Quality of Life: Application of the Concept and the Questionnaire for Evaluations in Food Systems
The concept of quality of life has a wide range of applications in differentscientific fields and realms in life. To evaluate the link between the quality of life and food systems, a survey was conducted with the actors of an organic municipality in Södertälje, Sweden. This municipality is a pioneer in sustainable food production and consumption, research, planning and innovation. The survey results provided for a better understanding of how individuals affect and are affected by food systems. Organic consumers perceive local and organic food as healthier and more environmentally friendly than its conventional counterpart, and this perception typically impacts individuals’ perception of well-being. Quality of life is an important factor to consider when evaluating food systems, since it provides a person-centred approach in food systems’ evaluations. A questionnaire has proven to be an effective instrument to measure individuals’ quality of life and can be applied to food system evaluations, to facilitate the transformation process towards sustainable food systems. Food system transformation is essential to provide a high quality of life for individuals and society.
Computational and Corpus-Based Phraseology
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Computational and Corpus-Based Phraseology, Europhras 2019, held in Malaga, Spain, in September 2019. The 31 full papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 116 submissions. The papers in this volume cover a number of topics including general corpus-based approaches to phraseology, phraseology in translation and cross-linguistic studies, phraseology in language teaching and learning, phraseology in specialized languages, phraseology in lexicography, cognitive approaches to phraseology, the computational treatment of multiword expressions, and the development, annotation, and exploitation of corpora for phraseological studies.
Transformative Driving Forces in Organic Food Systems: A Roadmap toward the Sustainable Development Goals
The organic food and farming movement has lately been portrayed as a food system in its own right since it contains all necessary sub-systems, consisting of food environments, distribution networks, processing, as well as production and supply, all of which are bounded by an organic guarantee system. This dissertation critically reviews the discourse on driving forces in food systems and argues that mindset is the primary predictor for food system outcomes. While “yield per hectare” and “go big or go out” narratives are still driving the food system’s overall trajectory, transformative worldviews are beginning to transcend the Dominant Social Paradigm. This dissertation wants to sh...
EPravopis 2021
Slovarski del pravopisa prinaša besedje, ki gradivsko ponazarja in deloma razširja pravopisna pravila. Iztočnice istega pravopisnega pravila, ki jih povezujemo v problemske sklope, predstavlja zbirka Pravopisne kategorije ePravopisa. Slovar se obvestilno osredinja na probleme izrazne ravnine jezika, predvsem zapisa, začetnice, pisanja skupaj ali narazen, pregibanja in besednih zvez. Vsi slovarski sestavki prinašajo tudi pregibnostno-naglasne vzorce. Obstoječi slovarski zbirki je bilo dodanih 1377 novih slovarskih sestavkov (na spletu je zdaj 8216 slovarskih sestavkov), več kot 700 obstoječih sestavkov pa je bilo dopolnjenih. V izdajo ePravopisa 2021 so na novo uvedene slovarske izto...
Multiword expressions
Multiword expressions (MWEs) are a challenge for both the natural language applications and the linguistic theory because they often defy the application of the machinery developed for free combinations where the default is that the meaning of an utterance can be predicted from its structure. There is a rich body of primarily descriptive work on MWEs for many European languages but comparative work is little. The volume brings together MWE experts to explore the benefits of a multilingual perspective on MWEs. The ten contributions in this volume look at MWEs in Bulgarian, English, French, German, Maori, Modern Greek, Romanian, Serbian, and Spanish. They discuss prominent issues in MWE research such as classification of MWEs, their formal grammatical modeling, and the description of individual MWE types from the point of view of different theoretical frameworks, such as Dependency Grammar, Generative Grammar, Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar, Lexical Functional Grammar, Lexicon Grammar.
Computational and Corpus-Based Phraseology
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the International Conference on Computational and Corpus-Based Phraseology, Europhras 2017, held in London, UK, in November 2017. The 31 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions and are organized into the following thematic sessions: Phraseology in translation and contrastive studies, Lexicography and terminography, Exploitation of corpora in phraseological studies, Development of corpora for phraseological studies, Phraseology and language learning, Cognitive and cultural aspects of phraseology, Theoretical and descriptive approaches to phraseology, and Computational approaches to phraseology. The chapter 'Frequency Consolidation Among Word N-Grams' is available open access under a CC BY 4.0 license.
The Oxford Guide to Practical Lexicography
This is a down-to-earth, 'how to do it' textbook on the making of dictionaries. Written by professional lexicographers with over seventy years' experience between them, the book presents a step-by-step course for the training of lexicographers in all settings, including publishing houses, colleges, and universities world-wide, and for the teaching of lexicography as an academic discipline. It takes readers through the processes of designing, collecting, and annotating a corpus of texts; shows how to analyse the data in order to extract the relevant information; and demonstrates how these findings are drawn together in the semantic, grammatical, and pedagogic components that make up an entry....
Pattern Grammar
This book describes an approach to lexis and grammar based on the concept of phraseology and of language patterning arising from work on large corpora. The notion of 'pattern' as a systematic way of dealing with the interface between lexis and grammar was used in Collins Cobuild English Dictionary (1995) and in the two books in the Collins Cobuild Grammar Patterns series (1996; 1998). This volume describes the research that led to these publications, and explores the theoretical and practical implications of the research. The first chapter sets the work in the context of work on phraseology. The next two chapters give several examples of patterns and how they are identified. Chapters 4 and 5...
