Mineral X, a new thalcusite homologue from the Ilímaussaq complex, South Greenland
Authors: Møller Sven Karup , Makovicky Emil
Published: January 2021

Mineral X is assumed to be a new member of the thalcusite homologous series with the structural formula TlCu2NS2N+1 with N=1.5. It was found in loose ussingite-analcime boulders on the Taseq slope towards the Narsaq Elv in the northern part of the Ilímaussaq complex in South Greenland in association with chalcothallite, cuprostibite, galena, sphalerite, bornite, antimonian silver and seinäjokite.

Supergene alteration has resulted in a number of secondary Cu-Sb-minerals. The primary ore minerals appear to have crystallized contemporaneously under low S-fugacities.
Coastal evolution of a cuspate foreland (Flakket, Anholt, Denmark) between 2006 and 2010.
Authors: Clemmensen Lars B. , Bendixen Mette , Nielsen Lars , Jensen Sabrina , Schrøder Louise
Published: January 2021

Flakket is a cuspate marine foreland on the north coast of Anholt in the Kattegat sea. It is composed of a number of gravel-rich beach ridges typically covered by aeolian sand and intervening swales and wetlands including a relatively large lagoon. The most recent evolution of the coastline of this marine foreland between May 2006 and September 2010 is documented in this paper.

Flakket is under erosion on its northwestern side, which has retreated up to 40 m during the observation period. The shoreline of the northeastern side of the beach-ridge plain moved up to 70 m in a seaward direction during the same period.
New theropod, thyreophoran, and small sauropod tracks from the Middle Jurassic Bagå Formation, Bornholm, Denmark
Authors: Milan Jesper
Published: January 2021

Three new dinosaur tracks are described from the Middle Jurassic Bagå Formation of Bornholm, Denmark. The tracks are all preserved as natural casts on the underside of fluvial sandstone blocks originating from the old Hasle Klinkefabrik’s clay pit, now called Pyritsøen.

The new tracks are from a medium-sized theropod, a thyreophoran, and a small sauropod. Together with a thyreophoran track and large sauropod tracks described in 2005, the Middle Jurassic dinosaur fauna of Bornholm now comprises theropods, two sizes of sauropods and at least one type of thyreophoran dinosaur. This is important additional data for the very scarce Middle Jurassic dinosaurian skeletal record of Europe.
Remains of Saurichthys (Pisces, Actinopterygii) from the Early Triassic Wordie Creek Formation of East Greenland
Authors: Kogan I.
Published: January 2021

Previously undescribed specimens of Saurichthys from the basal part of the Early Triassic Wordie Creek Formation (Griesbachian) of East Greenland demonstrate a remarkably complete squamation
especially in the anterior trunk portion.

Scales of the mid-lateral row are high and those of the mid-dorsal and mid-ventral rows broad and conspicuous by having a pronounced longitudinal keel on their inner surface; additional dorso-lateral and ventro-lateral scale rows are present. This pattern resembles that of Saurichthys dayi from the Early Triassic of Alberta and British Columbia. Differences in fin morphology suggest, however, that the Greenland form is probably not conspecific.

A second Early Triassic species of Saurichthys occurring in East Greenland probably comes from a higher stratigraphic level (late Griesbachian to early Dienerian) with a different ichthyofaunal composition.
Bio- and chemostratigraphic assessment of carbon isotope records across the Triassic–Jurassic boundary at Csővár quarry (Hungary) and Kendlbachgraben (Austria) and implications for global correlations
Authors: Korte Christoph , Kozur Heinz W.
Published: January 2021

Carbon isotope trends are useful for stratigraphic correlation, especially for time intervals when major perturbations of the global carbon cycle occurred. Such perturbations have been documented for the Triassic–Jurassic (T–J) boundary, and several successions from this time interval are characterized by (1) an initial negative excursion, followed by (2) a pronounced positive excursion and a subsequent (3) main negative carbon isotope excursion.

These features, however, are not present in all T–J boundary sections, or the stratigraphic position of the positive or the main negative excursion has variable locations. In the present study, we analysed carbon isotopes in bulk carbonate from the pelagic Csővár quarry section in Hungary and from the intra-platform basin to shallow subtidal marine Kendlbachgraben section in Austria. Both T–J boundary successions are biostratigraphically well controlled enabling – with particular focus on the bio- and chemostratigraphy of other T–J boundary sections – correlation of the carbon isotope trends.

This evaluation shows that the apex of the initial negative δ13C excursion occurred slightly, but distinctly, below the mass extinction event and represents an excellent stratigraphic correlation tool.
Genesis of the glaciotectonic thrust-fault complex at Halk Hoved, southern Denmark.
Authors: Madsen Tillie M.
Published: January 2021

The coastal cliff of Halk Hoved, southern Jutland, Denmark, is a major glaciotectonic complex formed by proglacial deformation of the North-East (NE) advance from the Scandinavian Ice Sheet in Late Weichselian. We describe and interpret the pre-, syn- and post-tectonic sedimentary successions and macro-scale architecture of this complex.
Initially, the Lillebælt Till Formation (unit 1) and the overlying glaciofluvial sediments (unit 2) were deposited during the Warthe glaciation in Late Saalian. During the NE advance towards the Main Stationary Line (MSL) in Late Weichselian, these sediments were pushed along a décollement surface whereby a thrust-fault complex was formed. In a cross section the complex extends for more than 900 m and consists of eighteen c. 15–20 m thick thrust sheets stacked by piggyback thrusting. Accumulated displacement amounts to at least 235 m along thrust faults dipping at 30–40° towards N-NE, resulting in at least 24% glaciotectonic shortening of the complex.
Deformation was presumably facilitated by elevated pore-water pressure in the Lillebælt Till Formation. As the compressive stress exceeded the shear strength of the weakened till, failure occurred, and a décollement horizon formed along the lithological boundary between the Lillebælt Till Formation and the underlying aquifer. During deformation, piggyback basins formed wherein sediments of hyperconcentrated flow (unit 3) and glaciolacustrine diamicton (unit 4) were deposited.
The whole thrust-fault complex and the intervening sediments were truncated subglacially as the NE advance finally overrode the complex. Following the retreat of the NE advance, a succession of glaciofluvial sediments (unit 5) and finally the East Jylland Till Formation (unit 6) were deposited during the advance of the Young Baltic Ice Sheet. The Halk Hoved thrust-fault complex is a prominent example of glaciotectonism at the southern fringe of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet.
Stratigraphy and age of the Eocene Igtertivâ Formation basalts, alkaline pebbles and sediments of the Kap Dalton Group in the graben at Kap Dalton, East Greenland
Authors: Larsen Lotte Melchior , Sørensen Erik Vest , Watt W. Stuart , Pedersen Asger Ken , Duncan Robert A.
Published: January 2021

A NE–SW-trending graben at Kap Dalton on the Blosseville Kyst contains an at least 600 m thick succession of Eocene basalt lavas and sediments. The succession has been investigated by new field work, geochemical analysis and radiometric dating by the 40Ar-39Ar incremental heating method.

The results show that the volcanic succession comprises about 220 m of the uppermost plateau basalt formation, the Skrænterne Formation. This is separated from the overlying lava flows of the Igtertivâ Formation by 7 m of sediments that represent a period of around six million years. The two formations can be distinguished by different trace element ratios.

The Igtertivâ Formation comprises an at least 300 m thick main succession of flows dated to 49.09 ± 0.48 Ma, overlain by sediments of the Bopladsdalen Formation. A basal conglomerate in the sediments contains pebbles of alkaline igneous rocks of which three were dated at 49.17 ± 0.35 Ma, 47.60 ± 0.25 Ma, and 46.98 ± 0.24 Ma. The sediments are thus younger than 47 Ma. Above 30 m of sediments occur two Igtertivâ Formation lava flows dated to 43.77 ± 1.08 Ma.

The overlying sediments of the Bopladsdalen and Krabbedalen Formations are therefore not older than about 44 Ma and palynological evidence shows that they are also not much younger than this. Use of the Geological Time Scale 2012 has resulted in good agreement between radiometric and palynological ages.

The Igtertivâ Formation lava flows were fed from a regional coast-parallel dyke swarm indicating a new rifting episode at 49–44 Ma. This coincides with a major mid-Eocene plate reorganisation event in the North Atlantic and the start of northward-propagation of the Reykjanes Ridge through the continent. The Igtertivâ rift may have been directly instrumental for the initiation of this process.
Associated skeletal and dental remains of a fossil odontaspidid shark (Elasmobranchii: Lamniformes)from the Middle Eocene Lillebælt Clay Formation in Denmark

Published: January 2021

A set of associated vertebrae and teeth of a fossil shark was collected from the lower Lutetian (Middle Eocene) part of the Lillebælt Clay Formation in Denmark.

Its vertebral morphology indicates that the individual belongs to an odontaspidid lamniform shark. Although it is here identified as Odontaspididae indet., its tooth morphology suggests that the fossil shark possibly belongs to an undescribed taxon closely allied to Odontaspis or Palaeohypotodus.

Based on comparisons with extant Odontaspis, the fossil individual possibly measured about 333 cm in total length. The disarticulated nature of the specimen in a low-energy deposit indicates that the shark carcass must have been lying on the sea floor for some time before its burial. The fossil individual was found along with a possible shed tooth of another indeterminate odontaspidid taxon.
New data on eudialyte decomposition inerals from kakortokites and associated pegmatites of the Ilímaussaq complex, South Greenland*
Authors: Møller S. Karup , Hansen J. Rose
Published: January 2021

A suite of samples with eudialyte and eudialyte decomposition minerals from the kakortokite and associated pegmatites of the Ilímaussaq complex in South Greenland has been investigated by electron microprobe analysis.

Extensive decomposition of eudialyte has resulted in the formation of catapleiite as host for a number of rare and hitherto unknown REE minerals besides known minerals such as monazite and kainosite.

Mineral A1 is present in very small amounts in nearly all eudialyte decomposition aggregates and comprises two varieties: Ca-rich A1 with composition HCa3REE6(SiO4)6(F◊) and presumed apatite structure, and Ca-poor A1 with composition (Fe,Mn,Ca)1.5REE6Si6FO22 and unknown structure.

Mineral A2 with composition (Ca,Fe)1.2REE4Si6O19−y(OH)2y · nH2O is indistinguishable from A1 in EMP-backscattered light and has only been found at a limited number of localities. Mineral A2 also occurs as a primary mineral at one locality.

Additional rare and new REE-minerals are mineral A3 with composition Na0.2Ca0.6Fe0.2Mn0.5 Al0.5REE2.8Si6F0.5O)18-y(OH)2y · nH2O; mineral Uk2 with composition REE2.00F1.50O2.25-y(OH)2y · nH2O; mineral Uk3 with composition CaREE4O7-yOH)2y · nH2O; and mineral Y1 with composition Na2Ca4Y2.7REE1.3F18 (OH)4. The Ce:(Y+La+Pr+Nd+Sm+Gd) molar ratio for A1, A2, A3, Uk2, Uk3 and monazite is close to 1:1.

Characteristic for A1, A2 and monazite are substantial solid solutions between La and (Pr+Nd+Sm+Gd) with slowly increasing content of Ce as the content of La increases. A similar pattern does not exist for the REE in fresh eudialyte. Kainosite, identified in one decomposition aggregate, has not previously been found in the Ilímaussaq complex.

Aviation transport development trends in Ukraine
Authors: KYRYLENKO Oksana , NOVAK Valentyna , RAZUMOVA Kateryna , MOSTENSKA Tetiana
Published: January 2021

The paper substantiates the number of passenger flows by different modes of transport for the last 40 years and analyzes passenger flows by Ukrainian airlines. The share of different types of transport in the total volume of passenger traffic during the years of independence of Ukraine is compared, and the corresponding conclusions concerning tendencies of development of air transport in Ukraine are made. It has been proven that high-income passengers remain the main type of passengers on domestic routes. Further growth in demand will depend on the growth of the country's economy, airline tariff policy, frequency of flights and ease of connections.
The significant growth of passenger traffic in the international connection is partly explained by the trends that began in 1990. Following Ukraine's declaration of independence, imports of imported goods have increased significantly and demand for travel abroad has grown significantly. It should also be noted that the transport infrastructure of Ukraine allows to reach any point of the country using terrestrial modes of transport, which are significantly cheaper than aviation. It is no wonder, therefore, that most domestic airlines are focused on international transportation. Considerable potential for the development of international flights lies directly in the geographical location of the country, which is capable of providing high transit passenger traffic.
Analyzing the work of Central European airports, it should be noted that Ukraine was the leader in the growth of passenger traffic. Airports of Ukraine served 10.7 mln passengers in six months, which is 20 % more than in the same period last year. In terms of passengers number carried, Ukraine came second after Poland – 22.3 mln passengers. Romania is in third place with 10.5 mln passengers.
The concept of corruption risks
Authors: HOLOVACH Tetiana
Published: January 2021

There are valid ratified international instruments at the global level in Ukraine, namely the Criminal Convention for the Suppression of Corruption, and the United Nations Convention against Corruption, the principles of which are fundamental for national law. Thus, according to articles 5 and 6 of the UN Convention against Corruption, member states must develop and implement effective coordinated anti-corruption policies.
The problem of overcoming corruption in Ukraine is one of the most pressing. According to the Sustainable Development Strategies "Ukraine 2020", the main purpose of anti-corruption reform is to significantly reduce corruption in Ukraine, reduce the state budget and business losses due to corruption, and to increase Ukraine's position in international rankings, that assess the corruption level. The paper analyzes the main approaches of theorists and analysts to the definition of "corruption risks".
The concepts of "corruption" and "corruption risks" are studied by scientists of various specialties, and some of them consider it necessary to supplement, expand, or conversely reduce, partially change the meaning of the concept, or link it to a specific area of officials activity. We are not against discussion and research, as we know in dialogue (in dispute) the truth is born. Simultaneously the diversity of scientific views of key concepts complicates the development of methods for identifying corruption risks.
In the paper the position is expressed that bringing the concept of "corruption risks" to the current normative and legal framework can be a starting point, will accelerate and focus researches on the process of finding an effective mechanism (methodology) for their detection.
In our opinion, general concept of activity risk has the central value for defining the special concept of "corruption risks". A specific feature for defining the concept of "corruption risks" is the general concept of "corruption". Guided by the approach, as "corruption risks" should be understood as normative and legal, organizational and other circumstances in the activity of persons, who perform organizational and administrative or administrative and economic functions, the implementation of which includes the possibility of committing corruption offenses.

Published: January 2021

The research aim was to analyse the influence of velocity and size of markers
on the accuracy of motion capture measurement utilising image processing with
the use of OpenCV. On the basis of the obtained results, the usefulness of the
applied measurement method in studying the kinematics of the human body
while driving operating a wheelchair was determined. This article presents the
test results for a low-budget motion capture measurement system for testing
the kinematics of the human body in a single plane. The tested measuring
system includes a standard activity camera Xiaomi Yi4K, expanded polystyrene
markers with printed ArUco codes, and original software for marker position
detection developed by the author. The analysis of the measurement method
with regard to its applicability in biomechanical studies has highlighted several
key factors: the number of measuring points, measurement accuracy expressed
as a relative error and the limit velocity at which the marker trajectory is correctly
represented. The article shows that the limit velocity of the marker is 2.2 m/s
for 50x50 mm markers and 1.4 m/s for 30x30 mm markers. The number of
measured points ranged from 233 to 2,457 depending on the marker velocity.
The relative error did not exceed 5% for the marker velocities and thus provided
a correct representation of its trajectory.

The threat to health and social life resulting from the spread of the Sars-CoV-2
coronavirus causing the COVID-19 disease has influenced people's awareness of
the need to maintain appropriate hygiene conditions in every area of life. The use
of public bathrooms and toilets has also become a controversial topic. The aim
of the study was to investigate the risks associated with the use of bathrooms,
taking into account the potential risk of coronavirus infection. Another goal was
to analyse and indicate the possibilities of protection as well as the application
of design solutions in order to maintain appropriate hygienic and healthy
conditions in these spaces. As a result of the research, factors and precautions
that should be taken into account in the process of designing and implementing
these facilities were identified. Design possibilities were examined in the field
of the functional and spatial arrangement of bathrooms, and the selection of
material solutions, elements of equipment, fittings and technical installations
with a particular emphasis on potential threats related to bacteria and viruses,
including coronavirus in public bathrooms. Design criteria for bathrooms have
been defined, taking into account potential health and social life hazards and the
possibility of their elimination thanks to the use of available knowledge, modern
technology and innovation.

Published: January 2021

The effect of learning depends on many factors, among the most important of which are the suitability of a plan for conducting practical exercises and laboratory works that most accurately reflects the purposes and didactic units of the course being studied, and a sufficient level of provision of practical training with methodological guidelines and software tools. Decisions regarding the choice of all these elements depend on a number of conditions, such as the rules and standards in force of a particular educational environment, the format of training, the students’ stuff, and others. The paper proposes a framework generalized plan for conducting laboratory workshops on modeling and simulation courses, summarizing the author's methodological experience. The main prerequisites and principles underlying the composition of the workshops are presented. The set of tools used to perform practical tasks is characterized. Brief characteristics of the goals of each practical task of the generalized plan, the setting of tasks and the software tools used to solve them are given. The ideas and principles presented in the paper can be useful for teachers planning practical lessons on modeling and simulation as well as for developing their methodological and instrumental support.
Influence of additional hierarchical levels on the working characteristics of distributed models
Authors:   Tver State Technical University, Veselov Alexey A.
Published: January 2021

In designing modern computer equipment and digital electronics, the use of simulation models is of great importance. At first, monolithic models were widely used for this. However, they worked well only when their size was relatively small. Because of it developers began to refuse gradually use of monolithic models and to pass to use of the distributed models allowing to increase their speed and to expand borders of their admissible sizes. At the same time, they begin to pay special attention to hierarchical distributed models, which provide the opportunity to investigate the behavior of the created devices at different levels of detail. Similar models made it possible to noticeably expand the permissible boundaries of their sizes and increase the speed of work. However, such distributed models have the disadvantage that their effectiveness is noticeably dependent not only on the number of components included in their composition, but also on the size of these components. he paper presents the results of a study of the effect of introducing an additional upper hierarchical level on the performance of distributed models based on Petri networks. The use of such a method of modifying distributed models leads to an increase in their speed in a wide range of changes in their sizes. At the same time, the most significant effect achieved in distributed models containing a large number of small components. The maximum speed of the thus modified models can be an order of magnitude higher than that of the non-modified ones. As a result, in addition to the overall increase in the efficiency of the modified hierarchical distributed models, this also led to a significant equalization of the performance of the modified distributed models with subordinate components of different sizes.

Noise in Telecommunication: Different Types and Methods of dealing with Noise
Authors: Mirzaev Akramjon , Zoteev Sanjar
Published: January 2021

This article discusses noise in telecommunications: different types and methods of dealing with noise. Noise is arguably a very hated problem because it can interfere with the quality of signal reception and also the reproduction of the signal that will be transmitted. Not only that, but noise can also limit the range of the system to a certain emission power and can affect the sensitivity and sensitivity of the reception signal. Even in some cases, noise can also result in a reduction in the bandwidth of a system. Of course, we've all felt how annoying the noise effect is. For example, when listening to the radio, a hissing sound appears on the loudspeaker due to noise. To overcome noise, it is divided into passive noise control and active noise control. Passive noise control is an effort to overcome noise using components that do not require power. Generally passive noise control uses soundproof materials that act as insulation against noise. The method most commonly used to overcome noise is through increasing the gain. The noise is generally in a specific sound area. Hiss is on high frequencies, while noise and hum are on low frequencies. This is the principle underlying the noise reduction method.

В работе в ананлитическом виде определяется распределение полей напряжений в эксцентрической трубе, находящейся под действием внутреннего давления. Материал трубы моделировался средой, обладающей наследственно стареющими упругопластическими свойствами. Решение задачи проводилось в рамках метода возмущений. За малый параметр бралась величина эксцентриситета. В качестве невозмущенного состояния принималось осесимметричное упругопластическое напряженное состояние трубы, определенное с учетом возраста и истории нагружения материала. В результате моделирования выведено уравнение для определения формы и размера границы раздела упругой и пластичесой зон в трубе с эксцентриситетом, а также получены аналитические выражения для компонент напряжений в каждой из областей деформирования.

In this work, the distribution of stress fields in an eccentric pipe under the action of internal pressure is determined in an analytical form. The pipe material was modeled by a medium with hereditarily aging elastoplastic properties. The problem was solved within the framework of the perturbation method. The eccentricity value was taken as a small parameter. The unperturbed state was taken to be the axisymmetric elastoplastic stress state of the pipe, determined taking into account the age and loading history of the material. As a result of modeling, an equation was derived to determine the shape and size of the interface between the elastic and plastic zones in a pipe with eccentricity, and analytical expressions were obtained for the stress components in each of the deformation regions.

The Minhe Monguors are a Mongolic ethnicity numbering around 30,000people, who live in Qinghai 青海 and Gansu 甘肃 provinces in China.Although a few Western and Chinese scholars have already conducted research among this group from the early 20th century up to the present day,they are still little known in the international scholarly world, and even lessknown in Hungary. In this paper, based on the studies of Louis M. J. Schram(mid-20 th century) and Kevin Stuart (late 20 th century), with additional observations I made during my field research in 2007, I discuss Minhe Monguors’burial practices. I also make some remarks on the similarities and differencesbetween the practices of the Minhe Monguors and the Mongols of Mongolia,and interpret the customs that are not of Mongolian origin.
Jog a középkori Japánban

Learning about a culture by analysing the legal system of the state coulddeepen our understanding of that country, in the present case, Japan. Thereare already countless researches conducted on the current legal system orconstitution of Japan in Hungary, as well as in other Western countries. However, there is not much information about the legal system of the historicalperiods of Japan. Nevertheless, these historical periods should not be forgotten. For example, in medieval Japan a new legal system was born. It was freefrom foreign influence and bared marks of the social structure and customsof that period. This legal system was called bukehō 武家法, “law of thewarrior families”. The purpose of my research is to present the Kamakura 鎌倉 period’s bukehō, an independent legal system established by the warriorclass. I researched the subject as a scholar student in Japan, principally usingJapanese language materials.In my paper, first I introduce the development of the Kamakura shogunateand its main offices. In the next section, I examine the characteristics of themedieval Japanese law in general. In the last part, I focus on the bukehō ofthe Kamakura period. I look at the various rules and features of several areasof law such as sources of law, civil and penal law, and the types of lawsuits.
Örökké a múlt árnyékában?
Authors: Kovács Bence Miklós

The 35-years-long Japanese colonial period left a century-long wound onthe South Korean-Japanese relations. It took two decades from the end ofWorld War II to re-establish basic diplomatic relations, then it took more longdecades to initiate a gradual approach. Even seventy years after the end ofWorld War II, relations between the two countries are so unstable and fragile that this slow progress can be easily wiped out by a new conflict causedby a single thoughtless statement. Preserving this situation and this vulnerability is partly artificially generated as some political actors gain benefitsfrom the legitimating power of nationalism and they use the media to achievethis goal. Due to the fact that politics is the only segment with an insignificant progress between the two countries in the last decade, it is an odd-oneout in the South Korean-Japanese relations, if we compare it to the development of economic or cultural cooperation. However, this intriguing circumstance can be overwritten by two changing factors. The first but slower oneis the change of generations; however, in this case media and its influencing capacity shouldnot be forgotten. The other, much faster and more efficient factor is, as far as it serves state interests, mediation and lobby from theUnited States, which has just recently shown its real significance on this topic.

A Meiji-kori japán nyelv forrásai
Authors: Albeker András Zsigmond
Published: January 2021

While the stenographic records of the Meiji era have been analyzed in thecontext of linguistic research into the unification of the spoken and writtenlanguage (gembun icchi 言文一致), vocabulary and grammar, there is somedebate as to the value of these records. This paper aims to clarify what kinds of difference occurred in the process of translating and typing the shorthand symbols into magazines andnewspapers. It has become clear that the stenographed speeches published in newspapers and magazines were not faithful reproductions of the original texts. Tomake it easier for the reader to understand, mistakes were rectified in the transcribing process, words and word forms were corrected by the stenographer and/or the editor. It seems that- as linguistic material - the value of a stenographic record ishigher than that of a shorthand book. However, very few shorthand manuscripts have so far been confirmed and in genre they are closer to stenographed speeches. We can assume that if a shorthand manuscript such as rakugo落語 or the Imperial Congressional Record were to be discovered, our understanding of the Meiji period Japanese language would be further enhanced.
A hangos olvasás szerepe a kiejtés tanításában a kínai mint idegen nyelv oktatása során
Authors: Ye Qiuyue
Published: January 2021

This paper discusses the use of reading aloud as a technique in the teaching of pronunciation to learners of Chinese as a foreign language, emphasizing the importance of identifying and catering for the learners’ own attitudes. A questionnaire-based survey of university-level learners reveals an interesting difference between their rational belief in the usefulness of reading aloud and their emotional reactions to the idea. On the basis of these findings, the paper describes ways of including reading aloud in Chinese language courses without making the experience too threatening.
A ryūkyūi nyelv revitalizációja hagyományos tanórai környezetben
Authors: Hidvégi Zsófia
Published: January 2021

UNESCO has acknowledged the six main Ryūkyūan languages as definitely and severely endangered languages. The language community is trying to halt and reverse the advanced language shift and attrition with the help of programs widely used in other language revitalisation movements. Among the most common choices for language transmission are traditional language courses, which require textbooks and dictionaries. These teaching materials should be adapted to the culture and social background of the language to be revitalised. This paper aims to examine the recently published textbooks and the orthography they use.
A japán jūdō terminológia magyar fordításának problémái
Authors: Richárd Gottner Gábor
Published: January 2021

Kōdōkan jūdō is the first Japanese martial art ever introduced in Hungary, at the beginning of the twentieth century. In order to make jūdō popular among the general public, it was necessary to translate the cryptic Japanese names of the techniques to more familiar Hungarian terms, thus Hungarian jūdōterminology was born. Since then, nearly a century has passed, and partly because of the terminology, (which had no linguistic foundations but was created on the basis of mere observation by Hungarian practitioners), jūdō has drifted away from its authentic Japanese roots. In this study, I introduce the main translational errors affecting the terminology and try to offer some solutions favouring a more accurate Hungarian jūdō-terminology for the future.

Diversity of the genus Sugiyamaella and description of two new species from rotting wood in China
Authors: Shi Cheng-Feng , Zhang Kai-Hong , Chai Chun-Yue , Yan Zhen-Li , Hui Feng-Li
Published: January 2021

Species of the genus Sugiyamaella (Trichomonascaceae, Saccharomycetales), found in rotting wood in China, were investigated using morphology and the molecular phylogeny of a combined ITS and nrLSU dataset. Nine taxa were collected in China: two were new species (viz. Sugiyamaella chuxiongsp. nov. and S. yunanensissp. nov.) and seven were known species, S. americana, S. ayubii, S. novakii, S. paludigena, S. valenteae, S. valdiviana and S. xiaguanensis. The two new species are illustrated and their morphology and phylogenetic relationships with other Sugiyamaella species are discussed. Our results indicate a potentially great diversity of Sugiyamaella spp. inhabiting rotting wood in China just waiting to be discovered.
Rediscovery of Pogostemon dielsianus (Lamiaceae, Lamioideae), a rare endemic species from southwestern China, after one century
Authors: Hu Guo-Xiong , Su Ting , An Ming-Tai , Wang Xiao-Yu
Published: January 2021

Pogostemon dielsianus (Lamiaceae) was described in 1913 based on a single gathering from northwestern Yunnan of China collected in 1905, and thereafter no further collections were observed until 2019. We rediscovered the rare endemic species in Lushui County, Yunnan. Molecular phylogenetic analyses based on four cpDNA markers (rbcL, rps16, psbA-trnH, and trnL-trnF) and the nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region confirmed its infrageneric placement within subg. Pogostemon. Based on observations of the rediscovered population of P. dielsianus, we updated its morphological description, provided an illustration, and discussed its distribution. Under IUCN criteria, the species was categorized as “Critically Endangered (CR)”.
Rock island melody: A revision of the Afroedura bogerti Loveridge, 1944 group, with descriptions of four new endemic species from Angola

Published: January 2021

Four new species of flat geckos in the Afroedura bogerti Loveridge, 1944 group are described from south-western and west-central Angola. The description of these new species significantly restricts the distribution range of typical A. bogerti, a morphologically very similar species, from which they differ genetically by 5.9–12% divergence for the mitochondrial 16S ribosomal RNA gene. Morphologically and genetically, Angolan Afroedura are divided into two main groups: a mostly south-western coastal group and a west-central inland/highland group. These two groups are further divisible into three and two subgroups respectively, all geographically isolated, differing by a combination of the following features: colouration, average adult size, number of mid-body scale rows, number of scale rows on dorsal and ventral surface of each tail verticil and if nostril scales are in contact or not. All five Angolan species are morphologically distinguishable and in agreement with the molecular results. An updated dichotomous key to the Afroedura transvaalica group is provided. The new discovery adds to a growing number of endemic Pro-Namib reptiles described from Angola in recent years.
Does Bank Capital Matter for Corporate Borrowers? Evidence from France
Authors: Grandi Pietro , Darriet Elisa , Guille Marianne , Belin Jean
Published: January 2021

À l’aide d’une grande base de données regroupant 83 900 entreprises françaises appariées à 159 banques européennes sur la période 2014-2016, nous montrons que le capital des banques affecte la nature de leurs relations de crédit et l’accès au crédit des entreprises durant une phase d’expansion économique. Les entreprises informationnellement opaques sont plus susceptibles d’emprunter auprès de banques ayant des niveaux de capitalisation relativement élevés : en moyenne, les PME empruntent auprès de banques dont le ratio de capital est plus élevé, de 1,3 point de pourcentage, que celui des banques qui prêtent aux grandes entreprises. Cet appariement endogène a également des effets positifs sur les conditions d’octroi de crédit : en moyenne, une augmentation d’un écart type du ratio de capital de la banque est associée à une diminution d’un demi-point de pourcentage des coûts d’emprunt pour l’entreprise. Les entreprises liées aux banques à forte capitalisation obtiennent également davantage de prêts à court et long terme et sont moins tributaires du crédit commercial des fournisseurs. Ces résultats suggèrent que les banques à forte capitalisation et les entreprises a priori les plus susceptibles d’être contraintes financièrement sont naturellement prédisposées à s’apparier et que ces banques sont en mesure de répercuter leurs plus faibles coûts de financement sur leurs clients sous la forme d’une plus grande disponibilité de crédits à moindre coût.
Common Sense and Comparative Linguistics
Authors: Thorpe Lucas
Published: January 2021

Je traite du rôle de la traductibilité dans la justification philosophique. Je présente et défends d’abord la conception que Thomas Reid se fait du rôle que peuvent jouer les faits relatifs à la linguistique comparative dans la justification philosophique. Il estime que le sens commun offre une forme de justification fiable, quoique révocable. Pourtant, nous ne pouvons pas savoir, de manière introspective, lesquels de nos jugements relèvent du sens commun. Les jugements de sens commun étant universels, il soutient donc que la preuve la plus forte qu’un jugement relève du sens commun est qu’on le retrouve formulé dans toutes les langues : le fait qu’une distinction se retrouve dans toutes les langues prouve qu’elle relève du sens commun et n’est pas un préjugé local commun. Les travaux empiriques en linguistique comparative peuvent ainsi jouer un rôle justificatif révocable dans les arguments philosophiques. Je distingue ensuite la position de Reid de celle, plus radicale, de l’approche du Métalangage Sémantique Naturel qui, comme le fait Anna Wierzbicka, soutient que seuls les jugements traductibles dans toutes les langues naturelles sont justifiables. Cette position découle d’une conception peu plausible, qui est pourtant très répandue chez les linguistes et les chercheurs en sciences cognitives, qui ne fait pas place à des concepts nouveaux.
