Phonological and Sociolinguistic Challenges of Translating Yorùbá Play, and Game Songs to Singable English for Children by Bolanle O. Sogunro

“…Consequently, the translations are “unperformable” as oral texts, thus, failing their aesthetic and functional purpose for children. To investigate the translation problems involved and proffer solutions, this essay analyses five randomly selected Yoruba songs and seven of their available English translations from online sources and an unpublished manuscript, using sociolinguistic translation theory and the analytical framework of Franzon’s song translation choices. …”

A Panpsychist Interpretation of Evolutionary Theory by Ferhat Onur

“… If there is a questionable element in the theory of evolution, it is likely the randomness of mutations, which is seen as the primary source of evolutionary change. The idea that errors in DNA sequences are the source of species change does not seem acceptable to many scientists and philosophers. …”

GENERATION AND COLLECTION OF TOBACCO AEROSOL FOR SHISHA by N. N. Bubnova, M. V. Shkidyuk

“…Qualitative characteristics of tobacco aerosol for shisha are determined by the functional purpose and depend on the component composition of the tobacco mixture and the coal used.The purpose of the research is to develop a methodology for the comprehensive assessment of tobacco for shisha based on modern methods of product quality control and includes the following steps:- monitoring of the studies to determine the component composition of the hookah mixture and the aerosol produced;- analysis of hookah mixture testing modes and development of an aerosol generation protocol;- development of a method for collecting aerosol on a laboratory smoking machine; - quantitative analysis of toxic analytes by HPLC MS / MS method.Methods have been developed for the machine generation and collection of tobacco aerosol for hookah, taking into account low concentrations of the analyzed toxic substances.The expediency of using the HPLC MS / MS method to determine the quantity of the following substances in tobacco aerosol for shisha has been substantiated:- carbonyl compounds (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein) by detection on an electrospray source in the negative polarity mode- tobacco specific nitrosoamines (NNN and NNK) by detection on an electrospray source in the positive polarity mode.During the research laboratory and analytical equipment was used: a five-channel linear CERULEAN SM 405 smoking machine; Thermo Scientific Dionex UltiMate 3000 liquid chromatograph and TSQ Quantiva mass spectrometer.Obtaining experimental data on the quantitative determination of the component composition of the aerosol produced by tobacco for shisha using hookah systems is relevant for assessing toxic characteristics of the product.…”
