architectural space › Definition and Meaning
The concept then occupy us has a unique and essential employment in the field of architecture being without doubt one of the pillars of the activity that unfolds this discipline.Because the architectural space is nothing more than this space a professional architecture creates, develops land for an individual, a family, a couple, among others, can be performed in a manner consistent and easily their daily activities: eat, relax, entertain, work, toileting, among the most common.
Of course, for that space effectively fulfill the purpose for which it was created is important that is right for your recipients, meanwhile, it will only be achieved if the professional in charge respects not only the motivation that triggered its development but also the useful space and physical conditions.
Because, of course, available space and specific conditions that this offer will also influence the final result.
In other words, there must be a harmony between the elements mentioned for the space created hundred percent enjoyment.
For its part, the architect, as called professional professionally running the realization of these spaces, you must make use of the knowledge acquired at the university on the architectural elements in order to create correct spaces. Without the provision and proper implementation of them, column, stairs, dome, arch, pillar, wall, porch and lintel, the spaces will be impossible to achieve.
Thus, the architect, of the total space available, establish priorities and the location of some of these elements, making the delimitation of environments, on the inside of the space, and moreover an external party.
And again we return to address the issue of needs, because the architect in the design of the space is charged must address as we said the demands of those who will move through the space.

latent › Definition and Meaning
Although Latin is a language dead because it is not spoken, it certainly still alive in the Spanish language. A significant part of our vocabulary has a Latin root, as with this concept that tells us one thing that is kept secret.A situation can be apparently normal and passes through a usual channels. However, it could be that there was something not visible in this situation. That something would be latent, hidden, with a look of inactivity. It is what happens with certain diseases, where those who suffer have no noticeable symptoms, but they have not yet been revealed, they have not yet been activated. In medicine we talk about the latency period referring to the time before the first symptoms of a condition (eg infectious processes).
The idea that something is latent means that a problem or unexpected element will appear soon. If there is a latent aspect it is because there is a waiting time of uncertainty. We say there is a latent problem when we sense that it is possible the emergence of a difficulty although superficially the situation is completely normal. Synonyms latent (underlying, hidden or concealed) give a hint of nuance in the meaning of this word. What we see and what we perceive also has the potential to present a new message or appearance. That brings the latent potential of an enigmatic element, like a threat that at any moment may appear. In fact, frequently it used the idea of a latent threat to indicate that a negative transformation is expected germinating and the threat will come true.
If latency is synonymous with hidden, the antonyms latent refer to something is clear, patent, is real. Thus there as a border between the external and obvious and, on the other hand, is hidden by remaining dormant. It shows that the notion of latent has a very particular meaning, something like a psychological mechanism that warns us that the outside of an action is not all real. If you suspect that someone cheats using us very correct and kind words it is because we perceive that conceals a hidden agenda. At that time we are capturing the latent although apparently not manifested.
Latent not always refers to problematic contexts in which a normally negative outcome incubated. Latent applies equally to natural phenomena (the latent heat is the energy necessary for an element to change phase from solid to liquid or from liquid to gas). The seeds also remain dormant when for some reason do not germinate.

victim › Definition and Meaning
The concept of victim used it extended way in our language to refer to a person who has been injured as a result of having suffered an accident or by direct and intentional attack by a third, he crashed his car or received a gunshot wound an assault, respectively.It is common practice that all persons who are subject to some type of crime, assault, kidnapping, rape, among others, is to call them victims, regardless of whether they come out unscathed thereof, that is, who have not had any attacks physical, not even a scratch.
For justice and the authorities concerned with the investigation of the case, they are victims and then be treated with all the regard the case as being deserves: medical, psychological, and of course those who correspond deal to find and apprehend the perpetrators of the act that hurt.
Meanwhile, in the case of a natural disaster that can not be avoided, nor in some cases can be expected, the victim will give the same attention.
The term is also used to denote a person who has died as a result of some of the above events or as many as possible.
Then, we 'll discuss victim when someone suffered an injury, damage, injury and when that someone died. My cousin was one of the victims of the fire in the building but is fine. The assault on the bakery left a toll of three fatal victims.
Anyway, always, especially when such situations are told through media communication, clear whether the victim only injured or died failing and that is why often clarifies talking about victims fatal.
And we also can find other recurring uses of the word, more informal and symbolic and given in the language colloquially to refer: a person who because of their lack of foresight or responsibility or others suffer a setback; and it is also said that individual victim often play the martyr, without being, to others.

amount › Definition and Meaning
An amount is the portion that there is something that can be measured and marked, for example, objects, people, money, among others. It should then be noted that there are issues, usually those abstract, like happiness or affection can not be measured.Meanwhile, the amount, the measured portion, may be considered, valued as excessive, normal, or low, depending on the context or thing in question.
By this we also realize that the amount will always be plausible increase or decrease made clear will be subject to the circumstances that surround.
With an example we will see clearer... if the dish that have served us to eat rebalsa food is because we have a huge amount of food, while on the contrary the food does not even cover the entire surface we can argue we have served sparingly.
Obviously it is depending on what is capable of being measured and the subjectivity of the individual, something may result in a large amount while else can give us the idea of a small amount.
The possibility of determining the amount of something, or be able to measure it, is very important because it allows us, for example in a purchase indicate the amount we need or want to purchase. If we go to the grocery store, for instance, we ask how much a fruit or vegetable that we know is what we eat or what we need. So we can charge two kilos three kilos, etc. or ask for three, four, five or eight blocks.
And this recently exposed in the situation paragraph above may move to other contexts... if we know that the department that we buy costs 100 thousand dollars, and we do not have that value, then we know we will need a greater amount of money to move and we raise the amount to purchase that department.
Another consideration that we can not ignore is that in certain situations the amounts must be accurate because they depend on the success of something, but then it can happen that in a given situation is not necessary that a priori the amounts required are respected.
