RESEARCH PROJECTS CARRIED OUT IN 2016

Projects Supported by University Budget

Research in Structural and Functional Peculiarities of Germanic, Romance, Slavonic and Lithuanian Languages. Prof. Dr. R. Kriau膷i奴nien臈. 2010鈥2017.

One of the research trends of the Department is the analysis of structural and functional characteristics of the Germanic and Lithuanian languages. The research has been focused on the morphemic structure and formation of nominal words with neoclassical elements in the contemporary Lithuanian by the application of synchronic linguistic analysis, especially paying attention to directly and indirectly borrowed verbal derivational affixes in Lithuanian. This year the research has been expanded to loan adjective formations and adjective borrowings in the Baltic, Slavic, and Germanic languages, as well as the study of lexical expansion of the current English lexicon by novel lexical items. The research carried out by the members of the Department also falls into the area of sociolinguistics with a focus on the linguistic diversity and the new terminology of polylingualism, translanguaging and metrolingualism, examining the usage of elements of languages other than Lithuanian in everyday spoken discourse produced by city dwellers in working environments.

Research in Structural and Functional Peculiarities of the Germanic, Romance, Slavonic and Lithuanian Languages. Assoc. Prof. Dr. V. Banionyt臈. 2010鈥2016.

Research focused on semantic differences of sentence patterns including verbs of motion in General and Academic German. Semantic types of sentences in General German compared to Academic German texts in the field of biology and astronomy were investigated, the results are important for the development of teaching materials for German for Specific purposes and Academic German classes.
The compounding of German nouns in the manuscript of anonymous German-Lithuanian dictionary Lexicon Lithuanicum from the 17th c. were also analysed: the types of German nouns based on their left-hand members containing a linking element were discussed, and the structure of compound words from the perspective of word-formation of their units was described.
