The concept of decline presents two recurring references in our language ...
Geography: slope or incline of a terrain or surface, natural or man-made
On the one hand and at the request of the field of geography is named slope To that slope or incline of a terrain or surface, which may be natural, that is, the result of natural movements of the earth, or in its defect may be the product of some work or human activity that has caused that inclination.
The escarpment or escarpment is one of the most recurrent geographical slopes in the geography of our planet and consists of a rock slope that cuts the terrain abruptly.
In other words, the escarpment is that jump in the terrain that interrupts the continuity of any landscape.
The slope in question is greater than 45 °, while it is common for it to assume the form of a cornice that will crown the slope in a long extension.
Regarding its origin, we must mention erosion.
Decline of a person, object or construction
And on the other hand, the term decline is a
synonymous with decadence.“That attitude defiant was the one that caused its decline.”
This sense of the term supposes a process of deterioration and contempt, which as a consequence generates that the conditions of an individual, group or institution, among other alternatives, get worse.
In other words, this notion of decline can be applied to people, groups, and objects.
Normally, when talking about the decline of a person, it is usually associated with the physical deterioration of him, to the loss of success in the activity that he had been developing or the bankruptcy that his assets have suffered materials.
For example, a disease or an accident that suddenly diminishes the abilities of a person and is then physically prevented from performing the routine that was carried out.
On the other hand, when a person loses his or her success for reasons, this will be reflected in his aspirations, in his economy and even in the power he had.
This state of affairs is common to negatively impact the person who suffers from it, that is, someone who has a degenerative disease You will begin to suffer a decline in your physique in every way, even on the mental plane, feeling depressed, not wanting to perform any kind of activity.
Also, the loss of status someone's quo, because his business did not prosper, produces the economic decline and also the spiritual decline of the person who suffers it.
In both cases it is common for the person who suffers these situations to fall into a state of depression.
And when decline concerns things, it may be the product of carelessness, that is, the corresponding maintenance to the thing, or material damage caused by the passage of time.
"The lack of painting in some sector of the house it is a clear indication of the decline that things can suffer. "
Building constructions and also furniture, with the passage of time and use, especially if this is undue and neglected, they wear out, thereby producing a natural decline in their presence Y appearance.
For example, it is necessary that when this situation is noticed, we proceed to repair the areas that have come unless and also to the beautification or recovery of those who suffered the wear and tear of the passage of weather.
On the other hand, this action is important to carry out since sometimes the deterioration of, for example, a building can generate landslides that are plausible to cause physical damage to the people who live in them, or who pass through the themselves.
Municipal governments must therefore carry out an exhaustive control in this regard, because of course, people's lives may be at risk.
