Playing With Language in the Manual Modality: Which Motions Do Signers Gradiently Modify? [PDF]
Cogn SciAbstract Language is traditionally characterized as an arbitrary, symbolic system, made up of discrete, categorical forms. But iconicity and gradience are pervasive in communication.

Chemically Gradient Hydrogen‐Bonded Organic Framework Crystal Film
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 135, Issue 29, July 17, 2023., 2023 We introduce a novel chemical gradient strategy to fabricate a crystal‐deposited HOF on an in situ grown polymer film. The fabricated film showed versatility in chemical bonding along its thickness from covalent to hydrogen‐bonded network and showed improved proton conductivity compared to its polymeric analog.

Grammaticalization from Minimizer to Focus Marker as Upward Reanalysis along the Nominal Spine*
Studia Linguistica, Volume 77, Issue 2, Page 258-306, August 2023., 2023 Abstract This article demonstrates that Japanese minimizers, which are originally used as Negative Polarity Items in a negative context, can sometimes behave as focus markers when used postnominally. I will review a previous syntactic analysis of English minimizers, and propose a revised syntactic analysis of Japanese minimizers, based on newly ...
