\"Alluvium\"The term alluvium<\/strong> has its etymological root in the Latin language: alluv\u012do, alluvionis<\/em>. The first meanings mentioned by the Royal Spanish Academy<\/strong> (RAE<\/strong>) refer to a intense torrent of water<\/strong> or to current that carries various sediments<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

For example: \"The northern people are still trying to recover from the flood that suffered last month and that left more than a hundred evacuees.\"<\/em>, \u201cThe heavy rains made the River<\/strong> overflowed, generating a flood that caused all kinds of damage \"<\/em>, \"Three people are missing because of a flood in San Jacinto\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n

As mentioned in the first paragraph, the study of the etymology of the term alluvium<\/em> refers us to his Latin ancestor alluvium, alluvionis<\/em>, which can be translated as a flood of waters, a space of land<\/strong> that is flooded or the overflow of a body of water.<\/p>\n

Regarding its structure, we can say that the word alluvium<\/em> begins with the prefix of Latin origin ad-<\/em>, which can also be presented in its form to-<\/em> and serves to indicate \u00abcontiguity or proximity\u00bb, in addition to allowing the intensification<\/strong> of the concepts; other terms in which it can be appreciated are attract, attached, adrenal, approximate<\/em> Y to admire<\/em>.<\/p>\n

After this prefix we find the root belonging to the Latin verb I will wash<\/em>, which translates as \"bathe, wash.\" At this point it is necessary to point out that the root suffers a ablaut<\/strong>, a phenomenon<\/strong> that it can alter different aspects of the terms of Latin origin when a prefix or a second root is prepended to them; if we look at the vowels of I will wash<\/em> Y luvion<\/em> we cannot ignore this alteration.<\/p>\n

The concept alluvium<\/em> not only serves to refer to the avalanche of water that sweeps against a land<\/strong>, but also said spaces of land that are washed away by rainwater and rivers until they are in plains or valleys, deposited after being abruptly carried away, causing varying degrees of destruction on their way. Likewise, it is possible to use the term alluvial<\/em> to refer to these lands.<\/p>\n

\"Alluvium\"Between the materials<\/strong> that are usually part of the alluvium are found clay, silt, gravel and sand<\/strong>, and these can accumulate in deltas, stream channels, alluvial fans, or floodplains. These particles that the water drags are deposited permanently or temporarily, depending on the case. Unless otherwise specified, the word alluvium describes materials that are not consolidated. Two possible synonyms for this phenomenon are avalanche<\/em> Y avalanche<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The idea<\/strong> barrage is also used to name the agglomeration or accumulation of individuals, objects or symbolic elements<\/strong>. Suppose that the police, with the aim of catching the person responsible for a crime, carry out a series of arrests: all suspects are locked up. It can be said, in this framework, that there was a barrage of arrests<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In a similar sense, when thousands of people arrive simultaneously at a place, it is said that a flood is generated. The humanitarian crisis that occurred in Syria<\/strong> by the civil war caused a flood of refugees<\/strong> on Europe<\/strong>, as well as the serious economic problems that Argentina<\/strong> crossed in 2001<\/strong> caused a migratory flood<\/strong> for the people who left the country<\/strong> looking for new job opportunities. Both cases brought consequences of various kinds, both for locals and for immigrants.<\/p>\n

A business<\/strong> that provides poor service, on the other hand, may receive a barrage of claims<\/strong> by its customers, as well as a massive scam that affects thousands of people can lead to a barrage of legal complaints<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n
