Conditional sentence

Things: A Story of the Sixties by Georges Perec (1965) explores consumerism through the lives of a young couple, Sylvie and Jerome. The novel looks at their growth, from college students to part-time surveyors to faceless employees, always looking for fulfillment via the newest trend. Whether it is an abundance of vases, or living in Tunisia, Perec shows how influential the language of advertising truly is. To feel like their life has meaning, Sylvie and Jerome spend money and energy on intrinsically

Given the two necessary conditions for measuring the distributional characteristics of L2 input stated above, it becomes obvious that input variability differs fundamentally from the variability in a TL construction (cf. section 2.3.2). The same conclusion can be drawn from the fact that non-robust input and the TL variable structure are proposed as two different, though closely related and interacting, forces of interlanguage fossilization (Han, 2013) (see section 2.3.1). For simplicity, variability

reinforced by the rest of the stanza, a single sentence formed by a pair of past conditional clauses. "What he had meant," as direct object, parallels "What else there was," as subject, forming a nice balance of speculation within the triple-layered clause. This is continued within the second clause by "what was hanging from a beam," forming a seesaw of supposition that is given another push by the predicate "Would not have heeded," another past conditional verb. Beebe suggests that this back and forth

the past. Beebe implies that “a certain poetic inertia militates against supposing change, and much more is needed to indicate or certify such change than exists.” This hypothesis is reinforced by the rest of the stanza, a single sentence formed by a pair of past conditional clauses. "What he had meant," as direct object, parallels "What else

I. Further analysis and implications of isolated worlds One of the fundamental tenants of this view is that these possible worlds must not engage with one another in any way. In order to be fully isolated, the occurrence of something in one world does not and cannot influence what goes on in any other world. Lewis goes on to say that an infinite number of such worlds exists. This is because there is an infinite number of possibilities for how one part of a world could possibly be. Lewis includes

Counterfactuals and mechanistic theories present two distinct, although perhaps not incompatible causal theories. In this paper, I will outline them, contrast their basic strengths, and finally aim to argue in favour of a monist mechanistic account, in particular focusing on resolving two general arguments against mechanistic theory - to which the answer is commonly to adopt a pluralistic account. Let’s begin by considering our two causal accounts: First, counterfactuals centre on the notion that
