Elsewhere I have argued that the Indo-European verbal system can be understood in terms of its Indo-Uralic origins because the reconstructed Indo-European endings can be derived from combinations of Indo-Uralic morphemes by a series of well-motivated ...

Are Potency and Actuality Compatible in Aristotle? [PDF]
The belief that Aristotle opposes potency (dunamis) to actuality (energeia or entelecheia) has gone untested. This essay defines and distinguishes forms of the Opposition Hypothesis—the Actualization, Privation, and Modal—examining the texts and ...

Sustainable hydrogen production can be obtained from hydogen‐rich biomass‐derived organic molecules through Acceptorless Dehydrogenation (AD) reactions. Glycerol and sugars are available in large quantities from industry and can be successfully used as substrates in AD protocols, in the presence of tailored, selective, easily tunable and thermally ...

Designing Tailored Molecular Cavities Using Calix[5]arenes as Building Blocks
This account focuses on the shape and dimensions of cavities formed by precisely designed molecular frameworks. It highlights our efforts to construct synthetically tailored cavities based on calix[5]arenes. This study examines the shapes and dimensions of cavities defined by well‐designed molecular structures.

On the position of dative DPs in Spanish middle-passive sentences
This paper examines external possession between a dative possessor and a relational noun in Spanish middle-passive configurations. The dative DP in these contexts must surface preverbally in out-of-the-blue contexts, either by itself –presumably in ...

Instrumental prepositions and case: Contexts of occurrence and alternations with datives
We will argue that instrumentals are the mirror image of dative/genitive obliques. We propose that both sets of adpositions/cases are elementary predicates, expressing a zonal inclusion (part-whole/possession relation); instrumentals reverse the ...

The Development of Indo‐Iranian Voiced Fricatives
Abstract The development of voiced sibilants is a long‐standing puzzle in Indo‐Iranian historical phonology. In Vedic, all voiced sibilants are lost from the system, but the details of this loss are complex and subject to debate. The most intriguing development concerns the word‐final ‐aḥ to ‐o in sandhi.

Remnant Case Forms and Patterns of Syncretism in Early West Germanic
Abstract Early stages of the Old West Germanic languages differ from the other two branches, Gothic and Norse, by showing remnants of a fifth case in a‐ and ō‐stem nouns. The forms in question, which have the ending ‐i or ‐u, are conventionally labelled ‘instrumental’ and cover a range of functions, such as instrument, means, comitative and locative ...

Bis(silylene)‐Mediated N═N Bond Scission of Diazo Compounds
The carborane‐based bis(silylene) enables unprecedented N═N bond scission in diazodiarylmethanes. While xanthene‐ and aniline‐based scaffolds promote end‐on addition with partial N═N activation, the carborane‐based variant uniquely achieves complete N═N bond scission of Ar2C═N═N compounds, resulting in isolable disilicon nitride imino species.
