Carlton Duncan discussed the difficulties built into the educational processes which led to under-performance at school and the resulting low representation in higher education and low entry into the professions.Ex. Soon, however, the collection outgrew its meagre quarters and a full-fledged library occupying a 40x60 foot area came into being.Ex. Examples are generally poor or obscure (often in Latin or German).Ex. Scant attention is paid to evaluation and the needs of users.Ex. If staff time and expertise for initial evolution of the thesaurus are scarce, the system can usually function with a less thoroughly refined thesaurus.Ex. The ISBD(CP)'s recommendations are very similar in principle to those for AACR2's 'in' analytics, except for slight changes in punctuation and order.Ex. Abstracting journals vary enormously in scope ranging from vast publications covering an entire discipline, to slim volumes centred on a relatively narrow topic.Ex. However, in producing a bulletin one is often torn between including the scanty, undigested and possibly inaccurate details of a new proposal and holding fire until fuller information is available, and thereby missing a publication deadline.Ex.

Ex: Carlton Duncan discussed the difficulties built into the educational processes which led to under-performance at school and the resulting low representation in higher education and low entry into the professions.Ex: Soon, however, the collection outgrew its meagre quarters and a full-fledged library occupying a 40x60 foot area came into being.Ex: Examples are generally poor or obscure (often in Latin or German).Ex: Scant attention is paid to evaluation and the needs of users.Ex: If staff time and expertise for initial evolution of the thesaurus are scarce, the system can usually function with a less thoroughly refined thesaurus.Ex: The ISBD(CP)'s recommendations are very similar in principle to those for AACR2's 'in' analytics, except for slight changes in punctuation and order.Ex: Abstracting journals vary enormously in scope ranging from vast publications covering an entire discipline, to slim volumes centred on a relatively narrow topic.Ex: However, in producing a bulletin one is often torn between including the scanty, undigested and possibly inaccurate details of a new proposal and holding fire until fuller information is available, and thereby missing a publication deadline.Ex: The popular libraries in Lima are sparse and lack the technology and the cultural and information instruments popular in Italy.Ex: Without any significant restructuring, the LIS programme in Iran will provide little in the way of riding out the rapid transition that the field is currently experiencing.Ex: Although it may be a bit thin in its use of standard academic sources of information, it is exceedingly strong on insider information and personal interviews.Ex: Often times new graduate job-seekers produce skimpy resumes because they fail to include all of their relevant experience.* andar escaso de = be short of.* andar escaso de dinero = be strapped for + cash.* andar (muy) escaso de dinero = be (hard) pressed for + money.* andar (muy) escaso de tiempo = be (hard) pressed for + time.* con medios muy escasos = on a shoestring (budget).* escasa comunicación = poor communication.* escasa probabilidad = slim chance.* escaso de dinero = cash strapped, financially strapped, short of money, strapped.* escaso de ideas = short of ideas.* escaso de tiempo = time-strapped, short of time.* evidencia + ser + escasa = evidence + be + slight.* hacerse escaso = become + scarce.* ser escaso = be few and far between.* ser muy escaso = be at a premium.* ya de por sí escaso = already-scarce.* * *escaso -sa1(poco, limitado): un país de escasos recursos económicos a country with limited o scant o slender economic resourcesante un público escaso in front of a small audienceescasas posibilidades de éxito slim o slender chances of success, little chance of successla visibilidad en la zona del aeropuerto es escasa there is poor o limited visibility around the airportla comida resultó escasa there wasn't enough foodobras de escasa calidad works of mediocre qualityuna persona de escasa inteligencia a person of limited intelligencemis conocimientos sobre este tema son escasos my knowledge of this subject is limited2(en expresiones de medida, peso): falta un mes escaso para que llegue there's barely o scarcely a month to go before it arrivesestá a una distancia de cinco kilómetros escasos it's barely o scarcely five kilometers awaypesa un kilo escaso it weighs barely o scarcely a kiloa escasos tres días/dos meses ( AmL); barely three days/two months awayse despertó luego de escasas tres horas de sueño ( AmL); she awoke having slept for barely three hours3 (falto) escaso DE algo short OF sthde momento ando escaso de dinero I'm a little o a bit short of money at the moment, money's a bit scarce o tight at the momentandamos escasos de personal we're short-staffed* * *

APENAS El adverbio apenas tiene dos traducciones principales en inglés: hardly y scarcely, este último usado en lenguaje más formal. ► Estos adverbios se colocan normalmente detrás de los verbos auxiliares y modales y delante de los demás verbos: Apenas podía hablar después del accidente He could hardly o scarcely speak after the accident Apenas nos conocemos We hardly o scarcely know each other ► Sin embargo, en oraciones temporales, podemos colocar hardly y scarcely al principio de la oración si queremos reforzar la inmediatez de algo, o como recurso estilístico en cuentos y relatos. En este caso los adverbios van siempre seguidos de un verbo auxiliar, con lo que se invierte el orden normal del sujeto y del verbo en inglés, quedando la estructura hardly/ scarcely + had + ((sujeto)) + ((participio)) + when ...: Apenas me había acostado cuando oí un ruido extraño Hardly o Scarcely had I gone to bed when I heard a strange noise En este sentido se suele utilizar también no sooner + had + ((sujeto)) + ((participio)) + than...: Apenas me había acostado cuando oí un ruido extraño No sooner had I gone to bed than I heard a strange noise Para otros usos y ejemplos ver la entradaapenas había cumplido quince años cuando... — he'd only just turned fifteen when...
