Kvensk grammatikk is a comprehensive presentation of the structure of the Kven language, a Baltic-Finnic minority language in Norway. The grammar has been reviewed and approved by Kvensk språkting, the decision-making body for the school norm of Kven. The book was first published in Kven, and Kvensk grammatikk is a somewhat revised version, translated into Norwegian. The book describes the sound system and orthography in Kven. It contains a detailed syntactic-semantic analysis of adposition usage and of the conjunction and subjunction system in the language, and describes the adverb types found in Kven based on their semantic function. The pronouns system as well is thoroughly described in the grammar. The syntax part is based on an ontological-semantic analysis of the verbs. The basic idea is that the verbs of the same ontological-semantic category have the same valency structure; that is, the actual semantic relationships are reflected in the sentence structure. The result is a description of frequent sentence types in the language, what kind of complements they take, and what case the complements have. The morphology part takes care of nominal and verbal inflection, and all of the inflectional categories are described in detail. Their usage is illustrated with example sentences. All linguistic phenomena treated in this grammar are richly illustrated with examples. For some linguistic phenomena, two or three different dialectal variants may occur. The grammar takes into account this dialectic variation in Kven.

This MDPI Special Issue contains the conference proceedings of MOBILLE. Hosted by the iconic Lycée Français de New York, MOBILLE was an unprecedented international conference that gathered scholars and practitioners from all over the world in a forum about the impact of new technologies on the learning and teaching of languages. MOBILLE stands for Mobile Language Learning Experience. Language learning occurs in various environments, in dedicated regular classes as well as in those integrating language and subject matter. This Special Issue focuses on how technology—ubiquitous, pervasive and forever changing, shapes the experiences of learners, as well as teachers in primary school, secondary school and beyond. What is mobile is not just the technology, but ultimately the language learning itself.

“Information Theory and Language” is a collection of 12 articles that appeared recently in Entropy as part of a Special Issue of the same title. These contributions represent state-of-the-art interdisciplinary research at the interface of information theory and language studies. They concern in particular: • Applications of information theoretic concepts such as Shannon and Rényi entropies, mutual information, and rate–distortion curves to the research of natural languages; • Mathematical work in information theory inspired by natural language phenomena, such as deriving moments of subword complexity or proving continuity of mutual information; • Empirical and theoretical investigation of quantitative laws of natural language such as Zipf’s law, Herdan’s law, and Menzerath–Altmann’s law; • Empirical and theoretical investigations of statistical language models, including recently developed neural language models, their entropies, and other parameters; • Standardizing language resources for statistical investigation of natural language; • Other topics concerning semantics, syntax, and critical phenomena. Whereas the traditional divide between probabilistic and formal approaches to human language, cultivated in the disjoint scholarships of natural sciences and humanities, has been blurred in recent years, this book can contribute to pointing out potential areas of future research cross-fertilization.

philosophical jargon are called Tenses". To claim that Tenses are real is to claim that they are satisfied, i.e. that something in fact possesses them. The debate between realists and antirealists concerning Tense has so far been conducted in ontological terms. Realists about Tense (so-called A-theorists)claim that things really do have Tenses, antirealists (Btheorists) deny this. Most of them claim that Tenses can be reduced to tenseless properties. This book criticises the current debate between A-theorists like Quentin Smith and B-theorists like D. H. Mellor on methodological grounds. It suggests an alternative strategy for how the debate might proceed, where insights from other kinds of realism-debates are made useful for the debate about Tense. This book makes the original attempt to apply two general frameworks for realism-debates, developed by Michael Dummett and Crispin Wright, to the debate about Tense. Here the focus lies on the correct interpretation of the truth-predicate for statements of the disputed kind. The aim of this publication is to show that the debate about the reality of Tense should be reinterpreted as a debate about the truth and semantics of statements which ascribe Tenses."

Prof. Dr. Uwe Koreik has played a decisive role in shaping the subject of German as a Foreign and Second Language in academic and institutional terms over the past decades. Under the title Beruf(ung) DaF/DaZ, which reflects Uwe Koreik's decades of commitment to the subject and the people associated with it, the commemorative publication for him on the occasion of his 65th birthday is now available. It combines 24 academic contributions and 16 vignettes in two volumes. The academic contributions, written by renowned representatives of the field, trace Uwe Koreik's academic career and address topics from his fields of work and research: Cultural Studies, Film and Literature, Places of Remembrance as well as the field of testing and examination. The vignettes from colleagues, companions and friends also take a look at the human side of Uwe Koreik in humorous and anecdotal form.

Migration has become a structural part of the globalized society in which we live and, as such, it is essential to determine the causes and effects it produces in the involved social groups. Sociolinguistics has a very important role to play in this respect, insofar as its object of study focuses precisely on the analysis of the interrelationships between the linguistic and the social dimensions. This volume presents a series of proposals that involve theoretical approaches, models, and applications related to the process of sociolinguistic integration in contact situations arising from migration. The volume includes studies of general interest which present models and theoretical foundations for the analysis of this process of integration, as well as others which focus on other more specific aspects, such as how migration influences the construction of individual identity, emotional and affective factors in the preservation of the heritage language, and the processes of interlingual convergence that take place in situations of migratory contact. This volume also contains the didactic dimension applied to the immigrant population, with proposals for teaching with proven effectiveness.

Eine der grundlegenden Fragen, im öffentlichen Recht im Allgemeinen wie im Bergrecht im Besonderen, ist immer noch die Frage nach der Rechtsnachfolge in öffentlich-rechtliche Zulassungen. Dabei ist kaum ein anderes Rechtsgebiet wie das Bergrecht von einer langen Tradition geprägt, ohne an Aktualität einzubüßen. Gerade in einer Situation wie der heutigen, in der viele (ehemalige) Bergbauunternehmen einem Restrukturierungsprozess unterzogen werden, ist besonders die bergrechtliche Nachfolgefrage von praktischer Bedeutung: was geschieht im Falle des Todes eines Berechtigungsinhabers, in Fällen gesellschaftsrechtlicher Umwandlungen bestehender Bergbauunternehmen oder im Falle der Veräußerung eines Bergwerks mit den erteilten Bergbauberechtigungen und Betriebsplanzulassungen? Ein Vergleich mit der Rechtsnachfolge in verschiedene Zulassungsakte auf dem Gebiet des vorhaben- und produktbezogenen Umweltrechts liefert Lösungsmöglichkeiten und fördert zugleich das Bedürfnis nach einer Änderung der im Bundesberggesetz bestehenden Regelungen über die Rechtsnachfolge zutage.
