Merritt Ruhlen notes that this definition is not properly taxonomic but amorphous, since there are broader and narrower degrees of relatedness, and moreover, some linguists who broadly accept the concept ( such as Greenberg and Ruhlen himself ) have criticised the name as reflecting the ethnocentrism frequent among Europeans at the time.

However, the narrower definition used in the Open Definition effectively limits open content to libre content ; any free content license would qualify as an open content license.

* Overriding and overloading: The intentional use of the same name for multiple implementations of an object's method or operation to represent the same data in different ways, for conciseness when multiple similar operations are involved, and / or to alter the implementation of an inherited method to make it more suitable for the narrower definition of the object's data.

The group seems to have adopted the name Section d ' Or to distinguish themselves from the narrower definition of Cubism developed in parallel by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque in the Montmartre quarter of Paris, and to show that Cubism, rather than being an isolated art-form, represented the continuation of a grand tradition ( indeed, the golden ratio had fascinated Western intellectuals of diverse interests for at least 2, 400 years ).

In a monoid, the notion of inverse as defined in the previous section is strictly narrower than the definition given in this section.

Whether one adopts the narrower zoological definition of domestication or the broader cultural definition that rests on an array of zoological and archaeological evidence affects the time frame chosen for domestication of the horse.

In ornithology, and the definition used here, the term has a narrower meaning for birds that have very good eyesight for finding food, strong feet for holding food, and a strong curved beak for tearing flesh.

By way of an example, the narrower definition excludes storks and gulls, which can eat quite large fish, partly because these birds catch and kill prey entirely with their beaks, and similarly bird-eating skuas, fish-eating penguins, and vertebrate-eating kookaburras are excluded.

Because this could apply to everything that humans create, it is given a narrower definition in the context of technical drawing.

A narrower definition of oral tradition is sometimes appropriate.

This article is mostly concerned with Sephardim in the narrower ethnic sense, rather than in this broader Modern Israeli Hebrew definition.

In the OSI model, the definition of its application layer is narrower in scope, explicitly distinguishing additional functionality above the transport layer at two additional levels, the session layer and the presentation layer.

This definition was accepted by German manufacturers and the German press after Daimler introduced the 2005 Mercedes-Benz CLS 4 door coupé ( an earlier example was the Rover P5 Coupé which was based on the standard P5 3 litre, but with the roof line lowered, narrower window frames, and more raked front and rear windscreens ).

Although it implies a comparison with a narrower definition that refers to a central city only, such as Greater London versus the City of London, or Greater New York versus New York City, it is not part of the " comparative " in the grammatical sense this article describes.

In addition to this definition, the term also possibly had a narrower meaning depending upon the context in which it was used.

Note that this means that algebraic group is narrower than Lie group, when working over the field of real numbers: there are examples such as the universal cover of the 2 × 2 special linear group that are Lie groups, but have no faithful linear representation.

Short hook with a pointed tip is a pike pole ; longer hook on a San Francisco hook ; two offset hooks on either side of tip is a universal hook ; long p-shaped hook is a Boston rake for pulling plaster and lath ; short hook with claw on opposite side of tip is either a gypsum hook or the narrower ceiling hook ; pike pole with a short handle is a somewhat useless closet hook.

Double-muscled cows also can experience dystocia, even when bred to normal beef bulls or dairy bulls, because of a narrower birth canal.

The cornet mouthpiece has a shorter and narrower shank than a trumpet mouthpiece so it can fit the cornet's smaller mouthpiece receiver.

Thus, the speed of the air above the wing is higher than below it, as can be seen in the narrower streamtube.

Toxins are often distinguished from other chemical agents by their method of production-the word toxin does not specify method of delivery ( compare with venom and the narrower meaning of poison – all substances that can also cause disturbances to organisms ).

Operating at a lower frequency, IF filters can give narrower passbands at the same Q factor than an equivalent RF filter.

Rejection of the narrower sense of theism can take forms such as deism, pantheism, and polytheism.

By 1972, the clean and press was discontinued because athletes started to push with legs and bend backwards instead of strictly pressing the weight overhead, and this left the sole elements of what is today's modern Olympic weightlifting programme – the snatch and the clean and jerk. The snatch entails pulling with a wide grip the barbell overhead without pressing out with the arms. It is a very precise lift that can be nullified by a lack of balance of the athlete. The clean and jerk is more forgiving using a narrower grip pull the bar to the shoulders and then using the strength of the legs push until arms reach full extension without a press out.

* Compression ( zoology ) when an animal, or part of an animal, is shorter or narrower compared with other animals in the same group ; e. g. the body of a lizard may be " compressed " ( flattened ) so it can better fit into crevices under rocks

This allows extremely narrow band detection ( much narrower than any possible color filter can achieve ) as well as precision measurements of phase and frequency of a light signal relative to a reference light source, as in Laser Doppler Vibrometry.

Many of the components used in lower-end " workstations " are now the same as those used in the consumer market, and the price differential between the lower end workstation and consumer PCs can be narrower than it once was ( and in certain cases in the high-end consumer market, such as the " enthusiast " game market, it can be difficult to tell what qualifies as a " desktop PC " and a " workstation ").

Rotary valve engines can be tailored to deliver power over a wider speed range or higher power over a narrower speed range than either piston port or reed valve engine.

So a narrower bandwidth and more selectivity can be achieved by converting the signal to a lower IF and performing the filtering at that frequency.

The plectra for the Japanese biwa and shamisen can be quite large, and those used for the Arabic oud are longer and narrower, replacing the formerly used eagle feather.

The sexes appear fairly similar, but the adult male can be distinguished from the female by its slimmer body and narrower wings.
