Based on the analysis of a sample of 3,091 deverbal nouns ending with 46 different suffixes in French, the study examines the diversity of semantic functions realized by deverbal suffixes, the distribution of these functions across suffixes and the relationships that may exist between different functions. It appears that polyfunctionality is widespread among French deverbal suffixes and involves a large number of semantic functions, with highly variable realization frequency. Several fundamental aspects of affix polyfunctionality are further highlighted. A probabilistic analysis shows that polyfunctionality can be driven by non-arbitrary semantic associations between functions. A hierarchy of functions can also be postulated depending on whether they can be instantiated by monosemous or only polysemous derivatives. In addition, polyfunctionality appears to be inseparable from rivalry relationships and to determine the degree of rivalry between affixes. Overall, the study illustrates that affix polyfunctionality is governed by systematic organizing principles whose ramifications touch on lexical ambiguity and morphological competition.</p>","PeriodicalId":74228,"journal":{"name":"Morphology (Dordrecht, Netherlands)","volume":"33 1","pages":"1-39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10014677/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9508307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study was performed on Mauthner neurons of the goldfish fry (n=12) by the methods of light and electron microscopy. The identification of Mauthner's neurons and the reconstruction of their integral structure, the determination of the volume of the soma, ventral and lateral dendrites and the study of the structure of afferent synapses were carried out using serial sections 3 m thick.Results. The use of L-dopa stabilizes the size of the soma and ventral dendrites. A decrease in the volume of the lateral dendrite is accompanied either by an increase in the volume of its branches under the action of beta-amyloid, then L-dopa, or an increase in the volume of medial dendrites under the action of L-dopa, then beta-amyloid. Pathological changes in the ultrastructure of neurons and afferent synapses were not found, but signs of early amyloidosis were revealed.Conclusions. The use of L-dopa slows down the degeneration of Mauthner's neurons. It has been suggested that the resistance of whole neurons to the neurotoxic action of beta-amyloid is due to the mechanism of structural homeostasis aimed at compensatory restoration of the morphological organization of neurons.","PeriodicalId":74228,"journal":{"name":"Morphology (Dordrecht, Netherlands)","volume":"172 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74854447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sectional material for the study of the portal vein of the liver and splenic vein was obtained from 89 people aged 7 to 30 years who died from injuries incompatible with life. In 57 cases during life, patients had a history of portal hypertension, the remaining 32 cases were considered as controls. Cellular and tissue components of the vein walls were studied on paraffin sections stained with hematoxylin-eosin, as well as according to Van Gieson using Weigert's hematoxylin, picric acid, and fuchsin. \u0000Results. It was found that in case of portal hypertension, in comparison with the control, the thickness of the inner and middle membranes of venous vessels significantly increased in all age groups. Pathological features of changes in the thickness and microstructure of the components of the portal vein wall of the liver and splenic vein in topographically different parts of the veins are shown. \u0000Conclusions. Pathological changes in the wall of the portal vein of the liver and splenic vein in portal hypertension are pronounced and regular in both young people and children and adolescents, which is an urgent problem for clinical practice.

The study was carried out on 20 male Wistar rats, of which 15 animals were injected with a bacterial-fungal suspension by introducing into the cavity of the hock (tarsus) joint Klebsiella-Candida suspension (1: 1) with a microorganism concentration of 106 CFU / ml , using museum strains Klebsiella pneumoniae ICIS - 278 and Candida albicans ATCC 24433 under the control of an X-ray apparatus FireCR +. Five intact animals served as control.

In rats infected with Klebiella-candidiasis suspension, pain syndrome and functional changes typical for arthritis were noted on days 2-3. Bacteriological examination of the affected joints in 75% of rats isolated cultures of Klebsiella pneumoniae, identical, according to PCR, to the original strain, which is part of the bacterial-fungal suspension. At the same time, fungi of the genus Candida, also used in the experiment for infecting animals, were not detected from the affected joints of rats. The reproduced model of Klebsiella-Candida arthritis is characterized by pathomorphological signs of panarthritis, accompanied by purulent inflammation of all joint structures (synovial membrane, cartilage and bone tissue) with the involvement of soft periarticular tissues. \u0000Conclusions.

I accounted for the differences observed on the wordhood of Korean CPCs from the perspective of word-formation and described the synchronic formation and change of Korean CPCs. Korean CPCs are formed synchronically through the concatenative process that occurs when clauses are formed in the syntactic component or the substitutional process and concatenative process in the mental lexicon. Korean CPCs which are formed in the mental lexicon are more likely to be word-like, while CPCs which are formed in the syntactic component are more likely to phrase-like. Korean CPCs that are formed synchronically are used in the syntactic component and experiences formal, semantic, and categorial changes. The formal and semantic change of Korean CPCs are related to the realization of the case-marker/particle and metaphor/metonymy, respectively, and the categorial change of Korean CPCs is due to reanalysis. Because of these changes, I pointed out that the wordhood of the Korean CPCs may decrease or increase.","PeriodicalId":74228,"journal":{"name":"Morphology (Dordrecht, Netherlands)","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73344456","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contextual meaning (α), there is temporary α as well as the more stabilized conventional α. Unlike conventional α that have already solidified into literal meaning, temporary α is actively being formed in both extralinguistic contexts, such as social stereotypes and personal variables, and intralinguistic contexts.

Nakagawa(2020) is mainly based on the analysis of the Corpus of Spontaneous Japanese, and uses the frame of referential information status which is a modified version of Prince(1981)’s assumed familiarity taxonomy and the category of topic and focus defined according to ‘controversiality’. The topic particles such as toiuno-wa, wa, COP-kedo/ga, and ∅ are shown to be distributed in different scopes of given-new taxonomy, and the focus particles such as ga, o, and ∅ are claimed to be correlated with the grammatical and semantic properties of NP and the type of focus. Topic and focus are claimed to appear clause-initially and right before the predicate, respectively, and to tend to be uttered in phrasal IUs (intonational units) and clausal IUs, respectively. We point out several problems of Nakagawa(2020) that it needs full discussion of discriminating topic and focus markers, more detailed description of the relationship between IUs and informational status, and reconsidering of so-called information-structure continuity principle.
