Falsos cognatos francês-português entre termos de estatutos sociais

In this article we address the search for equivalents in the elaboration of a model dictionary for sworn translators of terms used in bylaws, in the Portuguese-French translation direction. We present, specifically, some cases in which the morphological similarity between the two languages can lead to errors, for example false cognates.

Literatura, cinema e outras arquiteturas textuais: algumas considerações sobre teorias da adaptação

Studies investigating the relationship between literature and film have been largely oriented by an analysis vector which always departs from literary texts towards films. Moreover, the overwhelming majority of criticism done by renowned theorists such as Robert Stam and Brian McFarlane approaches almost exclusively texts considered canonical. This reveals an overemphasis on the notion that the “primordial” text in a study of adaptation should be the literary text. This essay discusses some of those concepts, challenging the “binary” models in adaptation studies and showing how the vectors of analysis can be usefully reversed, for example, starting from films to literature and to other textual architectures. This approach, shared by theorists such as Linda Hutcheon (2006) and Thomas Leitch (2007), rejects old notions that guided comparisons between literary and filmic texts, such as fidelity and equivalence, replacing them with intertextuality and transmedia storytelling.

A noção de equivalência e a sua especificidades na tradução juramentada

We propose in our study a reflection on “functional equivalence” based on a comparative/ terminological bilingual (Portuguese from Brazil/ French from France) approach of specialized texts (certified) due to difficulties that are aggravated by particularities from Switzerland French. A presentation of the equivalence notion in translation theories is necessary to introduce the central issue of this article, namely, to show that “the functional equivalence” seems, in the case of the specialized translation, most appropriate. This happen because legal terms and/or legal gifts in official documents are, in its essence, culturally marked, presenting a direction or different use, even though improper in countries that speak the same language, such as France and Switzerland.

Terminologia e tradução juramentada: questões de tipologia textual e equivalência terminológica interlinguística Português-francês-italiano

In this study we analyse a body of documents in sworn translation from and to Portuguese in relation to French and Italian. Our objective has been to check the textual typology most requested for sworn translation in these languages and to outline a profile of the terminology recurrent in these types of text. We also present examples of interlinguistic terminological equivalence which become apparent when one translates some of the types of text in our corpus. The data presented here was obtained by the LexTraJu-O lexical project of sworn translation, of which the research is developed in the São José do Rio Preto campus of UNESP with the objective of obtaining resources for the improvement of the Translation Courses of this institution and of making a contribution to translation studies on the theme of sworn translation.

C^l-contact and C^l-right equivalences of real semi-quasihomogeneous C^l-function germs

In this paper we investigate the C ` versions of contact and right equivalences of real semi-quasihomogeneous C ` function germs, 1 ≤ ` ≤ ∞. The C ` -right equivalence implies C ` -contact equivalence for any 1 ≤ ` ≤ ∞ and in this work we show, up to certain conditions, that for semi-quasihomogeneous C ` function germs the converse is also true. As a consequence, we recover some known results about C∞-right and C∞-contact equivalences of C∞ function germs. We note that we are considering semi-quasihomogeneous function germs with no additional hypothesis of isolated singularity at zero.

Do hexâmetro ao decassílabo: equivalência estilística baseada na materialidade da expressão

This paper deals with the relationship between the Latin hexametre and the Portuguese decasyllable, mainly paying attention to the possibility of a translation which could save some stylistic equivalence based on the proportionality of the materiality of expression.

Radiopacity and flow of different endodontic sealers

The present study evaluated the radiopacity and flow of different endodontic sealers: AH Plus, Endo CPM, MTA Fillapex, Sealapex, Epiphany, and Epiphany SE. For the radiopacity test, six specimens measuring 10mm in diameter and 1mm in thickness were fabricated from each material. They were radiographed on an occlusal film alongside an aluminum step wedge. Radiographs were digitized to determine the radiopacity equivalence in millimeters of aluminum. To evaluate the flow, a 120 g load was placed on top of a glass slab containing 0.05 } 0.005ml of sealer. The diameters of each material were measured (mm) with a caliper and samples were photographed. Digitized images were analyzed using the UTHSCSA Image Tool for Windows software, to determine the sealer area (mm2). Data were submitted to ANOVA and Tukey's test at 5% significance. AH Plus and Epiphany SE presented the greatest radiopacity (12.5 mm Al and 12.0 mm Al, respectively) (p>0.05), followed by Epiphany (9.6 mm Al) and Fillapex (8.9 mm Al). Endo CPM (5.46 mm Al) and Sealapex (5.51 mm Al) presented lower radiopacity. MTA Fillapex presented significantly higher values of flow than other sealers (33.11 mm and 844.9 mm2). AH Plus, Epiphany, and Epiphany SE had similar values. Endo CPM (21.05 mm and 342.8 mm2) and Sealapex (19.98 mm and 352.5 mm2) presented the lowest flow values (p>0.05). All sealers presented radiopacity and flow values according to ISO and ANSI/ADA recommendations.

Verificação da eficiência do modelo de Mohler na resposta do comportamento de vigas mistas de madeira e concreto

The aim of this research study was to evaluate the structural behaviour of the wood and concrete composite system for bridge decks with emphasis on the metal shear connectors. Experimental tests were performed on composite specimens and wood and concrete beams with a metallic connector system in an X position, using CS100900-type screws. All specimens and beams were submitted to static loads until failure in order to obtain the strength and stiffness of the connection system. The experimental results for the stiffness of the beams were compared with the analytical results obtained through the Mohler model, presenting good equivalence for service loads. The experimental results obtained demonstrate that the most significant damage in composite systems occurred in the connectors' areas.
