This paper addresses the issue of coalescence of frequent collocations and its consequences for their realization and mental representation. The items examined are ‘semi-modal’ instantiations of the type V-to-Vinf, namely have to, used to, trying to and need to, in American English. We explore and compare their realization variants in speech, considering the effects of speech-internal and extra-liThis paper addresses the issue of coalescence of frequent collocations and its consequences for their realization and mental representation.

This dissertation argues that the incongruity between the narrating I and the narrated I in The Shadow of the Torturer produces a site where myth is made. The novel differs from other works in the canon of science fantasy because its science and fantasy are rarely, if ever, juxtaposed. Instead, I argue that whatever technological understandings the narrator obtains throughout their journey are rep

I den svenska förvaltningsprocessrätten finns ingen lagstadgad specifik för tredje part att inträda i processen vid sidan av den ordinarie parten eller istället för denna. Möjligheten för den tredje parten att träda in processen uppkommer genom praxis från HFD. Möjligheten för tredje part att träda in i processen är viktig eftersom det i vissa fall kan vara den enda möjligheten att klaga på ett beIn the Swedish administrative process law, there exists no statutory right for a third party to enter the process beside the original party or instead of the original party. This opportunity is solely developed in the administrative courts through case law. The right for a third party to enter the process is important because in some cases it might be the only way for a party to lodge a complaint

Sweden has a long history of mining and to this day minerals are an essential export. There are possibilities and intentions to extract more of the metals and minerals crucial to an increase in green technology. However, production is environmentally destructive both locally and globally. This causes a shift of environmental burden from use to production, causing a conflict within sustainable deve
This study questions how the European green transition impacts the EU’s relations to China, from a geoeconomics perspective. The basis of the study lies in the global political climate caused by the rules-based international order being challenged by China (and Russia), opposing the EU. Simultaneously, the EU sources a large percentage of the materials needed for the green transition from China. T
The Trigger-Level Analysis is a strategy for data analysis that enables recording larger amounts of events at the ATLAS experiment than the typical method of reconstructing events offline. This is done by only recording partial information about the event, and using that for analysis. As more events are analysed with this method it can be used to put lower energy constraints on the events that are
Air pollution caused by highly concentrated particulate matter is recognized as the biggest problem in Korean society. Since the problem is directly related to human life and local people's livelihoods, the demand for fundamental policies rather than short-term measures is growing. In this context, the strong policies of Seoul metropolitan government including emergency reduction measures whic
