Os problemas de imigração ilegal, terrorismo, tráfico de drogas e outros têm feito com que os países se preocupem em controlar do modo mais eficaz possível a entrada e saída de pessoas estrangeiras. Dessa forma, alguns países estão desenvolvendo técnicas para confirmar com precisão se o portador do documento é seu legítimo detentor. Diante da forte relação entre Brasil e França, estudar a terminologia dos passaportes e elaborar um glossário dos termos nele encontrados é de grande importância social, visto que pode colaborar para uma melhor comunicação entre autoridades alfandegárias e também contribui intensamente para o trabalho dos tradutores juramentados ao se depararem com passaportes ou até outros documentos da área jurídica. Nosso projeto se insere em um projeto maior, o Lextraju - O léxico para a tradução juramentada, coordenado pela Profa. Dra. Lidia Almeida Barros na Unesp de São José do Rio Preto. Cada membro do Lextraju trabalha com um tipo de documento, visando no futuro, à criação de um dicionário jurídico. / A passport is a personal identity document that legally protects its owner abroad and allows its entry and circulation in countries with which their country has relations. The problems of illegal immigration, terrorism, drug trafficking and others have done that countries worry about controlling the most effective way the entry and exit of foreigners. Therefore, some countries are developing techniques to confirm if the document holder is the legitimate holder. Given the strong relationship between Brazil and France, studying the terminology of passports and elaborating a glossary of terms found in it, it is a great social importance, since it can contribute to a better communication between customs authorities and also strongly contributes to sworn translators work, when they face with passports or other documents of legal area. Our project makes part of a larger project, Lextraju – O Léxico para a tradução juramentada, coordinated by Profa . Dra . Lidia Almeida Barros, at Unesp in São José do Rio Preto. Each member of Lextraju works with a different document, aiming in the future, the creation of a legal dictionary.

Para tanto, nosso trabalho consiste na elaboração de um dicionário Terminológico Onomasiológico eletrônico dos neônimos do domínio da Biotecnologia no Brasil, buscando a realização do tratamento dos dados em português e seus equivalentes em inglês; para o qual, seguimos os pressupostos propostos por Babini (2001). Entende-se por dicionário onomasiológico todo dicionário que permite encontrar uma unidade lexical ou terminológica a partir de seu conteúdo semântico. A metodologia empregada no tratamento terminográfico e na pesquisa terminológica bilíngue foi norteada pela TCT (Teoria Comunicativa da Terminologia), que nos auxiliou a lidar com as diferenças existentes entre os dois idiomas estudados. As principais referências metodológicas e teóricas que guiaram nossas buscas, especialmente no que tange aos neônimos, à formação de palavras e à busca equivalentes lexicais, foram Alves (2009, 2008, 2007, 2001), Felber (1984), Dubuc (1985), Rondeau (1984), Alpìzar-Castillo (1995), Cabré (1993, 1999), Barros (2004), Babini (2006, 2001a, 2001). Um ponto inovador do modelo adotado são as possibilidades de buscas. Em particular, nosso dicionário oferece ao usuário o semema (conjunto de semas ou traços semânticos que compõe o conceito de cada termo do dicionário) em língua portuguesa, bem como as equivalências em língua inglesa. Como suporte eletrônico para a criação de nosso dicionário, criamos uma base de dados no Microsoft Access, sendo as informações armazenadas...

To this end, our study relies on the elaboration of an Electronic Onomasiological Terminological Dictionary of the Biotechnology Neonims, searching equivalents in English and performing the data treatment in Portuguese; for which we followed the ideas proposed by Babini (2001). An onomasiological dictionary can be understood as any dictionary that allows to find a lexical or terminological unit from its semantic content. The methodology employed in the terminographic treatment and in the terminological research was guided by the CTT (Communicative Theory of Terminology), which served to handle the existing differences between the two languages studied. The main methodological and theoretical references that guided our searches, specially when it comes to neonims, word formation and the search for lexical equivalents were Alves (2009, 2008, 2007, 2001), Felber (1984), Dubuc (1985), Rondeau (1984), Alpìzar-Castillo (1995), Cabré (1993, 1999), Barros (2004), Babini (2006, 2001a, 2001). An innovative feature in the adopted model are the search possibilities. Specifically, our dictionary offers to the user the sememe (set of semes or semantic traits that compose each term in the dictionary) in the Portuguese language, as well as the equivalents in the English language. As for the electronic platform for the dictionary, we created a database in MS Access, and the information was stored in tables, what allowed a better organization and treatment of the information. Finally, we introduce the constitutive elements of a dictionary, since our objective was the elaboration of an onomasiological terminological dictionary of Biotechnology neonims. We also observed the word formation... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) / Doutor

A produção dessa obra fundamenta-se no fato de que as pesquisas em Lexicografia que relacionam aspectos culturais ao léxico têm demonstrado a importância que esse tipo de unidade desempenha na transmissão e na recepção de conhecimentos a respeito das características de uma sociedade. Essa constatação permite ponderar que os itens lexicais pertencentes a uma determinada língua determinam aspectos ligados às crenças, aos costumes e, de forma específica neste estudo, às características sexuais de seus indivíduos. Dessa maneira, realizamos uma investigação para verificar e comprovar a existência de um léxico capaz de revelar as possíveis diferenças de gênero no Brasil. Selecionamos, a seguir, para compor nosso corpus, publicidades impressas voltadas ao sexo masculino ou nas quais ele é o protagonista, extraídas da revista Veja, versão impressa e/ou online, entre os anos de 2006 e de 2011. Essa escolha partiu do pressuposto de que os publicitários responsáveis pela construção dos textos escritos direcionam-nos a um público-alvo cada vez mais específico nas campanhas publicitárias de seus clientes, pois, assim, podem conduzir, com mais acuidade, os potenciais consumidores à decisão de compra. Com essas publicidades, também pudemos constituir os conceitos que fariam parte de nosso produto, os quais denominamos de léxicos-marketing, ou seja, unidades-conceito representativas de um segmento de mercado. Para a composição e análise do repertório lexical da nossa proposta lexicográfica, utilizamos a metodologia veiculada pela Linguística de Corpus, por meio do programa Wordsmith Tools, principalmente, as ferramentas WordList... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo) / Abstract: he main objective of this dissertation is the development of a prototype dictionary for advertising copywriters, consisting of lexicon targeted at males. The production of this work is based on the fact that research in lexicography that relates cultural aspects to the lexicon have demonstrated the importance that lexical units play in the transmission and reception of knowledge about the characteristics of a society. This observation allows considering that the lexical items belonging to a certain language determine the aspects related to beliefs, customs and, specifically in this study, the sexual characteristics of its individuals. Thus, we conducted an investigation to verify and prove the existence of a lexicon capable of revealing the possible gender differences in Brazil. For this, theoretical studies in the areas of Lexicology, Sociology and Sociolinguistics confirmed our propositions. We chose then, for the selection of our corpus, print advertisements targeted at males or in which they are the protagonists, extracted from Veja magazine, print and/or online, between the years of 2006 and 2011. This choice was made based on the hypothesis that advertising writers‟ goal is to appeal with their campaigns to an audience that‟s increasingly more specific and be able to lead, these potential consumers more accurately to a purchase. With these advertisements, we also compose the concepts that would be part of our product that we call Marketing Lexicon, which are lexical units representing a market segment. For the description and analysis of lexicon of our prototype, we use the methodology applied by Corpus Linguistics, through the program Wordsmith Tools. Within this perspective, we employ the WordList‟s tools, with the goal of providing lists of lexical items that would be used in the product and the Concord, to understand the...

The epistemological problem of sincerity in testimony is often approached in the following way: We, as a matter of fact, accept utterances as sincere. We do so in the face of knowledge that people lie and deceive,and yet we still count these beliefs as good beliefs. Therefore there must be some reason or argument that we can cite in order to justify our acceptance of the sincerity of the speaker. In this thesis I will argue, contra this, that there is no reason, per se, that justifies our of a speakers sincerity: this is because recognition of the obligation to accept the sincerity is a necessary condition on the possibility of communication and interpretation. In the first three of the thesis I will argue against three of the main approaches to the problem by focusing on what I believe to be the strongest accounts of each: Elizabeth Fricker's reductionism, Tyler Burge's non-reductionism, and Paul Faulkner's trust account of testimony. In the final chapter I will put forward my positive account. I will argue that it is a constitutive rule of language that a speaker be sincere, and then make the further claim, that it is a constitutive rule of interpretation that the hearer take an utterance as sincere. On my account, successful communication does not just depend on a speaker making sincere utterances,but just as importantly,, on the hearer recognising an obligation to take those utterances as being sincere.

M.Sc. (Occupational Therapy), Faculty of Health Sciences, University of the Witwatersrand, 2009 / A uniform taxonomy within occupational therapy has become a recent focus of discussion and concern in the literature. This study investigated inconsistency in the literature and how South African occupational therapists use and understand terms related to motor performance in children with developmental motor delay. A three stage Delphi Technique was used to gain consensus on the association of characteristics of movement to six motor component terms. The results yielded both quantitative and qualitative data, which revealed that while there was strong consensus among the occupational therapists on some aspects of motor terminology, there is still ambiguity and overlap of understanding. This is reflected in a worrying inconsistency of the description of these terms in the literature and how occupational therapists use the terms in clinical practice. A Framework of Uniform Motor Terminology was developed based on the results of the Delphi Technique.

The purpose of this study was to supplement the Dale word list with a list of terms that are familiar to most members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and thus increase the precision of the Dale-Chall readability formula when it is applied to LDS materials. The Dale word list consists of 3,000 words that are familiar to 80 percent of fourth graders. The procedure involved identifying non-Dale words that occur frequently in LDS church publications and testing them on LDS fourth graders in a three-alternative multiple-choice format.Of the 850 words tested, 249 were identified correctly by 80 percent of the LDS fourth graders tested and could, therefore, constitute a valid addition to the Dale word list when the Dale-Chall formula is used to test materials prepared for a Mormon audience.

Vocabulary instructional tools can be used in the science classroom to increase students' understanding of course terminology. This thesis used a case study approach to explore the Etymological Approach to Learning Biological Terminology [EALBT] used by an instructor to ease access to university-level terms. The results indicate the existence of five unique approaches to the EALBT and that a number of metacognitive elements can also be integrated into this instructional method. The conclusions include that university science courses can require more self-guided learning when compared to high school science. Likewise, metacognition can develop skills in thinking and learning control processes that could lead students to become increasingly apt at accessing course material, including terminology.

Objective: Structured recording of examination findings, such as heart murmurs, is important for effective retrieval and analysis of data. Our study proposes two models for post-coordinating murmur findings and evaluates their ability to record murmurs found in clinical records. Methods: Two models were proposed for post-coordinating murmur findings: the Concept-dependent Attributes model and the Interprets/Has interpretation model. A micro-nomenclature was created based on each model by using the subset and extension mechanisms provided for by the SNOMED-CT® framework. Within each micro-nomenclature a partonomy of cardiac cycle timing values was generated. In order for each model to be capable of representing clinical data, a mechanism for handling range values was developed. One hundred murmurs taken from clinical records were entered into two systems that were built based on each model to enter and display murmur data. Results: Both models were able to record all 100 murmur findings; both required the addition of the same number of concepts into their respective micro-nomenclatures. However, the Interprets/Has interpretation model required twice the storage space for recording murmurs. Conclusion: We found little difference in the requirements for implementation of either model. In fact, data stored using these models could be easily inter-converted. This will allow system developers to choose a model based on their own preferences. If at a later date a method is chosen for modeling within SNOMED-CT, the data can be converted to conform if necessary. / Master of Science
