PHONISCHE MITTEL BEI NIEDERLÄNDISCHEN ANTISPRICHWÖRTERN IM INTERNET
PHONIC MEANS OF DUTCH ANTI-PROVERBS ON THE INTERNET

Summary/Abstract: Traditional adages are nowadays treated as old-fashioned and met with opposition. As a result witty parodies of proverbs are being created for which a term has been coined by Wolfgang Mieder: anti-proverbs. Collections of such anti-proverbs appear not only in print but also more and more often on the Internet. In creating Dutch anti-proverbs phonic, morphological, syntactical or lexical means are used. To phonic means belong metatheses, substitutions, elisions and sound adjunctions.
