What's in a compound? Review article on Lieber and Å tekauer (eds) 2009. 'The Oxford Handbook of Compounding'
Get PDFThe Oxford Handbook of Compounding surveys a variety of theoretical and descriptive issues, presenting overviews of compounding in a number of frameworks and sketches of compounding in a number of languages. Much of the book deals with Germanic nounānoun compounding. I take up some of the theoretical questions raised surrounding such constructions, in particular, the notion of attributive modification in noun-headed compounds. I focus on two issues. The first is the semantic relation between the head noun and its nominal modifier. Several authors repeat the argument that there is a small(-ish) fixed number of general semantic relations in nounānoun compounds (āLees's solutionā), but I argue that the correct way to look at such compounds is what I call āDowning's solutionā, in which we assume that the relation is specified pragmatically, and hence could be any relation at all. The second issue is the way that adjectives modify nouns inside compounds. Although there are languages in which compounded adjectives modify just as they do in phrases (Chukchee, Arleplog Swedish), in general the adjective has a classifier role and not that of a compositional attributive modifier. Thus, even if an English (or German) adjectiveānoun compound looks compositional, it isn't

It contains 20 pictures, 2 tables and 34 references to literature sources. The purpose of thesis was to characterise light refraction of soft monthly contact lenses when contact lenses are new and at the end of their lifespan. 20 participants took part in the study. The difference of the amount of stray light was determined in new and old contact lens. Additionally, the differences between materials Lotrafilcon B and Comfilcon A. The obtained results were significantly different in new and old contact lenses, but the differences in material properties and the power of contact lenses were determined not to be a consequential factor in the amount of stray light

It contains 9 pictures, 3 tables and 51 references to literature sources. The purpose of the thesis was to characterize the light perception of achromatic impulses on different planes of volumetric screen. 15 participants took part in the experiment, their ages ranged from 20 to 25 years old. Visual stimuli were presented on two displays ā the volumetric display and the liquid crystal display. During the psychophysical test, the minimal difference between brightness of visual stimuli, which participants recognized as equally bright on both displays, was determined. The obtained results showed that the threshold differed significantly among individuals. However, the average threshold of brightness perception did not differ when the equal luminance visual stimuli were demonstrated on different planes of volumetric display
