Small (6–9mm) and diminutive (1–5mm) colorectal polyps account for a large proportion of lesions found during colonoscopy. Recent evidence suggests that colonoscopy may be less effective at CRC prevention than previously thought [1...

ion representations such as differing prosodic templates (Crowhurst 1992, Prieto 1992) and constraint reranking (Colina 2003) have been proposed to account for these differences, as have different morphological parses (Bermúdez-Otero 2007). There are however, some concrete characteristics that are related to the dialectal differences such as whether the stem contains the diphthongs [je] and [we...
