Noun Cluster

DEFINITION
"Noun" is
the sentence element representing
people, animals, things, abstract
notions, and groups of each. In a
sentence, nouns execute and suffer the
actions/states expressed by the verbs,
and they may...

Nouns are principal sentence elements.

The meaning starts with the noun, therefore it
makes sense to present the noun first, then
the sentence elements in the "noun
cluster", then the verb, the adverb, and the
remaining independent sentence elements.
That represents "a logic structure".

Since the verb is the most difficult sentence

element, it requires all knowledge about
grammatical categories of "person",
"case", "number", and "gender"--which are
best defined for nouns and pronouns.
 RULE

We do not change the meaning to

accommodate grammatical form;

we use the appropriate

grammatical form which explains
the meaning best.

cluster of modifying words.

THE WAY TO TRANSLATE
Example 1
SOME NEW SAFETY EQUIPMENTS

beberapa
2 peralatan
3
keselamatan
4 baru
Firstly, translate the word SOME, because it is a quantifier,
and a quantifier is located in front of the headword. Then
translate the word EQUUIPMENTS (headword). The next
word in front of the headword is SAFETY, it is a Noun. So,
we notice that the EQUIPMENTS is a safety equipment. In
front of SAFETY is NEW (adjective), which explain that the
safety equipment is new. When we translate the phrase is
Beberapa peralatan keselamatan yang baru

1. The original labeled container
2. A new release of Safety Precaution
3. A high standard job requirement
4. An emergency exit for disabilities visitor
5. A simple installation of safety products
6. Traditional low-pressure sprinkler
7. The potential impacts from
environmental risks
Fire Suppression
In suppressing a fire, traditional low-pressure
sprinkler and deluge systems often cause
significant water damage that can be greater than
the damage caused by the fire itself. Such systems
can also be difficult to install, especially in older
projects. Traditional gas-based systems are
unsuitable for many high-risk areas because of the
difficulty involved in guaranteeing enclosure
integrity, high recharge costs and personnel and
environmental safety issues. Traditional foam-
based systems cause collateral damage and
present the problem of toxic run-off to sewage
systems.
The maritime industry is constantly evolving and striving
for increased innovation. The past few years have been
exceptionally interesting. Major trends like globalisation
and containerisation have reshaped the industry and
continue to present us with challenging changes even
today. This dynamic environment creates a very
interesting work setting, pushing the abilities of the
employees to the limit and setting a high standard for
future co-workers. When looking towards the future of
maritime shipping, a few emerging trends can be
observed. New ways of doing business, earning money
and distinguishing yourself from the competition are
created on a daily basis.
