Aproximación al clítico 的 de en chino

Debido a las características intrínsecas de la lengua china, los clíticos juegan un papel imprescindible en la estructura sintáctica del idioma. Sin ellos, las oraciones no llegan a construirse, ya que son estos, entre otros recursos, los que cargan las informaciones gramaticales; es más, cada clítico en chino ocupa un hueco en la gramática, por lo que es difícil remplazarlos sin cambiar el sentido de la oración. De todos los clíticos, la palabra «的» es la que se presenta con mayor frecuencia. Esta palabra, como muchas otras “palabras vacías”, desempeña diversas funciones gramaticales, por lo que constituye un punto de investigación muy interesante en la gramática china. Desde los años 20 del siglo pasado, generaciones de eruditos se han dedicado a su estudio, entre otros, figuran Li Jinxi（黎锦熙), Gao Mingkai（高名凯),Chen Qiongzan（陈琼瓒), Fan Jiyan（范继淹）y Zhu Dexi（朱德熙). Un artículo de este último Sobre “的 (De)” ha provocado una amplia reacción y una profunda influencia en las investigaciones posteriores. A pesar de todo y hasta hoy en día, el uso de esta palabra sigue siendo un escollo tanto para los profesores de chino como para sus alumnos. Las ambigüedades que puede causar y la diferencia semántica y pragmática de su uso y desuso han sido un rompecabezas no sólo para los extranjeros, sino también para los nativos. En este artículo, intentaremos delimitar sus usos y analizar sus valores semánticos y pragmáticos.

New wild Brassica oleracea L. germplasm at its western distribution limit in the Iberian Peninsula

An exploration and collection mission for wild Brassica oleracea populations was carried out in spring and summer of 2013. The aim of this collection was to expand the number of accessions of wild Brassica oleracea available for basic and applied research in plant breeding. In this paper we report a new accession of wild Brassica oleracea in an unexplored coastal area of Galicia, NW Iberian Peninsula. Details of population ecology and vegetation, soil, climate and geographic data were recorded for this population. The “Endangered” threat category for the region is proposed, and actions for in situ and ex situ conservation are proposed. Seeds will be added to the germplasm collections of University of Santiago de Compostela and Misión Biológica de Galicia (CSIC) for further research on diverse aspects of the dynamics and ecophysiology of the population along with characterization and evaluation of useful traits.

Analysis of the footprint in school age of 8-10 years old

Biomechanical problems in children, is an important subject currently, existing controversy in different areas, for example, the majority of children have a flattened footprint, or the hypermobility joint is linked to a musculoskeletal pain. The objective of the study was to determine what kind of footprint is most frequent in school-age children (8-10 years) in the area of Plasencia. This was taken as a sign 50 children, of whom 28 were males and 22 females. All the subjects in the study underwent an assessment of footprint planted in static as well as an exploration of different parameters through inspection in a standing position (formula digital, rearfoot). The results show that excavated footprint is present in a 72% cases of the population, 16% was belonging to an excavated footprint in which we find a higher percentage of weight related.For the digital formula we find that the most common is the Egyptian foot by 40% of the cases and that the prevalence in the rearfoot, is a normal hindfoot. In relation with the hypermobility joint, we check that it is more common in girls and that none of them presents an association to musculoskeletal pain. As a future line we could establish a more comprehensive study with new techniques and valuingchild’s statics and dynamics, to have a more accurate study of the different variables in the sample population studied.
