Because this term was borrowed from Yiddish to English, we chose to leave it also in its borrowed form in French (the alternative would likely be a very long, wordy, analytical French phrase). Rather than being a totally new word to the English language, "tchotchke" has existed since the late 1960s. However, its former meaning ("inexpensive souvenir or trinket") which is now obsolete in current usage, has been replaced by a new, very domain-specific usage in Astrophysics. Such semantic changes are not unusual, as languages are in a constant state of evolution (and in this case, the meanings are not completely dissimilar and unrelated). 2, record 8, English, - tchotchke
Record number: 8, Textual support number: 2 OBS
This neologism is also a "borrowing". English borrows words liberally from other languages; it has, likely, throughout its history. Though the purposes and conditions of borrowing veary greatly, the appearance of foreign words in English often mean a writer is using a native name for an unfamiliar thing or idea. Expanding global contacts are accompanied by more and more borrowings from languages, especially those of Asia and Africa. 2, record 8, English, - tchotchke

Foreign borrowing requirements in 1993 and beyond seem to be fairly low. The external debt service has not proved to be a problem. However, domestic growth cannot be sustained in the medium term without concerted action to deal with inflation and fiscal deficits. 1, record 15, English, - domestic%20growth

Les besoins en emprunt à l'étranger pour 1993 et pour les années subséquentes semblent être plutôt modérés. Le ratio du service de la dette extérieure ne s'est pas avéré un problème. Cependant, la croissance intérieure ne peut pas être maintenue à moyen terme, à moins que des mesures concertées ne soient prises pour réduire l'inflation et les déficits financiers. 1, record 15, French, - croissance%20int%C3%A9rieure

During World War I most countries suspended the redeemability of their currencies into gold..., withdrew gold coins from circulation, and concentrated gold holdings in official reserves. The currencies of most belligerent countries did not, however, depreciate by much in terms of gold and the dollar because of official pegging operations supported by gold sales, foreign borrowing, liquidation of assets abroad, and imposition of some import and exchange controls. At the end of the war the United States was virtually the only country on a full gold standard. 1, record 20, English, - full%20gold%20standard

An even broader definition of intervention would include all the exchange market transactions carried out by other entities(banks, public or private corporations) which may be considered to be directed by the government or the central bank. This is the case when borrowing that would not otherwise have been undertaken in foreign currency takes place and the proceeds are converted in the market. However, this criterion may raise very difficult questions of intent when one tries to determine which foreign currency borrowings should count as intervention. 1, record 22, English, - foreign%20currency%20borrowing

Une définition encore plus large des interventions comprendrait toutes les transactions sur le marché des changes effectuées par d'autres organismes (banques, entreprises des secteurs public ou privé) et qui peuvent être considérées comme faites à l'incitation du gouvernement ou de la banque centrale. C'est le cas lorsque des emprunts, qui n'auraient pas été sans cela lancés en devises étrangères, sont faits et que leur produit est converti sur le marché. Toutefois, l'application de ce critère risque de soulever des problèmes très délicats d'appréciation des intentions lorsqu'il s'agit de déterminer lesquels des emprunts en devises doivent être considérés comme des interventions. 1, record 22, French, - emprunt%20en%20devises
