Sprachwandel im Schriftlichen?
Authors: Pickl Simon 
Published: July 2021

ZusammenfassungDie Entstehung der sogenannten ‚uneigentlichen‘ bzw. verfugten Komposita im Frühneuhochdeutschen aus pränominalen Genitivkonstruktionen wird gemeinhin als natürliche Entwicklung verstanden, die sich prinzipiell mithilfe üblicher Wandelmechanismen wie Reanalyse oder Grammatikalisierung aus dem mündlichen Sprachgebrauch erklären lässt. Dabei ergeben sich jedoch bestimmte Probleme, die die phonologischen Voraussetzungen für einen solchen Prozess sowie seine Chronologie betreffen. In diesem Beitrag wird durch eine quantitative Korpusanalyse die Diachronie der verfugten Komposita, ihrer mutmaßlichen Ursprungskonstruktion, der pränominalen Genitive, sowie zwischen diesen Strukturen vermittelnder Brückenkonstruktionen untersucht. Dafür dient das diachrone Predigten-Korpus SermonC, das Texte aus dem Zeitraum vom frühen 9. bis zum 19. Jahrhundert umfasst und eine ausgeglichene Basis für die Untersuchung von Sprachwandel mit Langzeitperspektive bietet. Im Ergebnis zeigt sich, dass die verfugten Komposita zu einer Zeit grammatikalisiert wurden, als der pränominale Genitiv längst aus der gesprochenen Sprache verschwunden war und somit die Voraussetzung für natürlichen Sprachwandel auf dieser Grundlage nicht mehr gegeben war. Stattdessen scheint es so, dass diese Grammatikalisierung auf der Basis der rein schriftlichen Genitivkompetenz und somit im geschriebenen Deutsch erfolgte. Daher wird in diesem Beitrag argumentiert, dass sich der Prozess der Entstehung der verfugten Komposita im Schriftlichen abspielte, d. h. in einer geschriebenen Varietät des historischen Deutsch, und erst in der Folge auf die Mündlichkeit zurückwirkte. Erst sekundär fand die neue Struktur, die gewissermaßen eine Kontamination aus pränominalem Genitiv und dem klassischen, unverfugten Kompositum darstellt, Eingang in die gesprochene Sprache. Dieser Hergang ist nicht nur aufgrund der Datenlage plausibel und wahrscheinlich, sondern vor dem Hintergrund des Verlusts des adnominalen Genitivs in den Mundarten zwingend und stellt eine Lösung für die genannten Probleme im phonologischen und historischen Bereich dar.

Zusammenfassung
In der vorliegenden Studie wird durch die Analyse ausgewählter Quellen althochdeutscher Schriftlichkeit die Frage geklärt, ob bereits in dieser frühen Phase epistemische Interpretationsvarianten der Modalverben zu belegen sind. Anstelle eines rein intuitiven Zugangs wird durch einen korpusbasierten induktiv-deduktiven Mischansatz eine Typologie entworfen, die auf der Ermittlung semantischer und (morpho-)syntaktischer Merkmale der Belegbeispiele epistemischer Modalverbvarianten beruht. Ein Katalog von Merkmalen soll als Argumentationshilfe bei der Beurteilung der Verwendungsweise der Verben dienen und darüber hinaus auch die Existenz von Zweifelfällen, Übergangsstadien und Sprachwandelprozessen offenlegen und damit auch erklären.

Abstract
The continued increase in several mobile applications forces to replace existing limited spectrum indoor radio frequency wireless connections with high-speed ones. Visible light communications (VLC) technology has gained prominence in the development of high data rate transmission for fifth-generation networks. In optical wireless communications, light-emitting diode (LED) transmitters are used in applications that desire mobility as LED divergence enables larger coverage. Since each VLC access point covers a small area, handovers of mobile users are inevitable. Wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) can be used in VLC systems to tackle the above issue and to meet the increasing demand for indoor connectivity with high bit rates. In this paper, a new system architecture for WDM with coded modulated optical in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) VLC system in conjunction with red, green, blue, and yellow (RGBY) LEDs is proposed to reduce the impact of random receiver orientation of indoor mobile users over VLC downlink channels and improves the system’s bit-error-rate (BER) performance. Simulation results show that the proposed method is not affected by the user’s mobility and hence it performs better than other approaches, in terms of BER for all scenarios and at all positions. This study reveals that using WDM-OFDM-VLC with RGBY LEDs to construct a VLC system is very promising.

Abstract

Background
Apoptosis antigen 1/FAS receptor (APO1/Fas) signaling in endothelial cells plays a significant role in angiogenesis while increased mean platelet volume (MPV) is an important marker for platelet activation. We investigated the possible correlation between APO1/Fas and both metabolic parameters and platelet activity (indicated by the MPV) in a healthy pediatric population.

Methods
One hundred and eighty-five children, aged 5–17 years old, were enrolled in the study. The participants were divided into subgroups according to their age and body mass index percentile (BMI%). APO1/Fas was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and MPV by the MEK-6410K.

Results
Eighty-one children (43.8%) had excess weight, which was more prevalent in children ≤9 years of age. Sixty-five children (35.1%) exhibited a predisposition for metabolic syndrome. A negative correlation was found between APO1/Fas and predisposing factors for metabolic syndrome: Glucose, cholesterol, uric acid, low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides. In contrast, a positive correlation was found between APO1/Fas and C-reactive protein (CRP). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis showed a predisposition to metabolic syndrome when APO1/Fas was <78.46 pg/mL. A negative correlation was also observed between APO1/Fas and MPV. MPV was also positively correlated with predisposing factors for metabolic syndrome: BMI%, glucose, cholesterol, uric acid, LDL, and negatively with high-density lipoprotein.

Conclusions
APO1/Fas expression is associated with a lower predisposition to metabolic syndrome may be through endothelial homeostasis, the induction of apoptosis of cells involved in atherosclerosis, and platelet activity. It may also enhance CRP-mediated noninflammatory clearance of apoptotic cells. Early monitoring of all the components of metabolic syndrome in overweight children is important in order to prevent metabolic and cardiovascular complications.
Synchronization in demonstrations. Multimodal practices for instructing body knowledge
Authors: Ehmer Oliver 
Published: July 2021

AbstractDemonstrations are a central resource for instructing body knowledge. They allow instructors to provide learners with a structured perceptual access to the performance of an activity. The present paper considers demonstrations as inherently social activities, in which not only the instructor but also the learners may participate. A particular form of co-participation is that learners synchronize their own bodily actions with the demonstration of the instructor. The paper examines two practices of synchronization in demonstrations. Inemergent synchronizationsthe instructor invites the student(s) to synchronize, rather than request them to do so. Inorchestrated synchronizationsteachers actively pursue the students’ bodily synchronization. The two practices are typically used for different instructional purposes. While emergent synchronizations are typically used in corrective instructions, orchestrated synchronizations are typically used to instruct new knowledge. Based on a large corpus of instructions in dancing Argentine Tango, the paper uses multimodal interaction analysis to characterize both practices regarding their interactional organization, their functional properties and the resources used by the participants to establish synchronization.
In other gestures: Multimodal iteration in cello master classes
Authors: Hsu Hui-Chieh , Brône Geert , Feyaerts Kurt 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
In this contribution, we investigate the transfer of embodied procedural knowledge in two cello master classes, zooming in on what we identify as speech-embedded nonverbal depictions — cases where meaning is communicated nonverbally, iconically, and without temporally co-occurring speech — an overlooked domain in the literature foregrounded by a critical reconceptualization of Clark’s (2016) framework of depicting. Examining such depictions in the cello classes, the curious pattern of multimodal iteration emerges, where the “same” meaning is communicated multiple times, but in multiple different combinations of modality and signaling method, and with different aspects of the meaning profiled. A brief discussion of such cases in relation to dialogic syntax then underlines the relevance of semiotic properties and dialogic resonance, revealing the rich communicative affordances of multimodal iteration in contexts of instruction.
Vocalizations in dance classes teach body knowledge
Authors: Keevallik Leelo 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Language is believed to be a central device for communicating meaning and knowledge between humans. It is superb in its capacity to code abstract ideas and displaced information, which can be conveyed from person to person, sometimes across centuries. When it comes to instructing a bodily skill in co-present situations, language is used along with other multimodal resources. This paper focuses on the role of vocalizations in dance teaching, syllables that express simultaneous body movement rather than abstract lexical content. While being essentially a vocal resource, the meaning of vocalizations arises in the simultaneously moving bodies. By carrying indexical and only partially conventionalized meaning, vocalizations constitute a puzzle for linguistic theory that preferably targets the arbitrary, symbolic and conventionalized aspects of human vocal production. The meanings conveyed from one body to another through a vocalization are experiential rather than intellectual. Vocalizations provide a solution to the problem of transferring body knowledge from one autonomous organism to another, and can even be embedded in syntax. The analysis is based on an occasion of teaching a jazz routine to a larger group of students.
The social construction of embodied experiences: two types of discoveries in the science centre
Authors: Kesselheim Wolfgang , Brandenberger Christina 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Based on a large corpus of video and eye-tracking data and inspired by multimodal conversation analysis, this paper analyses how visitors discover natural phenomena during their use of hands-on exhibits in a science and technology centre (STC). In these discoveries, individual multisensorial experiences of natural phenomena are communicatively transferred from one visitor to another. This paper describes two contrasting sequential formats of joint discoveries in the STC. In the first and more frequent case, experiences are socially shared by focussing the co-visitors’ visual attention on one point in their interactional space, while in the second case perceptions are socially shared via reproduction sequences, i.e. by repeating the actions that have led to the discovery with exchanged roles. We will argue that in these reproduction sequences, sharing experiences can be understood via the concept of “intercorporeality” (Merleau-Ponty, Maurice. 2014 [1945]. Phenomenology of perception. London, New York: Routledge). Our paper contributes to the current debate on intercorporeality, as it empirically shows that it is analytically fruitful to extend the concept to situations without simultaneous perception.
Taking the trumpet up there: enactment of embodied high pitch in a multimodal body schema
Authors: Sambre Paul 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
This contribution examines how an expert musician teaches high pitch as an embodied practice in a digital instruction video. Musical meaning-making in this perspective calls for a naturalized phenomenology which deals with the practice of music teaching, which involves a performing body. The notion of high musical pitch in terms of an abstract embodied image schema is challenged in favor of a multidimensional body schema, conceptualized at the interface between multimodal language, i.e. in speech and gesture, and the affordances imposed on musical production by the human body and the instrument artefact. As a result, the traditional metaphorical take on upward verticality, movement and causal force in image schemata becomes a conceptual background which may lead to errors on behalf of the potential student, and needs to be further enriched by natural local corporeal dimensions: immobility, non-vertical change in the lips, mouth and air flow. Such body schemata can be used in teaching more dynamic concepts about enactive knowledge in the body in interactive contexts of knowledge transmission.
Situating embodied action plans: pre-enacting and planning actions within knowledge communication in sports training
Authors: Singh Ajit 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
This article investigates action plans not as mental but as situated and observable activities in social interactions. I argue that projections and action plans can be understood as complex embodied practices through which actors prepare and coordinate further actions as part of a trajectory of a “communicative project”. “Projections” within ‘talk-in-interaction’ are a central topic of conversation analysis (CA), e.g. for the micro analysis of the organization of turn-taking or for the identification of turn-constructional units. Aside from former CA-studies on syntactic and prosodic features, current research using CA from a multimodal perspective shows how embodied resources, such as gestures, serve as “premonitory components” of communicative actions. Using video data of communications in sports training in trampolining, I will show how communicatively situated “embodied action plans” are applied within pre-enactments and instructions for the production of embodied knowledge. Pre-enactments not only serve the production of an ideal imagination to corporally produce intersubjectivity. Pre-enactments are also used temporally for the multimodal and visibly situating of embodied action plans, to which actors can coordinate and orientate their current and prospective communicative actions.
First quantitative data on the feeding ecology of an arid zone rodent, the Common gundi (Ctenodactylus gundi)

Published: July 2021

Abstract
One species of the family Ctenodactylidae, the Common gundi, Ctenodactylus gundi, occupies a restricted area between the Saharan and Mediterranean domains where annual rainfall is between 50 and 400 mm. Its presence seems also conditioned by the vegetation, so its feeding ecology was investigated by the microhistological analysis of faeces collected in two stations (Baniane and Bazem) of the Aurès massif (Eastern Algeria) during two years from June 2015 to May 2017, and by the evaluation of the available food. The diet included a total of 34 plant species, 16 in Baniane and 20 in Bazem. Results show that in Baniane, Asteraceae were predominant with Artemisia herba-alba (relative abundance, A% = 33.13%), followed by Fabaceae with Argyrolobium uniflorum (A% = 20.32%) and Poaceae with Aristida sp. (A% = 14.95%). In Bazem, the most consumed plant species were Lamiaceae with Thymus ciliatus (A% = 42.77%) and Poaceae with Lolium rigidum (A% = 13.19%). Overall, C. gundi fed on a large number of plant species, and its diet appeared to be influenced more by the diversity than by the availability of vegetation. Seasonal variations in diet indicate that this rodent eats perennial vegetation throughout the year and opportunistically consumes annual plants to a lesser extent in the spring, with a certain time shifting between the two stations probably due to rainfall and temperature differences.
Path homology theory of edge-colored graphs
Authors: Muranov Yuri V. , Szczepkowska Anna 
Published: July 2021

AbstractIn this paper, we introduce the category and the homotopy category of edge-colored digraphs and construct the functorial homology theory on the foundation of the path homology theory provided by Grigoryan, Muranov, and Shing-Tung Yau. We give the construction of the path homology theory for edge-colored graphs that follows immediately from the consideration of natural functor from the category of graphs to the subcategory of symmetrical digraphs. We describe the natural filtration of path homology groups of any digraph equipped with edge coloring, provide the definition of the corresponding spectral sequence, and obtain commutative diagrams and braids of exact sequences.
Timing and Pace of Neolithisation in the Dutch Wetlands (c. 5000–3500 cal. BC)

Published: July 2021

Abstract
This article presents an overview of the current evidence on the process of Neolithisation in the Dutch wetlands. Over the years, several models have been proposed with different perspectives on the timing and pace of the process: a long transition, an early short transition, and a late short transition. The applicability of any of these models is, of course, dependent of the evidence. In this article, we briefly discuss recently obtained data from the Netherlands on vegetation disturbance (woodland clearing), soil disturbance (tillage), cereal cultivation, animal husbandry, and the use of ceramics. The data discussed involve palynological, sedimentary, micromorphological, archaeobotanical, zooarchaeological, as well as lipid analyses. Hence, it is concluded that from the mid fifth millennium cal. BC onwards, various aspects of a more “Neolithic lifestyle” become apparent in the archaeological record, including cereal cultivation on a structural, but small-scale basis in wetland environments. However, despite the “gradual” tendency that can be observed, the evidence is as yet inconclusive with regard to any of the models, due to persisting limitations of the datasets, potential regional variability, and aspects of scale. A new project, the Emergence of Domestic Animals in the Netherlands (EDAN), aims at a better understanding of animal husbandry through aDNA and isotope analyses, within a framework of statistical chronological modelling. We expect this project to enhance the debate greatly.
Stone and Osseous Adornments in the Mesolithic and Early Neolithic of the Iron Gates
Authors: Mărgărit Monica , Boroneanț Adina , Bonsall Clive 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
This paper is focused on the various kinds of personal adornments that were used during the Mesolithic and Early Neolithic in the Iron Gates region (southwest Romania). We review how the adornments were used, based on an analysis of their morphology and use-wear, and attempt to identify the sequence of actions involved in their manufacture. We document the changes in ornament type and technique that occurred between 12700–5600 cal BC, highlighting the fact that some “Mesolithic” types continued to be used in the Early Neolithic alongside the introduction of new types reflecting the arrival and integration into the region of a new population with different cultural traditions.
Study on the properties of composite superabsorbent resin doped with starch and cellulose

Published: July 2021

Abstract
In order to reduce the damage to soil caused by degradation residues in the application of superabsorbent resin (SAR), the primary target of this study was to improve its biodegradability by doping with starch and cellulose. After that, the water absorption performance of composite SAR doped with starch and cellulose was improved as much as possible by changing the formulation when the biodegradability changed in a narrow range. The degradation percentage in soil and compost after 60 days is much higher than that of the SAR without doping which is 8.42 and 14.17%, but the performance for water absorption depends on the type of starch that was used. Experiments showed that the presence of amylopectin in starch contributes significantly to the performance for water absorption of composite SAR. The more amylopectin content, the better performance for water absorption, but the specific relationship between the degradability and the amylopectin content has not to be proven. Finally, the best mass ratio of starch, cellulose, and acrylic was 4.2:1.8:65, which was determined via the experiments. A kind of composite SAR doped with starch and cellulose with excellent performance was obtained.
Preparation and properties of poly (vinyl alcohol)/sodium caseinate blend films crosslinked with glutaraldehyde and glyoxal
Authors: Ucpinar Durmaz Bedriye , Aytac Ayse 
Published: July 2021

Abstract
Bio-based films containing poly (vinyl alcohol)/casein have poor mechanical and water vapor barrier properties that limit their use in packaging application. Some properties such as water resistance and tensile strength can be increased by the cross-linking process. For this reason, poly(vinyl alcohol)/sodium caseinate (PVA/SC) blends were crosslinked by adding glutaraldehyde (GLA) and glyoxal (GL) at different ratios in this work. The films were prepared by solution casting technique. Fourier transform infrared analysis (FTIR) confirmed the crosslinking reaction between the components. As a result of the crosslinking, the thicknesses, water vapor barrier properties and water contact angle values of the films have increased. The total soluble matters (TSM) of PVA/SC film decreased with increasing amounts of crosslinkers and GLA crosslinked films exhibited lower TSM. The addition of GLA and GL resulted in more strengthened films as verified by the tensile test. On the other hand, GLA crosslinked films were more flexible than un-crosslinked and GL crosslinked PVA/SC films. The hydrophilic PVA/SC film became more hydrophobic with the increasing amounts of crosslinkers. With the crosslinking, the PVA/SC film became more thermally stable. In conclusion, the crosslinked PVA/SC films were obtained with suitable properties for packaging applications.

Abstract
Quantum Molecular Dynamics simulations of protactinium (V) fluoro and oxofluoro complexes in solution were undertaken using density functional theory with generalised gradient approximation (and the ABINIT software package). The complexes were studied in the gas phase (at 0 K) and in solution (at 298 K) with water molecules as the solvent. We characterised all of the systems, taking into account their structures, dissociation energies, bond lengths and formation enthalpies in solution, and explained their relative stabilities.
