Alfred the Great was king of Wessex from 871 to 899 AD. He successfully led resistance against Viking invaders in southern England when most of the other kingdoms had fallen. Alfred was the only British king to be given the honorific "The Great." English originated from Proto-Germanic tribes like the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes who migrated to Britain in the 5th-6th centuries AD and gradually settled the lands occupied by the native Celtic peoples, influencing English place names. Old English had a complex system of noun cases and strong/weak verb conjugations that has simplified over time.

These slides present an application for identifying archaisms and neologisms in texts. The application also provides the ability to view graphically the evolution trends of these words for a better interpretation of the results. The presented solution consists of two phases: the learning phase in which we identify the general evolution trends of three categories of words (archaisms, neologisms and common words) and the classification phase in which we label new words with their corresponding category. For both phases, the application requires Internet access because it is using the Google Books N-gram Viewer to generate the images that back up the decisions

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. Who is Alfred?
Born at Wantage, Berkshire, in 849, Alfred was the fifth son of Aethelwulf, king of the West Saxons.
As King of Wessex at the age of 21, Alfred (reigned 871-899) was a strong- minded but highly strung battle veteran at the head of remaining resistance to the Vikings in southern England.
He is the only king in Britain who has honor to be called “The Great”.

One important aspect of Proto-Indo- European is that is was an inflected language that is relied on changes at the end of word.
In all modern languages this inflectional system has broken down to a greater or lesser extent, and this is particularly true of English.

8. In 8th century, about 450 AD, Bede (English Historian) recorded in his Historia Ecclesiastical Gentis Anglorum (Ecclesiastical History of the English Language) that England was colonized by three Germanic tribes; they were Angles, Saxons, and Jutes.
Germanic tribes moved to Britain (England) only for general migration, and cannot be considered an invasion.
The tribes were looking for new lands to settle as either population growth or the pressure of the movement of other people encouraged them to move on. There was no sense of national identity and no national language in these early centuries of settlement.

9. continuation…
The Anglo-Saxons gradually settled the lands occupied by the Celts. It seems very probable that Anglo-Saxons had had some dealings with Celts before they came to Britain.
The major impact of the Celtic language on English has been through the names of places and rivers.

10. At the middle of the sixth century…
Several distinct regions: Wessex, Sussex, Kent, Essex, East Anglia, Mercia and North Umbria
No one of these kingdoms was able to achieve supremacy over the others, though they did have some kind of loose federal structure and the principal ruler was known as the Bretwalda.

The impetus of writing came from the conversion of the various kingdoms from 597 when St Augustine arrived in England and establish a new monastic foundation and commence producing manuscript for liturgical use and educational purposes.

12. A significant change was the contraction of vowels leading to compensatory lengthening. This occurred particularly where h fell between vowels.
In Old English the system which operated was that nouns had four cases in singular and plural:
Nominative
Accusative
Genetive
Dative
•All nouns are characterized by different forms within each group and these have characteristically been called masculine, feminine, and neuter.

13. The verbs were divided into two major categories, the so-called weak and strong verbs.
The weak verbs were a feature of Germanic and were formed by adding an inflectional ending that included a dental or alveolar consonant.
The strong verbs were formed by changing the stem vowel, usually through the process known as ablaut (a form of vowel gradation) but sometimes through reduplication.
9/24/2012
14. The strong verb fall into seven distinct patterns
1. ī ā i i
A stable pattern unaffected by other changes.
ridan rad ridon riden ‘to ride’
2. ēo/ū ē u o
Usually with a single consonant after the stem vowel, which could show the
Stem vowel, which could show the effects of Verner’s law.
Leosan leas luron loren ‘to lose’
3. e æ u o
This original pattern was frequently disturbed because the root vowel was
Followed by two consonant, the first of which was a liquid or nasal.
Helpan healp hulpon holpen ‘to help’

15. continuation…
4. e æ ǽ o
A single liquid or nasal after the root vowel
Beran baer baeron boren ‘to bear’
5. e æ ǽ e
A single consonant other than a liquid or nasal after the root vowel.
Sprecan spraec spraecon sprecen ‘to speak
6. a ō ō a
Faran for foron faren ‘to go travel’
7. Reduplication verbs; but the vowel and diphthong of the infinitive was repeated in the Past participle and both form of the preterite had either ē or ēo
Hatan het heton haten ‘to be called’
