Abstract
This paper focuses on minimizing strategies in present-day Netherlandic Dutch. The minimizing construction under investigation consists of (1) an element of negation (geen); (2) a predicate and (3) a minimizer, a noun that denotes a small quantity and that is used to reinforce sentential negation (e.g. geen woord begrijpen ‘to understand not a word’). First, we situate the minimizing construction in relation to other, pragmatic minimizing strategies. Then, we provide a semantic typology of the minimizers in our dataset. Moreover, we give an overview of the different strategies that are available to extend the slot of the minimizer, such as analogical and context-based extensions. This shows the productivity (in terms of lexical scope) of the minimizing construction.
期刊介绍:
Al meer dan een eeuw wordt het Tijdschrift voor Nederlandse taal- en letterkunde uitgegeven door de Maatschappij der Nederlandse letterkunde te Leiden. TNTL richt zich op de historische neerlandistiek in de ruimste zin. Men vindt er artikelen over historische taalkunde (inclusief lexicografie) en diachrone aspecten van taalvariatie in het (hedendaagse) Nederlands, alsmede over de letterkunde vanaf de Middeleeuwen tot het einde van de twintigste eeuw. De artikelen zijn bedoeld om een breed publiek van neerlandici te bereiken, hetgeen onder meer impliceert dat behalve naar wetenschappelijke diepgang ook gestreefd wordt naar leesbaarheid.
