  • End-Of-Line Hyphenation of Chemical Names (IUPAC Provisional
    Pure Appl. Chem. 2020; aop IUPAC Recommendations Albert J. Dijkstra*, Karl-Heinz Hellwich, Richard M. Hartshorn, Jan Reedijk and Erik Szabó End-of-line hyphenation of chemical names (IUPAC Provisional Recommendations) https://doi.org/10.1515/pac-2019-1005 Received October 16, 2019; accepted January 21, 2020 Abstract: Chemical names and in particular systematic chemical names can be so long that, when a manu- script is printed, they have to be hyphenated/divided at the end of a line. Many systematic names already contain hyphens, but sometimes not in a suitable division position. In some cases, using these hyphens as end-of-line divisions can lead to illogical divisions in print, as can also happen when hyphens are added arbi- trarily without considering the ‘chemical’ context. The present document provides recommendations and guidelines for authors of chemical manuscripts, their publishers and editors, on where to divide chemical names at the end of a line and instructions on how to avoid these names being divided at illogical places as often suggested by desk dictionaries. Instead, readability and chemical sense should prevail when authors insert optional hyphens. Accordingly, the software used to convert electronic manuscripts to print can now be programmed to avoid illogical end-of-line hyphenation and thereby save the author much time and annoy- ance when proofreading. The recommendations also allow readers of the printed article to determine which end-of-line hyphens are an integral part of the name and should not be deleted when ‘undividing’ the name. These recommendations may also prove useful in languages other than English.

  • On Compounds, Noun Phrases and Domains Gisli R
    University of Connecticut OpenCommons@UConn Doctoral Dissertations University of Connecticut Graduate School 6-13-2017 Cycling Through Grammar: On Compounds, Noun Phrases and Domains Gisli R. Hardarson University of Connecticut, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations Recommended Citation Hardarson, Gisli R., "Cycling Through Grammar: On Compounds, Noun Phrases and Domains" (2017). Doctoral Dissertations. 1570. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/1570 Cycling Through Grammar: On Compounds, Noun Phrases and Domains Gísli Rúnar Harðarson, PhD University of Connecticut, 2017 In this dissertation, I address the question of domains within grammar: i.e. how domains are defined, whether different components of grammar make references to the same boundaries (or at least boundary definers), and whether these boundaries are uniform with respect to different processes. I address these questions in two case studies. First, I explore compound nouns in Icelandic and restrictions on their composition, where inflected non-head elements are structurally peripheral to uninflected ones. I argue that these effects are due to a matching condition which requires elements within compounds to match their attachment site in terms of size/type. Following that I explore how morphophonology is regulated by the structure of the compound. I argue for a contextual definition of the domain of morphophonology, where the highest functional morpheme in the extended projection of the root marks the boundary. Under this approach a morphophonological domain can contain smaller domains analogous to phases in syntax. This allows for the morphosyntactic structure to be mapped directly to phonology while giving the impression of two contradicting structures.

  • Use the Symbol Library Method #2: Use the Superscript
    CHEAT SHEET: 3 WAYS TO GET A DEGREE SYMBOL To get a degree symbol in Excel there are 3 methods you can use. Each example below creates 180o. Method #1: Use the symbol library 1. In a cell, type ‘180’ (without the quotes). 2. Then go to Insert tab and click the Symbol icon (far right). This shows you all the characters in every font on your computer. 3. In the top dropdown box, select the Symbol font. 4. Scroll down and select the degree symbol. 5. Click Insert. NB. You can expand the dialog by hovering over the dialog frame and with the double-headed arrow click-and-drag to the size you require. Method #2: Use the Superscript tool 1. In a cell, type ‘180’ (without the quotes). 2. Type a lower case ‘o’. 3. Using the mouse (or press Shift plus left or right arrow on the keyboard) highlight just the ‘o’. 4. Right click and choose Format Cells to display the ‘Format Cells’ dialog (or press Ctrl 1). Only the Font tab is displayed because you are still editing the cell contents. 5. Tick the Superscript box. 6. Click OK. The superscript can be used for other things. For example, if you’re laying some concrete or turf and you want to record the area to be covered, let’s say it’s 20 square meters, you can display it as 20m2. 1. Type 20m2. 2. Highlight just the 2 at the end. 3. Right click and choose ‘Format Cells’. 4. Tick the Superscript box (in the Font tab) 5.

  • Australian & New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists HEAD
    Australian & New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists HEAD SUBJECT EXAMINER STYLE GUIDES AND STYLE SHEETS FOR EXAMINATIONS 2012 STYLE GUIDE This set of style instructions is written for examiners who are preparing exams for the Australian College of Veterinary Scientists (ACVSc). The instructions complement the Purple Book (advice to examiners) and should also be used in conjunction with the ACVSc style sheet. 1.1 Terminology When writing exam questions, bear in mind the specific definitions of the terms listed below: Compare: to find similarities between things, or to look for characteristics and features that resemble each other. Note: when compare is used in this sense, it should be followed by ‘to’ (ie compare X to Y); ‘compared with’ means to find differences. For the exams, it would be best to use ‘compare to’ for finding similarities and ‘contrast’ for finding differences (see below). Contrast: to find differences or to distinguish between things. Discuss: to present a detailed argument or account of the subject matter, including all the main points, essential details, and pros and cons of the problem, to show your complete understanding of the subject. Define: to provide a concise explanation of the meaning of a word or phrase; or to describe the essential qualities of something. Explain: to clarify, interpret, give reasons for differences of opinions or results, or analyse causes. Illustrate: to use a picture, diagram or example to clarify a point. 1.2 Capitals Use initial capitals for full proper names but at other times, use minimal capitalisation in text, headings, figures and tables. The Australian Government Style Manual (sixth edition)1 recommends using capitals in shortened forms of organisation names, only when the main descriptive element is retained (eg College of Veterinary Scientists) but not if only the generic component is used (eg the college).
