Uppsatsen grundar sig på en empirisk undersökning av hur studenterna på Institutionen för nordiska språk kommaterar. Utfallet analyseras mot bakgrund av Lars-Johan Ekerots teori om en utveckling mot koncentration på prototypfallen. Av undersökningen att döma har Ekerots teori ingen bäring. Resultaten visar att samtidigt som vi tenderar att sätta ut allt färre kommatecken, utbreder sig en anarki i positionsfrågan..

Hunting ground graves were distinguished as a separate category during the 1930s.         There is however no clear definition of what a hunting ground grave is. They have been constructed over a large area over a long period of time (200 BC-1200 AD) and their morphology varies.This paper investigates how the archaeologists have discussed the hunting ground graves since they were distinguished as a separate category until today. It investigates what concepts that have been used to define and categorize the graves as a group. It also investigates if the choices of concepts are depending on a broader societal perspective.To find the answers to these questions two surveys have been done.

The purpose of this essay was to try to understand the relationship between the horse and man during the last part of the Iron Age and trough out the Medieval Age. To be able to get a result I investigated the horse's tending, work within agriculture, riding, warfare, breeding, to stable horses, oxen, sports and hunting, eating of the horse and age at slaughter and more.

The Pitted ware dwelling site Ajvide on the west coast of Gotland in the Baltic Sea is, because of its long continuity from the late Mesolithic to the middle of the Scandinavian Bronze Age, an interesting research object concerning Stone Age in the Baltic area. In this essay, a comparison between two activity areas on Ajvide have been carried out in the purpose of finding out what these areas may have been used for during the middle Neolithic.  It has been showed, through zooarchaeological analyses of animal bones, that the areas most likely are depositing sites for slaughters refuse and food debris. If it is a result of everyday or more ceremonial activities is left undetermined..

I denna uppsats har språket i radioprogrammet Klartext jämförts med språket i radioprogrammet Dagens Eko kvart i fyra. Syftet med detta var att undersöka vad i språket som gör Klartext enklare. Undersökningen grundades främst på den lexikogrammatiska modellen (Hellspong & Ledin 1997:65-80). Resultatet av undersökningen visade att de två jämförda programmens språk skiljde sig åt på flera olika sätt, bland annat använde Klartext sig av enklare och kortare ord, kortare meningar, fastare meningsbyggnad och sammanlagt 35 % färre tecken än vad Dagens Eko kvart i fyra gjorde..

The study aims to investigate Swedish fitness companies positioning and strategic choices when internationalising in the Scandinavian countries and what has influenced this choice.

Uppsatsen behandlar byggnadsutvecklingen i Bonderups kyrka från romansk tid till mitten av 1800 talet. Den enskilda kyrkan sätts i relation till den mer generella utvecklingen hos skånska kyrkor som den framstår i litteraturen.Undersökningen har visat att Bonderups kyrka ter sig ha haft en tämligen typisk utveckling under senmedeltiden och även under senare perioder. Däremot har det varit svårare att nå några säkra slutsatser när det gäller kyrkans tidigaste byggnadsfaser..

This paper deals with a taphonomic study of contexts with osteological material of dog (C. familiaris L.) from the Mesolithic and Neolithic of Sweden and Zealand, Denmark. The general aim is to develop and test a method to try to understand the activity behind and define specific archaeological structures. My questions also regards to wether a taphonomic analysis of the material could be used to identify treatments as wrapping and contraction of the dogs, but also dismembering and other preparations of the body. The study focuses on the relation between the space of decomposition, disarti-culation of the joints, evidence of wall effect, cutmarks, weathering and signs of postdepositional arrangements.The analysis is based on contexts from the materials Hornborgasjön, Vedbæk, Skateholm I and II, Sjöholmen, Ertebølle, Bökeberg, Bredasten, Löddesborg, Bergsvägen and Röekillorna, dating from early Maglemose culture to Neolithic Battle axe culture.The analysis shows that a closer study of taphonomic processes can be used to identify different structures as graves, offerings, religious and non religious contexts or parts of animals, probably put into the ground as waste.

I denna uppsats undersöks det svenska språket i öppen kommunikation på Internet för att se om det förekommer ett gemensamt språkbruk för både synkron och asynkron kommunikation, närmare bestämt för chatt respektive diskussionsforum.Bredvid uppsatsens huvudsakliga syfte följer också två frågor:- Skiljer sig det studerade språkbruket åt mellan olika åldersgrupper?- Vilken syn har chatt- och forumdeltagare på sitt eget skrivande i de olika sammanhangen?.

Frihandelsåren fr.o.m. ca 1846-1880 utgör bakgrund till studien. Med utgångspunkten att havre var det mest inkomstbringande sädesslaget på den internationella marknaden, används det här som en måttstock på kommersiellt beteende och medvetenhet. Nio skånska socknar med självägande bönder jämförs med varandra och med de tre gods som även ingår i stuiden. Tillsammans representerar de olika produktionssätt och geografiska områden..

ABSTRACT. In the late 1960?s all the wolves in Scandinavia went extinct in the wild due to extensive hunting. In 1983 two new wolves immigrated and founded, together with a third immigrant in 1991, the population that exists today. Due to the fact that the population originates from less than a handful of individuals, the genetic variation is small.
