Evaporite rocks as a factor in formation of non-structural traps

The paper considers the improvement in classification of oil and gas traps formed in non-anticlinal conditions. The relevant aim is to expand the areas where hydrocarbon accumulations are searched for and to take into account the new search attributes. Evaporite rocks, widely developed in many oil and gas basins, have properties that contribute to the preservation of hydrocarbon deposits. Depending on the structural features of the salt formations, their impact on the location of oil and gas deposits varies. The deposits associated with the evaporite rocks are analyzed. Types of traps, the main factor in formation of which are evaporites, are defined. Such traps are proposed to be treated as a separate category. Keywords: evaporite rocks; non-structural and combined traps; hydrocarbon accumulations; classifications of traps; tectonic style; sealed reservoirs.

ON MUTUAL PRONOUNS IN THE LEZGHIN LANGUAGE

The article deals with the study of the problem of mutual pronouns in the Lezghin language, namely, the expe-diency of separating this category into a separate category, and those features of the Lezghin language, due to which such a selection is problematic.

FUNCTIONING OF ATTRACTIVE NONS IN THE AVAR LANGUAGE

Pronouns in the grammatical structure of the Avar language represent one of the most peculiar lexical and grammatical categories both in terms of semantics and in terms of structure. Possessive pronouns are usually not distinguished as an independent lexically separate category in the Avar language. In the function of possessive pronouns, the forms of the genitive case of pronouns of the corresponding categories are used here.

Differential object marking in Modern Hebrew: from definiteness to partitivity

This paper investigates the change in differential object marking (DOM) currently exhibited in Modern Hebrew. To date, the consensus in the theoretical literature on Hebrew has been that the object marker 'et' is only licensed in the context of definite DPs. We observe, however, that in Modern Hebrew partitive indefinite DPs may also be preceded by 'et'. Here, we experimentally investigate this change in the distribution of 'et'. Using a judgment task, we asked 41 native Hebrew-speaking adults to rate sentences with 'et'-marked indefinite object DPs on a 5-point acceptability scale. Our results reveal that partitive items received a considerably high acceptance score, with an overall average of 3.6/5. In addition, we found a main effect for object-position and quantifier-type. In particular, acceptability of 'et'-marked partitives increased significantly for topicalized DPs and for DPs that contained proportional quantifiers (as opposed to cardinals). These data support the analysis of 'et' as a DOM marker. We propose that Modern Hebrew is currently undergoing a process of change, whereby the distribution of its object marker is shifting in the direction of the Turkish DOM pattern, along the Definiteness Scale proposed by Aissen (2003). Further, the Hebrew facts provide novel evidence for the relevance of this scale not only in a synchronic, but also in a diachronic investigation of DOM. Moreover, they point to a special status of partitivity among specific DPs, suggesting that it should be distinguished as a separate category on the Definiteness Scale.

The Limits to Machine Consciousness

It is generally accepted that machines can replicate cognitive tasks performed by conscious agents as long as they are not based on the capacity of awareness. We consider several views on the nature of subjective awareness, which is fundamental for self-reflection and review, and present reasons why this property is not computable. We argue that consciousness is more than an epiphenomenon and assuming it to be a separate category is consistent with both quantum mechanics and cognitive science. We speak of two kinds of consciousness, little-C and big-C, and discuss the significance of this classification in analyzing the current academic debates in the field. The interaction between the system and the measuring apparatus of the experimenter is examined both from the perspectives of decoherence and the quantum Zeno effect. These ideas are used as context to address the question of limits to machine consciousness.

Linguistic incentive category: definition and classification: example of different systematic languages

The article discusses the difference between the category of motivation and the modality, that is, it is a type of speech act in which the speaker's wishes, desires, wills, and intentions are given to the listener. While modality refers to the speaker’s response to the content of a sentence, the urge is expressed as the speaker’s command to the listener. The reason why motivation is separated from modality as a separate category is that it combines several elements under a common motivational semaphore, which on the one hand motivates the addressee to do something as part of a complex whole, but on the other hand they do not intersect. Each component has its own specific motivation, for example: command, request, permission, prohibition, advice, warning, and so on. Motivation as an independent category has a communicative semantic tone and its own structure. The structure of the motivation category consists of a combination of content, transmission, and expression. The content side consists of communicative pragmatic and semantic components, the delivery plan consists of a field of language units that reflect the meaning of the impulse, and the expressive aspect consists of phonological, intonation and graphic parts.

Cost sensitivity of international students in the largest hungarian university cities

Statistics on international students distinguish between diploma mobility (full-time students abroad) and credit mobility (part-time courses, student exchanges such as Erasmus+, etc.). In terms of economic benefits, their common feature is mostly realised in the spendings by the foreign students in the host country. The comparison of the host cities reveals that Budapest should be considered as a separate category being different from the other cities in many respects. Although, the assessment of the other three university centres (Pécs, Debrecen and Szeged) received similar evaluations (close average values) but some kind of order developed between them in which Szeged and Pécs are perhaps regarded in a little bit more favourable position than Debrecen. There is a lot to be improved to broaden the studentification process in these cities particularly in four fields. The evaluations can certainly be considered useful in the sense that they help to identify those services which are problematic in any terms (price or quality).

CAUSAL EVENTS RELATED TO PRENATAL AND PERINATAL CARE ABOUT OF CIVIL LIABILITY FOR INJURIES SUFFERED BEFORE BIRTH

The issue of civil liability of injuries suffered before birth it is a multi-threaded and interdisciplinary issue. This subject covers a relatively wide range of causal events that may result in damage to the legally protected property of the victim. This study considers the potential for harm in connection with prenatal care, as well as in relation to perinatal care. The study attempts to define the ways of understanding prenatal diagnosis and to indicate the legal basis for its performance. Possible exemplary causal events related to it were also identified. Delicts related to perinatal care were distinguished as a separate category. The considerations were compared with civil liability for damage.

Everyday Scandals: Regulating the Buddhist Monastic Body in Thai Media

Although allegations of monastic financial embezzlement and sexual misconduct are the most frequent and outrageous monastic scandals reported in Thailand's media outlets, this article discusses a separate category of scandal I label ‘everyday scandals.’ This type of scandal describes the phenomenon of monks committing bodily transgressions, including inappropriate behaviours outside the temple and unacceptable presentations of the body. For Thai Buddhist laity, photos of monks taking trips to the mall and working out at a gym can be indicators that their religion is in decline. A proper male monastic body enacting acceptable behaviour signals the difference of the monastic life from the lay life, ensuring the efficacy of merit and ritual performance. The regulation of everyday monastic life is a fertile topic in Thai media. Because the Buddhist monastic institution is interconnected with the Thai nation-state, the male monastic body is a site of evaluation and critique. At stake is national Thai heritage and pride in Thailand's majority religion: Buddhism. Besides the strength of contemporary Thai Buddhism, everyday scandals also reveal continuity in the discourse of decline and anxiety over monastic behaviour, which began with the earliest Buddhist communities. The threat of Buddhism's decline is part of a continuum of debates within monastic texts and Buddhist history regarding proper monastic behaviours in public.

The Role Of Actual Units Of Division In The Compositional-Syntactic Structure Of Poetic Speech

The article presents theoretical views on the compositional-syntactic structure of poetic speech, which is one of the problematic issues in the field of poetic syntax and the study of its actual division. Within the framework of the Uzbek poetic syntax, the importance of studying the issue of actual division as a separate category in the study of Uzbek poetic speech based on the experience of world linguistics.
