"torschlusspanik"

Oh my, that's a thing for me.

#torschlusspanik #lexicon #words

While we're talking of #math #lexicon, do fractions in the form (1+n)/n (with n nonzero integer) or their reciprocals n/(1+n) (with n ≠ 1) have a name? I have a feeling that they appear freuently enough that they should deserve a name (I don't think I've ever read or heard them be called one in any language in which I've read math-related literature, though, so maybe they just don't).

#math #lexicon question (sorry, I studied these things in Italian, so I don't know the English term). How do you call a sequence or series whose terms have alternating signs *but only after a few terms*?

Think something like
1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 -1 1 -1 1 -1 ...

@joeldebruijn Meer weten over het Common Lexicon for Education en de SIG?

Voorzitter Pien Walraven: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pienwalraven/

Het lexicon in opbouw:
https://lexicon.eduxs.eu/

#lexicon #sigcle

@joeldebruijn De doelstellingen van het Common Lexicon for Education zijn:

- Het faciliteren van de samenwerking tussen mensen, aangezien het helpt 'dezelfde' taal te spreken.

- Het creëren van een gemeenschappelijk uitgangspunt (voor bijvoorbeeld requirements bij aanbestedingen, inrichten user interfaces, maken van klantreizen, consistent formuleren van beleidsstukken, aanzet voor een common data model).

- Het bieden van een solide basis

#sigcle #lexicon

@joeldebruijn Uitdaging lijkt me wel hoe aan te sluiten bij bestaande termen en woordenboeken. zoals bijv die van de ROSA https://rosa.wikixl.nl/index.php/Speciaal:GegevensBekijken/Begrippen?_single=alhoewel die

Dus niet dubbel alles over doen, wel verwijzen maar andersom ik ken geen lexicons die deze gestructureerde manier van definiëren hebben.

#rosa #lexicon #sigcle

Vandaag kick-off "Special Interest Group Common Lexicon for Education" met een praktische manier om naar termen en definities in het onderwijs te kijken. Gecharmeerd over de opzet met "archetypes" en "definitiebouwsteentjes".

#TIL about the "BOW - A Standardized #Lexicon of Body Odor Words Crafted from 17 Countries" -- so now you know how to call that "ineffable" stink :-)

#USA #vocabulary #Lexicon #Amerika 🤣🤣🤣 No wonder #Starmer feels at home there. His #Parliamentary history built on a tissue of lies. Llb (Law, nor exactly top drawer). Only one of many Deputy (i.e. Second) Attorney General. Yes, I know 'good' on Human Rights but I sense more a chancer than ethically +ve. My Westminster Mole says, 'not very good'.

If I was to set up a site for a Lexicon game, would anyone be interested? Does anyone even remember it?

These #Words Are Disappearing in the New #Trump Administration

As Trump seeks to purge the federal government of “woke” initiatives, agencies have flagged hundreds of words to limit or avoid, according to a compilation of government documents.

#Norway knows what's up. This is from the free #lexicon SNL.no that is free to use and maintained by universities and non-profit organizations. On "most read" yesterday is #ketamin and #NarcissisticPersonalityDisorder. I wonder why... And on the "unusually popular" list is #BudapestMemorandum.

“Minus craic”

Irish slang

Something, a vibe, moment or habitus that is super-bad and which you can safely skip and avoid

a bad moment, opposite of fun or a good time

#Irish #slang #lexicon

Now that trump is in the WH, it’s fair to say that “Truth, Justice and the American Way” can now be completely removed from the American lexicon.

Anybody out there still saying "far out"?
