Linguistic Phenomenon

It is common knowledge that Modern English (especially its American version) has become a language of international significance and is expanding its area of impact day by day. Naturally, Armenia could not remain unaffected. Bilingualism (Armenian and English), even trilingualism (including Russian) have doubled in our country in the last decade owing to the development of tourism, mixed marriages, growth in the number of international organizations and other factors.Bilingualism is closely related to a linguistic phenomenon in which the Armenian speech is complemented with English words, word combinations and even sentences. The reasons contributing to such phenomena are not only linguistic but also social-psychological. It is applied in most diverse social spheres – in the field of education in order to enhance one’s knowledge, in everyday speech to fill the vocabulary gaps and make some impression on the interlocuter, etc. Research suggests that code switching can contribute to borrowings from one language into another thereby enriching the Armenian vocabulary. On the other hand, if this process lasts long and encompasses larger masses it can distort the language and threaten the purity of the national language.

We study an elimination tournament with four contestants, each of whom has either a high value of winning (a strong player) or a low value of winning (a weak player) and these values are common knowledge. Each pairwise match is modeled as an all-pay auction. The winners of the first stage (semifinal) compete in the second stage (final) for the first prize, while the losers of the first stage compete for the third prize. We examine whether or not the game for the third prize is profitable for the designer who wishes to maximize the total effort of the players. We demonstrate that if the players are asymmetric and there are at least two strong players, then there is always a seeding of the players such that the third place game is not profitable. On the other hand, if there are at least two weak players, then there is always a seeding of the players such that the third place game is profitable.

In today's world where the importance of digitalization is increasing day by day, companies to increase their competitiveness have focused on digital supply chain instead of traditional supply chain. In a world where resources are constantly decreasing, the concept of sustainability has become very crucial in every part of life. Digital technologies, on the other hand, have a direct relationship with sustainability. Sustainability has three main dimensions: economic, environmental, and social. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate digital supply chain on 3 basic dimensions of sustainability. For this purpose, Fuzzy Best Worst Method (F-BWM) was used to define the importance level of criteria. Findings reveal that the concept of sustainability in textile firms in Turkey is generally perceived within an economic and environmental area, rather than within a social dimension. This study is very important in putting forward digital technologies which utilizing in supply chain and the impact of the digital supply chain on sustainability.

ABSTRACTThe purpose of this article is to compare two analytical perspectives that have interpreted the democratization of the international organizations (IOs) in the years 1990 and 2000. The first of this perspectives is supported by authors such as Robert Dahl and Philippe Schmitter who consider improbable to realize the democracy in the space outside the national States. They are 'skeptical', according to the term employed by Dahl to refer to their perspective. On the other hand, David Held sustained a more optimistic interpretation by advocating that the nature of contemporary democracy suffered changes as result of the economic globalization process. For this reason, Held considered possible the democratization of IOs as well as the development of a ‘cosmopolitan citizenship’, located above the limits of the States. To develop the counterpoint between this two perspectives, this article will carry out a literature review of the production of the two authors and will be divided into two main sections. The first one will examine the prospect 'skeptical' of Robert Dahl regarding the possibility of democratization of international organizations. The second section examines the cosmopolitan perspective from David Held. In concluding remarks, the article identifies the elements of reflection generated by two perspectives concerning the sense of democracy in the context of globalization.RESUMOO propósito deste artigo é comparar duas perspectivas analíticas que interpretaram as possibilidades de democra-tização das organizações internacionais (OIGs) nos anos 1990 e 2000. A primeira dessas perspectivas é sustentada por autores como Robert Dahl e Philippe Schmitter que consideram improvável a realização da democracia fora do espaço dos Estados nacionais. Eles seriam “céticos”, para empregar o termo utilizado por Dahl para se referir à sua perspectiva. De outro lado, David Held sustentou uma interpretação mais otimista ao defender que a natureza da democracia contemporâ-nea sofreu alterações resultantes do processo de globalização econômica. Por essa razão, Held considerou possível tanto a democratização das OIGs como o desenvolvimento de uma “cidadania cosmopolita”, situada acima dos limites dos Estados. Para desenvolver o contraponto entre estas duas perspectivas, este artigo realizará uma revisão bibliográfica da produção dos dois autores e estará dividido em duas seções principais. A primeira delas examinará a perspectiva “cética” de Robert Dahl com relação à possibilidade de democratização das organizações internacionais. A segunda seção examinará a pers-pectiva cosmopolita de David Held. Nas considerações finais, o artigo identificará os elementos de reflexão gerados pelas duas perspectivas a respeito do sentido da democracia no contexto da globalização.

Historically, coronaviral illness were reported with co-infection with TB; Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2) is not an exception. As both diseases have overlapping clinical features, sometimes it maybe very difficult to diagnose and long standing features of TB can easily be mistaken for post-acute COVID-19. This report emphasizes the importance of suspecting TB-COVID co-infection and its grave consequences. Birdem Med J 2020; 10, COVID Supplement: 111-114

Introduction: It is common knowledge, that usually a dog is a friend to a man. There are very many examples which can confirm this thesis. And really, we know many cases when dogs/pets help in our life and even save a man if he/she is in a dangerous situation (into a water – to protect against to sink into the water), to defend against many people (robber, thief, violator, murderer). There are dogs which have the good skills like a leader/guide for the old people or in the case if a man is practically blind. On the other hand, there are many persons/owners who are ready to help their dogs, to feed, to wash, to treat, to go for a walk in any weather, to create rather comfortable conditions for living. Unfortunately, each of us has the tendency to aging both a man and a dog. In this case we are needed to help to all of them. Elderly people very often have different diseases connected, for example, with a head (sclerosis/memory), with eyesight (cataract, glaucoma), with a heart (tachycardia), with lungs (pneumonia) and they can quickly gather big weight in accordance with their life activity. But let’s suppose the definite man periodically has a problem with his legs to go for a walk with his beloved dog twice a day and for a long time. So, in this article there is one example how to solve this problem for the old man using special cage with the automated system of a control. It helps for the animal to save shape and activity in the flat conditions without any walk. And at the same time there is one important information about a man who has the different activities in a life to protect against the obesity.

Chapter 24 surveys the book’s main arguments, which include especially the emergence of the modern language / dialect distinction during the early sixteenth century and the subsequent formulation of its main interpretations. Above all, however, this chapter emphasizes that the language / dialect distinction unmistakably has a history, for too long neglected, and that it is not a timeless and self-evident given. Having established its historicity, Chapter 24 fields the question of whether the conceptual pair has a future, to which an answer, both tentative and brief, is offered. On the one hand, it is suggested that a reconceptualization of the distinction can be a viable option. On the other hand, the fact that the conceptual pair has become common knowledge gives linguists not only the opportunity but also, and especially, the responsibility to take on a more prominent societal role in language / dialect disputes.
