    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text

  3. R-260 · Cross-field connection · directed

    Collocation → Convention

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A collocation is a favoured combination of words. Shared conventions help explain why speakers expect some combinations. Frequent co-occurrence in a sample can also reflect its subject matter, so frequency alone leaves the role of convention open.

    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A convention is an established social rule or association. A symbol can draw its meaning from such a convention. The shared practice explains how a particular sign can be understood.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    A language game connects uses of words with the activities in which they have a role. Conventions can give these practices stability. Understanding a game also means seeing what participants do with words in the wider activity.

    Meaning of the relation type
    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
    Why connected?
    English editorial text
    Performative acts often depend on recognised procedures and roles. Convention helps explain the conditions under which the act can take effect. Repeating an action is insufficient evidence of institutional force.

    Die Verbindung überschreitet einen fachlichen Kontinent. (Original source wording; no separate translation recorded)
