This essay discusses two aspects of the retention of pragmatic text functions in translation. The functionalist approach that was used focuses on achieving congruence between the author’s intended function and the perception of the reader, i.e., the target text’s actual function. The first aim was to examine whether a focus on text functions can be beneficial when translating terminology. The s...

(Way & Gough, 2005) demonstrate that their Marker-based EBMT system is capable of outperforming a word-based SMT system trained on reasonably large data sets. (Groves & Way, 2005) take this a stage further and demonstrate that while the EBMT system also outperforms a phrase-based SMT (PBSMT) system, a hybrid ‘example-based SMT’ system incorporating marker chunks and SMT sub-sentential alignment...

I N the original report on Salmonella typhimurium-Salmonella montevideo hybrids (TM hybrids) from this laboratory, it was noted that incorporation of montevideo genic material into the ilu (isoleucine-valine) region of the Salmonella typhimurium chromosome always involved the four known loci of the ilv cluster (GLATZER, LABRIE and ARMSTRONG 1966). The lack of evidence for “partial hybridity,” e...

Theoretically significant relationships between different categories of phenomena remain undetected because of the division of disciplinary labor. The research domains of particular subdisciplines are often bounded by common sense notions of societal sectors. In this paper, I discuss how sector-specific studies of a wide range of ‘wellness’ practices fail to recognize and address a phenomenon t...

Current red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) breeding methods for quantitative traits consist almost entirely of recurrent phenotypic selection. In many species, improved cultivars have been achieved through hybrid breeding methods, especially for highly nonadditive traits. Hybrid methods have previously been studied and developed in red clover; inbreeding depression was a hindrance to the utilit...
