writing as a productive skill requires practice in the basic sub-skills of vocabulary and grammar. in fact, grammar has been viewed as the core of programs in writing classes to help the students put the elements of sentence together and combine sentences of specific lengths to come up with an error-free work of art. conceptualizing l2 writing in this way introduces writing as a product and enc...

This pot experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of ordinary and nano forms of zinc oxide on growth and ion content of four wheat cultivars (Niknejad, Iniya, Rowshan and Moghan2) under three salinity levels (0, 75 and 150 mM NaCl). In this experiment, shoot and root dry weight, and concentration of potassium, sodium and zinc in shoots were measured. Results showed that with an incre...

abstract following innovations in the field of elt, a new topic which has recently attracted a lot of attention is metaphor analysis. although this area of research is still in its infancy in elt, it seems that the idea can shed more light on the puzzle of english language learning and teaching. therefore, the major aim of this study is to analyze language learning and teaching in formal a...

‏‎despite the different criticisms on contrastive analysis it has been proved that the results of it(when processed) can be useful in a tefl environment, specially at the level of phonology.this study is an attempt to compare and contrast the sound systems of kurdish and english for pedagogical aims.the consonants,vowels,stress and intonation of the two languages are described by the same model...

The effects of different levels of nitrogen (100, 200, 300 and 400 mg/L) and potassium (125, 250 and 375 mg/L) on yield and leaf N and K concentrations of tomato were investigated in perlit culture using a factorial randomized design with three replications. The highest fruit yield was obtained with 200 mg/L N. Higher levels of nitrogen decreased tomato yield. With increasing nitrogen concentra...

all analytical methods are generally based on the measurement of a parameter or parameters which are somehow related to the concentration of the species.an ideal analytical method is one in which the concentration of a species can be measured to a high degree precision and accuracy and with a high sensitivity. unfortunately finding such a method is very difficult or sometimes even impossible.in...
