The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of two strategies of explicit teaching of economic terms on learners' vocabulary learning and retention. In the first explicit strategy, known as 'etymological elaboration', the focus was on presenting conceptual metaphors through 'identify-the-source' tasks, that is, providing the learners with the source domains underlying the metaphors,...

The present study was carried out with the purpose of examining the role of metaphorical language in the critical discourse analysis (CDA) of political texts based on a modern framework postulated by Kövecses (2015). The corpus of the study consisted of thirty-thousand words chosen as a textual sample to see which source conceptual domains are used and what generic/discursive attributes emerge ...

This paper offers a preliminary study of how knowledge may be represented differently in different languages. In particular, we account for the contrast between English and Chinese when identical target domain knowledge is represented with two different, yet related, source domains in each language. We incorporate corpora analysis in English and Chinese with SUMO to delimit the source domains i...

We explore the connection between supports of equilibrium measures and quadrature identities, especially in case point sources added to external field Q(z)=|z|2p with p∈N. Along way, we describe some domains respect weighted area measure |z|2pdAz complex boundary |z|−2pdz.

Abstract We present new Sr-Nd-Pb-Hf isotopic data on mafic lavas from the Sivas, Develida?, Erciyes, and Erkilet volcanic complexes in central Turkey Tendürek eastern to evaluate mantle sources for volcanism context of geodynamic evolution Anatolian microplate. Early Miocene through Quaternary Western Anatolia latest activity Central were dominated by contributions two distinct source regions: ...

—In the context of supervised learning techniques, it can be desirable to utilize existing prior knowledge from a source domain estimate target variable in by exploiting concept adaptation. This is done alleviate costly compilation knowledge, i.e., training data. Here, our goal select single for adaptation multiple potentially helpful but unlabeled domains. The data solely obtained if was ident...
