The Circumstantial SDM(.F)/SDM. N(.F) as Verbal Verb-Forms in Middle Egyptian

Abstract

The current widely-accepted view of the suffix conjugation is that developed by Polotsky, according to which verb-forms are seen as transpositions of the verb, behaving as the substitutional equivalents of the non-verbal parts of speech (noun, adjective, or adverb). However, it is argued that the circumstantial sdm(.f)/sdm. n(.f) after mk and ist do not submit to a substitutional analysis as adverbial forms. In this construction, the circumstantial sdm(.f)/sdm.n(.f) (with the bare sentence with adverbial predicate and the bare pseudo-verbal construction) belong substitutionally with initial main clause formations, which are unconverted/non-transposed patterns, and contrast with genuinely converted/transposed (true subordinate) clause formations, which cannot occur after mk and ist. This suggests that the circumstantial sdm(.f)/ sdm.n(.f) should be analysed as unconverted/non-transposed forms: i.e. as the Middle Egyptian verbal sdm(.f)/sdm.n(.f). This analysis is shown to account for the well known ‘adverbial’ properties of these forms without invoking adverbial substitution.

Cleanness, castability, and surface quality of formable sheet steels

“…Dawson provided evidence for such behaviour through water modelling and pilot plant trials using tundish nozzles and sliding gates, also showing that misalignment of refractories can exacerbate the problem. Horbach et al 55 support Dawson's proposal, their modelling work showing an increased tendency for clogging in stopper rod and sliding gate systems owing to the presence of recirculation zones and flow separation phenomena. On reaching the refractory surface, the NMIs must adhere.…”

“…(i) internal argon channels minimise reoxidation by preventing atmospheric oxygen from travelling through the refractory to the steel (ii) argon transfer into the steel can lead to improved NMI flotation through attachment to the highly buoyant bubbles 84 (iii) injection at known buildup locations may reduce the recirculation/low pressure zones associated with preferential deposition locations 55 (see 'Deposition of inclusions from the liquid steel', above). This is the most common industrial approach to minimising alumina buildup but efficiency requires careful control of joint sealing, gas purity, and injection rate.…”

Beyond Science: Exploring the Value of Co-created Citizen Science for Diverse Community Groups

“…The complexity of the learning process and how this evolves throughout each of the research phases is evidenced across the value creation cycles and highlights the importance of valuing and evaluating the entire research process (Cornish et al 2023;Greenhalgh et al 2016). In each project, co-researchers were brought on a journey, and findings reveal that participation provided value within each cycle of the value creation framework (VCF).…”

Atrial Fibrillation:

“…One recent large observational trial, the ELAN study, looked at this question. 20 Small stroke was defined as <1.5 cm size stroke. Moderate size stroke was one superficial branch occlusion.…”
