Putting it All Together: Linguistics and Variation in the Spanish Language -- Notes -- Glossary of Terms -- Bibliography -- Suggestions for Future Reading -- Author Index -- Subject IndexSpanish is a pluricentric language, meaning that it has several centers of prestige (e.g., San Juan, Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Lima). Moreover, Spanish, like all languages, evinces sociolinguistic variation, in that levels of formality are expressed through the use of different structures. Given this variety, students of Spanish will inevitably come into contact with variation Spanish. This variation in Spanish adds layers of complexity to the learning and instruction of the Spanish language; therefore, a linguistic understanding of variation is crucial for our students to achieve communicative competence. This unique work, which provides an overview of the most important linguistic aspects of Spanish within a context that recognizes variation, assumes no prior linguistic knowledge and is appropriate as a valuable resource manual for teachers and learners of Spanish alike.New perspectives on language and education ;14.Spanish languageStudy and teachingForeign speakersSpanish languageVariationSecond language acquisitionSpanish as an international language.Spanish instructors.communicative competence.dialectal differences.language and education.learners of Spanish.sociolinguistic variation.Spanish languageStudy and teachingForeign speakers.Spanish languageVariation.Second language acquisition.467/.009IM 1495rvkArteaga Deborah1522754Llorente Lucía I(Lucía Isabel)1522755MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778059003321Spanish as an international language3762631UNINA03598nam 22006015 450 991030018860332120200629162934.01-4939-1501-010.1007/978-1-4939-1501-9(CKB)3710000000239249(EBL)1964980(OCoLC)908083000(SSID)ssj0001354338(PQKBManifestationID)11732972(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001354338(PQKBWorkID)11327518(PQKB)11320348(DE-He213)978-1-4939-1501-9(MiAaPQ)EBC1964980(PPN)181348179(EXLCZ)99371000000023924920140913d2015 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrUpper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma /edited by Shahrokh F.

Its aim is to improve understanding and eventually care of a disease that is greatly understudied and underappreciated, yet commonly dealt with by many medical and urologic oncologists. The volume features new data regarding genetic susceptibility, gene expression studies and causative factors; contemporary concepts and controversies regarding diagnosis and staging of UTUC; prediction tools and their value in treatment decisions within each disease stage andpatient selection and treatment options such as endoscopic management, distal ureterectomy, radical nephroureterectomy and chemotherapy. Up-to-date information regarding boundaries of surgical resection, indication and extent of lymphadenectomy are covered as well as the role of perioperative/neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with high-risk UTUC.   Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma will be of great value to all Urologists, Medical Oncologists, and fellows in Urologic Oncology as well as upper level residents in training in Urology and Medical Oncology.UrologyOncologyUrologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H62002Oncologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33160Urology.Oncology.Urology.Oncology.610616.6616994Shariat Shahrokh Fedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtXylinas Evanguelosedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300188603321Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma1761804UNINA
