SALIDA AL MAR

The War of the Pacific, fought victoriously by Chile against Peru and Bolivia (1879-1883), was to have a huge influence on the later development of all three countries. The major incentive for turning a territorial dispute into a war was the rich deposits of nitrates (then a vital raw material for the production of fertilizers and explosives) in the Atacama Desert. By acquiring the Atacama, Chile also deprived Bolivia of its only access to the sea at the port of Antofagasta, with inevitably damaging consequences for the future economic and commercial development of the country. Bolivia's desire for a salida al mar (“outlet to the sea”) led it to seek alternative access to the Atlantic, and this was partly behind the outbreak of the horrific Chaco War with Paraguay (1932-1935), though the interest of foreign oil companies in possible oil deposits in the Chaco region was at least as important a factor. Today, Bolivia has adopted the peaceful road of negotiations with Chile to resolve the problem.

nascere¹

/'na∫∫ere/ [63]

La traduzione in inglese di nascere crea due tipi di problemi: innanzitutto, il verbo nascere è reso dalla forma passiva di to bear (= partorire, generare), cosicché to be born traduce nascere in quanto significa essere partorito / generato; ciò spiega l'imperfetta corrispondenza formale nelle due lingue in frasi come sono nato / nacqui nel 1956 = I was born in 1956 o era nato in una famiglia povera = he had been born in a poor family; secondariamente, quando nascere è usato in senso letterale ma non in riferimento agli esseri umani oppure in senso figurato, l'inglese utilizza solitamente altri verbi, per i quali vedi sotto le accezioni 2 e seguenti.
