Abstract:
Temporal adverbs can usually be divided into groups. Amongst those are adverbs of quantification, such as often, sometimes and never, and frequency adverbs, such as constantly and regularly. This paper presents some new data that shows that the Icelandic temporal adverb alltaf ‘always’ can be both an adverb of quantification and a frequency adverb. When alltaf modifies a progressive construction its meaning shifts, depending on the aktionsart of the restrictor. When the restrictor is punctual, alltaf functions as an adverb of quantification and has a frequency meaning (X is always happening at

Abstract:
Natural language processing is an important subject in the field of artificial intelligence; one of the key issues is the quantification research on the fuzzy semantics, and the fuzziness of natural language is mostly reflected on the adverbs. This paper presented one new method to quantify the English adverbs. After briefly introducing the Medium Logic (ML) and Measure of Medium Truth Degree (MMTD), commendatory and derogatory were qualitatively described with logical predicates C and C respectively; the truth degree related to C or C of an adverb could be quantitatively calculated by the mod

Abstract This paper presents a research on rating scales in response to different situations. It aims to improve the significance and accuracy of ordinal scales, transforming them into interval scales. To reach this objective, the presented scales combine quantitative and qualitative perspectives, joining the ease of the Likert scale and the Thurstone’s procedure. In this research, a sample of subjects was asked to indicate the numerical value of adverbs, in reference to a numerical scale.

This study focuses on non-predicate adverbs of time in Japanese. From the data analysis it can be concluded as follows. Adverbs of time can be divided into two, namely adverbs of time in quality and adverbs of time in quantity. Adverbs of time in quality consists of at least four groups. State (1) day, week, date, month and year, (2) now, tomorrow, day after tomorrow, yesterday, today, this morning, and so on, (3) hours, (4) a certain time.

Abstract:
For relatively simple activities such as counting, determining a ranking order, or distributing some quantity in equal portions, handling the numbers of Turkish is really straightforward. There are cardinal, ordinal, and distributive numbers. These numbers behave like nouns in that they can take a plural or possessive suffix, or a case marker and combinations of these. These properties find ample employment and thus receive due attention in a sizeable section. Next is a section that goes into the intricacies of quantification: absolute quantities are opposed to relative quantities, and many examples are given of adverbs indicating indefinite quantities, nouns functioning as containers, and measurement units. The treatment of numerical fractions forms the introduction to a section in which partitive constructions are discussed. This chapter is concluded by a section that explores several expressions for age.

Abstract:
In this paper we focus on what is central and what is peripheral in the grammatical structure of the Croatian language, in particular on the grammatical categories of number, aspect and word classes. With respect to the category of number, the relationship between singular and plural is central, while the periphery consists of other ways of expressing quantity relations (number as a word class, collectiveness, substantivity). With respect to the category of aspect, the opposition imperfective – perfective is central, while the periphery consists of Aktionsart. With respect to word classes, the basic word classes are central, while the periphery consists of hybrid forms and/or hybrid word classes (e.g. participles, infinitive, gerunds, pronominal adjectives and pronominal adverbs, etc.). Finally, we will discuss the central and the peripheral in phonology and semantics (as peripheral areas in relation to grammar).

Abstract:
This chapter offers an introduction to the recently developed applied health science fields of patient safety, improvement, and implementation sciences. Healthcare is a high-risk activity because of the complexity of its systems and processes. Errors arise frequently and these can impact negatively on patients by causing adverse events. Errors and adverse events are generally attributable to defective systems for organizing care, which create conditions in which errors arise. This represents a failure of risk management. Patient safety science takes a scientific approach to understanding why errors occur and how to prevent their occurrence or minimize their impact. Learning from analysis of patient safety incidents, through root-cause analysis, enables an organization or service to learn and avoid repeating similar failures in the future. Patient safety incidents represent one aspect of the wider problem of poor-quality care. Improvement science offers standardized tools and measurements that can be used to monitor and improve healthcare delivery. The Model for Improvement employs repeated Plan–Do–Study–Act (PDSA) cycles to quantify problems and to develop and test potential solutions. Engagement with stakeholders is an essential part of this process. Implementation science can contribute by providing methods to promote the uptake of new research evidence into healthcare practice. It can address the second translational gap by facilitating the widespread adoption of strategies for improving health-related processes and outcomes, and advancing knowledge on how best to replicate intervention effects from trials into real-world settings. These new scientific fields provide well-established approaches to addressing some of the key problems arising in healthcare. Modern public health needs to reap the benefits of these newly emerged sciences to address the burden of adverse events and harm that arises in the delivery of healthcare and to promote evidence-based practice.
