Item Patterns of errors in the Swedish of Polish learners: Evidence from written Swedish(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1992) Malecza, ElżbietaThe author analyses the most typical errors in the Swedish of Polish learners. The analysis has been restricted to accounting for patterns which can be explained by negative interlingual interference. The errors have been divided into two groups: structural and lexico-semantic and supplied with numerous examples drawn from compositions and written exercises of various types of Polish learners. Errors in patterns of communicative competence are also dealt with. The analysis has been carried out in a traditional way and the emphasis has been put on its practical value.Item The principle of association in the use of the definite article in English and Swedish(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1992) Budziszewski, ArkadiuszIn the first part of the paper the mechanism of association in the use of the definite article is presented. The author also accounts for the most common types of relations between things associated with each other.

The analysis is based on Bzd;ga’s binary model. * The Danish suffix -ist is usually tacked on to nouns though some deadjectival derivatives can also be found. Some personal nouns with the above suffixes have parallel forms with the same meaning. Some Danish personal nouns in -ist have no Polish equivalents though there exist relevant bases in Polish. Numerous Polish derivatives in -ist/a / and -yst/a/ are rendered by compounds in Danish.Item Ein Textkorpus der geschriebenen dänischen Gegenwartssprache(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1992) Bergenholitz, HenningThe paper deals with the main problems of word corpus studies.

After discussing the complex nature of word-formation analysis the author puts forward a hypothesis that the primary concern of word-formation studies should be meaning.Item Ett bidrag till teorin om det svenska perfektums utveckling(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1992) Sadalska, GenowefaAn attempt is made to account for the development of the Swedish perfect tense. The analysis is based on Kuiylowicz’s theory on the origin of temporal categories. The Swedish perfect tense is derived from periphrastic present constructions which denote present states resulting from past events. The constructions tend to develop the temporal meaning of Past (Praeteritality while gradually reducing that of Present (Presentavity). This development is caused by the processes of delexicalization and grammaticalization. The Swedish perfect tense, however, has not yet reached the stage of pure Praeteritality though in certain contexts it can already be determined by temporal adverbs primarily referring to the Past.Item On translating titles of literary works(Wydawnictwo Naukowe UAM, 1992) Adwedyk, SławaIn the paper translations of titles of literaiy works are discussed.
