Patrocinia - typologie a vývojové tendence
Authors: Komárek Karel
Published: December 2024

The study deals with patronages, i.e. with titles or dedications of Catholic sacred buildings (or objects). In the study the author comes with his own typology of patronages that reflects the naming structure of individual church titles. The typology is based on the following differences: single name and multiple name patronages (St. Jacob vs. St. Jacob and Philip); naming of the building after a person / an event / a symbol (St. Jacob vs. Resurrection of the Lord vs. Holy Cross); direct vs. indirect naming of a person (St. Jacob vs. The Holy Family); overall vs. partial naming of a person (Jesus Christ the King vs. God’s Body); necessary vs. unnecessary attribute (St. John the Baptist vs. St. Wenceslas); attributes differentiating more persons vs. more attributes of a single person (St. John the Baptist / of Nepomuk vs. Virgin Mary the Queen / the Christians’ Helper); toponymic attribute vs. other attribute (Virgin Mary of Carmel vs. Virgin Mary of the Snows). The author studies patronages used in the Czech language and referring to objects in the Czech Republic. He also describes certain developmental tendencies in the choice of patronages: the higher numbers of Christological patronages in the era of Mary Therese and Josef II, the reflection of newly introduced cults and events of Church-wide importance (liturgical reverence to the Heart of Jesus after 1856, the apparition of the Virgin Mary in Lourdes in 1858) and current accents in contemporary Catholicism (the patronages of The Holy Family, The Mercy of God, and The Virgin Mary, the Mother of Christians’ Unity).
Kapibara Kiler i krokodyl U-Boot - imiona zwierząt zamieszkujących ogrody zoologiczne
Authors: Żuchowicz Alicja
Published: December 2024

The article presents an onomastic analysis of zoonyms collected in three large Polish zoological gardens. The aim of the work is to examine the trends in the latest naming of wild animals living in zoos and to try to characterize it. The results of research on the names indicate that most names are transfers and derivation is a rare procedure. Among the collected zoonyms, there are visible tendencies towards: 1. naming subsequent animals of a specific species using a previously invented key, which makes it easier mainly in relation to animals that must be given a name for legal reasons; 2. giving animals, especially those that are known to be transported to another foreign zoo, universal names; 3. composing names based on word play or vocal instrumentation; 4. giving animals fashionable names and stereotypical names; 5. giving animals names reflecting their external features. It turns out that even in such a formalized sphere of zoonymic vocabulary, as the names of wild animals are, we can see considerable creativity when inventing onyms.

Authors: David Jaroslav , Davidová Glogarová Jana
Published: December 2024

The study deals with the second life of personal names in Jaroslav Hašek’s novel Osudy dobrého vojáka Švejka za světové války [The Good Soldier Švejk And His Fortunes in the World War]. Considering the distinct character types and their denotative potential, it focuses on the following topics: 1) appellativized forms of the characters’ proper names and their word-formation characteristics (e.g., the type švejk – švejkovat, švejkovina, švejkovský, etc.); 2) the use of characters’ proper names in contemporary opinion journalism as metaphorical and metonymic designations, as well as in quotations (e.g., “Tak nám prodali krematorium, paní Müllerová.” [“Well, so they sold the crematorium on us, Mrs. Müller.”]). The analysis is based on the opinion journalism corpus of the Czech National Corpus SYN, version 11.
Жіночий іменни́к в основах мікротопонімії кінця XVIII - початку XIX століття
Authors: Mosur Oksana
Published: December 2024

The article analyzes the historical microtoponymy of Sambirskyy Cyrkul derived from female anthroponymy between the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century. Official female Christian names, informal colloquial names, and sobriquets became the founding parts of microtoponyms (e.g., Anna > Annyna). The term “sobriquet” unites indirect informal female names based on the female’s father, husband, brother, etc. names. According to the structure, microtoponyms motivated by female anthroponyms are divided into simple onyms, compound onyms, and prepositional word forms (e.g. Nad Kasynym). Simple onyms are single-word names which are formed via suffixal, lexical-semantic, and morphological-syntactic ways.
Přejímání toponym obsažených v díle Pán prstenů z angličtiny do čínštiny
Authors: Frydrychová Michaela
Published: December 2024

The trilogy The Lord of the Rings by J. R. R. Tolkien is appropriately called the fundamental writing of fantasy literature. The story of the battle between good and evil, which continues to amaze readers around the world almost 70 years after it was first published, has been translated into dozens of languages, including Chinese. The work is typical for its detailed description of the landscape. The high frequency of local names raises the question of how translators work with them when translating into foreign languages. In the case of Chinese, the applied procedures are even more interesting, as it is a language with a typologically different writing system. The paper presents the results of a lexicological analysis of place names, which led to identifying not only all applied loanword categories but also which of them was the most productive one for borrowing toponyms. Based on the analysis of 512 toponyms, the following types of loanwords have been recognized: phonetic loanwords, hybrid loanwords, calques, semantic loanwords and induced new creations. The most productive loanword categories are phonetic loanwords, calques, and hybrid loanwords.
Клички тварин Північно-Західної України як наслідок семантичної деривації
Authors: Omelkovets Ruslana , Khrystianinova Raisa
Published: December 2024

The article is dedicated to the least studied group of onyms in Ukrainian linguistics – animal nicknames – and was conducted using the material of a dialect speech. The authors focused on names of domestic animals motivated by plant names in the north-western Ukrainian dialects. These names appear as a result of a semantic derivation which is based on a metaphorical transition of the plant name to the animal name according to certain associative connections between the donor (plant names) and the recipient (animal nicknames) zones. It is ascertained that owners usually assign a certain nickname to a pet taking into account a feature that characterizes the animal and at the same time it makes it possible to distinguish the animal from the others. There are several types of associations according to which the transmission from a plant name to an animal name occurs: 1) a similarity between the colour of the animal and the colour of the plant or its parts; 2) a similarity between specific spots on the animal and a certain plant or its parts; 3) a similarity between the structure of the animal’s coat and the structure of the plant or its parts; 4) a similarity between the animal’s body shape or its individual parts and the shape of the plant or its parts; 5) the animal’s body size, which is associated with the size of the plant or its parts; 6) a similarity in the impressions made by the animal on the human associated with similar impressions made by the plant; 7) associations with peculiarities of the plant’s effect on the human’s physical or mental state; 8) behavioural traits associated with specific plants; 9) temporal associations; 10) spatial associations. It is noted that the associative connections between the animal’s colour and the colour of plant’s flowers or fruits and the associative connections between the animal’s behavioural traits and qualities of certain plant are the most productive in the north- western Ukrainian folk zoonymy.
Přechylování příjmení v matrikách od konce 18. století do poloviny 20. století ve vztahu k dnešnímu stavu
Authors: Matúšová Jana
Published: December 2024

The surnames of Czech females are traditionally created from the masculine form by adding the suffix -ová (Novák – Nováková). This form was established by law in 1949 as the standard. Today’s law changes permit that females may choose the masculine form of their husband’s surname (Novák) or use the male surname of their husband along with their original feminine form as well (Dvořák Nováková). This development deserves comparison with the historical situation. In this article, we analyze the female surnames entered in the Catholic marriage registers in several towns and villages, especially in the second half of the 19th and the first half of the 20th century. There are several possibilities how the scribes wrote down the bride’s name. They identified her by the first name and the relation to her father or former husband (Anna, daughter of…), used the masculine form of the surname, or created feminine forms by using the suffixes -ova (identical with the possessive suffix) or -ová. Even though the recording of female surnames was influenced by the customs of the individual scribes, the rise of using forms with the suffix -ová as an independent feminine surname in the 20th century is evident. The masculine forms of the surnames of brides are relatively infrequent in historical documents, not specific to any particular time period, and dependent on the scribe customs (they were used especially when the bride was of foreign, typically German, origin). The use of two family names (e.g., Dvořák Nováková) was not documented in the marriage registers. Today’s law changes are in opposition to the historical development and do not respect the use of female surnames in daily Czech communication. Masculine forms only make sense for females who are often abroad, and/or have a husband of foreign origin, etc. The future will show whether Czech females will prefer traditional surnames with the suffix -ová or choose the masculine form of the surname for documents. It is probable that the form with -ová will be used in common Czech communication regardless of the form indicated in the documents.

The source material comprises of the names collected from on-line sources and the author’s own experience and observation. The analyzed zoonyms come from the common nouns (Шафа /Shafa/, Фенікс /Feniх/, Патрон /Patron/, Перемога /Peremoha/, Мир /Myr/, etc.) and from the onyms (Чорнобаївка /Chornobaivka/, Ямпіль /Yampil/, Бахмут /Bakhmut/, Тарас /Taras/, Леся /Lesya/, Байрактар /Bayraktar/, etc.). The use of such zoonyms is not limited to certain locations. They are widespread throughout Ukraine. Some of the analyzed zoonyms belong to the secondary ones (Шафа /Shafa/, Фенікс /Fenix/, Бахмут /Bakhmut/, Ямпіль /Yampil/, Буча /Bucha/): before their bearers were saved, they had other names. The most popular zoonyms in the studied material are Байрактар /Bayraktar/, Джавелін /Dzhavelin/ / Джавеліна /Dzhavelina/, Патрон /Patron/. The presence of identical zoonyms for animals of different species indicates the popularity of these onyms, the desire of animal owners to put their patriotic emotions into the name, in addition to the identification function. The analyzed zoonyms reveal the connection with the context of a certain time. They are closely related to the realities of war. These zoonyms are a kind of markers of wartime.

Thomas Hobbes' Contributions to Development Theory and Political Philosophy
Authors: Igidigba Oghenemarho Carolyn , Liman Abdullahi Nuhu
Published: December 2024

This study critically examined Thomas Hobbes' contributions to development theory and political philosophy. The study aimed to analyze Hobbes' key ideas, including the conception of human nature, the theory of the social contract and state formation, and the perspective on sovereignty and absolute power, and to assess their lasting impact on subsequent development theories and political thought. The analysis drew on a review of Hobbes' primary works, such as Leviathan and De Cive, as well as secondary sources that examined the influence of these ideas. The study employed a qualitative, interpretive approach, situating Hobbes' theories within the broader intellectual and historical context of the Enlightenment era. The findings demonstrated that Hobbes' mechanistic view of human nature, driven by self-preservation and competition, highlighted the necessity of a structured society and a strong governing authority to mitigate societal disorder. The social contract theory, which justified the transfer of individual rights to a sovereign power in exchange for security and order, profoundly shaped theories of state formation and the legitimacy of political authority. Moreover, Hobbes' advocacy for absolute, centralized sovereignty continued to inform debates on the role of the state in ensuring stability and progress. The study concludes that Hobbes' ideas remain highly relevant in analyzing and addressing contemporary development challenges, particularly in societies grappling with issues of governance, corruption, and the breakdown of social contracts, as exemplified by the case of Nigeria. The study recommends that countries facing such challenges should prioritize strengthening their governance structures and political institutions to maintain order, enforce the rule of law, and create conditions for societal well-being and security. Hobbes' work continues to serve as a foundation for ongoing discussions on the nature of the state and the mechanisms required to promote sustainable development.

Public Debt and Economic Growth in Tanzania: An Empirical Investigation
Authors: Maganya Mnaku Honest
Published: December 2024

This paper sought to investigate empirically the impact of public debt on economic growth in Tanzania over a period of 1990 to 2023. Toward this objective, a Vector Error Correction Model and Johansen cointegration analysis were employed to test for causal relationships between the variables of interest, including real GDP, external and domestic debt, and external debt services. Being consistent with the Keynesian theory, the domestic debt found to positively affect real output and lasts for one year. However, the empirical results reveal a negative and significant long-run relationship between real GDP and external debts, as well as real GDP and external debt services, indicating that external debts and it is services impair long-run economic growth. Findings support the crowding-out effect which results from external and rather than domestic debt. In line with the findings, this paper recommends to the government to pursue appropriate debt strategies and policies with the intention of improving economic growth. In addition, the study cautions the country against growing external debt to finance its increasing expenditure needs as this was found to have adverse effects on growth in the long-run. The implication is that government should be able to design policies to effectively utilize and manage the public debt by increasing productive activities and, hence, promote economic growth and development.

Published: December 2024

Background: Different strategies are present which allow identification of bacteria in different environments. The current gold standard is to culture the bacteria and identify them based on their morphological and metabolic characteristics. Objectives: The present study was designed to isolate bacterial strains having environmental role to degrade various pollutants from Akra soil samples, District Bannu, KPK, Pakistan. Microbial biodegradation is important phenomenon and has attracted attention of the researcher. Methods: Total 6 bacterial strains designated IOM-40, IOM-41, IOM-42, IOM-43, IOM-44 and IOM-45 were isolated. The isolated organisms were identified based on morphological, physiological and genetic characteristics. The isolated organisms were able to grow on T5, TSA, and nutrient agar media. Results: Optimum growth was recorded at 37–45°C, NaCl concentrations (0-0.5%) and at pH 7.0–7.2. Temperature 45°C and medium T5 were best for isolation of bacteria from arid environment of Akra soil. Strains IOM-41 and IOM-45 were rod-coccus shaped and Gram-staining-positive. Bacteria IOM-40 and IOM-43 were Gram-staining-positive and rod shaped. Organisms IOM-42 and IOM-44 were Gram-staining-negative and rod shaped. Conclusion: Organisms IOM-41, IOM-44 and IOM-45 were found possessing biodegradation properties. Isolation of bacteria from such arid environment could be used to mitigate environmental pollution.
. Diagnostic value of HMGB-1 and Acetylcholinesterase in Assessing the Prognosis of Patients with Acute Pancreatitis
Authors: Li Yan
Published: December 2024

Aim: Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a disorder of tissue digestion caused by abnormal activation of pancreatic enzymes, which may lead to multi-organ failure and ultimately death as the disease progresses. How to quickly and accurately evaluate the progression of AP has always been a hotspot and difficulty in clinical research.
Methods: Sixty-four AP patients admitted to our hospital from August 2022 to June 2023 and 60 concurrent healthy people were selected as the research subjects, with AP patients as the observation group and healthy people as the control group. Using kits from Wuhan Fine Biotechnology Co., Ltd., an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was carried out to measure HMGB-1 and AChE levels. In addition, an automatic biochemical analyzer was utilized to quantify the levels of nutritional proteins albumin (ALB), transferrin (TRF), and total protein (TP) in the observation group.
Results: Compared with the control group, the HMGB-1 in the observation group was higher while the AChE was lower (P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that when HMGB-1 was less than 7.25 mg/L, the sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing AP were 89.06% and 51.67%, respectively (P<0.05); when AChE was less than 6.18 U/L, the sensitivity for diagnosing AP was 43.75% and the specificity was 90.00% (P<0.05). Using the joint detection Log(P)=-1.736+(0.645×HMGB-1)+(-0.454×AChE), it was found that HMGB-1+AChE had a sensitivity of 48.44% and a specificity of 88.33% for the diagnosis of AP (P<0.05, cut-off>0.639,)
 
Conclusion: In this study, we found elevated HMGB-1 expression in AP and reduced acetylcholinesterase (AChE), suggesting that both of them may be involved in the occurrence and development of AP. Meanwhile, the two demonstrated excellent diagnostic efficacy in the onset and poor prognosis of AP, and were closely related to AP progression, confirming their potential as new clinical indicators for AP. Due to the self-digestion by pancreatic enzymes, the nutritional metabolism of AP patients is disrupted, so protein loss is also a focus of attention. In this study, we also found a negative correlation of nutritional protein levels with HMGB-1 in AP patients and a positive correlation between them with AChE, further supporting the relationship between the two and AP progression. The findings can lay a reliable foundation for future research on the diagnosis and treatment of AP based on HMGB-1 and AChE.
Ecological discourse analysis of COVID-19 news reports in CNN Philippines and Rappler
Authors: Paraman Marhada H.
Published: December 2024

Ecological Discourse Analysis (EDA) examines the relationship between language and the environment, focusing on how discourse shapes and reflects ecological and social behaviors. By analyzing linguistic patterns, EDA seeks to uncover how language conveys ideologies, values, and attitudes towards ecological issues, such as sustainability, environmental justice, and human-nature relationships. This paper was positioned to analyze the appraisal characteristics of COVID-19 news reports in CNN and Rappler from January 2020 to November 2021. A total of 28 news articles, evenly sourced from the two outlets, were analyzed. AntConc 4.0.2 identified the use of appraisal resources, including attitude, engagement, and graduation. The findings revealed that CNN Philippines adopted a more balanced tone, characterized by 32.67 percent attitude, 38.07 percent engagement, and 29.26 percent graduation resources. In contrast, Rappler demonstrated a more critical stance, with 36.46 percent attitude, 36.94 percent engagement, and 26.6 percent graduation resources. The engagement system showed that both outlets favored heteroglossic expressions, incorporating multiple perspectives to enrich their reporting. The graduation system, focusing on force, highlighted how both news organizations used intensity in their language to emphasize the significance of COVID-19-related issues. These linguistic patterns reveal distinct ideological orientations and strategies for engaging audiences, highlighting the media’s role in shaping public understanding and response during a global health crisis. The study underscores the significant impact of linguistic choices in news reporting, offering insights into how media narratives influence public discourse in times of uncertainty.
