The Morphology Of Hmong
Hmong is a Miao–Yiao language spoken primarily in Southern China, Thailand and Laos.
According to Ethnologue.com, there are over 5.7 million people who speak the language all around
the world. Over 95,000 Hmong people have settled in the United States. Hmong is monosyllabic and
tonal language. This means that it consists primarily of one syllable words where the tone of a word
affects the meaning. The Hmong dialect is branched from the Chuanqiandian dialect into two
separate ones; known as 'Njua' green and 'Daw' white. Hmong is closely related to the Miao
language spoken in Southern China. However, it is not too known because various people living in
these areas gradually adopted phrases and words from other cultures, to produce a whole new way
of speaking.
Morphology
1. Hmong is an isolating language, where new words can be formed by compounding and
reduplication. Nouns show its case function through word order in the subject/object position, where
the adjectives and demonstratives follow the noun.
When it comes to nominative and accusative cases on nouns, they are not inflected for number, case
or gender. Therefore, the same word could be used to translate the singular, dual and plural pronouns
as shown in the table below. Examples 1 and 2 show the nominative and accusative cases on nouns
in a sentence. 1st person 2nd person 3rd person

What Is The Rule For Forming Questions Within The Simple...
Question 5 (10 points)
What is the rule for forming questions in the simple present and simple past in English?
Questions in the simple present can be formed in a couple of ways with questions lacking question
words such as "Do" and "Does" (examples: Do you read short stories? and Does Frank play the
violin?), and questions containing question words such as "What," "When," and "Where" (examples:
What do you type on your laptop?, When does your brother go to school, and Where do you visit
your relatives?). To form a question in the simple past, the auxiliary "did" and the infinitive form of
the verb are needed; some examples would include Did I play baseball?, Did you play baseball?, and
Did he play baseball?
Question 6 (10 points)
Give 3 situations in which it is appropriate to use the present perfect.
The present perfect tense pertains to talking about things in which a connection exists between the
past and the present. For example, She has written five songs. So she began writing songs at some
point in the past. Up to now, she has written five songs. She could write additional songs.
Accordingly, three situations in which it is appropriate to use the present perfect would include
unfinished actions, finished actions, and with "been" and "gone." The present perfect is appropriate
when referring to unfinished states, actions, or habits that began in the past and still apply to the
present. It typically is indicated for "how long" with the words "since" or "for" needed.

Tabloids: In very general terms, a tabloid paper is printed on A2–size paper at 380 mm by 300 mm
(15 by 11¾ inches), which is folded to A3, half the size of broadsheets. Tabloids are known as the
"popular" or "gutter" press, often perceived as sensationalist in contrast to broadsheets. All the
mass–circulation papers are tabloid. Examples: The Sun, The National Enquirer, The National
Ledger, The Star Magazine, New York Post, The Globe.
Berliner or Midi: 470 mm by 315 mm (18½ by 12¼ inches) used by European papers such as Le
Monde in France, La Stampa in Italy, El Pais in Spain and, since 12 September 2005, The Guardian
in the United Kingdom.
Analysis of newspapers involves a consideration of both headlines and reporting styles.
Analysis of Newspaper Headlines
A headline is the text at the top of a newspaper article, indicating the nature of the article below it.
Headlines are usually written in bold and in a much larger size than the article text. Front page
headlines are often in upper case so that they can be easily read by the passing potential customer.
Headlines in other parts of the paper are more commonly in sentence case though title case is often
used in the USA.
Headlines are generally written by copy editors, but may also be written by the writer, the page

THE ERRORS ANALYSIS OF USING THE PREPOSITION
MADE BY ENGLISH DEPARTEMENT'S STUDENTS
ACADEMIC YEAR 2009/2010
A. Background
Preposition is one of function words in English. It had introduced from elementary school till
university, one way to introduced and learned the preposition is by asking students to make a writing
paper. Sekolah Tinggi keguruan dan Ilmu pendidikan (STKIP) PGRI Banjarmasin have many
programs to increase their students writing ability. STKIP has two programs that can make their

(Quirk,1973:6.1)
Preposition includes to kinds of 'function words' which means "a word that doesn't belong to one of
the four major parts of speech in English (noun, verb, adjective, adverb). "Their purpose is not only
to express meaning but to relate other words to each other" (Hornby, 1975:7).
Prepositions are words normally placed before nouns or pronouns and can also be followed by verbs
but, except after but and except, the verb must be in the gerund form (Thomson, 1986: 91)
A preposition is a words that links a noun or a noun equivalent (e.g. a pronoun or a gerund) to
another word by expressing such relationships as location, direction, time, or purpose.
(Longman,...............).
Preposition are always followed by nouns (or pronouns).They are connective words that show the
relationship between the nouns following them and one of the basic sentence elements: subject,
verb, object, or complement. They usually indicate relationship such as position, place, direction,
time manner, agent, possession, and condition, between their objects and other parts of the sentence.
Prepositional phrases usually provide international asked for by the question words who, what,
where, when, why, how, and how long. The noun or pronoun following the preposition is it's object.
A pronoun used in this position is always an object pronoun: me, you, him, her, it, us, and them. The
preposition plus its object is called the preposition phrase. (Wishon,1980.288–289)

French Notes
The French imperfect (imparfait) is a descriptive past tense which indicates an ongoing state of
being or a repeated or incomplete action. The beginning and end of the state of being or action are
not indicated, and the imperfect is very often translated in English as "was" or "was ___–ing." The
imperfect can indicate any of the following: I. Habitual actions or states of being Quand j'étais petit,
nous allions à la plage chaque semaine. When I was young, we used to go to the beach every week.
L'année dernière, je travaillais avec mon père. I worked with my father last year. II. Physical and
emotional descriptions: time, weather, age, feelings Il était midi et il faisait beau. It was noon and
the weather was nice. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Incomplete vs Complete The imperfect describes an ongoing action with no specified completion:
J'allais en France. – I was going to France. Je visitais des monuments et prenais des photos. – I was
visiting monuments and taking pictures The passé composé expresses one or more events or actions
that began and ended in the past: Je suis allé en France. – I went to France. J'ai visité des
monuments et pris des photos. – I visited some monuments and took some pictures. 2. Habitual vs
Occasional The imperfect is used for habitual or repeated actions, something that happened an
uncounted number of times: Je voyageais en France tous les ans. – I traveled (used to travel) to
France every year. Je visitais souvent le Louvre. – I often visited the Louvre. The passé composé
talks about a single event, or an event that happened a specific number of times: J'ai voyagé en
France l'année dernière. – I traveled in France last year. J'ai visité le Louvre trois fois. – I've visited
the Louvre three times. 3. Ongoing vs New The imperfect describes a general physical or mental
state of being: J'avais peur des chiens. – I was afraid of dogs. J'aimais les épinards. – I used to like
spinach. The passé composé indicates a change in physical or mental state at a precise moment or
for an isolated cause: J'ai eu peur quand le chien a aboyé. – I was scared when the dog barked. Pour

Subject Verb Agreement: Agreement with Conjoined Subjects...
Agreement with conjoined subjects Agreement is complicated with subjects consisting of conjoined
NPs. In VSO
word order, the verb agrees only with the first conjunct. Which means that, the NP in
VSO is given a check feature of the first conjunct. Then the coordination template
checks for this feature. If it is found the whole conjunction is given the same features
as the first conjunct (Attia.2010).

In English , it has the agreement markers just in the present tense with the use of the third person
singular –s.
4– The use of the verb' be' is different in English but Arabic do not have the verb ' be' and do not use
it to be between the noun or pronoun subject . So some Arabic learners leave out the verb 'be' in the
progressive tense because it does not exist in Arabic.
5– In Arabic, there is a repetition of the object, that occurs when the object of the verb is moved to
the initial part of the sentence. Its original position after the verb gets occupied by an object pronoun
otherwise, the sentence will be inconvenient . In English , this doesn't occur so, the object is not
stated twice in the sentence, its original place is always after the verb but if it is moved to the initial–
position , its position will be empty.
Here are some of the areas where English and Arabic subject verb agreement differs. Agreement

Present Tense:
English Arabic The boy plays football . ‫القدم‬ ‫كرة‬ ‫الولد‬ ‫يلعب‬. Sahar plays with her sister. ‫أختها‬ ‫مع‬ ‫سحر‬ ‫تلعب‬.
Boys play at the street. ‫الشارع‬ ‫في‬ ‫األوالد‬ ‫يلعب‬. Girls play with each other. ‫بعضهم‬ ‫مع‬ ‫البنات‬ ‫تلعب‬. I play with

English Verb Forms Of English Grammar
According to ELT and Greebaum's The Oxford English Grammar (1996) English verb forms can be
systematized under two huge categories, each of them includes sub–categories of forms.
1.Inflected forms:
1.1. Base Form of verbs: In English grammar a regular English verb has only on principal part, from
which all following verb forms can be derived. This form is available in dictionary and is called
base form. For example, base form is paint, the inflected forms are: paint, paints, painted, painting.
Hence we can notice, that the base may be called the bare infinitive and the another common way to
referring to verbs is combination with –to + infinitive, for example, to paint (Greenbaum, S., 1996,
Pp.118–121)
1.2. Irregular verbs have three principal parts (because the simple past and past participle are
unpredictable). For instance, the verb write with the base form write, past form – wrote, and past
participle – written, the remaining forms (writes and writing) are derived regularly (Greenbaum, S.,
1996, Pp.126–128)
1.3. Also there are such verbs as do, say and have that additionally have irregular third person
singular present tense forms.
1.4. That is, the copular verb be is irregular (forms: be, am, is, are, was, were, been and being),
1.5. On the opposition modal verbs (can and must) are defective verbs and are being used only in
limited number of forms (Greenbaum, S., 1996, Pp.125–129).
Another important part of verb form analysis is grammatical base form or plain form

Writing Understandable
How to Write Understandably We've all been there. Somebody gives us a paper to peer–review and
it's practically written in Greek. Eager to demonstrate their mastery of English, the author includes
sentences like "The intentional obfuscation of one's premeditation leads invariably to the
unfortunate mystification of one's readership." What? (In plain English, this sentence means "Using
big words to hide your purpose will confuse your reader.") Spelling errors can hamper your reader's
ability to understand your writing, but so can overwriting your paper. Bloated sentences and big
words may lose your reader. If your grammar is too sophisticated for your intended audience, it will
backfire. It doesn't make you look smart to write like that. It ... Show more content on

Too many short sentences can make your essay sound choppy and disjointed, while too many long
sentences will make it hard to follow your points. There's no hard and fast rule for when a sentence
must be long and when it must be short, but if your problem is using choppy sentences then consider
combining them when you edit your paper. If they're too long, look for sentences you can split up.
Stay away from "zombie nouns." A "zombie noun," known formally as a nominalization, is an
adjective, verb, or adverb that has been turned into a noun by the addition of –ation, –ing, –ness, or
another suffix. Examples include "understanding," "creation," and "recklessness." They're called
zombies because according to linguist Helen Sword, "they cannibalize active verbs, suck the
lifeblood from adjectives and substitute abstract entites for human beings." These words aren't
always bad, but overusing them will quickly confuse your readers, because nominalizations don't
often have subjects attached to them. To cure a zombie epidemic, remove the nominalization and
add a subject. Helen Sword provides the following example:
The proliferation of nominalizations in a discursive formation may be an indication of a tendency

Parts of Speech
Parts of speech are the basic words that English has. They are what we use every day in our life.
There are a total of eight parts of speech but recently there has been another one added. The nine
parts of speech are: noun, verb, adjective, adverb, pronoun, conjunction, preposition, and
interjection. It is important to be able to recognize and identify the different types of words in
English, so that you can understand grammar explanations and use the right word form in the right
place in any situation. A noun is a person, place, or thing. It is also called a naming word. There are
different types of nouns as well. There are count nouns, mass nouns, collective nouns, abstract
nouns, and collective nouns. Count nouns are anything that can be counted like: five baseballs, a
few glass bowls, or a dozen eggs. A mass noun is something that can't be counted such as water, air,
and blood. A collective noun is a noun that can take a singular form but are composed of more than
one individual person or items like a jury, team, class, or a herd. An abstract noun is a noun with the
kind of word that is not tangible like warmth, justice, grief, or peace. A collective noun is a noun
that help with words that can be singular or plural. A verb is a word that describes an action or a
state of being something. There are four verb forms. There is a base form, past form, present
participle, and a past participle.

For every human, language is one important things to communicate to each other. Because language
is one media to make one relationship and know the other people by the communication.
There are many language in the world. One of that is English as international language. English is
the one of international language because of almost the people in the world know English as a
second language after their mother language.
English have rules to make communication better in usage. Better in oral and writing. We can say
the rules as the grammar. Grammar is the rules in the English. Gerund is one of part in grammar. 1.2

e) The object of reflexive (with intransitive)
She is in the habit of oversleeping herself = habit alone slept late (slept too long)
2.2.3 Gerunds with genitive (Possession)
Noun or pronoun, provided that indicates a person or animal, must be in the genitive case (genitive
case), when the noun or pronoun is placed in front of the gerund.
He was displeased at the ice cream vendor 's not coming
I am pleased at your coming .
For example:
a) using gerund is preceded by a noun or pronoun that follows genitive this sometimes happens:
This was a creative work of my doing = This is the creative work I 'm doing. my – genitive pronoun
doing – gerund
That building was of an architect 's designing = The building was designed by the architect. architect
's – genitive noun designing – gerund
b) Sometimes the letter "a" is placed in front of the gerund in the sense of the preposition. Here "a"
is an alteration or abbreviation of the preposition on:
The man has gone a hunting .
He has gone a–fishing .
2.2.4 Who Owns the–ing form
Besides gerund, present participle is still there and the original noun, we must distinguish clearly.
For example:
a) A sleeping–carriage (= a carriage used for sleeping) = train / wagon (to) sleep.
Sleeping is a gerund here.
b) A sleeping child (= a Child That Is sleeping) = a sleeping child.

1、The Definition and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
As a result, the family of onomatopoeia has been getting larger and larger. At that time, language
just took shape. And the language had not gone as far as to be used to record everything they kept in
mind. When writing became more and more important, to record these onomatopoeia words is
simple and effective. The rapid development of papermaking, writing and phonetics also made it
possible for our ancestors to pass their imitation knowledge to the next generation.
2、The Function of Onomatopoeia The function of onomatopoeia is changing and different. In the
early hunting time, the application of onomatopoeia is to communicate with each other by simulate
the sound of the animals. This is effective to express the sound. Another significant function is
reflected in the growing of a child. When the child is too young to speak, they are clever enough to
imitate the sound of other things. It is also an effective way of expressing what they want or what
they hear. At the same time, their parents can easily understand what they want to express. This kind
of action can help them form a cognitive knowledge of their surroundings as well as promote the
development of their brain. Meantime, they can use this innate skill to learn a language from their
parents. In modern times, the first function doesn 't exist any more. New applications come into

Englishman A. Tayler formed the following requests to the translation in his book "The principles of
the translation": 1. The translation should transfer the ideas of the original completely; 2. The style
and way of the exposition should be the same as in the original; 3. The translation should be read
with the same easiness as the original works. The translation is the multifaceted phenomenon and
some aspects of it can be the subjects of the research of different sciences. In the frames of the
science of translation psychological, literature critical, ethnographical and other points of translation

Common Characteristics And Similarities Between Dari And...
Abstract
Dari is the language that my paper will discuss in detail.This language is spoken in Afghanistan by 5
million people. In this paper I will discuss some characteristics of the frequency adverbs. I will show
examples to prove how these adverbs move in the sentences freely and where they occur. What was
interesting also is that I found similarities between Dari and English. Frequency adverbs in Dari
have common characteristics with English. Both languagesallow adverbs to move in different
position.

Aksar
2. Aksarwagt: in this case, people addsuffixwagt which means (time) to refer to a specific time.
It is not important to add or delete the suffix wagt. If it is added it will not change themeaning in a
speech it only tells what is the time in a very specific way. If it is deleted people will know that you
are talking about time but not in certainty.
4. Conclusion :
– In Dari, adverbs like (Frequently, always, sometimes and usually) occurs in 3 positions: before
verb, after verb and at the begging of a sentence.
– Adverb like usually has 2 ways in written form: aksar – before verb and aksarwagt – if the position
is changed.
– Adjectives can be described as adverbs by adding the prefix ba, and they will always occur before
verbs.
To conclude this paper, Dari is an interesting and simple language. Frequency adverbs are
interesting because they describe the time of any event. Their Frequency adverbs are flexible and
they move easily in the sentences. They occur in the beginning of the sentence, before or after a
verb. They do not make any changes to the meaning.

I can't find the ketchup and mayonnaise. Where can I find them? "The" is an article. The is used
when a noun or pronoun is specific, special, or more than one, and it is placed before the noun or
pronoun. In this sentence the article "the" is placed before the noun, "condiments. So you know the
person is looking specifically for condiments, and there is an expressed interest in more than one
condiment. Condiments is a noun. It means things which are used to flavor food, like ketchup and
mayonnaise. The last word we have to look at is the word, "like." "Like" in this sentence is used as a
preposition. It means, similar, or almost the same. "Like" in this sentence tells you the person may
not be looking for ketchup or mayonnaise, but for condiments in general, and used ketchup and
mayonnaise as an example to explain what is meant by the word condiments. I didn't explain
pronouns, in this little essay. "I" and "them" are pronouns. So I will write briefly about them here.
"Them" is the pronoun which I use in place of the noun, "words" and the "pronoun." "I" is the
pronoun used in this essay in place of my name. Oh, and always put a capital letter to start the first

Reflective Reflection In English
Throughout this course, I have grown as a writer and learned many things I was previously unaware
of. What I pictured English 101 to entail is nothing compared to what I experienced. Going into this
class, I was thinking in the most negative tone: "There is no way I am going to be able to write four
full pages," "There is not enough time to write papers," "The work load is overwhelming," "There is
only four summarize grades." However, these thoughts quickly became reversed as the year
progressed as I was pushed to limits I did not even know I had. As I began writing, I became more
aware of my strengths and weakness, enjoyments and frustrations, and future plans and goals. After
exploring all papers, there are strengths and weaknesses prevalent throughout. It is important to
know these qualities and capacities in order to leverage certain strengths and improve specific
weaknesses. Using this knowledge, I came up with one overall weaknesses throughout my writing
that show up in multiple instances. One of them would be subject–verb agreement. Subjects and
verbs must agree with one another in number (singular or plural). Thus, if a subject is singular, its
verb must also be singular; if a subject is plural, its verb must also be plural. In the present tense,
nouns and verbs form plurals in opposite ways: nouns add an s to the singular form; verbs remove
the s from the singular form. For example, talking about "A Good Man is Hard to Find" in paper

A Verb Of The Verb
Introduction :
A denominal verb is a grammatical form that refers to an element which originates as a noun but is
used in someway in sentence as a verb. A denominal verb is much distinct than other typical verbs
that are originally born functioning as verbs, i.e, they historically used to be nouns before they
underwent some operations that contributed in the transformation of their lexical category. The
following example illustrates this notion :
1) a. He spent the summer in liverpool
b. He summered in liverpool.
Sentence (1a) involoves two essential parts of our analysis. It is comopsed of a verb (to spend ) and
the noun (summer ) , while sentence (2b) includes one essential element which is the verb ( to
summer ) . thus , the reader can notice that the meaning remains the same even though the number
of elements that form sentence (2b) is reduced . The change in the form of the noun ( summer) into a
verb (to summer) can be seen as a result of a grammatical function changing process that will be
much discussed in chapter 3.Transforation rules took to affect the argument noun (summer) and
merge with another head to move from the object position to the predicate position (Baker 1988) .
This chapter will shed lights on how government–binding theory studied this phenomenon. The
chapter is organized as follows . Section 1 is an overview of denominal verbs in English. Section 2

Give Two Examples Of Inflection In The English Language
Activity 1 – Mandatory
After reading the suggested sources of information, do the following task.
Answer the following using your own words:
1. What is inflection? How does it work? Give two examples of inflection in the English language.
Do not use examples from the materials you read.
It is a word formation process consisting in adding a "bound morpheme" to a word without changing
its main meaning.
It takes places because of syntactic needs, to illustrate let us take the following cases:
Ann worked yesterday.
Ann works very hard.
In both cases, we can note that there is a syntactic relation between the words of each sentence with
the verb "work", that is why the inflectional morphemes "–ed" and "–s" must be added. In the first
example we must attach the inflection (–ed) because of "yesterday", and in the second because of
"Ann" (third person). ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In spite of the fact that there are only eight inflectional morphemes, this process is very productive
since it can be applied to a wide range of words:
Nouns, to form possessives and plurals (Marco´s books).
Verbs, to form the present tense of the third person in singular, the progressive tenses, the past tense
and the past participle of some verbs (takes, walked, taking, taken).
Adjectives, to form comparatives and superlatives (quicker, quickest)
2. What is derivation? How does it work? Give two examples of derivation in the English language.
Do not use examples from the materials you read.
It is another morphological process consisting in attaching either a prefix or a suffix to a word; yet,
this attachment does change the meaning of the original word. In derivation, the relation involved
only has effect within the word. For instance

American Sign Language ( Asl )
Classifiers are handshapes we use in American sign language (ASL) to show the movement,
placement, orientation, size, and shape of a noun. Since ASL is a rule–governed language when
using classifiers you must first identify the noun, then you can use the classifier to show how the
object moves or is placed in relationship to other objects (Aron). American sign language uses eight
different kinds of classifiers for specific categories.
Since classifiers cover a wide variety of uses there are several categories that a classifier can be used
for, as a Descriptive classifier (DCL) which is used for describing an object or a person. The story
"TIMBER" the signer describes a lumberjack's appearance. The signer describes the lumberjacks'
large muscles and large chest; he describes the plaid shirt the lumberjack is wearing as well.
Locative Classifiers (LCL) are representing an object in a specific place and sometimes movement.
The handshape is given followed by spatial or locative information. In the story "TIMBER" the
signer uses several Locative classifiers, one of them is when he shows the forest being in front of the
lumberjack.
Another classifier is the Semantic Classifier (SCL) that represents a category of nouns such as a
vehicle or a person. The handshape is given then information about specific movement. In the story
"TIMBER" the signer uses the semantic classifier to show a person walking in the woods as well as
a tree about to fall. Plural Classifiers (PCL) indicates

Monica Ferrell a renowned poet and novelist has written works such as, Of the Irresoubleness of
Diamonds, Harmless as Recalled by a Fairy Tale, Gerburt des Monica–kinds and Anatomy which
employ grammatical issues throughout them. She uses attributive adjectives, non–finite verb strings,
active voice and the known–new contract to give an in–depth analysis of her poems which she uses
pathos to convey her emotions. By incorporating these grammatical issues into her work, Ferrell
intends to develop a clear and sharp image to ignite the imagination of her readers. In this semester
project, I will present various examples where Ferrell integrates these grammatical concepts and
analyze how they contribute to the overall tone and effectiveness of the poem. Ferrell was born in
New Delhi. She earned her BA from Harvard University and MFA from Columbia University

let something that wants to come into being do so–poetry as uncovering, rather than invention or

Gerburt Des Monicakinds Poem Analysis
Grammar can be defined as a linguistic system that exists in the mind of a speaker of a language, a
written description of a language, and an abstract notation of an ideal set of rules (of correct or
proper grammar) which can be encoded in a handbook (Studies in English Grammar Handbook,
pg.7). Monica Ferrell's, "Of the Irresoubleness of Diamonds," "Harmless, As Recalled by a Fairy
Tale," "Gerburt des Monicakinds," and "Beautiful Funeral" each employ four different grammatical
issues one of them being the known–new contract. By incorporating these grammatical issues into
her work, Ferrell intends to develop a clear and sharp image to ignite the imagination of her readers.
The poems "Of the Irresoubleness of Diamonds," "Harmless, As Recalled by a Fairy Tale," "Gerburt

5. Scope of Use
5.1. Advantages
India is a country with a large population well versed with vernacular languages but not fluent in
English. A Marathi to English translation system will be helpful to the Marathi speaking population
who need to converse in English. Lot of documents, scripts and scriptures in Marathi also need to be
translated to English and this process is manual. Marathi to English translation system will help to
automate this process and help reduce manual work related to translation.
5.2. Limitations
Considering the number of rules [2] to be included in the system, it is not possible to achieve perfect
translations for each and every sentence. There might be some disambiguation present in some
sentence translations. It is also language specific and cannot be used for translation of any other
language pair. It is also limited to sentences in the domain of the project and cannot be used for

know more about the gerund. There are several reasons for it: 1)1 want know more about the

The English verbs include four forms distinctly differing one another within the general verb
system: the infinitive, the present participle, the past participle and the gerund. As natural results of
its origin and development the gerund has nominal and verbal properties. The nominal characteristic
of the gerund are followed: The gerund can be perform the functions of subject, predicative, object,
adverbial modifier, and attribute. I will describe all of them. The Gerund is the non–finite form of
the verb which combines the properties of the verb with those of the noun. The gerund serves as the
verbal name of a process, but its substantive quality is more strongly pronounced than that of the
infinitive. Namely, as different from the infinitive, and
similar to the noun, the gerund can be modified by a noun in the possessive case or its pronominal
equivalents (expressing the subject of the verbal process), and it can be used with prepositions.
Since the gerund is an abstract name of the process denoted by the verbal lexeme, a question might

Questions On The Final Exam

the following topics (about 100–300 words each). Provide examples to illustrate your discussion. a.
Aspect: Aspect grammatical category of verbs denotes the flow of time related to the event they
express. Unlike tense that is semantically rather related to the event in time, aspect is about time
moving through the event (Riemer 314). The difference between, for example, "I walked" and "I
was walking" is in our view of the two events, the first as an event that happened in a certain point
in the past while the second viewed with an emphasis on the temporal sense of the event over which
it happened. Distinctions can be made between perfective and imperfective aspect. The marking of
the two and appearance is different among languages. For example, Mandarin Chinese offers two
perfective markers; le and guo. However, in English, perfective aspect forms are those verbs in the
simple form like read, ate, walk... and imperfective forms are progressive forms such as am walking,
was reading, were eating... It is crucial to understand that the completion or duration of the event
does not distinguish between perfective and imperfective aspect because both can be expressed by
either form. For, example, the use of struggled in the sentence Ali struggled during his fourth round
clearly shows that the perfective form can be used to express an event that happened over a period
of time. there is also

The General Translation Method During The Translation Of...
The general translation method followed during the translation process was a balanced method. In
general words, an interpretative and communicative method, where the ST meaning, function, genre
and effect on the reader are kept but it is absolutely comprehensible for the TT reader. But if we
analyze closely, different styles have been used into several situations, with the balanced one as a
result.
On the one hand, it has to be pointed the literal method, mostly used with different verb tenses in
general. As Lathey (2012) comments on her article about the translation of children literature, "role
of tense systems in narrative for children may well reveal cultural differences". In the case of
Spanish and English, both use past tense for narration, while German or French have an historic
present. In other words, verb tenses have been translated using a literal method, with the closest
Spanish verb equivalent. However, some verb tenses are not 100% literal translatable from English
to Spanish. That is when I had a problem. For example, the –ing form in English is more common
than the gerund in Spanish (Thinking it was she... = Al pensar que era ella/ Pensando que era
ella.).This has been sometimes an issue, because even if in a literal translation that would be the
correct form, is not normative or idiomatic in Spanish. In short, the general base of the tense
(present, past and future) are translated in a literal way, but when the aspect of the verb is involved,

Analysis Of The Article ' Heart Of Darkness ' Essay
determiner: Words such as "a/an," "the," "some," and "my" are determiners, which are utilized to
"determine" what nouns mean. "A/an" and "the" can be considered to be the most significant
determiners. "A/an" and "the" also are known as articles. A more comprehensive list of determiners
would include "any," "each," "every," "no," "his," "this/that," "these/those," "his," "her," "its,"
"your," "our," and "their." A concept basic to articles is countability, and they pose difficult
challenges for L2 learners regarding, for example, which nouns are countable or uncountable in
English since countability, while very important, can be difficult to quantify. An example regarding
the use of the article would be the novel Heart of Darkness. Not having an article at the beginning of
this title appears to be more a matter of style than grammar, and also is a characteristic of headlines,
titles, and names. So while conventionally a countable noun (such as heart) needs a determiner (the,
a, this, or my), not applying this rule could be confusing to an L2 learner expecting an article.
2. perfective: In English, there are two aspects (see next entry for a definition of "aspect")–perfect
(also called perfective) and continuous (also termed progressive). The perfect aspect establishes a
connection between two periods of time while the continuous aspect typically connotes that an

Word To Boast By Greek Language Analysis
I chose the word "to save" here because it fits the context well, and salvation is best represented by
this English word. To "be made" does not fit the context, and to "be healed" does not encompass the
full extent of what Christ is doing to us, which is saving us from deserved eternal torment. Defining
this word as "to save" is the best definition because it fully encompasses the salvation that Christ
gives to people, while also correctly aligning itself to the intended meaning for the Ephesian
audience.

When you talk to the laity, you must understand that they are not going to understand very much
Greek (if any at all), so it is rarely fruitful to bring in any Greek terminology except for the Greek
word itself. For example, if I tell my audience that the Greek word σεσῳσμένοι is a Perfect
Participle Passive verb, some of them might think I am speaking in tongues. It is important to
actually communicate with the audience, so in my application of the text, I would emphasize how
salvation itself is a gift of God, as this is an important point that Paul makes. I would also tell them
about how they are continually in the process of being saved, and show them from my own study, in
an understandable way, how Christians continually work out their salvation. I would assure my
congregation that their salvation is secure in Christ, while also affirming the meaning of Paul's
words in a way that kindles their love for Christ. This text is ready–made for the pulpit, and I feel

Using Pen And Paper Becoming A Classroom Of Diverse...
As each semester passes, I am growing in how to assess my students, and use it to build on future
more effective lesson plans that corporate a classroom of diverse students that benefits all learners. I
learned in my methods and severe courses that my lesson plans need to focus on one or two items
only. This can be achieved by concentrating, and being specific in the scope and goal of what you
want the students to achieve. I am now comfortable in knowing there are multiple ways of
confirming understanding of the lesson taught without using pen and paper or a worksheet all the
time. Objects, games, conversation, drawings, one–on–one, self–guided or independent assigned
tasks, interactions, acting, listening, teamwork or working with a buddy are only a few ways to
determine knowledge, knowledge gained, and capability. I learned that the pen and paper becomes
necessary with an exit ticket, when a document is needed to confirm the success of the learners. I
learned what an exit ticket was and how to utilize them in severe and methods. An exit ticket is a
good way to document the learner's success while during the lesson, the students can enjoy the
hands–on activities that enable them to be a successful learner without worksheets or test or even
realizing they are learning. Students were able to sculpt out an action verb using play dough. They
created animals jumping, swimming or running. They created them playing basket ball or skydiving,

Teaching A Foreign Language Has Never Been Easy
Assignments #3 Morphology/ Syntax
Learning a foreign language has never been easy; one reason is the language system of each country
varies vastly. Question structuring is one system that requires investigation in order to fully learn the
technique of asking questions. Turkish and Polish are two countries that contrast immensely in
question formation. This essay will first investigate the question forming system in these two
countries in asking yes/ no questions, and other regular questions. Following after is a comparison
between the two languages.
Polish follows the word order of subject + verb + object (Pimsleur Approach, n.d.). When asking
questions, subject is usually replaced by a question word while the verb is changed to the ... Show

Attaching a Wh–question word at the beginning of the sentence is one other way to form a question.
Wh– questions words in Polish include "Co", "kto", "dlaczego", "gdzie" and "jak", which are
"where", who", "why", "where" and how" in English. ("Polish Questions", n.d.)
Meanwhile, Tukish follows the rule of Subject + Object +Verb (Yıldız, Solak, Görgün & Ehsani,
n.d.). Yes/ no questions are formed by adding the suffix,"–mi", at the end of the sentence. Although
"–mi" is inserted as a question word, it is considered as a suffix because it has to comply with the
vowel harmony rule in regulating the relationship between suffixes and vowels. An example is "bu
bir kitap mi?", which means "Is this a book?" in English (Turkish Class, n.d.). As a free morpheme,
"–mi" can be modified depending on the occasion. For instance, "–mi" belongs to present tense,
while "miydim" is in past tense (Manisa Turkish, 2014). Thus "–mi" is an inflectional affixation that
changes form in different contexts. Inserting "değil mi" at the end of the sentence is another way to
ask a yes/ no question. "Değil mi", "not" in English, is also an inflectional affixation that adds
grammatical information to the question. For other questions types, a question word can be placed
on the word/ phrase of the answer to form a question. The following rules can better explain this.

The Is A Disorder Diagnosed When Oral Language
SLI is a disorder diagnosed when oral language lags behind other areas of development for no
apparent reason (Bishop & Snowling, 2004). Many studies report that SLI affects a relatively large
percentage of the child population, around 5%– 10%, (McArthur et al., 2000). Furthermore,
McArthur et al. (2000) showed that more than 50% of children with dyslexia also meet the criteria
for SLI (see also Marshall, Harcourt–Brown, Ramus & Van der Lely, 2009 and McArthur &
Hogben, 2001). Bishop and Snowling (2004) claim that diagnostic criteria for SLI are vague. This is
153
because children with SLI display significant difficulties with one or more linguistic domains, such
as phonology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics. In fact, the defining criterion states that a child has
SLI if their difficulties cannot be explained by deficits in other aspects of cognition that are linked to
language acquisition, such as intelligence, hearing, oral–motor skills and language exposure
(Dollaghan, 2008), but does not specifically define any subfield of linguistics as crucial for the
discrimination.
5. 4. 2 SLI and morphology
Friedmann & Novogrodsky (2006) present a detailed discussion of variability in SLI. The authors
distinguish between phonological–SLI, syntactic–SLI, semantic– SLI and pragmatic–SLI. In their
study, the authors tested children with SLI using tapping tasks in dissociated form on syntax,
semantics, phonology or pragmatics. They observed that children's difficulties can be

The Morphology Of Hmong

  • 1. The Morphology Of Hmong Hmong is a Miao–Yiao language spoken primarily in Southern China, Thailand and Laos. According to Ethnologue.com, there are over 5.7 million people who speak the language all around the world. Over 95,000 Hmong people have settled in the United States. Hmong is monosyllabic and tonal language. This means that it consists primarily of one syllable words where the tone of a word affects the meaning. The Hmong dialect is branched from the Chuanqiandian dialect into two separate ones; known as 'Njua' green and 'Daw' white. Hmong is closely related to the Miao language spoken in Southern China. However, it is not too known because various people living in these areas gradually adopted phrases and words from other cultures, to produce a whole new way of speaking. Morphology 1. Hmong is an isolating language, where new words can be formed by compounding and reduplication. Nouns show its case function through word order in the subject/object position, where the adjectives and demonstratives follow the noun. When it comes to nominative and accusative cases on nouns, they are not inflected for number, case or gender. Therefore, the same word could be used to translate the singular, dual and plural pronouns as shown in the table below. Examples 1 and 2 show the nominative and accusative cases on nouns in a sentence. 1st person 2nd person 3rd person Singular Kuv Koj Nws Duo (two) Wb Neb Nkawv Plural (more than two) Peb Nej Lawv (plural) (1) Koj noj mov. 2SG eat ...

Questions in the simple present can be formed in a couple of ways with questions lacking question words such as "Do" and "Does" (examples: Do you read short stories? and Does Frank play the violin?), and questions containing question words such as "What," "When," and "Where" (examples: What do you type on your laptop?, When does your brother go to school, and Where do you visit your relatives?). To form a question in the simple past, the auxiliary "did" and the infinitive form of the verb are needed; some examples would include Did I play baseball?, Did you play baseball?, and Did he play baseball? Question 6 (10 points) Give 3 situations in which it is appropriate to use the present perfect. The present perfect tense pertains to talking about things in which a connection exists between the past and the present. For example, She has written five songs. So she began writing songs at some point in the past. Up to now, she has written five songs. She could write additional songs. Accordingly, three situations in which it is appropriate to use the present perfect would include unfinished actions, finished actions, and with "been" and "gone." The present perfect is appropriate when referring to unfinished states, actions, or habits that began in the past and still apply to the present. It typically is indicated for "how long" with the words "since" or "for" needed. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The beginning and end of the state of being or action are not indicated, and the imperfect is very often translated in English as "was" or "was ___–ing."

When I was young, we used to go to the beach every week. L'année dernière, je travaillais avec mon père. I worked with my father last year. II.

  • 14. Subject Verb Agreement: Agreement with Conjoined Subjects... Agreement with conjoined subjects Agreement is complicated with subjects consisting of conjoined NPs. In VSO word order, the verb agrees only with the first conjunct. Which means that, the NP in VSO is given a check feature of the first conjunct. Then the coordination template checks for this feature. If it is found the whole conjunction is given the same features as the first conjunct (Attia.2010). ‫الرسالة‬ ‫والولد‬ ‫البنت‬ ‫كتبت‬ Katabat albintu w–alwaladu al–risalta Wrote.fem.sg.3 the–girl.fem.sg and–the–boy.masc.sg the –letter On the other hand in sentences with SVO word order, the verb agrees with the whole conjoined ...

In English , it has the agreement markers just in the present tense with the use of the third person singular –s. 4– The use of the verb' be' is different in English but Arabic do not have the verb ' be' and do not use it to be between the noun or pronoun subject . So some Arabic learners leave out the verb 'be' in the progressive tense because it does not exist in Arabic. 5– In Arabic, there is a repetition of the object, that occurs when the object of the verb is moved to the initial part of the sentence. Its original position after the verb gets occupied by an object pronoun otherwise, the sentence will be inconvenient . In English , this doesn't occur so, the object is not stated twice in the sentence, its original place is always after the verb but if it is moved to the initial– position , its position will be empty. Here are some of the areas where English and Arabic subject verb agreement differs. Agreement with Person: Present Tense: English Arabic The boy plays football . ‫القدم‬ ‫كرة‬ ‫الولد‬ ‫يلعب‬. Sahar plays with her sister. ‫أختها‬ ‫مع‬ ‫سحر‬ ‫تلعب‬. Boys play at the street. ‫الشارع‬ ‫في‬ ‫األوالد‬ ‫يلعب‬. Girls play with each other. ‫بعضهم‬ ‫مع‬ ‫البنات‬ ‫تلعب‬.

  • 17. English Verb Forms Of English Grammar According to ELT and Greebaum's The Oxford English Grammar (1996) English verb forms can be systematized under two huge categories, each of them includes sub–categories of forms. 1.Inflected forms: 1.1. Base Form of verbs: In English grammar a regular English verb has only on principal part, from which all following verb forms can be derived. This form is available in dictionary and is called base form. For example, base form is paint, the inflected forms are: paint, paints, painted, painting. Hence we can notice, that the base may be called the bare infinitive and the another common way to referring to verbs is combination with –to + infinitive, for example, to paint (Greenbaum, S., 1996, Pp.118–121) 1.2. Irregular verbs have three principal parts (because the simple past and past participle are unpredictable). For instance, the verb write with the base form write, past form – wrote, and past participle – written, the remaining forms (writes and writing) are derived regularly (Greenbaum, S., 1996, Pp.126–128) 1.3. Also there are such verbs as do, say and have that additionally have irregular third person singular present tense forms. 1.4. That is, the copular verb be is irregular (forms: be, am, is, are, was, were, been and being), 1.5. On the opposition modal verbs (can and must) are defective verbs and are being used only in limited number of forms (Greenbaum, S., 1996, Pp.125–129).

Too many short sentences can make your essay sound choppy and disjointed, while too many long sentences will make it hard to follow your points. There's no hard and fast rule for when a sentence must be long and when it must be short, but if your problem is using choppy sentences then consider combining them when you edit your paper. If they're too long, look for sentences you can split up. Stay away from "zombie nouns." A "zombie noun," known formally as a nominalization, is an adjective, verb, or adverb that has been turned into a noun by the addition of –ation, –ing, –ness, or another suffix. Examples include "understanding," "creation," and "recklessness." They're called zombies because according to linguist Helen Sword, "they cannibalize active verbs, suck the lifeblood from adjectives and substitute abstract entites for human beings." These words aren't always bad, but overusing them will quickly confuse your readers, because nominalizations don't often have subjects attached to them. To cure a zombie epidemic, remove the nominalization and add a subject. Helen Sword provides the following example: The proliferation of nominalizations in a discursive formation may be an indication of a tendency toward pomposity and ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

The nine parts of speech are: noun, verb, adjective, adverb, pronoun, conjunction, preposition, and interjection. It is important to be able to recognize and identify the different types of words in English, so that you can understand grammar explanations and use the right word form in the right place in any situation. A noun is a person, place, or thing. It is also called a naming word. There are different types of nouns as well. There are count nouns, mass nouns, collective nouns, abstract nouns, and collective nouns. Count nouns are anything that can be counted like: five baseballs, a few glass bowls, or a dozen eggs. A mass noun is something that can't be counted such as water, air, and blood. A collective noun is a noun that can take a singular form but are composed of more than one individual person or items like a jury, team, class, or a herd.

Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... As a result, the family of onomatopoeia has been getting larger and larger. At that time, language just took shape. And the language had not gone as far as to be used to record everything they kept in mind. When writing became more and more important, to record these onomatopoeia words is simple and effective. The rapid development of papermaking, writing and phonetics also made it possible for our ancestors to pass their imitation knowledge to the next generation. 2、The Function of Onomatopoeia The function of onomatopoeia is changing and different. In the early hunting time, the application of onomatopoeia is to communicate with each other by simulate the sound of the animals. This is effective to express the sound. Another significant function is reflected in the growing of a child. When the child is too young to speak, they are clever enough to imitate the sound of other things. It is also an effective way of expressing what they want or what they hear. At the same time, their parents can easily understand what they want to express. This kind of action can help them form a cognitive knowledge of their surroundings as well as promote the development of their brain. Meantime, they can use this innate skill to learn a language from their parents. In modern times, the first function doesn 't exist any more.

If it is added it will not change themeaning in a speech it only tells what is the time in a very specific way. If it is deleted people will know that you are talking about time but not in certainty. 4. Conclusion : – In Dari, adverbs like (Frequently, always, sometimes and usually) occurs in 3 positions: before verb, after verb and at the begging of a sentence. – Adverb like usually has 2 ways in written form: aksar – before verb and aksarwagt – if the position is changed. – Adjectives can be described as adverbs by adding the prefix ba, and they will always occur before verbs. To conclude this paper, Dari is an interesting and simple language. Frequency adverbs are interesting because they describe the time of any event. Their Frequency adverbs are flexible and they move easily in the sentences. They occur in the beginning of the sentence, before or after a verb. They do not make any changes to the meaning.

It would sound like I know what I'm saying, and it would be easier to understand me. This is why for me to learn English I have to know the mechanics, or rules of grammar so I can speak properly.

Where can I find them? "The" is an article. The is used when a noun or pronoun is specific, special, or more than one, and it is placed before the noun or pronoun. In this sentence the article "the" is placed before the noun, "condiments. So you know the person is looking specifically for condiments, and there is an expressed interest in more than one condiment. Condiments is a noun. It means things which are used to flavor food, like ketchup and mayonnaise. The last word we have to look at is the word, "like." "Like" in this sentence is used as a preposition. It means, similar, or almost the same. "Like" in this sentence tells you the person may not be looking for ketchup or mayonnaise, but for condiments in general, and used ketchup and mayonnaise as an example to explain what is meant by the word condiments.

What I pictured English 101 to entail is nothing compared to what I experienced. Going into this class, I was thinking in the most negative tone: "There is no way I am going to be able to write four full pages," "There is not enough time to write papers," "The work load is overwhelming," "There is only four summarize grades." However, these thoughts quickly became reversed as the year progressed as I was pushed to limits I did not even know I had. As I began writing, I became more aware of my strengths and weakness, enjoyments and frustrations, and future plans and goals. After exploring all papers, there are strengths and weaknesses prevalent throughout. It is important to know these qualities and capacities in order to leverage certain strengths and improve specific weaknesses. Using this knowledge, I came up with one overall weaknesses throughout my writing that show up in multiple instances. One of them would be subject–verb agreement. Subjects and verbs must agree with one another in number (singular or plural). Thus, if a subject is singular, its verb must also be singular; if a subject is plural, its verb must also be plural. In the present tense, nouns and verbs form plurals in opposite ways: nouns add an s to the singular form; verbs remove the s from the singular form.

  • 42. A Verb Of The Verb Introduction : A denominal verb is a grammatical form that refers to an element which originates as a noun but is used in someway in sentence as a verb. A denominal verb is much distinct than other typical verbs that are originally born functioning as verbs, i.e, they historically used to be nouns before they underwent some operations that contributed in the transformation of their lexical category. The following example illustrates this notion : 1) a. He spent the summer in liverpool b. He summered in liverpool. Sentence (1a) involoves two essential parts of our analysis. It is comopsed of a verb (to spend ) and the noun (summer ) , while sentence (2b) includes one essential element which is the verb ( to summer ) . thus , the reader can notice that the meaning remains the same even though the number of elements that form sentence (2b) is reduced . The change in the form of the noun ( summer) into a verb (to summer) can be seen as a result of a grammatical function changing process that will be much discussed in chapter 3.Transforation rules took to affect the argument noun (summer) and merge with another head to move from the object position to the predicate position (Baker 1988) .

  • 51. American Sign Language ( Asl ) Classifiers are handshapes we use in American sign language (ASL) to show the movement, placement, orientation, size, and shape of a noun. Since ASL is a rule–governed language when using classifiers you must first identify the noun, then you can use the classifier to show how the object moves or is placed in relationship to other objects (Aron). American sign language uses eight different kinds of classifiers for specific categories. Since classifiers cover a wide variety of uses there are several categories that a classifier can be used for, as a Descriptive classifier (DCL) which is used for describing an object or a person. The story "TIMBER" the signer describes a lumberjack's appearance. The signer describes the lumberjacks' large muscles and large chest; he describes the plaid shirt the lumberjack is wearing as well.

Monica Ferrell a renowned poet and novelist has written works such as, Of the Irresoubleness of Diamonds, Harmless as Recalled by a Fairy Tale, Gerburt des Monica–kinds and Anatomy which employ grammatical issues throughout them. She uses attributive adjectives, non–finite verb strings, active voice and the known–new contract to give an in–depth analysis of her poems which she uses pathos to convey her emotions. By incorporating these grammatical issues into her work, Ferrell intends to develop a clear and sharp image to ignite the imagination of her readers.

The English verbs include four forms distinctly differing one another within the general verb system: the infinitive, the present participle, the past participle and the gerund. As natural results of its origin and development the gerund has nominal and verbal properties. The nominal characteristic of the gerund are followed: The gerund can be perform the functions of subject, predicative, object, adverbial modifier, and attribute. I will describe all of them. The Gerund is the non–finite form of the verb which combines the properties of the verb with those of the noun. The gerund serves as the verbal name of a process, but its substantive quality is more strongly pronounced than that of the infinitive. Namely, as different from the infinitive, and similar to the noun, the gerund can be modified by a noun in the possessive case or its pronominal equivalents (expressing the subject of the verbal process), and it can be used with prepositions.

Provide examples to illustrate your discussion. a. Aspect: Aspect grammatical category of verbs denotes the flow of time related to the event they express. Unlike tense that is semantically rather related to the event in time, aspect is about time moving through the event (Riemer 314). The difference between, for example, "I walked" and "I was walking" is in our view of the two events, the first as an event that happened in a certain point in the past while the second viewed with an emphasis on the temporal sense of the event over which it happened. Distinctions can be made between perfective and imperfective aspect. The marking of the two and appearance is different among languages. For example, Mandarin Chinese offers two perfective markers; le and guo. However, in English, perfective aspect forms are those verbs in the simple form like read, ate, walk... and imperfective forms are progressive forms such as am walking, was reading, were eating... It is crucial to understand that the completion or duration of the event does not distinguish between perfective and imperfective aspect because both can be expressed by either form. For, example, the use of struggled in the sentence Ali struggled during his fourth round clearly shows that the perfective form can be used to express an event that happened over a period of time. there is also ...

In general words, an interpretative and communicative method, where the ST meaning, function, genre and effect on the reader are kept but it is absolutely comprehensible for the TT reader. But if we analyze closely, different styles have been used into several situations, with the balanced one as a result. On the one hand, it has to be pointed the literal method, mostly used with different verb tenses in general. As Lathey (2012) comments on her article about the translation of children literature, "role of tense systems in narrative for children may well reveal cultural differences". In the case of Spanish and English, both use past tense for narration, while German or French have an historic present. In other words, verb tenses have been translated using a literal method, with the closest Spanish verb equivalent. However, some verb tenses are not 100% literal translatable from English to Spanish. That is when I had a problem. For example, the –ing form in English is more common than the gerund in Spanish (Thinking it was she... = Al pensar que era ella/ Pensando que era ella.).This has been sometimes an issue, because even if in a literal translation that would be the correct form, is not normative or idiomatic in Spanish. In short, the general base of the tense (present, past and future) are translated in a literal way, but when the aspect of the verb is involved, it is ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 74. Analysis Of The Article ' Heart Of Darkness ' Essay determiner: Words such as "a/an," "the," "some," and "my" are determiners, which are utilized to "determine" what nouns mean. "A/an" and "the" can be considered to be the most significant determiners. "A/an" and "the" also are known as articles. A more comprehensive list of determiners would include "any," "each," "every," "no," "his," "this/that," "these/those," "his," "her," "its," "your," "our," and "their." A concept basic to articles is countability, and they pose difficult challenges for L2 learners regarding, for example, which nouns are countable or uncountable in English since countability, while very important, can be difficult to quantify. An example regarding the use of the article would be the novel Heart of Darkness. Not having an article at the beginning of this title appears to be more a matter of style than grammar, and also is a characteristic of headlines, titles, and names. So while conventionally a countable noun (such as heart) needs a determiner (the, a, this, or my), not applying this rule could be confusing to an L2 learner expecting an article. 2. perfective: In English, there are two aspects (see next entry for a definition of "aspect")–perfect (also called perfective) and continuous (also termed progressive). The perfect aspect establishes a connection between two periods of time while the continuous aspect typically connotes that an activity still is occurring, is seen from a specific juncture in time, and the verbs employed are those typically ...

To "be made" does not fit the context, and to "be healed" does not encompass the full extent of what Christ is doing to us, which is saving us from deserved eternal torment. Defining this word as "to save" is the best definition because it fully encompasses the salvation that Christ gives to people, while also correctly aligning itself to the intended meaning for the Ephesian audience. 2.

When you talk to the laity, you must understand that they are not going to understand very much Greek (if any at all), so it is rarely fruitful to bring in any Greek terminology except for the Greek word itself. For example, if I tell my audience that the Greek word σεσῳσμένοι is a Perfect Participle Passive verb, some of them might think I am speaking in tongues. It is important to actually communicate with the audience, so in my application of the text, I would emphasize how salvation itself is a gift of God, as this is an important point that Paul makes. I would also tell them about how they are continually in the process of being saved, and show them from my own study, in an understandable way, how Christians continually work out their salvation. I would assure my congregation that their salvation is secure in Christ, while also affirming the meaning of Paul's words in a way that kindles their love for Christ.

Teaching A Foreign Language Has Never Been Easy Assignments #3 Morphology/ Syntax Learning a foreign language has never been easy; one reason is the language system of each country varies vastly. Question structuring is one system that requires investigation in order to fully learn the technique of asking questions. Turkish and Polish are two countries that contrast immensely in question formation. This essay will first investigate the question forming system in these two countries in asking yes/ no questions, and other regular questions. Following after is a comparison between the two languages. Polish follows the word order of subject + verb + object (Pimsleur Approach, n.d.). When asking questions, subject is usually replaced by a question word while the verb is changed to the ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Attaching a Wh–question word at the beginning of the sentence is one other way to form a question. Wh– questions words in Polish include "Co", "kto", "dlaczego", "gdzie" and "jak", which are "where", who", "why", "where" and how" in English. ("Polish Questions", n.d.) Meanwhile, Tukish follows the rule of Subject + Object +Verb (Yıldız, Solak, Görgün & Ehsani, n.d.). Yes/ no questions are formed by adding the suffix,"–mi", at the end of the sentence. Although "–mi" is inserted as a question word, it is considered as a suffix because it has to comply with the vowel harmony rule in regulating the relationship between suffixes and vowels. An example is "bu bir kitap mi?", which means "Is this a book?" in English (Turkish Class, n.d.). As a free morpheme, "–mi" can be modified depending on the occasion. For instance, "–mi" belongs to present tense, while "miydim" is in past tense (Manisa Turkish, 2014). Thus "–mi" is an inflectional affixation that changes form in different contexts. Inserting "değil mi" at the end of the sentence is another way to ask a yes/ no question. "Değil mi", "not" in English, is also an inflectional affixation that adds grammatical information to the question. For other questions types, a question word can be placed on the word/ phrase of the answer to form a question. The following rules can better explain this. First, the answer sentence is ...

  • 87. The Is A Disorder Diagnosed When Oral Language SLI is a disorder diagnosed when oral language lags behind other areas of development for no apparent reason (Bishop & Snowling, 2004). Many studies report that SLI affects a relatively large percentage of the child population, around 5%– 10%, (McArthur et al., 2000). Furthermore, McArthur et al. (2000) showed that more than 50% of children with dyslexia also meet the criteria for SLI (see also Marshall, Harcourt–Brown, Ramus & Van der Lely, 2009 and McArthur & Hogben, 2001). Bishop and Snowling (2004) claim that diagnostic criteria for SLI are vague. This is 153 because children with SLI display significant difficulties with one or more linguistic domains, such as phonology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics. In fact, the defining criterion states that a child has SLI if their difficulties cannot be explained by deficits in other aspects of cognition that are linked to language acquisition, such as intelligence, hearing, oral–motor skills and language exposure (Dollaghan, 2008), but does not specifically define any subfield of linguistics as crucial for the discrimination. 5. 4. 2 SLI and morphology Friedmann & Novogrodsky (2006) present a detailed discussion of variability in SLI. The authors distinguish between phonological–SLI, syntactic–SLI, semantic– SLI and pragmatic–SLI.
