Si alguna vez se lo derivó al programa YAT, esta conciliación podría afectar sus derechos. SOBRE LA DEMANDA El 1 de julio de 2018, tres jóvenes del condado de Riverside y una organización de tutelaje de jóvenes presentaron esta demanda colectiva, de nombre Sigma Beta Xi, Inc. v. County of Riverside. La demanda cuestiona la constitucionalidad del programa Youth Accountability Team (“YAT”), un programa de recuperación juvenil dirigido por el condado de Riverside (el “Condado”). La demanda levantó una gran cantidad de dudas sobre las duras sanciones impuestas sobre los menores acusados solo de mala conducta escolar menor. La demanda alegaba que el programa YAT había puesto a miles de menores en contratos onerosos de libertad condicional YAT en base al comportamiento común de los adolescentes, incluida la “persistente o habitual negación a obedecer las órdenes o las instrucciones razonables de las autoridades escolares” en virtud de la sección 601(b) del Código de Bienestar e Instituciones de California (California Welfare & Institutions Code).

  • Language Specific Peculiarities Document for Halh Mongolian As Spoken in MONGOLIA
    Language Specific Peculiarities Document for Halh Mongolian as Spoken in MONGOLIA Halh Mongolian, also known as Khalkha (or Xalxa) Mongolian, is a Mongolic language spoken in Mongolia. It has approximately 3 million speakers. 1. Special handling of dialects There are several Mongolic languages or dialects which are mutually intelligible. These include Chakhar and Ordos Mongol, both spoken in the Inner Mongolia region of China. Their status as separate languages is a matter of dispute (Rybatzki 2003). Halh Mongolian is the only Mongolian dialect spoken by the ethnic Mongolian majority in Mongolia. Mongolian speakers from outside Mongolia were not included in this data collection; only Halh Mongolian was collected. 2. Deviation from native-speaker principle No deviation, only native speakers of Halh Mongolian in Mongolia were collected. 3. Special handling of spelling None. 4. Description of character set used for orthographic transcription Mongolian has historically been written in a large variety of scripts. A Latin alphabet was introduced in 1941, but is no longer current (Grenoble, 2003). Today, the classic Mongolian script is still used in Inner Mongolia, but the official standard spelling of Halh Mongolian uses Mongolian Cyrillic. This is also the script used for all educational purposes in Mongolia, and therefore the script which was used for this project. It consists of the standard Cyrillic range (Ux0410-Ux044F, Ux0401, and Ux0451) plus two extra characters, Ux04E8/Ux04E9 and Ux04AE/Ux04AF (see also the table in Section 5.1). 5. Description of Romanization scheme The table in Section 5.1 shows Appen's Mongolian Romanization scheme, which is fully reversible.

  • Reading Russian Documents: the Alphabet
    Reading Russian Documents: The Alphabet Russian “How to” Guide, Beginner Level: Instruction October 2019 GOAL This guide will help you to: • understand a basic history of the Cyrillic alphabet. • recognize and identify Russian letters – both typed and handwritten. • learn the English transcription and pronunciation for letters of the Cyrillic alphabet. INTRODUCTION The Russian language uses the Cyrillic alphabet which has roots in the mid-ninth century. At this time, a new Slavic Empire known as Moravia was forming in the east. In 862, Prince Rastislav of Moravia requested that missionaries from the Byzantine Empire be sent to teach his people. Shortly thereafter, two brothers, known as Constantine and Methodius, arrived from what is now modern-day Macedonia. Realizing that a written alphabet could aid in spreading the gospel message, Constantine created a written alphabet to translate the Gospels and other religious texts. As a result of his work, the Orthodox Church later canonized Constantine as St. Cyril, Apostle to the Slavs. The Russian Empire adopted St. Cyril’s alphabet in 988 and used it for centuries until some changes were made in the seventeenth century. In 1672, Tsar Peter the Great came into power and immediately began carrying out several reforms, including an alphabet reform. Peter wanted the Cyrillic characters to appear less Greek and more westernized. As a result, several Greek letters were eliminated and other letters that looked “too” Greek were replaced with Latin visual equivalents. Additionally, Peter the Great replaced the Cyrillic numbering system for the usage of Arabic numerals. The next major change to the alphabet came in 1918, following the Russian Revolution.
