5 Characteristics Of Developing Countries
Developing nations typically have 5 key characteristics: 1) widespread poverty where basic needs cannot be reliably met; 2) a large percentage (50-70%) of the workforce in agriculture, which is unreliable due to poor soil/tools/conditions and results in food shortages; 3) scarce capital both physical (tools, infrastructure) and human (education, skills); 4) limited imports due to low exports after meeting local needs with natural resources; and 5) rapidly growing populations which further strains limited resources.

The Anglo-Saxon Age and Beowulf
Here are some key points about Old English vocabulary:
- Many words are recognizable to modern English speakers due to shared Germanic roots between Old English and modern English. Words like "man," "woman," "water," "good," "land" would have been familiar.
- Spellings often differ from modern English. For example, "cyning" rather than "king." Consonant combinations like "sc" were more common where we now use "sh."
- Grammar was also more complex. For example, nouns had distinct masculine, feminine, and neuter forms and declined based on case, number and other factors. Verbs had to be conjugated.
- Vocabulary incorporated Latin and French

Writing Task #2
· For HW, you up to line 960 of Beowulf. For this discussion board post, I'd like you to consider the following questions regarding the Beowulf poet's portrayal of the Grendel. What words are used to describe Grendel? What connotations do these words give to the reader? What motivates Grendel to attack and terrorize Heorot? How is Grendel alienated from the Germanic warrior society, and what kind of threat does he pose to this society? Do we, as readers, feel satisfied by Beowulf's slaying of Grendel?
· Notes: Since we don't know the author of Beowulf's name, please refer to s/he as the Beowulf author/poet/bard.
· I also expect you to quote from the text. When you do so, please use proper quotation and citation adhering to MLA style with the line # in parentheses and a / to indicate a line break. For example:
· The Beowulf poet writes, "Often, for undaunted courage, / Fate spares the man it has not already marked" (l.572-3).
