 Son-in-law is the relationship that an individual has with the husband of his daughter . For example: Miguel and Daniela have a daughter named Victoria , who is married to Pedro . Therefore, Pedro is Miguel and Daniela's son-in-law . It can also be said that Miguel is Pedro's father-in-law , while Daniela is Pedro's mother-in-law . It is a form of kinship that arises from a legally established relationship ( marriage ), with a straight line of descent. For a person to have a son-in-law, he must first have a daughter, and that daughter must have been married. This means that the bond with the son-in-law does not arise by consanguinity, but by what in the field of law is known as affinity . Take the case of Diego Armando Maradona , the former Argentine soccer player. One of Maradona's daughters , called Gianinna , as in a relationship with the player Sergio “Kun” Agüero . While this sentimental bond existed, Agüero was Maradona's son-in-law . Therefore, reciprocal...

  Helmet is a concept that, according to the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy ( RAE ), refers to the sector of armor that, in ancient times, protected the face and head of the user. The helmet, in this sense, was made up of different components, such as the headpiece and the visor. In colloquial language, often linked the helmet to the helmet .

It is important to mention that helmets also seek to provoke fear in the adversary: ​​that is why they used to be ornamented with animal heads or have sharp shapes . The nasal helmet was characterized by having an extension that protected the center of the face, including the nose. The great helmet or cube helmet , for its part, was very popular during the Crusades : it only had small hole...

Yahoo! Inc . , also known simply as Yahoo , is a North American company focused on providing Internet - related features. This company has a directory, a search engine, virtual stores and various applications, among which there is an e-mail system widely used worldwide. The giant Yahoo was created in the early days of 1994 by Jerry Yang and David Filo , two Stanford University students. Two years later the firm was listed on the New York Stock Exchange . In relation to why it was christened Yahoo , not much can be said because the information is not very accurate. The strongest version holds that Filo's father used to comment that his son and Yang were two "yahoos" , a term used in literature to name a wild and heinous creature. Jonathan Swift (responsible for the work " Gulliver's Travels " ) and Jorge Luis Borges are some of the writers who used the concept. Another version maintains that Yahoo is the acronym for Yet Another Hierarchical Officious ...

 The yeísmo is a way of pronunciation characteristic of various regions consisting of pronouncing the LL ( "elle" ) in the same manner as Y ( "e" ). In this way, Yeísmo leads to saying “cabayo” instead of “horse” and “zapayo” instead of “pumpkin” , to name two examples . Yeísmo can be defined as a phonetic alteration , since the articulation of a phoneme is changed . The process implies that two phonemes that were originally different are now confused and used in the same way. In the Spanish of the Middle Ages , LL and Y represented the representation of two different phonemes. Over the years, this differentiation was lost in many countries , although it is still maintained in others. According to specialists, the causes of yeismo are various. On the one hand, in Spanish there are few terms that are distinguished only from the appearance of the Y instead of the LL ( callus / cay , stream / stream , etc.). Therefore, for convenience, the pronunciation difference ...

One yard equals 0.914 meters, 3 feet, 36 inches, 0.00018 leagues, and 0.00056 miles. It is interesting to know that at the international level there are four different types of yards.

In some parts of Argentina it is considered a sacred animal ; In the province of Misiones, for example, many people d...

Specifically, it emanates from the verb iacere , which can be translated as "being stretched out." Archaeological site is the place where rocks, minerals, gases or fossils are naturally found ( geological site ), or the site where archaeological remains are found ( archaeological site ). Geological deposits are formations that present an unusually high concentration of geological materials compared to the rest of the earth's crust. Given the quantity and quality of the materials, a deposit can justify its analysis to determine the possibility of its commercial exploitation. Minerals, metals and hydrocarbons are some of the elements that can be found in deposits. For example: "They found an oil field in the Malvinas Islands" , "The discovery of an immense gold field changed the life of the people . " Archaeological sites, for their part, a...

Later, in Hispanic Arabic, it became zum . Juice is the name of the juice obtained by squeezing , crushing or crushing a fruit , a flower or a leaf . It is, therefore, a liquid .

It is important to bear in mind that these vitamins are lost over time : that is why it is best to drink the juice as ...

 The definition of an urban area varies according to the country in which it is described. In general, it is considered that an urban area is characterized by being permanently inhabited by more than 2,000 inhabitants . The updating of urban development models has caused population density , geographical extension and the planning and creation of infrastructures to combine to be key factors in the delimitation of this class of areas. Although it is not correct to generalize, it can be said that urban areas tend to have a higher surface price and a lower presence of employment in the primary sector than rural areas . On the other hand, urban areas offer a greater range of resources for people's  survival . In this sense, it should also be emphasized that more and more the different authorities of these cities are working at full capacity to ensure that their inhabitants not only have a greater number of resources to survive but also that they have the necessary mechanisms to en...

Rural , for its part, is that which is linked to the countryside . The idea of ​​a rural area, therefore, is linked to a territory with a small number of inhabitants where the main economic activity is agriculture . In this way, the rural area differs from the urban area, which has a greater number of inhabitants and an economy  oriented towards industry or services. Rural areas are made up of fields in which agriculture is developed and cattle are raised . The raw materials obtained in these areas are then sent to the cities, where they are processed and consumed. While in the cities most of the land exhibits buildings and there are various infrastructure works, the rural areas have few buildings. The rural area, in this way, favors an approach to nature .

A clear allusion to the similarity that they maintain with t...

In order for them to fulfill their mission, these zones must be respected by all sides in conflict.

For geology , a base is a plain or plateau tha...

 The zarzuela is a scenic genre that combines declamations, songs and instrumental parts.
