Den selektive specialordbog

Den selektive spedalordbog er en oversættelsesordbog, der fokuserer på underområder inden for fagsproglige enkeltfag. I kraft af det selektive tilsnit, kan ordbogen både være slank og alligevel samtidig satse på høj kvalitet. Makro- og mikrostruktur kan således med fordel indrettes specifikt for hver enkelt ordbog. For at kunne arbejde med fremstilling af sådanne ordbøger som undervisningsdiciplin, er det nØdvendigt at have meget klare kriterier for det selektive emnes afgrænsning. Disse problemer diskuteres i lyset af to selektive ordbøger, hver med sin specifikke struktur

Genveje i den elektroniske bilingvale ordbog illustreret ved hjælp af man -> you, one, we, they og syntaktiske løsninger

Short cuts in an electronic bilingual dictionary illustrated by man ÷ you, one, we, they andsyntactic solutions. Generally speaking, advanced language students in Denmark fail to tacklethe non-existence of a full equivalent of the Danish indefinite pronoun man competently whenexpressing themselves in English – they heavily overuse the partial equivalent you. German andFrench have similar pronouns: man and on, but their dictionaries, just like Danish-producedEnglish grammars, make a better point of warning and of offering solutions than do most Danish-English active dictionaries. On the basis of the combined material from dictionaries andgrammars, this paper provides a suggestion for a flow chart for the Danish lemma man, intendedfor an electronic, dynamic, active Danish-English dictionary with links to external sources suchas corpora and word lists

False friends som pop-up-funktion

SammendragHer præsenteres den ide at elektroniske ordbøger vil kunne afhjælpe den leksikalske faldgrube der hedder falske venner, dvs. fremmedsprogsord der ligner ord i ens eget sprog, men betyder noget andet på det fremmede sprog, og som derfor er lumske og kan få pinlige og måske endda katastrofale følger. Falske venner bør kunne indfanges med en elektronisk tjekker på samme måde som stavefejl kan indfanges. Dette indlæg er ikke et gennemført projekt til en tjekker, men et pilotstudie

Global patient outcomes after elective surgery: prospective cohort study in 27 low-, middle- and high-income countries.

BACKGROUND: As global initiatives increase patient access to surgical treatments, there remains a need to understand the adverse effects of surgery and define appropriate levels of perioperative care. METHODS: We designed a prospective international 7-day cohort study of outcomes following elective adult inpatient surgery in 27 countries. The primary outcome was in-hospital complications. Secondary outcomes were death following a complication (failure to rescue) and death in hospital. Process measures were admission to critical care immediately after surgery or to treat a complication and duration of hospital stay. A single definition of critical care was used for all countries. RESULTS: A total of 474 hospitals in 19 high-, 7 middle- and 1 low-income country were included in the primary analysis. Data included 44 814 patients with a median hospital stay of 4 (range 2-7) days. A total of 7508 patients (16.8%) developed one or more postoperative complication and 207 died (0.5%). The overall mortality among patients who developed complications was 2.8%. Mortality following complications ranged from 2.4% for pulmonary embolism to 43.9% for cardiac arrest. A total of 4360 (9.7%) patients were admitted to a critical care unit as routine immediately after surgery, of whom 2198 (50.4%) developed a complication, with 105 (2.4%) deaths. A total of 1233 patients (16.4%) were admitted to a critical care unit to treat complications, with 119 (9.7%) deaths. Despite lower baseline risk, outcomes were similar in low- and middle-income compared with high-income countries. CONCLUSIONS: Poor patient outcomes are common after inpatient surgery. Global initiatives to increase access to surgical treatments should also address the need for safe perioperative care. STUDY REGISTRATION: ISRCTN5181700

Leksikalsk materiale fra sekundære kilder og ophavsret

This subject is important in the light of the growing number of machine-readable dictionaries because they are secondary sources that are easy to copy from for inclusion in new dictionaries (Svensén 1993:62). This paper will take its starting point in the question of how much lexical material can be drawn from secondary sources such as other dictionaries for the inclusion in a new dictionary without risking to infringe upon the copyrights of others; but in particular it will focus on how we can represent what and how much we want to draw, or how much we think might have been drawn from another secondary source for the use in a new dictionary? Two Danish English LSP dictionaries have been used for the illustration of practical attempts at such comparison

Sustainable ferry traffic : A comparative analysis between battery and hydrogen propulsion in Gotlandsbolaget's ferries

I samband med klimatmålet att Sverige ska ha ett netto-noll utsläpp av växthusgaser till 2045 krävs det att alla sektorer minskar sina växthusgasutsläpp och av sektorerna utgör sjöfarten inrikes en mindre men fortfarande betydande del. Två omtalade förnyelsebara driftstyper är batteri- och vätgasdrift, som har potential att ersätta fossila bränslen. Med hänsyn till detta syftar rapporten till att jämföra dessa två driftsformer, utifrån ett hållbarhetsperspektiv, i Gotlandsbolagets färjor. Jämförelseanalysen grundar sig i en kvantitativ litteraturstudie samt i form av en intervju och mejlkonversationer. I resultatet har aspekter som energibehov, vikt, utrymme, hastighet, infrastruktur och koldioxidutsläpp undersökts. Gällande diskussionsdelen avhandlas bland annat behovet av en energimässig marginal, betydelsen av fossilfri el för respektive driftsform, dimensionering av en ny elkabel till Gotland samt områden som bör utredas vidare. Av rapporten kan det bland annat konstateras att vätgasdrift ger upphov till lägre växthusgasutsläpp vid en svensk elmix medan den vid nordisk elmix ger upphov till mer utsläpp jämfört med batteridrift. En konvertering av färjan M/S Drotten är troligen möjlig att genomföra utifrån de valda aspekterna. In correlation with the climate goal that Sweden should have a net-zero emission of greenhouse gasses by 2045, it is required that all sectors reduce their greenhouse gas emissions. Of all the sectors, domestic shipping is a small but still significant part. Two well-known renewable operating propulsions are battery and hydrogen, which have the potential to substitute fossil fuels. With this in mind, the report aims to compare these two propulsions from a sustainability perspective in Gotlandsbolaget’s ferries. The comparison analysis is based on a quantitative literature study, an interview and email conversations. In the result, aspects such as energy demand, weight, space, speed, infrastructure and carbon dioxide emissions have been investigated. Moreover, in the discussion part, aspects such as an energy margin, the importance of fossil-free electricity for both propulsions, designing of a new power cable to Gotland, and areas that should be investigated further have been touched upon. From the report, it can be stated, among other things, that hydrogen propulsion results in lower greenhouse gas emissions when a Swedish electricity mix is used. However, when a Nordic electricity mix is used, which has higher emissions than the Swedish, hydrogen propulsion results in higher greenhouse gas emissions compared to battery propulsion. Lastly, a conversion of the ferry M/S Drotten is probably possible based on the selected aspects.
