Iniciativa legislativa en Andorra

Hace unos dรญas en el sitio de web que se llama Menรฉame tratรฉ de leer un artรญculo cuyo tema me fascinaba mucho. Hay una iniciativa legislativa popular en Andorra a favor de obligar a los extranjeros a entender el catalรกn. Desafortunadamente, el artรญculo fue escrito en... catalรกn. Puedo entender las ideas principales, pero me escapan los detalles. ยกQuรฉ lรกstima!

Die Atomsemiotik: Teil 1

Derzeit gibt es einen interessanten Post auf Reddit im Linguistik-Forum รผber die Atomsemiotik. Kernkraftwerke von Industrienationen erzeugen radioaktive Stoffe, die langfristig gesichert werden mรผssen.

Es stellt sich die Frage: Wie warnt man die Nachwelt vor den Gefahren dieser Atommรผll-Endlager?

Der Abschnitt enthรคlt Beispiele aus einem Abschlussbericht einer Atomsemiotik-Arbeitsgruppe dafรผr, wie man eine solche Warnung klar und deutlich mitteilen kann.

Shodoshima Island Trip Plan Part 3

This summer, I'll be taking some friends from other countries to Shodoshima Island in the Seto Inland Sea. I want to be able to tell them about the island.

[Sinpaku tree in Hoshoin]
There is one of the 88 sacred places for pilgrimage. Its name is Hoshoin that is No. 54 sacred place. The biggest Sinpaku tree in Japan is located there. Sinpaku is generally used for a miniature potted tree. But the Sinpaku in Hoshoin is 20m in height and the tree roots expand 16m in diameter. The age of this tree is estimated to be around 1600 years old. It was designated as a special natural treasure in 1955 and is famous as a place with spiritual energy. The surface on the tree trunk and branches is so quite lumpy that you may see some parts like a dragon head, beast, human's brain and so on. How they are seen dependes on the person and the angle. You could feel a solemn and mysterious atmosphere from the tree.

[Old town with labyrinth]
In old times, pirates were infested in the Seto Inland Sea. People in the island made a labyrinth in the town to protect their families from pirates. The intricate streets retain the old time's atmosphere.

[Terraced rice fields in Nakayama]
There is a village called Nakayama. It is famous for terraced rice fields. More than 750 fields expand step-like and you could see all the beautiful scenery laid out before your eyes.

Ich werde mein Eintrag Nummer 100 bald schreiben. Ich kann es kaum glauben, fast einhundert Eintrรคge schreiben zu haben. Bisher hat diese Erfahrung viel SpaรŸ gemacht, mal sehen ob den nรคchsten 100 Eintrรคge noch SpaรŸ machen.

Aber ich soll damit aufhรถren, weil ich alle Danksagungen fรผr den 100. Eintrag sparen will.

Weil ich heute viel zu tun habe (gerade schreibe ich sogar auf der Arbeit!), schreibe ich nur diesen kleinen Text. Bis morgen.

Het kleine mesije (Deel 2)

De wolf gesprakt, "Kleine meisje, waar gaat je?"

Het meisje keek naar de wolf en zei, "Sorry, meneer Wolf maar ik mag niet met onbekenden praten."

De wolf zei, "Toch, wat is jouw naam?"

Het meisje zei, "Ik heet Femke."

De wolf zei, "En je kent mijn naam al. We worden vrienden. Nu kun je me vertellen - waar gaat je?"

โ–  For How Long Can EU Be on Top? โ€จ
These advantages are not only limiting but also short-lived. For the European Union to be able to dominate the world of regulations is a fairly recent phenomenon, and its ground is shaking.
EU remains to be the largest market, but its share in the global economy is estimated to decline in the next decade. If the EU market shrinks, fewer and fewer companies would have the reason to follow its regulations. Technological innovations may weaken the EUโ€™s power as well. Producing elaborate goods according to all kinds of regulations costs more as every time a new regulation comes into effect, companies are forced to change its production process. With the possibility of a wide spread of 3D printers, the cost of following both the EU and non-EU regulations would decline. In some areas, a highly strict standard may even backfire.
Some tech-advanced company in a fairly relaxed, non-regulatory country may conduct an experiment utilizing an advanced AI and ends up taking the lead in the industry. And Bradford warns that the phenomenon currently called the โ€œBrussels Effectโ€ may turn into the โ€œBeijing Effectโ€. Such a shift may not be a near-future concern. Each country is being forced to choose between the superpowers they are willing to adhere to. EU has its perks over the unpredictable U.S. and the least democratic China. Historically, however, supremacy is not long-lasting. The strict EU regulations are no exceptions. No matter how strict the regulation is, it is always up to the company whether to follow it or not. Think about the British plug.

โ–  Regulations Without Visible Effect
Another example of the Brussels Effect showed itself in a different type of plug. European Commission is considering enforcing (attempting to force the smartphone manufacturers with a unified smartphone charger standard) a unified standard for smartphone chargers. Apple that uses its unique charging cable connecter is expressing its dissatisfaction (?) with this possible change. Unfortunately for Apple, its displeasure is highly likely to be unsatisfied.
In such a case, Apple will either have to come up with a connector that meets the EU regulations or build a different cable for the entire global market. The latter choice will save more cost and will likely to be widely adopted, unlike the British plug.
EU may have the power to submit a giant such as Apple, but the superpower cannot be entirely totalitarian. In January, when the U.S. administration announced the murder of the Iranian major general, Qasem Soleimani, Ursula Gertrud von der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, gathered all the members to discuss the issue. At the meeting, committee members, who are usually in charge of demographic data and healthcare were asked for their opinion on the situation in the middle-east. Yes, the European Union dominates the world in soft power and in alteration of plug standards, but when it comes to the hard power, the EU is eating soup with a fork. Even in the field where the EU has significant hegemony, the advantages of having strict regulations are unclear. EU has come up with multiple regulations over the Internet usage, however, only the American enterprises and the U.S. government that gets the taxes are the ones that seem to be benefitting from. Facebook and Google, both American enterprises, have the capacity to deal with any regulations of any scale. What about middle-and-small scale European companies? Aside from maintaining a fancy restaurant business around Brussels and providing a healthy lifestyle to the lobbyists, the advantage of these regulations is rather vague.

โ–  EU that Makes the Regulations Stricter
EU, in a traditional sense, could have never been called โ€œa superpowerโ€. However, it successfully held its status as one thanks to the following three factors.
Firstly, the EU market is so enormous it occupies one-fifth of the global GDP. No matter how complicated the regulations can be, manufacturers (producers?) cannot merely ignore the EUโ€™s intentions.
Secondly, the EU is absolutely engrossed in making the regulations as intricate as possible, a drastic difference from the U.S.
From the issue of privacy to the environment, the EU prides itself on having the strictest regulation in the world. For this reason, if a corporation intends to sell the same products across the EU countries, the company doesnโ€™t have to mindlessly spend its funds on altering the goods for each country, but merely needs to follow the EU regulation.
The third factor likely to affect the establishment of global regulations is intertwined with the aforementioned two. Occasionally, a company asks its government to raise the standards of regulations equal to that of the EU. Otherwise, competing companies will prevail over by coming out with the poorly manufactured goods targeted at the domestic market.
Therefore, the EU has become a long-lasting policymaker thanks to the Brussels Effect.
A number of multinational companies are being absorbed by the EU regulations. One country is an exception; the U.K.
The Johnson administration is distancing themselves farther and farther from EU ruling. The U.K. is willing to establish an amicable relationship with other non-EU countries, but the feeling is not often mutual. As the globalization further encourages other countries to be Europeanized, the U.K. has set its determination to take its own path in terms of regulations. Its fate resulting like that of the three-pinned plug.

EU Regulations: Fountain of Income or Totalitarianism?

British electricity plugs are surprisingly innovative. You wonโ€™t get electrocuted even if the third pin with an insulator is not completely plugged into the wall. Unless you plug the ground pin in, even the most adventurous child will not get electrocuted since the plug itself is covered by a lid. It is most likely the safest plug ever invented. Nevertheless, the rest of the world that was never under British governance, have been using a two-pinned plug that has a higher risk of electrocution and is much more susceptible to a breakout.

Successful sales of plug adaptors show even the simplest and the most innovative standard is not enough for something to be adopted worldwide. What Britain failed to understand was the subtle combination of the impact of regulations and the power to influence the market.
On the other hand, the European Union has been a quick and steady learner of these tactics. Nowadays, everything from wood manufacturing in Indonesia to Internet privacy in Central America is discussed in Brussels, Belgium, where the EU headquarters are located. All the bureaucrats, diplomats, members of the EU parliament, and lobbyists actively take part in the talks. Anu Bradford of the Columbia University Law School calls this phenomenon โ€œBrussels Effectโ€. In her new book, she explains how the European Union has become โ€œa superpower of regulationsโ€.

Ze had een tante dat en bos had leefde.

Op een dag, besloot ze naar het huis van haar tante te gaan.

Ze had wat eten voor haar tante gemakt en vertrokken.

Toen ze had door de bos geloopd, ze onmoette een wolf.

Orkan Sabine

Heute bin ich nicht zur Arbeit gegangen, weil es eine Unwetterwarnung von schweren Gewitter in Bayern gibt, wegen des Sturms Sabine. Meine Frau konnte auch nicht zu ihrer Arbeit gehen, da sie in einer Schule arbeitet und heute die Schulunterrichte ausgefallen haben.

Ich hoffe, dass morgen das Wetter besser wird, aber trotzdem wird ich vorsichtig sein.

Sentence

Today, I encountered a complicated sentence: "When you don't know the biology of a species, to unjustifiably claim it suffers abuse, is stressed or depressed, is to make one of man's most common mistakes, which is to humanize animal behavior." When I read this sentence for the first time, I was not able to understand what this meant. After wondering for a while, I noticed that it in the sentence was referring to a species and I fully understand this sentence.

Thank you for reading!
