due to; via; from; through; because of; as a result of Explanation: It seems obvious to me, I may be wrong of course, that the thing is a spelling mistake for "par". Look in any reasonable dictionary and you will find " de par" and not "de part". Happy hunting from down under in the South Pacific Philip @ Toi Te Reo Services |

because of Explanation: The phrase is properly spelled "de par," and implies causality, which can be rendered in English in various idiomatic ways. In your sentence, I would suggest "Aflatoxin is present, because of grain imports...." (Note that in an import-export context, "cereales" is a false cognate. This writer isn't talking about Rice Krispies...!) Cheers (not Cheerios), HC |
