“The word is man, man is spiritual community, spiritual community is Sophia”. Gnostic myth and the construction of the author in L. P. Karsavin’s Sophia the earthly and the heavenly
Authors: Vaganova Nataly
Published: April 2024

«Sophia the earthly and the heavenly» was written by L.P. Karsavin during his transition from medievism to religious philosophy. The text was first published in the third issue of the almanac Sagittarius (1922). It represents a literary hoax: an «unknown» Gnostic treatise with parodic commentary «from the publisher». The basis of the work is an artistic translation of the chapters of the treatise Pistis Sophia with poetic inserts by Karsavin. The study offers an analysis of the structure of the author's self in the context of the Gnostic myth. The thematic connections of the work with the texts of other authors of the almanac, as well as with other «gnostic» texts by Karsavin are traced. The sources of mystification and principles of parody are revealed. The connections of the work with Alexei Remizov's stylisations («Russia in Letters»), S.P. Bobrov's hoax (a continuation of A.S. Pushkin's poem «Judith»), etc. are established. The connection of Karsavin's poetics with the abstruse language of the Futurists (Velimir Khlebnikov), the poetry of Symbolism (Vladimir Soloviev), and Acmeism («gnostic» poetry of Mikhail Kuzmin) is revealed. The Gnostic line in the works of other authors (Belenson, Kuzmin, Hollerbach, Rozanov) of the almanac helps to decipher the idea of «Sophia...» as the wandering of the soul in the aspect of eros mysticism. The latter theme is the leading one in «Noctes Petropolitanae» (1922), where in the image of Adam Kadmon Karsavin proposes the idea of the all-unified man as a symphony. The Sophia myth is continued in On Beginnings (1925). As a result, the structure of the text of «Sophia...» reveals an ensemble of authors, immanent and external to Karsavin's authorial self. All of them are connected in the multitudinous subject-author. Another meta-theme of the almanac is the Word: its creative power (Fyodor Sologub) and its mute impotence (Artur Lurie). In «Sophia...», in the idea of the Word as the Fullness of being and non-being, a synthesis is realised. For the authorial utterance Karsavin turns to the not-word, constructing from it his own-other multi-subjective self. The text of «Sophia...» is thus a laboratory of the author's multi-subject self, where the model of the symphonic personality is experimentally assembled and tested as the leading concept of Karsavin's subsequent doctrine of personality, in his ontology («On the Beginnings») and philosophy of history.
Mircea Eliade’s cosmic Christianity: approaches to an interpretation
Authors: Tarasov Sergey
Published: April 2024

The article deals with the construct of cosmic Christianity in Mircea Eliade's project of the history of religion. Links are established with other concepts of the author, such as creative hermeneutics, homo religiosus, the horror of history, etc. Parallels are also drawn with German Idealism, Protestantism, traditionalism, Jungian psychoanalysis, and conservative-revolutionary thought. The criticism of A. Lenel-Lavastin and D. Dubuisson is drawn upon, arguing that the construct of cosmic Christianity can work within a national-conservative synthesis, so that the nation becomes the guarantor of the purity of church tradition. Eliade's method by which he contrasts cosmic Christianity with Judeo-Christian messianism is discussed. As part of the concept of cosmic Christianity the implicit use of the author's original concept of tradition as a virtual chain of initiations is found. Eliade's assembly is viewed through the lens of P. Berger's social constructivism. It is argued that Berger bases his theory of secularization on Eliade's working definition of religion and concept of cosmization. The metaphysical opposition of Eliade's vital immanentism to Berger's transcendentalism is stated. Immanentism is correlated with the traditional and archetypal folk re-evaluation within cosmic Christianity, transcendentalism with the radical and historical interpretation of the Gospel in Lutheran theology. Eliade's history of religion is characterized as a modernist theory, with inherent qualities of M. such as: a desire for a totalizing worldview, an interest in building a synthetic ideology on the border of archaic myth and scientific knowledge, a sense of the removal of the divine and an acceleration of the end of history. A connection is established between Eliade's theory of religion and the metaphysical framework of the "natural" in Modern science and culture. The reality of the sacred is characterized as a living self-organizing system, and its manifestation as a hierophany of the natural. The conclusion is made that the essentialism and naturalism of such metaphysics do not allow the history of religion to transcend the categories of Modern science and culture, which, according to the author of the article, was the goal of Eliade's project.

How Many Handwritings Does Dostoevsky Have: Typology Tasks
Authors: Zakharov Vladimir
Published: April 2024

Dostoevsky's handwriting has only recently become the subject of special research. This was facilitated by a number of tasks of studying the manuscript corpus of Dostoevsky's texts. Modern scholars often do not entirely know the grammar and graphics of the writer. A significant volume of Dostoevsky's manuscripts is written in illegible cursive. It is not always possible for researchers to confidently determine who created the handwritten text — the author or the scribe. In many cases, there is no relatively accurate printed reproduction of manuscripts. Some of the complex texts were read mistakenly. The use of digital technologies allows us to solve some of the research tasks. One of the auxiliary tasks is to study the typology of Dostoevsky's handwriting. By the 19th century, such common types of handwriting as cursive, tachygraphic writing and calligraphy had historically developed in Russia. There are different definitions of these concepts, but their meaning is most precisely explained by the semantics of words. The cursive reproduces the outlines of letters and words according to samples. Everyone learned to write properly according to cursive workbooks, but everyone had their own handwriting. In life, a person usually managed with one handwriting, as a rule, cursive. Tachygraphic writing is functional. Its task is to simplify the spelling of letters and speed up the writing process. Regular tachygraphic writing is legible, but rapid tachygraphic writing is not always legible. Calligraphy is often equated with cursive, but it was penmanship that was taught in cursive copybooks — beautiful handwriting according to the prescribed samples is dead. Dostoevsky wrote not by craft, but by inspiration, out of love for art. Patterns are excluded in Dostoevsky's calligraphy — it’s all about personal skill. It is enough to recall the multiplication of calligraphies by Myshkin in the novel "The Idiot". Dostoevsky adds four more original calligraphies to the five famous ones through Myshkin’s words. There is no such analysis in scientific literature. Dostoevsky aspired to a variety of handwritings. In his understanding, the letter expressed the spirit, the national character of a person and people, the meaning of speech and words. It

Published: April 2024

After a long time of industrial economy, modernist urban planning and neoliberal urban policy, approaches to urban development planning in Ukraine are gradually changing. Special attention today is paid to the innovative and promising integrated approach to cities planning and development, which is based on stakeholders’ participation in the planning process and acquires an appropriate legislative basis and adaptation for the country. The purpose of the article is drawing the methodological background of integrated urban development planning as a comprehensive interdisciplinary approach that concerns the interaction of all sectors of human life in the urban space. The authors reveal the emergence prerequisites, significance, application areas, as well as the substantive levels of the introduction of integrated planning and management tools in Ukrainian cities with an emphasis on the need to analyze cross-sectoral impacts. The content analysis of Ukrainian legislation and scientific sources made it possible to propose a vertically integrated system of planning formative and regulatory documentation and to determine the sequence of planning stages of integrated development of communities in Ukraine. It is noted that the highest humanitarian goal of the integrated planning tool implementation is to ensure sustainable development and rational use of the urban territory and local resources, which meets the community interests and determines its resilience in the future. The disclosure of the methodological principles of integrated urban development planning for the sustainable cities’ formation is innovative among Ukrainian geographical studies. The relevance of the publication is determined by the current process of reforming the urban planning system in Ukraine, which predicts the integrated urban development concepts development.

Authors: Reyes Serrano Héctor , Rojas Arancibia Paola , Araya Barraza Francisca , Barraza Gallardo Sergio
Published: April 2024

Las Organizaciones de Usuarios de Aguas (OUA) son entidades privadas y autónomas sin fines de lucro, encargados de captar, conducir y distribuir las aguas de sus asociados. Entre estas se tiene Juntas de Vigilancia, Asociaciones de Canalistas y Comunidades de Aguas. En el marco de los procesos de gestión hídrica que realizan estas organizaciones, se observan algunas debilidades que inciden en los resultados de dicha gestión. Como único proveedor del servicio de administración y distribución de las aguas de sus asociados, no cuentan con contraparte que acredite cumplimiento de estándares de gestión y transparencia. La certificación de prácticas de gestión hídrica es una herramienta que puede contribuir en el abordaje de la problemática descrita. Por ello, se desarrolló un sistema de certificación de buenas prácticas de gestión hídrica para OUA y se realizó la certificación en dos de ellas. Lo primero fue identificar prácticas que contribuyeran a la seguridad hídrica desde el punto de vista de la cantidad, calidad y sustentabilidad, a partir del levantamiento de datos en OUA y revisión de literatura. Luego, se diseñó el sistema de certificación sobre la base de información de la literatura y talleres de trabajo. Finalmente, se aplicó la certificación a dos OUA de la cuenca del Rio Elqui. Se identificaron 17 buenas prácticas de gestión hídrica agrupadas en cinco dimensiones del accionar de las OUA, que permitieron estructurar un sistema de certificación que cuenta con normativa e instrumentos de apoyo. Las dos OUA que se sometieron a la certificación lograron acreditar su desempeño, en niveles distintos entre ellas, pero acorde al estándar.
Ethical Principles in Dental Research of Behavioral and Social Factors
Authors: Ramírez Karol
Published: April 2024

Given the importance of conducting research ethically when studying humans, this article involves considerations on basic ethical principles in dental research of behavioral and social factors. Research in these fields contribute to understand social interactions, attitudes, individual and group dynamics. As well, research in these areas not only delve into scientific knowledge of human nature, but also support evidence-based decision-making of health policies and interventions. The four main ethical principles apply to studies on behavioral and social factors. First, respect for persons dictates researchers must protect participants’ autonomy, which is the basis for informed consent. Moreover, the principle of beneficence refers to act in such a way that participants benefit from taking part of a research study. Also, beneficence promotes participants’ safety and well-being. Non-maleficence requires that researchers avoid or minimize harm to others. Justice implies fair treatment. Additional aspects of justice involve respecting participants’ privacy and confidentiality. Ethical principles require interpretation. Therefore, some examples are provided, aiming that researchers overview and apply these norms. Ethical judgement and appropriate decision making are of great importance at any stage of research with human beings.
Personality organisation, traumatic childhood experiences, and alcohol use in a non-clinical group
Authors: Wojtynkiewicz Ewa
Published: April 2024

Introduction and objective: Psychodynamic concepts assume that early experiences in relationships with close family members influence mental health. Kernberg’s model of personality organisation also assumes that the structure of personality depends on object relations, and the adaptability of individual dimensions of personality organisation will depend on, among others, quality of care in early childhood. In recent years, the self-medication hypothesis has become increasingly popular, arguing that alcohol use is secondary to personality difficulties. The research presented in the article aimed to assess the relationships between dimensions of personality organisation, traumatic childhood experiences, and alcohol use. Materials and methods: The sample consisted of 148 Polish adults, including 85 women and 63 men. The mean age was M = 32.61 (standard deviation, SD = 9.29). The Inventory of Personality Organization, the Childhood Experience Questionnaire (CEQ-58), and the Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT) were used. Results: The results indicate positive low to moderate correlations between all personality dimensions and the severity of various adverse experiences. Alcohol use also increases with greater disturbances across all dimensions of personality organisation. Moreover, as traumatic experiences such as physical abuse, physical and emotional neglect, and environmental instability increase, the tendency to use alcohol also increases. Three clusters of individuals with different configurations of the investigated variables were also identified. Conclusions: The research has confirmed the relationships between personality organisation, traumatic childhood experiences, and alcohol use reported in the literature, thus prompting reflection on the use of alcohol as a form of self-medication.
The impact of ecotherapeutic mental health interventions (forest therapy, therapeutic ornithology, and nature-based mindfulness) on stress reduction and mental wellbeing: a qualitative analysis
Authors: Simonienko Katarzyna , Murawiec Sławomir , Tryjanowski Piotr
Published: April 2024

Introduction and objective: Nature and mental health are in an important relationship, especially in the context of stress reduction. In the current times, when more than half of the human population lives in cities, where people are exposed to an excess of stimuli such as noise, light pollution, time pressure, and the fast pace of life, the relaxing potential of nature immersion seems to be an essential protective factor. Forest therapy and nature-based mindfulness are well-researched ecotherapeutic methods, and therapeutic ornithology is also recognised as a very popular and beneficial activity supporting mental wellbeing. However, only a limited number of studies have been carried out to explore the impact of combining these three different ecotherapeutic techniques. Materials and methods: During an ecotherapeutic programme for adults held in the Biebrza River Valley, Poland, in the spring of 2022, the above-mentioned nature-based interventions supporting mental wellbeing were performed. Twelve Polish volunteers participated in a three-day ecotherapeutic programme led by two psychiatrists and ecotherapists. Qualitative interviews were conducted and analysed using the interpretative phenomenological method. Results: The results indicated that forest therapy, nature-based mindfulness, and therapeutic ornithology worked differently, but they also shared many common features and could be an effective combination in coping with different types of stress and anxiety symptoms. They were also found to improve the general wellbeing at different levels and dimensions. Conclusions: The studied combination of ecotherapeutic techniques is worth considering both in personal self-care practice and in designing ecotherapeutic programmes for stress reduction an wellbeing improvement.
A rare case of adventitious placentation (diffuse semi-placenta) in a Jersey cow
Authors: Parrillo Salvatore , De Amicis Ippolito , Bucci Roberta , Hattab Jasmine , Robbe Domenico , Carluccio Augusto
Published: April 2024

Placental abnormalities more frequently occur during pregnancy of somatic cell clones and may lead to pregnancy loss or dystocia. Adventitious placentation, or diffuse semi-placenta, is determined by the development of areas of accessory placentation between the cotyledons due to the abnormal growth of placentomes.

After a full-term pregnancy, a 3-year-old Jersey heifer was referred for dystocia which resulted in the delivery of a dead calf. The cause of dystocia was found to be foetal malposition, while the placenta was physiologically expelled after dystocia resolution.

Grossly, cotyledons appeared reduced in size and number in one placental horn, while the surface of the other horn was covered with microplacentomes. Numerous villous structures without trophoblastic coating were highlighted after histopathology. The dominant sign was an inflammatory reaction. The findings were consistent with inter-cotyledonal placentitis, which led to adventitial placentation.

Diffuse semi-placenta compensates for the inadequate development of placentomes and may occur as a congenital or acquired defect. The outcome depends on its severity: in the worst scenario, pregnancy may not proceed beyond midterm and may be complicated by hydrallantois. In the case under examination, the dimensions of the cotyledons (from 2 to 10 cm) allowed for the natural course of pregnancy.
Review of the National Police Chief's Policy Regarding Decree Number Kep/613/III/2021 Maintaining Public Security and Order in Certain Areas
Authors: Ersanda Rifki , Suwaryono Ixora Lundia
Published: April 2024

After the policy of the Chief of Police issued his Decree Number: 613/III/2021 dated March 23, 2021 so that the authority of the Sector Police is reduced to only carrying out investigative activities including receiving reports, requesting information, visiting crime scene, collecting evidence but also to delegate the case to the Resort Police if the crime is continued into the investigations stage, if the crime is continued to the investigation stage it must be delegated to a higher unit, namely the Resort Police. This research is based on the theory of legal certainty and hierarchy. The legal status of the Decree of the Chief of Police Number Kep/613/11/2021 concerning Appointment of Sector Police Only to Maintain Public Security and Order in Certain Areas (Not Conducting Investigations) is that the Decree of the Chief of Police is categorized as a beleidsregel (policy regulation). The Polsek focuses on aspects of Kamtibmas, being in the midst of society, prioritizing the main tasks of protecting, nurturing and serving the community by carrying out pre-emptive and preventive activities rather than repressive and the effectiveness of investigations is handed over to the upper unit level, namely the Polres. Then the decision of the Head of the National Police to remove the investigative authority at the Polsek in the study of criminal law policies is quite rational within the framework of non-penal efforts to solely enforce the law for the realization of security and public order. The impact of the issuance of the decision to stop investigations and investigations at the Polsek, the stipulation of the Decree of the head of the National Police of the Republic of Indonesia Number: Kep/613/III/2021 made it difficult for the community. People who live far from the Polres use paid transportation and are not ready for transportation. The police are unable to handle cases. The community feels that the authority of the police is burdened in enforcing the law because it is more expensive. Abolishing investigative powers is also beneficial for the police, because basically law enforcers must be closely monitored, while so far supervision at the police level has been very weak. Eliminating the right to investigate can minimize the potential for abuse of authority. Another advantage, the abolition of investigative authority can also make the Police closer and become friends of the community. Because on the one hand the police can focus more on working with the community to maintain order, and on the other hand eliminate negative perceptions such as repression that generally arise when they handle cases.

Strategies for Mastering Suffering in Culture
Authors:   Volgograd State University, Grudtseva Elena
Published: April 2024

The article is devoted to the study of suffering as a component of human subjectivity. The factors that determine the unavoidability of suffering in human life are highlighted. The dynamics of the meanings of the word "suffering" are shown from the original meanings associated with the concepts of "death" and "hard work" to modern meanings grouped around the experience of pain, death, and guilt. At the same time, the essential features of existential suffering are a lack of freedom and destructiveness. The features of the strategy of avoiding suffering as an experienced state are analyzed: at the early stages of historical development; in religious concepts; in Epicurean philosophy; in hedonistic theories. Using the example of the analysis of archaic initiation practices that determined the life cycles of an individual and society, the ambivalent role of the painful trials and sufferings that accompanied them is described: as an indicator of readiness to transition to a new status and as a factor of coercion in an undesirable social role. The tendencies of rethinking suffering in the period of Axial time are shown (the formation of a "suffering person"; voluntary acceptance of suffering; the appearance of a bundle of "suffering and redemption" in the Abrahamic religions). A feature of religious strategies of escape from suffering is the withdrawal of a state without suffering beyond the real world and the promise of existence without suffering after death. The consequences of the reinterpretation of suffering, characteristic of modern society, as an existential experience that adjusts a person to a passive life position and the living of pleasures are considered. The positive and negative aspects of suffering are highlighted, as well as the dual relationship of suffering with meaning: on the one hand, suffering itself assumes the existence of a meaning that must be discovered; on the other hand, the subject himself is called upon to fill the meaning of the suffering situation. The meaning here is what helps to survive the irremediable suffering. Giving a situation of suffering meaning changes the personal attitude of the sufferer, increasing his chances of overcoming the situation and, more importantly, ensuring his moral safety. Personal strategies for understanding suffering are described. The conclusion is made about the ambivalence of the phenomenon of suffering, its dialectical connection with pleasure, its dependence on the spiritual mood, as well as the influence of meaningful suffering on the processes of personal development.

Features of the Use of Capitalization Ratios to Assess the Economic Efficiency of Investments in Real Estate
Authors: Bedin Boris , Kovalevskaya Natalya
Published: April 2024

The article discusses some ways to assess the economic efficiency of investments in real estate. The initial premise of the study was the property of real estate, which consists in the variety of motives for its acquisition, which can lead to a change in the value of the same property, depending on the nature of its use. Currently, real estate is becoming a popular investment tool for many investors, including those who do not have deep economic knowledge. For this reason, such methods of assessing the economic efficiency of investments that require a minimum of initial data and require simplicity and accessibility of calculations become especially relevant.

One of the main tasks defined by the legislation in the field of reforestation is to increase the volume of cultivation of planting material with a closed root system (PMZKS) for use in its silvicultural production. This determines the increased research and production interest in both domestic and foreign experience in growing PMZKS. Technological features of container cultivation of plants in greenhouses are characterized by the presence of some problems that significantly reduce the quality of planting material and the yield of products per unit area. One of them is the problem of the growth of bryophyte plants (including Marchantia polymorpha L.) on the surface of the nutrient substrate. Forest nurseries in the European part of Russia and Siberia have faced this problem in recent years, while in the countries of North America and Europe' development of measures to combat volatile marching has long been relevant in both agriculture and forestry.
In this paper, based on the analysis of theoretical and practical data, we considered the factors determining the negative impact of marchant changeable on the growth and development of seedlings of Scots pine. The paper presents the results of a comparative analysis of the effectiveness of various measures to suppress the marching of variable in the closed and open ground of nurseries. Recommendations for growing seedlings of Scots pine with a closed root system, for preventing the appearance and growth of variable marschantia in the conditions of the Irkutsk region on the example of the greenhouse complex of Magistral-Transit LLC have been developed and implemented.

The article examines the theory of secondary linguistic personality in the prism of the linguoculturological approach as one of the significant aspects of modern foreign language education. In the process of teaching a foreign language, it is not enough to form only a language competence. To understand national thinking, in-depth knowledge of an extralinguistic nature is necessary, related to the peculiarities of the national mentality, its values and linguistic culture, which are reflected in communicative norms and traditions, features of speech etiquette.
The paper examines the relevance of integrated learning of a foreign language and national linguoculture. The problem of the content of linguistic and cultural information in textbooks on Russian as a foreign language is analyzed. The paper describes the ways of introducing educational material through national culture in the process of interaction of educational and extracurricular activities.
The use of the linguoculturological approach as a model of teaching Russian as a means of intercultural communication makes it possible to form an idea of the national picture of the world among foreign students through the specifics of culture in its verbal embodiment. The ability to perform adequately and successfully communicative activities in a non-native language is the result of the formation of students’ secondary linguistic consciousness.
OPTIMIZATION OF MECHANIZED FLEET AS FUNCTION OF CULTIVATED-AREA AT BEGINNING OF THE BIOENERGY BRAZILIAN PROGRAM (PRO-ALCOHOL)

In the 1960s, due to the closing of the US sugar market to Cuba (the Cuban crisis), the Brazilian government developed a strategy to occupy part of this market: through the Sugar and Alcohol Institute (IAA), which took several actions to lead to the modernization of sugar and alcohol agroindustry. This strategy was the basis for the national biofuel alcohol production program (Proalcool) in 1975. The ethanol jumped from 0.6 to 3.4 billion liters from 1975 to 1979/80, significantly exceeding the production target. This feat stimulated the Planalsucar (IAA) research to conduct an extensive survey of the fleet of agricultural machinery and implements in 67 units. The general aim of the present paper was to provide a historical record of this unedited survey database. The specific goal was to analyze the variation in the number of tractors and implements per thousand ha as a function of the sugarcane planting area to study the optimization of equipment use. We determined the linear correlation coefficient and the regression equation for each device. All significant correlation coefficients showed a decrease in the number of machines and implements per 1,000 ha related to cultivated area as follows: the number of tire tractors, total power of tire tractors (kW), harrows, plowers, furrows, loaders, and cultivators (cultivating implements). In other words, the larger the property, the smaller the need for tractors and implements per unit area. This work brought evidence to the performance of a process of the economy of scale in the sugarcane production system.

Published: April 2024

The process of evaluating the soil quality is complex and is impacted by a variety of physical, chemical, and biological indicators as well as how they interact over time, particularly throughout different cultivation periods. The main objective of the current investigation is to examine how various organic farming practices affect the soil quality indicators at selected organic farms throughout various cultivation times. The study sites in Egypt were selected to represent two great soil groups (Torripsamments and Haplotorrerts). Moreover, the selected farms have different organic cultivation periods and management practices. Soil samples were collected from five different farms and uncultivated soil in each soil great soil group as control. After analyzing soil samples in the lab, physical, chemical, and biological indicators were assessed and used to calculate the Soil Quality Index (SOI). Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was used to obtain the minimum data set needed for soil quality evaluation. The length of organic cultivation in Torripasament raised the SQI value for physical and chemical indicators in the following order: 2 years > 6 years > 10 years > 13 years. Similar to Torripsament, the most sensitive indicators for SQI assessment in Haplotorrert were found to be soil respiration, microbial biomass C, microbial quotient, organic matter, and physical characteristics of soil quality. Results also indicated that organic farming improves most of the studied soil quality indicators of both soils (Torripsamment and Haplotorrerts). Soil respiration, Microbial Biomass (MBC), Microbial Quotient (MQ), organic matter, and physical aspects of soil quality were the most sensitive indicators of soil quality evaluation. Soil quality index (SQI) for Torripsamment was affected mostly by soil biological indicators, while soil physical indicators were the main indicators affecting SQI in Haplotorrerts. The best score for the soil quality index was at 13 years of organic cultivation periods in Torripsamment and at 17 years in Haplotorrerts.
Sobre mulejas, cachejos, cebollejas y otras cosejas: funcionamiento y distribución de -ejo como sufijo apreciativo en España

Published: April 2024

Este trabajo tiene por objetivo delimitar la extensión y el funcionamiento del sufijo -ejo como apreciativo en España. Dado que se trata de un uso dialectal, se realizará una revisión de obras prescriptivas y de la nomenclatura toponímica española para analizar su trayectoria diacrónica. A partir de los datos de los atlas y corpus lingüísticos y de X/twitter, se fijará su distribución geográfica y semántica, y su alomorfia. Por último, en vista de que en La Mancha se usa de forma más frecuente, se examinará su relación con el sufijo -ete, con el que parece estar en distribución complementaria.
