Animal-Based Metaphors as Being a Lingua-Cultural Way in the Field of Football Club Titles: Зооморфная метафора как лингвокультурологический способ в области прозвищ футбольных клубов
...Show More Authors

 

       Metaphor is a linguistic phenomenon related to people's cultures. It is an integral part of cultural heritage. This paper tackles the use of animal-based metaphors in the field of football club titles so as to draw comparisons between those in Russian with their counterparts in Arabic. Names of animals are used to refer to some clubs and teams, where these names or titles reflect animal features such as strength, preying on victims; or animal figures are employed in the club symbols, or due to the similarity of the club shirt to the animal outer shapes in colours. For instance, "an-Nawaris", which means gulls in English, is used to refer to az-Zawraa club due to the identity in colours of both the outer colours of the birds and the club shirt, and to the way players celebrate their scoring goals. "Suqoor" also, which means hawks in English, refers to the Air Force club; it agrees with the symbol of club, since a hawk is sharp-sighted and is able prey on victims instantly. As for "thiaabul-sahree", which means in English desert wolves, is related to ar-Ramadi Club, and symbolizes the players to having the ability to prey on the other teams at home-playground, and to over well-established teams. As for "Usoodul-hAasimah", which means lions of the capital-city, it is associated with Baghdad Club. The team thereof has the characteristics of lions in respect to strength and bravery, along with well-done goal defense. Titles employing animal names are often used in Arab, African and European Countries, as well as in the media. They add to the beauty and understanding of the texts.

Аннотация

     Метафора является одним из важнейших языковых феноменов, тесно связанных с культурой народов и ставших неотъемлемой частью наследия цивилизации. Данная статья посвящена употреблению Зооморфных метафор в системе прозвищ футбольных клубов, их употребление в  обеих языках и сравнение этих прозвищ между русским и арабским языками. Сборные и футбольные команды называются в честь определенных животных, символизирующих силу, хищность или символизируют герб клуба и сходство цвета формы команды с внешностью животного, например, Чайки – это прозвище принадлежит к футбольному клубу «Аль-Завраа». Это название взялось в совпадении цвета игровой футболки команды и полёт этих птиц похож на празднование футболистов этого клуба после забитого гола. Соколы – это прозвище футбольного клуба «Аль-Куа Аль- Джавия», принадлежащий к военно-воздушной авиации. Название означает острое зрение сокола и быстро нападает на животных. Волки пустыни – Это прозвище футбольного клуба «эр-Рамади». Это название символизирует о том, что футболисты этого клуба хищные и они играют дома сильно и выиграют всех футбольных клубов также ведущих Ирака. Львы столицы – это прозвище принадлежит к футбольному клубу «Багдад ». Это команда носит название столицы Ирака – Багдад. Команда имеет характера льва и отличается это команда силой и храбрости и крепкой защитой.

Зооморфные прозвища используются больше всего в арабских странах, и в Африке и в Европе и как метафора в СМИ. Зооморфные прозвища украсят речь и тексты и сделают образ более понятным.

Subsurface Flow Phytoremediation Using Barley Plants for Water Recovery from Kerosene-Contaminated Water: Effect of Kerosene Concentration and Removal Kinetics
...Show More Authors

A phytoremediation experiment was carried out with kerosene as a model for total petroleum hydrocarbons. A constructed wetland of barley was exposed to kerosene pollutants at varying concentrations (1, 2, and 3% v/v) in a subsurface flow (SSF) system. After a period of 42 days of exposure, it was found that the average ability to eliminate kerosene ranged from 56.5% to 61.2%, with the highest removal obtained at a kerosene concentration of 1% v/v. The analysis of kerosene at varying initial concentrations allowed the kinetics of kerosene to be fitted with the Grau model, which was closer than that with the zero order, first order, or second order kinetic models. The experimental study showed that the barley plant designed in a subsu

Experimental determination of hydrate phase equilibrium for different gas mixtures containing methane, carbon dioxide and nitrogen with motor current measurements
...Show More Authors

Hydrate dissociation equilibrium conditions for carbon dioxide + methane with water, nitrogen + methane with water and carbon dioxide + nitrogen with water were measured using cryogenic sapphire cell. Measurements were performed in the temperature range of 275.75 K–293.95 K and for pressures ranging from 5 MPa to 25 MPa. The resulting data indicate that as the carbon dioxide concentration is increased in the gas mixture, the gas hydrate equilibrium temperature increases. In contrast, by increasing the nitrogen concentration in the gas mixtures containing methane or carbon dioxide decreased the gas hydrate equilibrium temperatures. Furthermore, the cage occupancies for the carbon dioxide + methane system were evaluated using the Van der Wa

Asphalt Binder Modification with High-Density Polyethylene Polymer and Low-Density Polyethylene Polymer – Efficiency of Conducting Semi-Wet Mixing Process
...Show More Authors

In this research, the performance of asphalt mixtures modified with polyethylene polymer (PE) by adding 2%, 4%, and 6% percentages was evaluated. Two kinds of PE are employed: Low-Density PE (LDPE) and High-Density PE (HDPE). The semi-wet mixing technique (SWM) was conducted to avoid stability issue for PE-modified binder during storage condition. Many experimental tests were conducted to evaluate the ability of these mixtures to withstand the effects of loads and moisture. The hardness index of these mixtures was also measured to determine their resistance to the effects of high temperatures without causing permanent deformations. The results showed that adding PE led to a remarkable enhancement in the performance of PE-modified mixtures.

Antimicrobial Effect of Eco- Friendly Silver Nanoparticles Synthesis by Iraqi Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera) on Gram-Negative Biofilm-Forming Bacteria
...Show More Authors

Date palm silver nanoparticles are a green synthesis method used as antibacterial agents. Today,
there is a considerable interest in it because it is safe, nontoxic, low costly and ecofriendly. Biofilm bacteria
existing in marketed local milk is at highly risk on population health and may be life-threatening as most
biofilm-forming bacteria are multidrug resistance. The goal of current study is to eradicate biofilm-forming
bacteria by alternative treatment green synthesis silver nanoparticles. The biofilm formation by bacterial
isolates was detected by Congo red method. The silver nanoparticles were prepared from date palm
(khestawy) fruit extract. The formed nanoparticles were characterized with UV-Vis
