Abstract:Background: This paper tackles the problematic bissue of translation of the syntactic differences tlāfāt al- ↄicrābīāt الاختلافبد الإعشاث خُ from Arabic into German. For the translator, who is not familiar with the semantic and pragmatic functions of the syntactic differences, he misuses these differences inGerman language. Additionally, the influence of the mother tongue and the multifunctional nature of the syntactic differences that depend on its polysemantic. Essentially, avoiding this issue needs the translator to be aware of the linguistic level of these differences and a comprehensive understanding.

Abstract: The literature establishes that factors accounting for variation in demand for air transport range from macroeconomic variables (gross domestic product, inflation, foreign direct investment, etc) to perception-related variables (safety, comfort, convenience, etc). Studies on these determinants predominantly use data from advanced countries, with limited research on developing countries. This study therefore investigates the impact of macroeconomic variables on the number of air passengers in Nigeria. The dependent variable is the total air passengers (domestic and international) and the independent variables are economic growth, population, foreign direct investment and inflation. A multiple regression model is specified and estimated using the ordinary least squares. The results show that changes in both economic growth and inflation have a negative impact on total air passengers, while movements in population and foreign direct investment have a positive impact. Of the independent variables, only the estimated coefficient of foreign direct investment is not statistically significant. The study concludes that propensity to fly is a volatile variable that is responsive to macroeconomic changes in Nigeria.

Abstract: In today's world of globalization one cannot see identity as an isolated concept, it becomes important to see it in the national as well as global context. Since the age of the internet, the fastest moving thing is thought and information dissemination. Problems that a woman faces in the current world are all based on the mentality that has developed through time. The woman has been taken to be a fragile object that belongs to a man, she is either a daughter, a sister, a wife, or a mother who has to be protected from all the negativities and evils in the society. It is these negatives that become the biggest problems of the modern day woman in general, the list is endless, however to count....

Abstract:Excerpts The beauty, nobility and even splendor of man is that he is equipped with the capacity for posing questions about humanity, his destiny and mission in the world, and the basic meaningfulness of existence. This is why he is not an inanimate object or a beast but a sensitive-intellective being. This meaning-seeking and quest for knowledge for ultimate explanation is the philosophical project. Philosophy through her interrogative capacity, her hard thinking and critical evaluative ability has proved to be a great catalyst and stimulus in human knowing, his creative and disciplinary....

Abstract: Traditional models predict that individuals are rational beings capable of making their own decisions. However, after the emergence of the field of Behavioural Economics, economists found out that individuals are not at all rational. They get carried away by emotions and behave rather peculiarly. Human behaviour can be analyzed using two theories, the Heuristic Theory and the Prospect Theory. Each of these theories possesses certain biases which individuals need to consider when making choices. These biases may have positive and negative impacts on the individual's investments. We conducted a study with two stocks in the stock market and found out that if a stock behaves oppositely.......

Abstract: In this paper, I explore the interlocking forms of oppression, which Asian American women experience. I also show how they have created communities of resistance and transformation towards social justice. Asian American women as a group collectively changed from being omitted from the predominantly white middle-class feminist movements and racial endeavors to a distinct group incorporating feminist, anti-racist, and anti-class discrimination elements and worked in collaboration with various other groups. This paper will attempt to argue that accepting and dealing with intersectionality played the roles of both an obstacle and a catalyst in the formation and evolvement of Asian American feminism and activism. Bravely facing the past and coming to terms with complex identities have always been the way to move forward for Asian American women.

Abstract: In Nigeria, there have been massive financial failures by the deposit money banks, which live a big question mark on the character of auditors and their impetus role in the financial reporting quality. Thisstudy examined the impact of audit committee characteristics (Size, independence, meeting, Expertise, Shareholding, firm size) on financial reporting quality in the context of deposit money banks. The study utilised data of fourteen (14) deposit money banks listed on the first tier of the Nigerian stock Exchange as at December,2020. Using Multiple Regression model, the study finds that a decrease in audit committee size, audit committee independence, audit committee meeting, and audit committee expertise, decreases financial reporting quality. On the contrary, an increase in shareholding and firm size increase financial........
