The same high-low distinction held for climate change; some countries had contributed a great deal to the problem, others very little.
This high-low distinction is evident in urban safety, where the police are in charge of "keeping the peace" (治安, zhì'ān) while employees of "city management" (城管, chéngguǎn) beat street vendors and migrant workers.
The last gasp of sharp high-low distinctions was the 1930's.
They made big claims, and those claims prepared the ground for their own epochal films, which went even further to sweep away the high-low distinctions.
By contrast, poetry in Japanese is distinguished from prose mainly in that it consists of alternating lines of five and seven syllables; however, if the intensity of emotional expression is low, this distinction alone cannot save a poem from dropping into prose.
The word "thug" wasn't included in this study, but if it had been it would have likely rated very low in distinction, and likely very high in worthlessness and stupidity.
Meanwhile, H. Chang (2010) revisits M. Chang's high-low applicative distinction and observes that what has been taken as low applicatives (i.e., i-applicatives) turns out to behave like high applicatives in Tsou.
Table 3 sums up how the high-low applicative distinction is made in Pylkkänen's analysis.
This amounts to saying that the high-low applicative distinction is non-existent and that all applicatives are high applicatives.
In light of Chomsky's phase theory, McGinnis (2001, 2008) ties extraction possibilities to the Pylkkänen-style high-low applicative distinction.
On the assumption that applicatives are consistently high in Tsou, as already argued in section Dispensing with the high-low applicative distinction, the shared ApplP should be a high ApplP, merged under a vP and above a VP.
