In contrast to the English gerundives, which do not lose verbal behavior due to the derivation in the syntax and maintain all grammatical categories and characteristics of verbs, which is why one can speak of a real conversion while preserving the verbal semantics, the situation is somewhat different in Czech. In the deverbal, deadjective and other derivations, the Czech apparently made the transition to the noun with its critical properties, which is shown by certain restrictions in the aspectuality marking of deverbal noun phrases on -ni-, -ti-, which, e.g., do not pass the progression durativity test (Vendler 1967). In passive constructions, as is well known, a valence point in the position of the external argument is reduced compared to the corresponding active sentences, while the external argument position in anti-causatives is also not available in the deep structure. In addition to the syntactic restrictions that are evident in nominalizations in the context of simple sentences of different sentence types (causative, anti-causative, passive) and demonstrate the nominal character of certain types of deverbal noun phrases in the first part of this article, the second part of the essay deals with more complex structures and extends its analytical and theoretical part to the phenomenon of nominalizing subordinate clauses. The aim of the central part of this contribution is therefore to test the nominal properties of embedded conjunctional sentences and of embedded headless relative sentences on the basis of empirical data and thus contribute to the knowledge of whether certain types of relative sentences can (or must) be nominalized.}, language = {de} } @article{Kosta2019, author = {Kosta, Peter}, title = {Third position repair, overlaps, and code-switching within a strict turn-taking model}, series = {Urban voices: the sociolinguistics, grammar and pragmatics of spoken russian}, journal = {Urban voices: the sociolinguistics, grammar and pragmatics of spoken russian}, publisher = {Lang}, address = {Berlin}, isbn = {978-3-631-66462-9}, pages = {183 -- 201}, year = {2019}, language = {de} } @article{Kosta2013, author = {Kosta, Peter}, title = {Ambiguity and humor in translation}, series = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Slawistik}, volume = {58}, journal = {Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Slawistik}, number = {3}, publisher = {De Gruyter}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {0044-3506}, doi = {10.1524/slaw.2013.58.3.297}, pages = {297 -- 324}, year = {2013}, language = {de} } @article{Kosta2013, author = {Kosta, Peter}, title = {Die Tschechoslowakei seit 1918}, isbn = {978-3-86312-363-5}, year = {2013}, language = {de} } @article{Kosta2011, author = {Kosta, Peter}, title = {Konversationelle Implikaturen und indirekte Sprechakte auf dem Pr{\"u}fstein}, isbn = {978-3-8253-6002-3}, year = {2011}, abstract = {Der vorliegende Beitrag setzt sich zum Ziel, zu einem besseren Verst{\"a}ndnis pragmatisch relevanter Kategorien beizutragen und dabei die traditionellen Begriffe der klassischen Sprechakttheorie und der sprachphilosophischen Forschung wie Konversationsimplikatur und indirekter Sprechakt erneut auf den Pr{\"u}fstein der gegenw{\"a}rtigen konversationsanalytischen Forschung zu stellen (vgl. auch Kostan 1998, 2005, 2009, und Kosta, Thielemann 2009).

The primary parts are subject, predicate, their attributive extensions and indirect and direct objects. The secondary parts are Adjuncts, Prepositional Phrases and Frames (Adverbials). The present article analyzes different models, starting off with the models of generative grammar, continuing with the dependency and valency grammars and ending up with alternative models of Russian and/or Czech functional grammars. Under standard generative analysis the most discussed point is the problem of impersonal sentences and the status of subjects and objects therein: neither the concept of subject, being the Noun phrase (NP) of a finite verb [NP,IP], nor of object headed by a verbal phrase [NP,VP], fit into the picture of Universal grammar as it has been discussed in the Standard Theory (Chomsky 1965) because in impersonal sentences the subject NP is not assigned Nominative case and the object often has to move out of the complement position for reasons of case assignment and case filter. Thus, this chapter tries to redefine the notion of 'subject' and 'object' in impersonal constructions based on the results of current theories of Minimalism (Chomsky 1995 forthcoming, Szucsich 2008, and others).}, language = {de} } @article{HarthHasslerKostaetal.2008, author = {Harth, Helene and Haßler, Gerda and Kosta, Peter and Kr{\"u}ger, Hans-Peter and Tristram, Hildegard L.
