Dejection can be associated with exhaustion and sadness.
Dejection is the act and consequence of dejection . This verb can be used to name the action of defeating , collapsing or subduing or, in the field of maritime, the deviation of a vessel from its course due to the influence of the wind.
Before moving forward with the definition of the term, it is necessary to know its etymological origin. In this case, we have to explain that it derives from the Latin abbatuere , which can be translated as “tear down” or “throw down.” In the same way, it is interesting to establish that this verbal form is the result of the sum of two perfectly differentiated words:
-The prefix ad- , which can be translated as “towards” .
-The verb battuere , which means “to hit.”
What is dejection
Dejection, therefore, can be defeat , elimination , dishonor , or outrage . For example: “The reduction of the technological backwardness of this country will only be achieved when the State decides to make a strong investment in local industries” , “The terrorist group was weakened after the dejection of its leader” , “We have to work together to achieve the abatement of drug trafficking.”
The notion of dejection can also be used with reference to the tiredness or exhaustion of an individual , whether spiritual or physical: “After France's second goal, the local team's dejection was absolute,” “The image of dejection in the neighbors of “The city is notorious for this new flood,” “It is important to overcome despondency and fight again: we cannot give up because there is still much to do.”
The modification of the course of a boat due to the wind is called leeching.
The concept in maritime
In maritime , leeway is the change of course of a ship due to the wind . In this case, the wind affects the underside of the ship: that is, on the sector of the hull that is above the surface of the water. When a current deflects the boat due to its influence on the livework (the submerged sector), we speak of drift and not of depression.
It should be noted that the leeway is expressed as the angular difference that exists between the true course of the vessel and the course resulting from the action of the wind.
Temperature drop
In the culinary field, the term that we are now addressing is also used. Specifically, it is used with the expression temperature reduction . It is used to refer to the use of the article called blast chiller , which aims to ensure that a product is at an adequate temperature in order to prevent the risk of bacteria developing from increasing.
That is, it is a process in favor of food security. However, it must be taken into account that chilling itself is about quickly cooling the food that has just been prepared in order to extend the life of what has been prepared and so that it can be preserved. in the best way possible.
There are two types of cooling: the positive , going from 90º to 3º, and the negative , which consists of moving the food from 90º to 18º.
