 AbstractThis paper presents a descriptive analysis of verbs with the participle marking affixes in expressing causatives in Dangme, a language that belongs to the Kwa group of the Niger-Congo family of languages.  The paper examines the syntax and the semantic perspectives of the participialized form of causative verbs in the Role and Reference Grammar’s (RRG) theory in Dangme. The participle is an affix which expresses the completion at the final stage of a process. As a verbal affix, it can take objects and have tense or aspect in languages. They also indicate active agency (actor) and an agency receiving an action (sufferer). Generally affixes that express participial are in two forms: the finite and non-finite categories. Unlike Akan and other languages that have both forms, Dangme has just the non-finite category which of two forms. The two non-finite forms of the verb in Dangme are the participle and the gerund. The gerund affix {-mi} denotes a new word class from verbs in Dangme, (noun). The participle on the other hand has adjective-like characteristics and it is expressed mostly with the front vowels of Dangme: /i, e, ԑ/. It is to be noted that to form the participle in Dangme, two processes are required. Firstly, the verb stem is reduplicated either partially or totally depending on the shape of the verb stem. The reduplicant then selects a front vowel of the same tongue height of the vowel of the verb stem. The words formed imply a process of change caused by a causer. For the purpose of this paper, my focus is on the participial affix used in expressing causative meaning in Dangme.

El objetivo principal de esta investigación ha sido conocer y analizar la inclusión de actividades de danza en la práctica educativa del aula de Educación Infantil desde la perspectiva de los docentes. Los participantes (N=105) han sido maestras/os que imparten docencia en el segundo ciclo de Educación Infantil en centros educativos de la Región de Murcia (España). Para la recogida de datos se ha diseñado un cuestionario ad hoc y posteriormente se ha aplicado un análisis descriptivo a la información obtenida. Los resultados reflejan que los especialistas de Educación Infantil de la Región de Murcia incluyen en sus programaciones y en su práctica docente actividades de danza. Asimismo, las consideran fundamentales en el desarrollo integral del alumnado y que este responde de forma positiva y activa a este tipo de actividades. Por otro lado, alertan de la necesidad de mejorar la oferta formativa con respecto a estas materias y la calidad y cantidad de medios y recursos para llevarlas adecuadamente a la práctica. Abstract. The main objective of this research was to learn and analyze the inclusion of dance activities in Preschool teaching practices from the perspective of teachers. Participants (N=105) were teachers who teach at the second cycle of Preschool Education in schools from the Region of Murcia (Spain). An ad hoc questionnaire was designed for the collection of data, and descriptive analysis was subsequently applied. The results reflect that specialists of Preschool Education from the Region of Murcia include dance activities in their planning and teaching practices. Likewise, they consider them fundamental for the integral development of students, who respond in a positive and active way to this type of activities. On the other hand, they call the attention on the need to improve both teacher training with respect to these subjects and the quality and quantity of resources to carry them properly into practice.

This article focuses on palatalisation in the Irish spoken by Dublin-based bilinguals for whom English is their first language. All informants had a good knowledge of both Irish and English; however, Irish was their second language, used less frequently in everyday communication. Most Dubliners start learning Irish at school; only a few informants had the opportunity to speak it at home, but even then the language was not used outside class on a regular basis. The study showed that most deviations in the distribution of palatalised and non-palatalised consonants in the speech of Dublin bilinguals were of the palatalisation absence type. Such deviations were especially frequent next to back and mid-back vowels. On the other hand, a palatalised consonant was often pronounced instead of a non-palatalised one next to a front vowel. Previous research suggests that these tendencies also apply in weak positions (Snesareva 2014a; 2014b). Consequently, even though in traditional Irish dialects palatalisation is not position-bound, in the speech of Dublin bilinguals there is correlation between the palatalisation of a consonant and the quality of its neighbouring vowel. However, such consonant distribution was not encountered in all contexts: even those informants whose speech had deviations used palatalisation properly in some contexts. This means that position-bound use of palatalisation is still a tendency rather than an entrenched feature of Dublin Irish.

This study discusses the forms of crime in the context of criminal acts or the comparison of criminal acts (same loop) that occur in society. This happens where one person commits a crime, but it is not uncommon for one person to commit several functional crimes at the same time in the same place. On the other hand, there is also one person who determines the number of crimes at different times in different locations which in criminal law is known as the term of criminal acts or sharing criminal acts (same loop) or in Dutch is same loop van Strafbare Feiten. This study uses a normative method using qualitative descriptive analysis. The results of this study indicate that there are three forms of criminal acts namely Concursus Idialis, continuing actions and realist Concursus while the penal system in the proportion of criminal acts can be applied to three methods, namely Stelsel absorption, cumulative Stelsel, and limited cumulative Stelsel.Keywords: criminal code; criminal system; joint crime. AbstrakPenelitian ini membahas tentang bentuk-bentuk kejahatan perbarengan perbuatan pidana atau perbarengan tindak pidana (samenloop) yang terjadi di dalam masyarakat. Hal tersebut bisa terjadi dimana satu orang melakukan satu kejahatan tapi tidak jarang terjadi satu orang melakukan beberapa kejahatan baik dalam waktu yang sama di tempat yang sama. Disisi lain, ada juga satu orang yang melakukan beberapa kejahatan pada waktu yang berbeda di tempat yang berbeda pula yang dalam hukum pidana dikenal dengan istilah perbarengan perbuatan pidana atau perbarengan tindak pidana (samenloop) atau dalam bahasa belanda ialah sameloop van strafbare feiten. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode normatif, dengan menggunakan analisis deskriptif kualitatif. Adapun hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa ada tiga bentuk perbarengan tindak pidana yaitu concursus idialis, perbuatan berlanjut dan concursus realis sedangkan sistem pemidanaan dalam perbarengan tindak pidana dapat diterapkan tiga stelsel yaitu stelsel absorpsi, stelsel kumulasi dan stelsel kumulasi terbatas.Kata kunci: KUHP; sistem pemidanaan; perbarengan tindak pidana.

The present article has two objectives. One is to elucidate the philosophical approach presented in the so-called Strahov Systematic Manuscripts of Jan Patočka in terms of consciousness and nature. The other is to compare this philosophical approach with Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s theses on nature, as elaborated in 1956–1961, and to point out some advantages and limitations of both approaches. In our opinion, Patočka’s philosophical approach consists, on the one hand, in a descriptive analysis of human experience, which he understands as a pre-reflective self-relationship pointing towards the consciousness of the world. On the other hand, on the basis of this descriptive analysis Patočka consequently explicates all non-human life, inorganic matter, and finally the whole of nature as life in its own right, the essence of which is also a certain self-relation with a tendency towards consciousness. The article then briefly presents Merleau-Ponty’s theses on nature, and finally compares them with Patočka’s overall theses on nature. The advantage of Patočka’s notion of nature as against Merleau-Ponty’s is that, in Patočka’s view, nature encompasses both the principle of unity and individuality. On the other hand, the advantage of Merleau-Ponty’s understanding of nature as against Patočka’s lies in the consistent interconnectedness of the infinite life of nature and the finite life of individual beings.

So far, in social media, the hadith "ballighū 'annī walau āyah" has been widely misunderstood as a proposition for preaching even if it is only one verse. On the other hand, this hadith is also used as a suggestion for preaching without understanding the full meaning of a verse. This understanding is different from the real understanding, so a comprehensive discussion is needed to describe it. This article aims to identify misconceptions in understanding the hadith "ballighū 'annī walau āyah" on social media twitter and meet them with the correct meanings of the hadith. This study is a qualitative study which classify and analyze data by descriptive analysis. The discussion of this article explains how the hadith ballighū 'annī walau āyah is understood by Twitter netizens. The understanding of netizens is grouped into two categories, namely those that are appropriate and not in accordance with their real understanding. The factors that lead to misunderstanding of the hadith ballighū 'annī walau āyah are the insights of the hadith that are conveyed only a piece (not intact) and the dissemination of understanding through social media twitter with a short number of characters. This phenomenon causes a transformation of the hadith understanding in the form of degradation and distortion

Accretion from many small planetesimals to planets is reviewed. Solid protoplanets accrete through runaway and oligarchic growth until they become isolated. The isolation mass of protoplanets in terrestrial planet region is about 0.1-0.2 Earth mass, which suggests giant impacts among the protoplanets in the final stage of terrestrial planet formation. On the other hand, the isolation mass in Jupiter's and Saturn's orbits is about a few to 5 Earth masses, which may be massive enough to trigger gas accretion onto the cores. The isolation mass in Uranus and Neptune's orbits is as large as their present cores. Extending the above arguments to extrasolar planetary systems that are formed from disks with various initial masses, we also discuss diversity of extrasolar planetary systems.

SUMMARY For over a century it has been axiomatic with Romance linguists that the formation of rising diphthongs in stressed syllables, at the threshold of the medieval period, was controlled by the given word's environment; by quantity (and, later, by quality) of the accented Latin vowel; and in most daughter languages (but not in Spanish) by the configuration of the syllable. On the other hand, it was believed to be irrelevant, by Hispanists, whether the stressed vowel was the ultimate, the penultimate, or the antepenultimate; and, so far as the last-mentioned situation was concerned, what vowel presided over the following post-tonic syllable. The present paper attempts to demonstrate that the prosodic position of the syllable at issue within the word is by no means irrelevant: Diphthongs thrive if followed by post-tonic a, but wither if followed by a front vowel. Certain developments previously deemed inexplicable thus begin to fall into place; for instance, Lat. pertica "pole"> O.Sp. piertega was replaced, before 1600, by (originally dialectal) pertiga. RÉSUMÉ Les romnisants ont suppose, depuis plus d'un siecle, que la di-phtongaison en syllabe accentue, a l'aube du myen age, dependait, es-sentiellemnt des facteurs suivants: des phonemes contigus; de la quantite (et, plus tard, de la qualite) de la voyelle latine d'origine; enfi de la coupe de la syllabe. D'atre part, les hispanistes n'at-tachaient aucune importance ala place qu'occupait la syllabe accentuee al'interieur du mot; et si ce mot etait proparoxyton, on ne se preoc-cupait pas trop de la voyelle post-tonique. Le present travail aspire a demntrer que les facteurs longtemps negliges ne manquent pas d'etre importants. Les interlocuteurs en ef-fet favorisent la diphtongue en syllabe antepenultieme si la voyelle suivante est a, mais pas du tout si elle est e ou i. Temoin le deve-loppement de latin pertica "perche", qui en ancien espagnol avait pro-duit piertega, tandis que le resultat posterieur (moyennant un emprunt fait aux dialectes) a ete pertiga. ZUSAMMENFASSUNG Seit über einem Jahrhundert haben die Romanisten damit gerechnet, daB die Diphthongierung in betonter Silbe von folgenden Faktoren ab-hangt: der lautlichen Umgebung; der Quantitat (und spater der Quali-tat) des betonten Vokals im Lateinischen; schlieBlich von der Struktur der betreffenden Silbe. Hingegen schien die Stellung der betonten Silbe innerhalb des Wortes ziemlich unwichtig; wo es sich urn ein Proparoxy-tonon handelte, schien der Vokal der auf den Ton folgenden Silbe keine sonderliche Rolle zu spielen. Die hier vorgelegte Analyse raumt mit einigen dieser traditionel-len Auffassungen auf. Es ergibt sich namlich, daB ein a in der nach-tonigen Silbe den steigenden Diphthong eines Proparoxytonons fordert, wahrend ein e oder i in dieser Stellung ihn gefahrdet. So wird es nun-mehr zum ersten Mai verstandlich, daB lat. pertica "pfahl, Stock" zwar im Altspanischen piertega ergeben konnte, daB aber die neuere Form (den Mundarten entnommen) pértiga heißt.

The objective of the article was to investigate the contributions of the information platforms of the branches of governments of Brazilian states to build passive transparency. A descriptive study was carried out, through documentary research, with a predominantly qualitative approach. The object of investigation comprises the executive, legislative and judicial branches of governments of Brazilian states. The data were collected in February 2017 using the structured observation technique, through a protocol for recording information. The data obtained were analyzed using the descriptive analysis technique. The indicators for evaluation of the platforms were ‘communication’, ‘login and receipts’ and ‘barriers’, and they presented different configurations in each of the branches. In terms of ‘communication’ and ‘login and receipts’, in general, the state executive branch received better scores compared to the judiciary and legislative branches. On the other hand, the indicator ‘barriers’, was better evaluated in the judiciary and legislative branches. From the results obtained, it is not yet possible to confirm whether the platforms of the executive, judicial and legislative branches of the Brazilian states contribute to build passive transparency.

The existence of stepchild in a household is often the source of the household disharmony between husband and wife. It is common for this disharmony to lead to divorce.On the other hand, the stepchild often receives discriminatory and even cruel treatment. By using the descriptive analysis method, the author collected the data on the life of the Prophet -peace and blessings of Allah be upon him- with his stepchildren.Then the data were analysed, in order to reveal his practical and applicabletips from living with the stepchildren. The author madethe Prophet life with his stepchildren the object of research, asthe Prophet is a role model for mankind in every aspect of life. He had of course taught a set of applicable and effective tips in living a married life with his stepchildren. Moreover, he married ten widowed women who all had children from their previous marriage. From analysing these data, the author found at least six practical tips that the Prophet exemplified so that he succeeded in interacting with all of his stepchildren.From this research, the author concluded that one of the solutions to the success of the Prophet -peace and blessings of Allah be upon him-in interacting with his stepchildren is because he positioned them as one of the keys to the Prophet’s marriage with their mothers and as one of the keys to happiness in the household. Likewise, the Prophet never perceived his stepchildren as a threat to the peace of his household.

Columbite-(Fe) is a post-magmatic accessory mineral occurring within syenogranites and greisens from the Desemborque Pluton. The petrographic (SEM) and geochemical (EPMA and LA-ICPMS) examination of this mineral shows two distinct textural types within both the rocks, named columbite-1 and columbite-2. The columbite-1 type is characterized by zoned crystals with two stages of crystallization: i) An early Nb-rich cores with low Ta/(Ta + Nb) and Mn/(Mn + Fe) ratios (0.02–0.08 and 0.17 to 0.21 apfu, respectively), and ii) a later Ta-rich rims with higher Ta/(Ta + Nb) ratios (0.11–0.26) and similar Mn/(Mn + Fe) ratios (from 0.14 to 0.22) relative to the former cores. On the other hand, the columbite-2 type is defined by irregular crystals with patchy textures and very low Ta/(Ta + Nb) ratios (0.008–0.038) and moderate Mn/(Mn + Fe) ratios between 0.20 and 0.38. Trace element compositions of all columbite-(Fe) crystals are relatively enriched in HREEs and HFSEs; however, the columbite-2 presents higher abundances of REEs, Y, Th, U, Pb, Sc, and Sn relative to the columbite-1. This study highlights a unique hydrothermal origin for both the columbite types, but the textural relations of the columbite-2 crystals indicated that its formation is related to fluid-induced alterations of post-magmatic fluorite and/or cassiterite crystals at the final stage of the post-magmatic evolution.
