Ex: Later this strip is retyped into ordinary language, for in its nascent form it is intelligible only to the initiated.Ex: For transmission by the telephone network, data must be converted into signals in this band of frequencies, by means of modems.Ex: The cords themselves could be placed either outside the backs of the folded sheets, where they would show as raised bands across the spine of the book, or in slots sawn into the folds to give the book a flat back.Ex: The article 'Off the sidelines, onto the playing field' discusses a recent project which commissioned 9 research papers to explore the future of libraries.Ex: There are 2 prongs to this research, one explores the use of the term 'information' and the other major part of the study investigates a number of aspects of some information management positions.Ex: This paper describes an oscillating chemical reaction, and discusses numerous parallels to it in research, such as in fibrillation of the heart, body-clock rhythms of animals and plants, the self-assembly of multicellular organisms, and certain stripes in volcanic rock.Ex: The groups continue, however, to keep alive their heritages through festivals and cultural activities.Ex: The large pod of about 75 narwhals milled around the bay in the summer feeding grounds.Ex: In the 1920s and 1930s more than 1 million books were being loaned each year to members as far afield as the most isolated settlers' gangs working on distant branch lines.Ex: Just one other question: why are some of the sashes worn from left shoulder to right hip or right shoulder to left hip?.Ex: In recent years a band of disciples has grown up in India, and has contributed to the revision and expansion of the schedules.* ancho de banda = bandwidth.* asalto a dos bandas = two-pronged attack.* a tres bandas = three pronged.* banda ancha = wide-band, broadband.* banda antirrobo magnética = magnetic security tag.* banda callejera = street gang, gang, gang of youths.* banda de base = baseband.* banda de delincuentes = crime ring.* banda de linchadores = lynch mob.* banda de música = band, musical band, marching band, brass band.* banda de rodamiento de neumático = tyre tread.* banda estrecha = narrow-band.* banda gástrica = gastric band.* banda impositiva = income tax bracket, tax bracket.* banda juvenil = gang of youths.* banda magnética = magnetic strip, magnetic stripe, magstripe.* banda musical = musical band.* banda sonora = sound track film, soundtrack [sound track], rumble strip.* banda sonora de película = film music.* banda terrorista = terrorist group.* cabecilla de la banda = leader of the pack.* carrete de banda sonora = sound track film reel.* grabación de banda de música = band recording.* tarjeta de banda magnética = swipecard.* * *A1 ( Indum) (en la cintura, cruzando el pecho) sash; (franja, lista) band; (para el pelo) ( Méx) hair bandllevaba una banda negra en el brazo he was wearing a black armband2 (de tierra) stripCompuestos:broad bandfrequency band( Méx) fan belttreadtax bandtrimmagnetic stripceremonial sash ( worn by the president)salary band( Méx) conveyor beltB1 (de un barco) side2 (en el billar) cushion3 (en fútbol) touchlinelanzó el balón fuera de banda he kicked the ball into touch o out of play o ( AmE) out of boundscerrarse en banda to refuse to listendejar a algn/andar/quedar en banda ( RPl fam): anda en banda he doesn't know what to do with himself, he's at a bit of a lossse fueron y me dejaron en banda they went off and left me not knowing what to do with myself o and left me at a bit of a lossC1 (de delincuentes) gangbanda armada armed gangbanda terrorista terrorist group2 ( Mús) band3 (de aves) flock* * *
