enmeshes in Explanation: I believe the verb "enmesh" is the synonym related to "involved" that propertly communicates the connotation in this context. Mike :) |

which interferes with Explanation: in other words, there is no social construction of knowledge..knowledge is constructed by the subject, subjectively... it would be good to see the full sentence....because the SUA is not clear... |

which implies an obvious historical circumstantiality Explanation: I think implies works well here. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 23 hrs 3 mins (2004-07-23 08:28:28 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think the sentence is saying that individuals are realizing that knowledge is shaped by the social and historical context, circumstances from which it emerges. \"Implicar na\" usually means to meddle, interfere, etc. but sometimes it is also used in the sense of imply. Here are some examples found in a Google search: -O ato de inscrição neste concurso implica na aceitação e concordância com todos os itens deste regulamento. -O uso deste site implica na aceitação dos Termos de Uso. -A maioria desses itens é de pequeno porte, o que implica na facilidade de manuseio, rapidez na entrega e baixo custo de transporte. I think these examples explain what I mean. Hope this helps. |
