چکیده
The paper deals with the verb embracing double negation found in both Chamic and Bahnaric languages and with the question how it developed. We propose both an internal and external explanation. The former relates to what is called a ‘Jespersen Cycle’, a hypothesis about the renewal of single negation out of double negation, itself developing out of another single negation. The latter is language interference from Chamic to Bahnaric. We argue that the Jespersen Cycle hypothesis is more plausible for Chamic, thus revisiting Lee (1996), and that the language contact hypothesis makes more sense for Bahnaric, thus supporting a more general hypothesis about the direction of interference between the two families (Sidwell 2008: 261, 265).

Phenotypic Definition of the Progenitor Cells with Erythroid Differentiation Potential Present in Human Adult Blood
In Human Erythroid Massive Amplification (HEMA) cultures, AB mononuclear cells (MNC) generate 1-log more erythroid cells (EBs) than the corresponding CD34(pos) cells, suggesting that MNC may also contain CD34(neg) HPC. To clarify the phenotype of AB HPC which generate EBs in these cultures, flow cytometric profiling for CD34/CD36 expression, followed by isolation and functional characterization...
متن کاملDefinitive liquid-chromatographic demonstration that N-ethylglycine is the metabolite of lidocaine that interferes in the Kodak sarcosine oxidase-coupled method for creatinine.
Patients receiving lidocaine may show false increases of serum creatinine as assayed by the single-slide method on the Kodak Ektachem 700. Bissell et al. (Clin Chem 1987;33:951) suggested that this interference was due to oxidation of N-ethylglycine (NEG), a previously uncharacterized metabolite of lidocaine, by the sarcosine oxidase preparation used in the Ektachem creatinine slide. To investi...
متن کاملT Cells, a Multi-Reactive Tissue Subset: from Innate to Adaptive Altered-Self Surveillance
Human T cells are usually considered to contribute to fast-acting local immune responses. Their somewhat limited T cell receptor (TCR) diversity implies that large subsets of T cells share the capacity to respond to the same restricted set of antigens, rather than showing the fine specificity toward extremely diverse antigens, as is characteristic of T cells. This has been well demonstrated for...
متن کاملMurine hematopoietic progenitor cells with colony-forming or radioprotective capacity lack expression of the beta 2-integrin LFA-1.
Recently, we have demonstrated that antibodies that block the function of the beta2-integrin leukocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) completely abrogate the rapid mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC) with colony-forming and radioprotective capacity induced by interleukin-8 (IL-8) in mice. These findings suggested a direct inhibitory effect of these antibodies on LFA-1-me...
متن کاملSey and Electron Cloud Build-up with Neg Materials
A. Rossi, CERN, Geneva, Switzerland Abstract The LHC room temperature sections will be coated with non-evaporable getter (NEG) materials for, among other reasons, their properties of antimultipactor. Laboratory measurements of secondary electron yields (SEY) of TiZrV NEG coatings have shown that after 2 h heat treatment at 160 and 200 C, the maximum SEY decreases from 2 to below 1.4 and 1.1 res...
