this paper attempts to indicate that the two conceptual categories of evidentiality and epistemic modality are distinct although they may look similar; thus their corresponding adverbs also consist of separate subcategories of adverbs. to attain this goal, different data were gathered both from written and spoken sources and analyzed mostly with the help of semantic considerations in the framew...

We have investigated photosensitizing properties for porphrazine and eleven of its related derivatives based on time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. The modles have been divided into two categories based on the existence of CN functional group in one category but not in the other one. The other functional groups include H, CH3, F, CF3, C6H5, and C6F5 counterparts. The...

It seems likely that all languages make a distinction between words belonging to functional categories and those belonging to lexical categories, a distinction which roughly coincides with the sets of open and closed class items. Nouns, verbs and adjectives constitute the class of lexical categories in English, conjunctions and other sorts of particles fall into the class of functional categori...

We formulate an elementary condition on an involutive quantaloidQ under which there is a distributive law from the Cauchy completion monad over the symmetrisation comonad on the category of Q-enriched categories. For such quantaloids, which we call Cauchy-bilateral quantaloids, it follows that the Cauchy completion of any symmetric Q-enriched category is again symmetric. Examples include Lawver...

In English (1) tense is marked both on auxiliary do and the lexical verb. In (2), is occurs in two positions. In (3), the functional element no is realized in a relative clause, even though adult Japanese has no overt functional morpheme in this position. In (4), the ‘bound noun’ kes is likewise realized in a relative clause, even though no morpheme appears in this position in adult Korean. The...
