed that L2 lexical entries fossilize with their equivalent L1 content or something very close to it. In another study using a more productive test of lexical knowledge (Jiang 2004b), however, the evidence for this conclusion was less clear. The present study is a partial replication of Jiang (2004b) with Japanese learners of English. The aims of the study are to investigate the influence of the first language (L1) on second language (L2) lexical knowledge, to investigate whether lexical knowledge displays frequency-related, emergent properties, and to investigate the influence of the L1 on the acquisition of L2 word pairs that have a common L1 equivalent. Data from a sentence completion task was completed by 244 participants, who were shown sentence contexts in which they chose between L2 word pairs sharing a common equivalent in the students' first language, Japanese. The data were analyzed using the statistical analyses available in the programming environment R to quantify the participants' ability to discriminate between synonymous and non-synonymous use of these L2 word pairs. The results showed a strong bias against synonymy for all word pairs; the participants tended to make a distinction between the two synonymous items by assigning each word a distinct meaning. With the non-synonymous items, lemma frequency was closely related to the participants' success in choosing the correct word in the word pair. In addition, lemma frequency and the degree of similarity between the words in the word pair were closely related to the participants' overall knowledge of the non-synonymous meanings of the vocabulary items. The results suggest that the participants had a stronger preference for non-synonymous options than for the synonymous option. This suggests that the learners might have adopted a one-word, one-meaning learning strategy (Willis, 1998). The reasonably strong relationship between several of the usage-based statistics and the item measures from R suggest that with exposure learners are better able to use words in ways that are similar to native speakers of English, to differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate contexts and to recognize the boundary separating semantic overlap and semantic uniqueness. Lexical similarity appears to play a secondary role, in combination with frequency, in learners' ability to differentiate between appropriate and inappropriate contexts when using L2 word pairs that have a single translation in the L1.

Dans notre recherche, le premier volume inclut une composante linguistique comportant une analyse textométrique du corpus afin de compléter la vision d’ensemble dans une optique statistique servant à élargir le regard porté sur le discours de Jules Verne. En nous appuyant sur les possibilités offertes par les nouvelles technologies, nous avons fait un travail détaillé portant sur presque l’intégralité du corpus Verne.Le deuxième volume vise à explorer l’influence de la Franc-maçonnerie dans l’écriture vernienne. À cet égard, nous pouvons dire que depuis quelques années, de nouvelles tendances dans l’interprétation de ses textes viennent ajouter un ingrédient supplémentaire à l’éventail de recettes nous permettant d’interpréter autrement l’écrivain nantais. La critique littéraire pose ses regards sur un Jules Verne différent et dont l’œuvre est influencée par l’ésotérisme, conception bien éloignée de la vision que la tradition lui avait accordée. Nous trouvons capital de signaler qu’une composante philosophique proche de certaines sociétés secrètes imprègne l’œuvre de Verne au point de mériter une étude plus approfondie.

In this work, a first volume includes a linguistic component involving a textometric analysis of Jules Verne’s writings that provides an overview of his work from a statistical perspective; this analysis has allowed us to enhance our vision of his discourse. Taking advantage of new possibilities offered by recent technologies, we have performed a detailed study of nearly all of the corpus of Verne.The second volume explores the influence of Freemasonry on Verne’s work. This volume relates to new trends that have been explored in recent years, providing an additional element that has permitted a new interpretation of the writer. This body of literary criticism has examined Jules Verne under a different light, viewing his work as being influenced by esotericism, a perspective significantly removed from the traditional conception of his writings. It is important to emphasize that a philosophical component, close to certain secret societies such as Freemasonry, permeates the work of Verne and deserves further study.

En nuestra investigación, el primer volumen incluye un componente lingüístico que contiene básicamente un análisis textométrico del corpus, con el propósito de completar el panorama desde la óptica de la estadística a fin de ampliar la imagen que se tiene sobre el discurso de Verne. Sobre la base de las posibilidades que ofrecen las nuevas tecnologías, hemos hecho un trabajo detallado de casi todo el corpus Verne.El segundo volumen explora la influencia de la Franmasonería en los escritura verniana. A este respecto, podemos decir que en los últimos años, nuevas tendencias en la interpretación de sus textos vienen a agregar un ingrediente complementario al abanico de recetas que nos permiten interpretar de otra manera al autor nacido en Nantes. La crítica literaria pone sus ojos en un Jules Verne diferente, autor cuya obra está influenciada por el esoterismo, reception ésta muy alejada de…

L’incursion de l’Islam en Afrique subsaharienne à partir du IXe siècle, s’est opérée via le commerce transsaharien entre les peuples d’Afrique du Nord et ceux du Sahel. Ce contact entretenu par les caravanes commerciales entre les deux peuples a engendré l’islamisation progressive de la population hausaphone. Sous l’influence de l’arabe, plusieurs vocables sont introduits dans le lexique du hausa. Cet effet islamique s’accompagne d’une révolution dans la production de la littérature arabe-ajami. Grâce à l’adaptation de l’écriture ajami, Nana Asma’u, une polyglotte de renommée écrit au 18e siècle, plusieurs œuvres poétiques dont la plupart sont en langues - hausa, fulfulde et arabe. Sur la base de ces observations, cette thèse se propose d’analyser les emprunts lexicaux arabes dans les œuvres poétiques de l’auteur, et leur intégration dans la langue hausa. Sur le plan méthodologique, notre travail de recherche s’appuie sur la combinaison de deux méthodes : linguistique et statistique ; ce qui nous a permis d’analyser tous les phénomènes afférant au métissage linguistique et culturel dans les œuvre de Nana Asma’u. Notre corpus comprend 15 œuvres poétiques que nous avons lemmatisées en préalable aux calculs statistiques à l’aide du logiciel Excel. Les principaux résultats obtenus sur les formes graphiques, montrent une fréquence d’utilisation très élevée des emprunts arabes. L’association de l’analyse linguistique et des traitements informatiques, nous a permis ainsi de confirmer, de façon formelle et impartiale, que la plupart des emprunts les plus fréquents relèvent de domaines religieux, et donc liés aux lexiques de situation.

The incursion of Islam in Sub-Saharan Africa from the 19th Century was operated through trans-Saharan commerce between the peoples of North Africa and those of the Sahel. This contact, maintained by the commercial caravans of these two peoples engendered the progressive islamisation of the Hausa-speaking populations. Under the influence of Arabic, several terms were introduced into Hausa lexicon. This Islamic effect comes with a revolution in the production of Arabic-Ajami literature. Thanks to the adaptation of Ajami writing, Nana Asma’u, a renowned polyglot, wrote several poetic works in the 18th Century, most of which are in the Hausa, Fulfulde and Arabic languages. On the basis of these observations, this thesis proposes to analyse the borrowed Arabic lexicon in the poetic works of the author, and their integration into the Hausa language. From the methodological perspective, our research work relies on a combination of two methods: linguistic and statistical; which enable us to analyse all the phenomena relating to linguistic and cultural hybridization in the works of Nana Asma’u. Our corpus is made up of poetic works that we have first of all lemmatized using statistical calculations with the help of Excel software. The principal results, obtained in the form graphs, indicate a frequency of very high usage of words borrowed from Arabic. The association of the linguistic and computer…

Lo studio esamina la variazione lessicale regionale in forma scritta nell’inglese standard in California. Attraverso ricerche in rete limitate a 336 siti di giornali online con sede in 270 città in California, vengono raccolti i valori di 45 variabili continue di alternanze lessicali e quindi calcolati come proporzioni. Tecniche statistiche di autocorrelazione spaziale globale e locale analizzano i valori. I risultati delle analisi, riportati in 90 mappe, confermano la distribuzione regionale delle variabili in California. Le 45 variabili lessicali sono poi esaminate con tecniche statistiche multivariate per individuare le relazioni linguistiche tra le città della California esaminate. L’analisi fattoriale, che rappresenta il 50,5% della variazione nei dati, evidenzia tre aree nella distribuzione regionale lessicale: nord/sud, urbano/rurale, e aree centrali e basso meridionali/aree alto meridionali e del nord. L’analisi dei cluster gerarchica distingue inoltre sei regioni dialettali principali in California: quella del Nord, quella di Sacramento-Santa Cruz, quella della San Francisco Bay Area, quella centrale, quella alto meridionale, e quella basso meridionale. Cinque mappe multivariate sono fornite nella tesi. La spiegazione dei risultati si basa sia su modelli di insediamento storico che su una spiegazione socio-culturale, che si riflettono nel linguaggio in California.

The study examines regional lexical variation in written Standard California English. The valuesof 45 continuous lexical alternation variables are gathered through site-restricted web searches in 336 online newspaper websites based in 270 locations in California and then calculated as proportions. Statistical techniques analyze global and local spatial autocorrelation values. The results of the analysis, reported in 90 maps, confirm the regional distribution of the variables in California. The 45 lexical variables are then analyzed with multivariate techniques to identify the linguistic relations between the surveyed California cities. Factor analysis, which accounts for 50.5% of the variation in the data, highlights three areas in the regional lexical distribution: north/south, urban/rural, central and lower southern/upper southern and northern areas. The hierarchical cluster analysis also distinguishes six major dialect regions in California: the North dialect region, the Sacramento-Santa Cruz dialect region, the San Francisco Bay Area dialect region, the Central dialect region, the Upper Southerns dialect region, and the Lower Southern dialect region. Five multivariate maps are provided in the thesis. The explanation of the results is based both on historical settlement patterns and on a socio-cultural explanation, which are reflected in the language in California.
