Focusing on university students, this study examines how teacher-student relationships and academic climate impact academic motivation. It highlights the growing issue of career anxiety among students and its effects on their motivation. The research identifies differences in these factors based on students' fields of study and explores the interplay between academic climate, teacher-student relationships, and motivation. Results indicate that both teacher-student relationships and academic climate are significant predictors of motivation, with career anxiety moderating these relationships.

Exploring the similarities between Portuguese and Romanian, this study focuses on the systems of forms of address within these two Romance languages, particularly their phonetic commonalities.

Focusing on the linguistic distinctions between Spanish and Portuguese, this analysis explores their historical and geographical ties as Romance languages.

There is a reason why Stephen King is one of the bestselling writers in the world, ever. As George Pelecanos says: 'King's gift of storytelling is unrivalled. His ferocious imagination is unlimited.' King knows how to write stories that draw you in and are impossible to put down. The house looks right, feels right, to Dr Louis Creed. Rambling, old and comfortable. A place where the family can settle; the children can grow and play and explore. The rolling hills and meadows of Maine seem a world away from the fume-choked dangers of Chicago. Only the occasional big truck out on the two-lane highway growls out an intrusive threat. But behind the house there's a carefully cleared path up into the woods where generations of local children have processed with the solemn innocence of the young, taking with them their dear departed pets for burial. A sad place maybe, but safe. Surely a safe place. Not a place to seep into your dreams, to wake you, sweating with fear and foreboding... 'King can make the flesh creep half a world away.' - The Times If you were held in Stephen King's terrifying grip by Cujo, The Dark Half, 'Salem's Lot and The Shining, then don't miss one of the most powerful horror stories of all time, Pet Sematary.

'If you read only one novel this Summer, make it this one' (Daily Mail). THE OUTSIDER is a compelling and chilling suspense novel, which will delight all readers of King's crime thrillers, including the Hodges trilogy.

Die Analyse fokussiert sich auf die sprachlichen Unterschiede zwischen Spanisch und Portugiesisch, die als "Schwestersprachen" betrachtet werden. Die enge Beziehung dieser romanischen Sprachen ist historisch und geografisch bedingt, insbesondere im Mittelalter, als ihre Unterschiede minimal waren. Im Laufe der Zeit entwickelten sich die Sprachen jedoch weiter und entfernten sich voneinander, wobei viele Ähnlichkeiten bis heute bestehen bleiben. Die Untersuchung beleuchtet, wie diese Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede die sprachliche Identität beider Sprachen geprägt haben.

Die Studie untersucht die Anredeformen im Portugiesischen und Rumänischen, die trotz ihrer gemeinsamen Wurzeln im antiken Römischen Reich unterschiedliche Eigenschaften aufweisen. Sie analysiert die phonetischen Ähnlichkeiten und erforscht, ob diese auch auf anderen sprachlichen Ebenen zutreffen. Ein Schwerpunkt liegt auf den Übersetzungsproblemen, die aus den spezifischen Anredeformen resultieren, sowie auf möglichen Lösungen. Ziel ist es, ein tieferes Verständnis für die translinguale Beziehung zwischen diesen beiden romanischen Sprachen zu entwickeln.
