Among 173 fatally injured bicyclists, the head or neck was region most seriously in 86%. The frequency of injury to and nonsurvivable (AIS 6) were highest among cases aged 16 years less. Vertebral fractures occurred often cervical vertebra (C1) progressively less lower vertebrae. relationship between vertebral position fracture likelihood is approximately log linear. Bicyclists with a relatively long time from death tended be older persons survivable injuries. They died complications...
Abstract While the construct of rule as a manipulation purely formal properties language has been widely abandoned in both and functional linguistics, it persists, though with diminished importance, field second acquisition. This is true even form‐focused instruction, including focus‐on‐form, which emphasizes meaning classroom focus element structure. paper illustrates meaningfulness grammar, where treatment often appealed to such rules; identifies areas overlap between what identified by...
Abstract Background Older individuals and adults with certain chronic or immunocompromising health conditions are at increased risk of severe respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease. Methods In this phase 3 randomized trial RSVpreF safety immunogenicity in 18–59-year-olds high RSV disease, participants were 2:1 to 1 (120 µg) placebo dose. Primary endpoints included reactogenicity events adverse (AEs) through 7 days month after vaccination, respectively, serious AEs (SAEs) newly diagnosed...
In the debate over proper roles in linguistics of substance and structure, Columbia School has taken an explicit position: that both structure are required for a successful analysis. particular linguistic problem, relevant phonetic or semantic must be identified, structural, value, relations within it specified, accounting distribution forms discourse. The rationale this position was given by founder school, William Diver, 1974 William. [1974] 2012. “Substance Value Linguistic Analysis.”...
Although the nominative case has typically been viewed as a syntactic device marking subject of verb sentence, that in Latin must instead be understood communicative tool operating at discourse level if its entire distribution is to accounted for. Attested instances without any force this shift. Nominatives with and verbs alike can for concentration attention treated operative factor. Once function properly understood, distinction from other grammatical morphology (verb forms demonstrative...
Rear view mirrors mounted on the sides of vans and small trucks may extend beyond vehicles pose a hazard to other road users. Case reports two bicyclists fatally injured by extended rear are presented.
The problem undertaken here is to account for the relational placement in English of words traditionally known as adjectives and nouns. Two distinct orders are examined signals discrete meanings: one where characterizing word preposed characterized word, long hair, other it postposed, hair long. Distribution two attested text accounted under hypothesis that an Assertion Characterization made weaker or stronger, respectively, through this order. With these meanings, a writer draws distinction...
This is a position paper aimed at the interface between meaning-oriented linguistics generally and instructed language learning. The alliance usage-based form-focused instruction in teaching stands to benefit from advances on both sides: recognition by theoretical linguists that systematic meanings of grammatical forms are responsible for observed, emerging patterns usage; greater willingness part advocates grammar engage focusing upon individual, meaningful forms, as distinct unanalyzed,...
