Linguist


Definition:

  • (n.) A master of the use of language; a talker.
  • (n.) A person skilled in languages.

  • (17) This diversity approximated that found when linguistically unrelated groups were compared.
  • (18) These results differ from those obtained previously with noncorresponding pairs of linguistic-nonlinguistic dimensions.
  • (19) "This research is not only an extremely complex and interesting study of songbirds, it also gives us a unique insight into how brain development may contribute to human linguistic capabilities," said Prof Tamas Szekely of the Biodiversity Lab at the University of Bath's department of biology and biochemistry.
  • (20) Strong relationships appear between linguistic and fine motor skills in an age group not previously investigated and at higher levels than reported in studies of infants and very young children.

Translator


Definition:

  • (n.) One who translates; esp., one who renders into another language; one who expresses the sense of words in one language by equivalent words in another.
  • (n.) A repeating instrument.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) These lysates are comparable to those of Escherichia coli in transcriptional and translational fidelity and efficiency in response to a given template DNA.
  • (2) Enhanced sensitivity to ITDs should translate to better-defined azimuthal receptive fields, and therefore may be a step toward achieving an optimal representation of azimuth within the auditory pathway.
  • (3) The mtRF-1 could translate all of the known termination codons in the rat mitochondrial genome.
  • (4) RNA transcribed in vitro from the early region of bacteriophage T3 or T7 was translated by cytoplasmic ribosomes which synthesized protein in cell-free systems prepared from mammalian cells and wheat germ.
  • (5) Translation: 'We do less, you get yourself sorted.'"
  • (6) Release of nsP4 from P1234 appears to be independent of the other cleavages and occurs primarily immediately after translation.
  • (7) The 21K peptide had little direct effect on the selection of promoters in vitro as measured by this technique, but it dramatically increased the translatability of the product.
  • (8) It is proposed that in A. brasilense, the PII protein and glutamine synthetase are involved in a post-translational modification of NifA.
  • (9) Three short reviews by Freud (1904c, 1904d, 1905f) are presented in English translation.
  • (10) The sequence results confirm in vitro translation of 27-, 50-, and 37-kDa products but do not account for the observed 90-kDa product.
  • (11) Moreover, nick-translated [32-P]-pCS75, which is a pUC9 derivative containing a PstI insert with L and S subunit genes (for RuBisCO) from A. nidulans, hybridizes at very high stringency with restriction fragments from chromosomal DNA of untransformed and transformed cells as does the 32P-labeled PstI fragment itself.
