Alongside this expansion is proposed functions has been the identification of multiple target protein...

Semantic Prosody: Its Knowledge and Appropriate Selection of Equivalents

In translation, choosing appropriate equivalent is essential to convey the right message from source-text to target-text, and one of the issues that may have a determinative role in appropriate equivalent choice is the semantic prosody (SP) behavior of words and the relation existing between the SP of a word and semantic senses (i.e. negativity, positivity or neutrality) of its collocations in ...
