PROFESSIONAL LANGUAGE IN PRESENT-DAY ROMANIAN.
LINGUISTIC PATTERNS AND DISCURSIVE STRUCTURES
Stage 1
October December 200
In the first stage of this project, the team coordinated by Prof. Mihaela Gheorghe
PhD concentrated full attention on two objectives:
!"# e$%&r'eme$t o( t)e *oc+me$t&r, b& &bo+t t)e ree&rc) to/cand
!2# coor*$&to$ o( t)e ree&rc) /roect.
he associated activities are essential to start fundamental research focusing on
professional language in present!day "omanian. hese activities refer mainly to the
identification of relevant studies for the research topic that were published in speciali#ed
journals so that the bibliography for this research project could be completed.
he boo$s that we bought from prestigious publishing houses are from the field of
pragmatics, discourse analysis, contrastive grammar, all these being relevant for the
research topic aiming at identifying and describing linguistic patterns and discursive
structures of professional "omanian.
%lthough we did not aim at promoting the project from the very beginning, we
tried to let the scientific community $now about our endeavor and too$ part at the
national symposium organi#ed by the Institute for &inguistics Iorgu Iordan Al. Rosetti
within the "omanian %cademy between '(!') *ovember +- and at the annual
conference of the "omanian &anguage Department within the niversity of /ucharest
between -!0 December +-. hese are two of the most prestigious conferences focusing
on "omanian linguistics. his idea can be promoted by the international opening of the
conference of the "omanian &anguage Department since 1armen Dobrovie!2orin and %.
Met#eltin, member of the %ustrian %cademy, together with other researchers from the
niversity of %msterdam were $eynote spea$ers and guest spea$ers at this scientific
meeting. his is the general framewor$ where 2tanca M3da, "3#van 23ftoiu and MihaelaGheorghe presented the project that had just started. It was a good opportunity for us to
get in contact with the members of a project coordinated by the niversity of %msterdam
for future collaboration about the research methodology. he idea of promoting the
project within the scientific community was continued by Mihaela Gheorghe, who
published an article in the 2cientific /ulletin of ransilvania niversity of /ra4ov.
%lthough it was not an objective in itself for this stage, we anticipated activities
that are connected with future objectives and sent for review the abstract of a collective
paper for the I%D% 5or$shop to be held in May, in Milan 6Italy7.

he paper entitled %or#place meetings a site for polyphonic discourses. Aspects

23ftoiu argues that transitional small tal$ amplifies the feeling of eCuality among
employees and leads to the melting of social distances between superiors and
subordinates.
%n important role in establishing, maintaining and reaffirming relationships L bothwor$ and social L is played by humor. 2tanca M3da further discusses humor in two of its
instances, either con&ersational, spontaneous puns without a fi+!J.
