RE: telco tomorrow, 15:00 CET, random talk

To keep up with tonight's discussion:

I agree with Guido's note on different meanings for a same lexical entry: This occurs in one language and
of course particularly across languages: I have no practical reference for Guido's example "dog-Hund", but for instance the Chinese entry of 'dog' should include, apart from "domesticated animal", "edible animal", since dogs are commonly eaten.

Citing Armando: "Sometimes senses are not factorized on the WN glosses" - if I got it right, can you give us an example?

Was playing around with the model. Thanks Philip for the example.
Take the following as a random talk about the many implications or extensions that can derive from it.

Let's assume sb is not looking for the French puddle, but starts from 'dog' as point of discussion and
tries to derive analogies across languages from its inflections.

Let's assume we look for a mapping of 'dogged' (stubbornly relentless, persistent):
we find similar concepts in other languages (perse2ve2rance, obstination -fr; perseverante, ostinato -it;
hartnaeckig, verbissen- de > interestingly: verbissen from Biss - bite; hartnaeckig / probably
from Nacken - back, lit. hard back > similar expression in It: "avere le spalle forti" /lit. to have strong shoulders)

Let's go for "to be dogged" (e.g. to be dogged by an illness)
We have the concept of 'persecution' in at least four languages:
*ser maltratado por/ser castigado por/ser perseguidado por (Sp)
*verfolgt von (Ge) (to be persecuted)
*zhe2mo (persecution, torment)(Ch); wei3sui2 (lit. "tail behind") versus the normal gou3 ("dog")
*perseguitato, maltrattato (It)

Let's look for a collocation with the word, e.g. "to dog around": Here we have at least two meanings.
1.to work hard 2. to cheat on sb (dogging, slang: a woman picking up men at random)

if we go for adj. plus word (e.g. top dog), we also get another new meaning (in this case: the leader or chief
of a group). Interestingly, in German we don't have the dog but the deer or stag to denote the concept (Platzhirsch).

Sorry, I forgot the diagram with the example.

Apologies,
