Greek Latin Roots
This document lists and defines Greek and Latin roots commonly found in medical and scientific terminology. It includes over 20 roots related to parts of the body, quantities, measurements, conditions and their meanings such as foli meaning leaf, manu meaning hand, cardio or cor meaning heart, and mal or dys meaning bad. The roots provided offer insight into word origins and definitions across many technical fields of study.
Colons and semicolons
Colons and semi-colons are punctuation marks that are used in lists and to join clauses. Colons introduce lists and link two clauses when the second gives more information about the first. Semi-colons separate longer items in a list and link closely related clauses, acting as connectives between clauses of equal weight. The document provides examples of using colons before lists and definitions and semi-colons to join clauses that could otherwise be joined with connectives like "and".
Conjunctions
This document defines and provides examples of the three main types of conjunctions: coordinating conjunctions, subordinating conjunctions, and correlative conjunctions. Coordinating conjunctions join individual words, phrases, and independent clauses. Subordinating conjunctions introduce dependent clauses and indicate the relationship between the dependent and independent clauses. Correlative conjunctions function in pairs to join equal grammatical elements.
Greek And Latin root & affixes Ppt
The document provides a list of Greek and Latin roots and affixes along with examples of English words that contain each root or affix. It is organized into three lists that group roots and affixes based on their meaning or function. The roots and affixes relate to concepts like earth, measurement, humanity, water, spheres, movement, light, size, heat, and vision. Examples are given to illustrate how each root or affix is used to form English words across various domains like science, technology, and language.
Direct & indirect objects
This document defines and provides examples of direct objects and indirect objects in sentences. A direct object receives the action of a transitive verb and answers who or what is being acted upon. An indirect object precedes the direct object and identifies to whom or for whom the direct object is being given or done. Examples are provided to identify the subject, verb, direct object, and indirect object in sentences.
Conditional mood
The document discusses the conditional mood in simple sentences. The conditional mood is formed using "should/would + the infinitive" and can be perfect or non-perfect. It represents an action that contradicts reality. The conditional mood is used with an adverbial modifier expressing condition, with an implied condition, or to sound polite. It discusses the different forms like "should/would have done" and how "should" and "would" can both be used for the first person in modern English.
GERUND AND GERUND PHRASES
The gerund is a non-finite verb form that ends in "-ing" and can function as a noun. As a noun, gerunds can serve as the subject, object, or complement of a sentence. However, gerunds retain qualities of verbs as well, as they can take objects and are often used after certain verbs like "enjoy" and "consider". It is important to understand whether a verb ending in "-ing" is functioning as a gerund or present participle based on how it is used in a sentence.
Open and Closed Syllables
Cupid was unhappy with his family's business of making people fall in love and wanted to be a hero instead. When he heard a human calling for help after getting trapped in cement with his dog, Cupid saw his chance to prove himself as a hero. He tried pulling them out but the cement had dried, so he shot it with his arrow and broke the cement into pieces, freeing the human and dog. The human rewarded Cupid, allowing him to finally see himself as the hero he wanted to be.

The human rewarded Cupid, allowing him to finally see himself as the hero he wanted to be.
Apostrophe
The document discusses two main uses of apostrophes: forming contractions and showing possession. It provides examples of common contractions like don't and wouldn't which show where letters have been omitted. For possession, an apostrophe is added to the end of a noun to show it belongs to someone, like John's car. There are two rules for forming possessives - add only an apostrophe if the noun already ends in s, otherwise add 's. The document also briefly mentions a few other less common uses of apostrophes.
Predicate adjectives
This document is a resource for all grades that teaches about predicate adjectives. It explains that a predicate adjective follows a linking verb and describes the subject. It provides examples of sentences containing linking verbs and predicate adjectives, such as "Bees are necessary for pollinating plants" where "are" is the linking verb and "necessary" is the predicate adjective. The resource aims to help students identify linking verbs and predicate adjectives in sentences.
Grammar 8 parts
The document defines and provides examples of the 8 parts of speech in English grammar: nouns, pronouns, adjectives, verbs, adverbs, prepositions, conjunctions, and interjections. It explains their basic definitions and functions in sentences. Key examples are provided to illustrate proper usage of each part of speech.
Creative sentence starters
This document provides tips and examples for using a variety of sentence starters to make writing more interesting and varied. It encourages beginning sentences with verbs, gerunds, prepositions, adverbs, and other parts of speech rather than using the same words like subjects at the start of sentences. Examples are given like "Running was the only way to escape the savage dog" and "On Suhkveer's wall was a poster advertising the next school dance." Readers are invited to try rewriting sentences themselves using these techniques.
Writing Transitions
The document discusses different types of transitions used in writing. It defines transitions as words or phrases that connect sentences and paragraphs by establishing logical relationships between ideas. It provides examples of simple transitions that use common words like "also" or "furthermore" and more subtle transitions that indirectly connect ideas. The document advises using a mix of simple and subtle transitions to avoid sounding cliche while still clearly linking ideas.
Paradox
This document discusses several famous paradoxes throughout history:
1) Paradoxes involve statements that seem self-contradictory or absurd, such as whether an all-powerful God can create a rock too heavy to lift.
2) Examples include Zeno's paradox of never reaching point B due to always being halfway there, and the grandfather paradox of changing one's own past.
3) The liar paradox questions whether a statement claiming to be a lie is true or false, leading to logical contradictions either way.
4) Finally, Russell's paradox examines the statement "This statement is false" and finds it cannot be consistently assigned a truth value.
5 types of nouns powerpoint
This document discusses 5 types of nouns: common and proper nouns, concrete and abstract nouns, and collective nouns. Common nouns name general people, places, things or ideas while proper nouns name specific ones. Concrete nouns can be physically touched while abstract nouns name ideas and qualities. Collective nouns name groups considered as a single unit. Nouns can belong to more than one category, such as "milk" being both common and concrete.
Main idea and theme
The document provides tips for determining the main idea and theme of reading passages. It advises the reader to state the main idea in their own words after reading and choose answer choices that match their main idea statement. Readers should avoid picking detail-oriented answer choices or confusing details for the main idea. Questions about the title of a passage often relate to the main idea. To identify the theme, readers should consider the lesson or message intended by the author.
Homophone ppt
Homophones are words that are pronounced the same but have different meanings and spellings. Common homophones include too, two, to; knight, night; eight, ate; ax, acts; flea, flee. It can be tricky to distinguish between homophones in writing and speech. Making a list with the homophones side by side and their definitions can help memorize which is which. Some words even have three homophones that are pronounced the same.
WHO OR WHOM?
The document discusses the proper uses of "who" and "whom" in sentences. It explains that "who" or "whoever" should be used as the subject of a sentence, while "whom" or "whoever" should be used as the object, such as in prepositional phrases beginning with "to." Examples are provided to illustrate using "who" when it can be replaced by "he" or "she" as the subject, and using "whom" when it can be replaced by "him" or "her" as the object.
Subject- Verb Agreement Rules
Subject-verb agreement rules dictate that:
1. Singular subjects require a singular verb form while plural subjects require a plural verb form.
2. When subjects are joined by "and", they take a plural verb form unless the subjects themselves are already plural.
3. Irregular plural nouns like "children" and "oxen" still follow subject-verb agreement rules.
Expressions of time, money, weight or volume take singular verb forms even though they are plural in form. Proper identification of the subject is needed when sentences begin with "there" or "here".
Figurative Language - Paradox
A paradox is a statement that appears contradictory or impossible but is actually true. It is a type of figurative language that can be an extended oxymoron where the opposing words or ideas do not appear side by side. Common examples of paradoxes include the ideas that less is more, two people can become one yet remain two in marriage, bringing peace through war, and being able to be young again when old enough.
Subject complements
This document discusses subject complements and provides examples of sentences containing subject complements. Subject complements are words that describe the subject of a sentence and follow a linking verb. Linking verbs include forms of "to be" as well as verbs like taste, smell, sound, feel, seem, look, appear, grow, remain, and become. Examples of sentences with subject complements include "The boy is funny" and "The lemon tastes sour."
Sentence Combining Part one
The document discusses different ways to combine short, choppy sentences into longer, smoother sentences including:
1. Using a series of words or phrases with parallel structure.
2. Using compound subjects and verbs to join ideas.
3. Moving a key word between sentences to link them.
4. Incorporating phrases like prepositional, participial, infinitive, and appositive phrases.
5. Connecting independent clauses with coordinating conjunctions to form compound sentences.
6. Using subordinate conjunctions and relative pronouns to create complex sentences where one idea is dependent on the other.
Transitive and intransitive verbs
This document discusses transitive and intransitive verbs. A transitive verb denotes an action that passes from the subject to an object, and can be converted to passive voice. Examples include "She made pizza" and "The boy cut his hand." An intransitive verb denotes an action without an object and cannot be converted to passive voice. Examples include "The sun shines" and "The train stopped." To identify verb types, check if the sentence has an object or can be made passive. This helps determine if the verb is transitive or intransitive.
Conditional sentences 1
This document provides an overview of conditional sentences including their structure, types, tenses, and uses. There are four main types of conditional sentences: zero, first, second, and third conditionals. Each type uses different verb tenses in the if-clause and main clause to indicate varying degrees of probability. Zero conditionals use present tense, first conditionals use present/future, second conditionals use past/conditional, and third conditionals use past perfect/conditional perfect. The document also gives examples and exercises to illustrate each conditional type.
Greek & latin root words power point
The document lists Greek and Latin root words and asks the reader to think of words that contain each root. Some of the roots included are aqua/hydra for water, auto for self, bio for life, circum for around, cent for one hundred, dis for opposite, form for shape, graph for writing, hetero for different, and homo for same.

The document encourages using clues and experiences to anticipate what might happen next in a story.
Introduction to Morphology
Morphology is the study of word structure and formation. It analyzes the morphemic structure of words. A morpheme is the smallest unit of meaning, and words can consist of free morphemes that can stand alone or bound morphemes that cannot. There are two main types of bound morphemes: derivational morphemes that change a word's meaning or class, and inflectional morphemes that change grammatical information without altering meaning. Words are formed through processes like affixation, compounding, reduplication, blending, and others. Understanding morphology helps with reading comprehension and vocabulary development.

South African Journal of Science: Writing with integrity workshop (2024)Academy of Science of South Africa
A workshop hosted by the South African Journal of Science aimed at postgraduate students and early career researchers with little or no experience in writing and publishing journal articles.A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
