Ex: It is widely recognised that it is difficult and unhelpful to categorise fiction according to a subject classification = Es un hecho ampliamente reconocido la dificultad y la poca utilidad de clasificar la literatura narrativa de acuerdo con una clasificación por materias.Ex: The application of the classification schemes, once constructed, involves synthesis, or the drawing together of the single concepts which are listed in the scheme from their different facets, in order to specify compound subjects.Ex: References will also be necessary, and will fall into the same types as those identified for personal authors, that is, 'see', 'see also', and explanatory references.Ex: There are a number of types of abstracts which will be grouped under the term 'mini-abstracts'.Ex: Some schools favor subject arrangement, other group together everything by publisher, and others sort everything out according to a theme.Ex: During the construction of a thesaurus, the computer can be enlisted to sort, merge, edit and compare terms.Ex: This library decided to launch an attack on illiteracy by pulling together a variety of approaches to learning to read.Ex: The way in which this scheme is put together in book form often causes some confusion at first.Ex: Cards are filed in drawers, approximately 1000 cards per drawer, which when stacked together may form a catalogue cabinet.Ex: The fundamental OOP technique is to encapsulate data with the operations/code that operate on that data into a single entity which is called an object.Ex: Mayo's conclusion was that 'the singling out of certain groups of employees for special attention had the effect of coalescing previously indifferent individuals into cohesive groups with a high degree of group ride or esprit-de-corps'.Ex: He also lumps himself and librarians together as 'devoted and in some instances veteran pursuers, preservers, and disseminators of truth'.Ex: We might consider that the key term, the one on which the others depend and which will juxtapose the document most usefully with others of a like kind, is Home Office.Ex: For instance, in reproduction of Renoir's work under the subject IMPRESSIONISM, Renoir's works would not stand together in the catalog but be spread out according to their titles.Ex: The results of two studies of the way reference librarians work were pooled to provide an understanding of the important features necessary in software for computerized reference work.Ex: The author advises banding retention policies to focus on a few clear options.Ex: This volume is in fact three books shuffled together under one luscious cover, unfurling as a fantasia on technique that explores, among other things, Mau's riffs on modernism.* agrupar los términos sinónimos = merge + synonyms.* agrupar palabras que tienen la misma raíz = merge + word forms.* agruparse = band together, cluster, team, partner.* agruparse (con) = team up (with).* * *agrupar [A1 ]vtagruparon a los niños por edades they divided o put the children into groups according to their agesagrupa esos libros por autores group those books by authorla coalición agrupa a siete partidos distintos the coalition is made up of seven different partiesagrupó a varias organizaciones ecologistas it brought together several ecologist groups1 (formar un grupo) «niños/policías» to gather, form a group; «partidos» to come together, join forces2 (dividirse en grupos) to get into groups* * *
