The Parts of Speech from the Perspective of the Correlation between Lexicon and Grammar
Authors: Barbuta Ion
Published: November 2023

The purpose of the article is to present an analysis of parts of speech from the point of view of the interference between semantic features and their morphosyntactic behavior. The elucidation of the established relationships between the lexical meaning of words, on the one hand, and their grammatical categories and the syntactic functions with which they are used, on the other, requires the analysis of these entities from a functional perspective. Since the relationships between the mentioned features are revealed when the lexical units function in the structure of the statement, we could say that the research addresses the problem of the correlation between the three components of the statement, namely the lexical, morphological and syntactic components. Revealing the relationships between these components would allow overcoming the artificial separation between the levels of semantic and syntactic description, but also a better understanding of how the utterance is constituted and functions.
"Dialectal Texts. Supplement to the Moldavian Linguistic Atlas (ALM)": Reissue Problems
Authors: Popovschi Liliana
Published: November 2023

The preparation of a new edition of the work Dialectal Texts. Supplement to the Moldavian Linguistic Atlas (ALM) required the solution of o series of problems, taking into account both the new realities due to the changes that have occurred in the last decades in the Republic of Moldova on a social-political and cultural level, the return to the Latin script and the recognition of the unity of the language spoken on both banks of the Prut river, as well as the principles of editing Romanian dialectal texts, so that the volumes of dialectal texts published in Chisinau could be integrated into the series of similar works published in Romania, forming a whole with them. The paper highlights the solutions identified to reduce the differences compared to the volumes edited by Romanian dialectologists in terms of the way the texts are presented and to transpose as accurately as possible the texts from the phonetic transcription system of the Moldavian Linguistic Atlas, based on the Cyrillic script, into that of the Romanian Linguistic Atlas, which represents the optimal system to transcribe spoken Romanian language.
The Persistence of the Emotional Lexicon in Political Discourse
Authors: Lopatiuc Alina
Published: November 2023

Several researchers argue that political discourse or, especially, political communication, is strategic interaction, because several actors participate in this communication, such as: a politician and the public, or a politician – a politician. Political discourse is one of the most emotionally consistent. The emotional universe in political discourse is sometimes even exaggerated and/or false. It is represented by means such as: affective verbs, conditional-optative verbs, inverted topic, adjectives at the superlative degree. The purpose of political discourse is to manipulate the opinion of the public so that the speaker emerges a winner, to present his own opinion in a reasoned manner. The speaker’s desire is to gain the public’s trust, to accumulate sympathizers, to spread political ideologies in masse, most often political speech arouses controversial opinions among the public, therefore it is considered a speech with a strong degree of emotionality.
Linguistic and Extra-Linguistic Factors of Somatic Idioms in English
Authors: Pascari Olga
Published: November 2023

As an essential part of the general vocabulary, idioms reflect the environment, life, history, and culture of the native speakers, and are closely associated with their innermost spirits and feelings. The question emerges that these idioms could have had both linguistic and extra-linguistic factors that could have influenced their appearance. In this article we aim at examining both linguistic and extra-linguistic features and ways of somatic idioms emergence in the English language. To be explicit we will compare English somatic idioms having different human part body key words to various body parts with somatic expressions of the same nature in the Romanian language.
Japanese engraving from the 18th-19th centuries in the collection of the National Art Museum of Moldova
Authors: Stavila Tudor
Published: November 2023

The National Art Museum of Moldova keeps in its funds a collection of about 400 Japanese stamps, made in the 18th-19th centuries, this being one of the most numerous collections in the neighboring regions. These prints were acquired by the museum in the years 1973-1987 from private collectors and from some antique shops and private owners in Moscow. Two periods marked the evolution of Japanese engraving - the Ukiyo-e and Meiji eras, which identified the difference between medieval and modern Japan. Made in the color woodcut technique of the ukiyo-e (World in Motion) era, this technique saw its peak development in the Edo period (1614-1868), decisively influencing the development of painting and graphics. Famous representatives of this era were Kitagawa Utamaro, Utagawa Hiroshige, Katsushika Hokusai and Utagawa Kunisada. During the Meiji period or the Period of the Enlightened Kingdom (1868-1912), Japanese woodcuts reflect the social and historical modifications that took place in Japan, by changing the subjects and the motifs of the prints with scenes of gatherings, battles or processions, making the appearance of diptychs, triptychs and even polyptychs , which are dispersed in the museum collection, The most illustrious artist was Toyohara Chikanobu (1838-1912). In the West, Japanese engravings had a major influence on the subsequent developmental trend of European painting, being found in the works of Claude Monet or Vincent van Gogh, who were conquered by the fineness of shadow-light gradation. The art of the impressionists and post-impressionists had been transformed and it proved that simple themes from the daily life of the changing world could be presented in an attractive way.
„Stephen the Great and Saint” Public Garden in Chișinău
Authors: Nesterova Tamara
Published: November 2023

The expansion of Chisinau to the west, where there were uncultivated lands, was produced with rectangular neighborhoods, their parametric mode serving the square with a side of 130 fathoms, land provided for the construction complex of the Metropolis of Bessarabia, by the Galata Monastery in Iaşi, the then owner of the locality. The first public garden in Chisinau, designed in the style of French classicism, was laid out on the square neibouring the Metropolis. The idea boils down to a ground floor divided by alleys into sectors according to the “divine grid” - a graphic technique used in the artisanal and professional environment of builders, easy to memorize and use, but accessible only to connoisseurs. The style of the garden did not involve the planting of trees and the construction of buildings, but due to climatic conditions and the lifestyle of the population, the tradition of the classic French garden was violated. Tall trees were planted in the garden, and the area was built up with recreational and entertainment buildings, under which the original rigid geometric structure of the park disappeared. The fence of the park made of cast iron sections was preserved along Mitropolit G. Bănulescu-Bodoni Street and 31 August 1989 Street, being completely lost on the side facing Ştefan cel Mare Boulevard and partially on Maria Cebotari Street. Interventions in the architecture of the park occurred gradually and in separate pieces led to the loss of the original structure of the park alleys, which were not appreciated as a significant part of the integrity of the park architecture.
Iconography of Ukrainian religious portraits in the drawings of the Lavra icon-painting workshop of the 18th century
Authors: Veremeienko Taras
Published: November 2023

Based on archival documents and drawings of the icon-painting workshop of the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra in the 18th century, the article analyzes mainly the inscriptions made by the authors and also the Ukrainian element in the Ukrainian baroque. The author presents the level of research on this topic. It is established that the Lavra icon-painting workshop had a high level of teaching the icon-painting science. In 1763, the Lavra workshop was transformed into a “school”. The administrators of the school not only monitored the general conditions, but also taught icon-painting. The students were divided into 2 groups: one group consisted of apprentices, the other of pupils. The students in the Lavra studied according to Western books. On the example of several drawings, the author shows the uniqueness of religious subjects, one of the features of which was to paint the image of saints in a typical Ukrainian manner.

The State Circus in Chisinau - the first socialist modernist architectural object included in the Register of state protected monuments of the Republic of Moldova
Authors: Trifan Aurelia
Published: November 2023

Modernism represents one of the most global styles in the history of world culture, dominating almost the entire 20th century. In this context, the Republic of Moldova is no exception having a significant modernist heritage. Numerous projects, materialized in imposing public buildings, are important landmarks in the perception of the identity of our country’s capital during the soviet period. Their research leads to the revelation of the spirit of modernism and of the whole impression of the architectural objects of that period, and last but not least, to the awareness of their real value. Thus, the State Circus attracts the public attention through its artistic qualities: the proportions, the rigorous rhythm of the pillars on the facade, the plastic decorations, as well as through the particularity of representing the historical era in which it was built. The authors of the project, architects S. Şoihet and A. Kiricenko, introduce an expressive volumetric composition into the urban structure, whereas the plastic artists V. Rotari, P. Obuh, L. Yantsen and E. Saakov are preoccupied with emphasizing the playful character of the edifice. Legally unprotected until recently, the architecture of the edifice was in danger of being seriously altered by inappropriate and irreversible interventions. The first step in saving the socialist modernist architectural object is made by the B.A.C.U. Association, which, arguing about the importance of the edifice in the urban context succeeds in including it in the Register of State-protected monuments.
The plastic expression of everyday life in the satirical graphics of the artist Glebus Sainciuc
Authors: Adascalita Lucia
Published: November 2023

Glebus Sainciuc is known in the artistic and cultural space of the Republic of Moldova, thanks to his pictorial works, papier-mâché masks and remarkable drawing sheets. Initially, the protagonist debuts in the art of easel painting, so as over decades to also enrich his area of interest through a vast activity in the art of masks, the art of social caricature and friendly cartoons. Caricature, as a genre of plastic creation, was practiced by artist Glebus Sainciuc mainly in the late 50s - early 60s of the 20th century. His debut in satirical graphics coincides with the period of time in which he becomes a member of the editorial board of the satire and humor magazine “Chiparus” in 1958. The artist’s activity involves social caricatures that were part of various thematic branches such as culture, social life, national economy, etc. The creator’s efforts were directed towards the elaboration of expressive images with an accentuated metaphorical substrate that originally reflects everyday life. Made in watercolor and ink, the caricatures developed by Glebus Sainciuc highlight the plastic expressions of color and line, while the subject of the image favors the satirical elucidation of some social and cultural realities.
Contemporary Annex in the Context of Design and Conservation Principles
Authors: Sivil Leyla Elif , Dabanli Omer
Published: November 2023

Social identity finds concrete expressions with the monuments, buildings, urban textures that constitute the cultural heritage in historical continuity. Preserving the identity of cities by ensuring historical and cultural continuity is possible by protecting the architectural heritage. While the historical buildings and settlements that in usage can easily be kept alive because of the existing maintenance, it is necessary to install new functions in order to protect the unused cultural heritage buildings and to make contemporary annexes for the emerging new usage and space needs. In this study, contemporary additions to historical textures and buildings are examined with examples in the context of design decisions, approaches and conservation principles. In this context, firstly the context of the annex was emphasized and then the repetition-imitation, the contrast and the adaptation-interpretation as design approaches were discussed with examples. In addition, the annexes were evaluated according to the physical relationship they established with the existing structure. Reflecting the era with its material, construction technique and form, annexes are an important component of cultural continuity, as they represent genuine solutions for real needs. Considering that a qualified design cannot be achieved by focusing solely on protection, it must be accepted that the new should be valued at least as much as the old.
Artistic tapestry from the Republic of Moldova in the period 2021-2023
Authors: Spinu Constantin
Published: November 2023

The artistic tapestry from the first years of the third decade of the 21st century, highlights a series of particularities and valuable aesthetic valences that confirm the ascending character of the creation in the mentioned field. The natural processes of supplementing the creative potential with representatives of the new generations of plastic artists had a beneficial influence on the diversification of the thematic repertoire, the syntactic register and the methods of technological realization of textile works. As a result of some creative morphological-syntactic and technological experiments undertaken by plastic artists, the works of textile art of the examined period were endowed with aesthetic expressions and messages that mirror the areas of artistic interest and themes towards which the creators directed their attention at the time. The aesthetic values promoted by the smooth weaving technology, widely practiced by plastic artists in the previous decades, were accompanied in a new way by values coming from the symbiosis of the mentioned technology with the technique of felting, embroidery and crocheting, as a result of which, the mixed techniques of creating the image found a prominent plastic promotion in the period in question. In turn, the semantic allure generated by the textile works in the given period was ensured, on the one hand, by the stylistic-compositional, textural and chromatic way of creating the image and, on the other hand, by the associative values and the metaphorical-symbolic substrate of the work .
Art and Language in the Vision of Eugeniu Coseriu’s Integral Linguistics
Authors: Savin-Zgardan Angela , Manoli Ion
Published: November 2023

In the present study, we address the conception of the philosopher and linguist Eugeniu Coseriu regarding culture and the common features between art and language, as constituents of culture, as well as the distinctive feature between them. With respect to culture, therefore - to art and language, the scholar claims that any human activity has its internal norm, a norm that implies a certain morality and a certain ethics of this activity. In art, the norm is not to make any concession to the empirical subject, which means that the universal subject in the person of the artist, who is also an ethical and moral person, should create in the way he/she considers, but not according to the taste of the public or of any party. These norms imply for culture and, respectively, for art and language, constancies such as: universality, non-dogmatics, tradition, national specificity, universal culture, culture in history, the relevance of culture, the duty of man of culture, of art, to the cultural situation of his community in history. In the matter of the differentiated characteristic between art and language, with the exclusion of poetic language, which is considered to be art in the conception of the great linguist, it is about the characteristic of the universal subject that excludes alterity in art, but which is specific to language. However, in the end, as far as art and poetic language are concerned, the existence of alterity is admitted on the condition that „the absolute self” addresses „the internalized self” of the creator in art.

Nutrition education centers: A community-based approach to management of malnutrition
Authors: Ikendi Samuel , Owusu Francis , Masinde Dorothy , Oberhauser Ann , Bain Carmen
Published: November 2023

First paragraph: Nutritional health is a core aspect of sustainable development. Globally, progress has been made in reducing child stunting and promoting exclusive breastfeeding; nevertheless, anemia, malnourish­ment of mothers and children, and general food insecurity are still persistent, requiring multi­faceted approaches to address those challenges (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations [FAO] et al., 2022). Uganda, the location of this case study, adopted both global and region­al strate­gies. For example, Uganda is a signatory to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targeting an end to all forms of malnutri­tion by 2030 (United Nations, 2015). Regionally, Uganda is also a signatory to the 2014 Malabo Declaration, which aimed at enhancing food production and reducing malnutrition by 2025 (African Union, 2014). The Uganda Nutri­tion Action Plan I (UNAP) of 2011-2016 made gains in reducing child stunting from 33% to 29% and wasting from 5% to 4%. However, mothers and children’s malnourishment persists (Office of the Prime Minister [OPM], 2020). The UNAP II 2020-2025 targets reducing malnutri­tion by lev­eraging collaborations to improve the functionality of nutrition intervention programs (OPM, 2020). . . .
The evolution of a partnership-based breeding program for organic corn
Authors: Goldstein Walter
Published: November 2023

This paper describes decades of research develop­ing a new type of corn (maize) cultivar that utilizes partnerships with seed-borne, bacterial endophytes to create environmentally friendly, nutritious corn that is better adapted to organic farming. Over time the project engaged and formed multiple, evolving networks of corn breeders and other scientists, organic farmers, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), private companies, the U.S. Department of Agriculture Agricultural Research Service (USDA-ARS), and state agricultural univer­sities in several states. It addressed and partly resolved the need for developing (a) yield-competi­tive hybrids with greater nutrient density (methio­nine and minerals), (b) better adapted inbreds for organic production conditions, and (c) reduced pollution from nitrogen fertilizers. The partnership approach taken also differs from usual top-down mechanistic breeding approaches in that the methods of breeding entailed holistic attention, learning, and respect for what turned out to be corn plants evolving in symbiogenesis with beneficial microbial partners. Initial studies indicate that the resulting corn from the program is competitive in yield but has better nutritional value. It obtains more of its nitrogen from microbial biomass and organic matter and nitrogen fixation than does conventional corn. Its performance partially depends on seed-borne plant/microbial partnerships. This corn continues to be developed at the Mandaamin Institute but is also being commercially introduced for testing by farmers.

One of the most important foods produced and consumed worldwide is natural honey. This substance features nice sensory qualities such as a light hue as well as a familiar scent and flavor. It also contains organic acids, sugars, minerals, enzymes, phenolic and volatile chemicals, methylglyoxal, amino acids, vitamins etcetera which have been linked to potential biological activities. All of these features make this viscous substance extremely desirable by consumers thus raising its market value. Natural honey is however prone to contamination upon improper storage so that its natural quality and authenticity can be jeopardized. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to provide updates to the literature available on the physicochemical, sensory features, content, economic value, medicinal benefits, contamination, originality, and adulteration of natural honey. With this context, we hope to provide data that can help guide future honey study.
A Concise Review: Nutritional Interventions for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)
Authors: Dhakad Prashant Kumar , Mishra Raghav , Mishra Isha
Published: November 2023

Wuhan, China reported a novel coronavirus-related sickness in late 2019, which quickly spread into a global epidemic. One crucial factor in combating the coronavirus infection appears to be the presence of a robust, long-lasting, and active immune system. The immune response is affected by several factors, including food. Nutritional insufficiency can cause immune deficits, making infections more likely to cause fatality. Thus, understanding numerous behaviors, particularly dietary habits, is essential to determining their capacity to reduce severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 risks and improve prognosis. In this paper, the authors summarize the complex interaction between nutritional status and severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 infections, as well as the consequences of poor nutrients with regard of the extent to which disease is affected. The literature was compiled by searching a number of reputable scientific databases including Scopus, Science Direct, Springer, Nature, PubMed, Web of Science resources. The accumulating evidence demonstrates that malnutrition impairs the immune system's ability to function, weakening the body's infection resistance. This review emphasizes the significance of nutritional status in the care of coronavirus disease patients as well as demonstrates that functional foods may contribute to better outcomes. Ageing, Obesity, Malnutrition, Undernutrition, Lack of exercise are having a devastating effect on people's health in general and during this coronavirus disease. The severity and prognosis of coronavirus illness seem to be significantly influenced by lifestyle choices, nutritional imbalances, and impaired immune response.

Neste estudo, investigou-se hérnias diafragmáticas em cães, com o intuito de entender melhor e aprimorar a abordagem dessa condição. Foram avaliados casos atendidos no Hospital Veterinário da Uniube ao longo de 17 anos. A hérnia diafragmática foi a variante mais comum de hérnia canina, afetando principalmente cães jovens e sem raça definida. Os sintomas predominantes estavam relacionados ao sistema respiratório, incluindo dispneia e abafamento de sons torácicos. Exames radiográficos e ultrassonográficos se mostraram eficazes para o diagnóstico, revelando a perda da cúpula diafragmática e a presença de órgãos abdominais no tórax, frequentemente envolvendo o fígado. Além disso, a hérnia diafragmática muitas vezes se associou a lesões graves, como fraturas e traumas cranioencefálicos e raquimedulares, complicando o tratamento e impactando o prognóstico. A taxa de mortalidade foi elevada, podendo ocorrer antes, durante ou após a cirurgia. Esse estudo fornece informações valiosas para compreender melhor a hérnia diafragmática canina e melhorar os cuidados clínicos nesses casos

Cadmium-contaminated jambu: carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks to human health
Authors: Santos Washington Aleksander Savaris dos , Oliveira Eder Silva de , Oliveira Gilmara Maureline Teles da Silva de , Silva Gleydson dos Santos
Published: November 2023

As industries develop and population grows exponentially, product consumption and production increase the generation of waste released into the environment. These residues released mainly from processing industries and the use of phosphate-based fertilizers are accompanied by trace elements. These trace elements can contaminate soils used to grow vegetables. From this perspective, jambu attracts attention due to the fact that it is a plant that can grow in an environment contaminated with cadmium. Its ability to accumulate Cd and the constant expansion of industrial activities to the vicinity of cultivation areas can expose the population to risk. Therefore, the following research used carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk equations to estimate risk values. Three edible parts of jambu (stem, leaf and flower) contaminated with cadmium were studied and the objective was to answer whether contaminated jambu really poses a risk to the population, which doses most pose a carcinogenic or non-carcinogenic risk and what are the possible risks inflicted on humans.
