The National Association of Hispanic Journalist For example, plural words in English often are made by adding an “s,” but that is not always the case in Spanish. The Spanish alphabet includes a letter that is not used in English: the letter “ñ.” This is not an accent mark; “ñ” is a different letter, with a distinct pronunciation. Words ending in “n,” “s” or vowels with stress in the final syllable require an accent mark: alacrán, francés, sofá. www.nahj.org /resourceguide/chapter_6.html   (1353 words)

Whatglobal If these two trends are occurring, and they are, then the globalization of English will never deliver the tantalizing result we might hope for: that is, we monolingual English-speakers may never be able to communicate fluently with everyone everywhere. Special English has a basic vocabulary of just 1,500 words (The American Heritage Dictionary contains some 200,000 words, and the Oxford English Dictionary nearly 750,000), though sometimes these words are used to define non-Special English words that VOA writers deem essential to a given story. English is a system of communication, and highly germane to it is what or who speakers of English care to communicate with, and about what. faculty.ed.umuc.edu /~jmatthew/articles/Whatglobal.html   (6150 words)

Scrabble - Psychology Central Each letter is worth a set number of points, with the value depending on the letter's frequency in standard English writing; commonly-used letters such as E or O are worth one point, whilst less common letters score higher, with Q and Z each scoring ten points. Words that are hyphenated, capitalized (such as proper nouns), marked as foreign, or appear only as part of multi-word phrases are not allowed (unless they also appear as acceptable entries: "Japan" is a proper noun, but the verb "japan" — to decorate with black enamel or lacquer — is acceptable). It remains as that letter thereafter for the rest of the game. psychcentral.com /psypsych/Scrabble   (5884 words)

Traditional English Orthography - History This article reveals some of the absurdities of the spelling system used in English speaking countries since 1800, explains the difference between a language, a script, and a spelling system, and chronicles some of the attempts to "break the spell"* advanced by advocates of simplified and regularized spelling. A 4 letter word can typically be spelled over 10,000 different ways, only one of which is orthographically (or rather lexically) correct. Nine different spellings of the sound common to rule, tool, and flue were listed by Soffietti. victorian.fortunecity.com /vangogh/555/Spell/trublspl1.html   (2174 words)

The Mahatma Letters to A. P. Sinnett - comp. A. T. Barker NOTE: Files of each letter are named according to the letter number assigned by A. Barker in his first and second editions, given in Arabic numerals, as in ml-#.htm. Having had occasion recently to check certain letters with the originals, the Compiler made the discovery that an unduly large number of errors had somehow crept in, so many in fact as to necessitate a complete and thorough revision of the whole work from beginning to end. Occasionally a word will be found in small square brackets; this always indicates that the word is not in the original but is necessary to the comprehension of the passage. www.theosociety.org /pasadena/mahatma/ml-hp.htm   (1344 words)

It is the first UN Summit to take place in two sessions – the first in Geneva in 2003, the second in Tunis in 2005.

Bigrams: Two Letter Words We can summarize the results by marking words with a star in the simple table below, where the first letter of the word is given on the left, and the second letter along the top. Some of these words dwell in the shadowy netherlands of English, only called into existence when a really intense Scrabble game has gone into overtime, or when an overeducated paranoid believes it almost possible to translate babytalk. A few of the words that appear only in Chambers Dictionary are a little hard to swallow, but that dictionary has some canonical sanction in International Scrabble circles. orion.math.iastate.edu /burkardt/wordplay/bigram.html   (676 words)

Writing Specifications The dictionary says about the virgule: "an oblique stroke (/) used between two words to show that the appropriate one may be chosen to complete the sense of the text." Please note that it's your contractor who gets to decide which word is proper. When the elements of a list become numerous, the visual clutter of the text makes it difficult to read, and readers are therefore likely to miss one or more of the elements. For example, the list "resistors, capacitors, inductors and other components" could be interpreted as not applying to transistors, since transistors are active components and all the listed components are passive. www.ntsc.navy.mil /Resources/Library/Acqguide/SpecWrit.htm#virgule   (2324 words)

On the derivation of YOGH and EZH I suspect that the RTG may be established in the typography of canonical editions of Middle English sources, and certainly may have been derived from medieval preferences for the written form of the letter. And the glyphic resemblance of the FTG to the letter z would have made it an obvious choice also, because it would have put resemblant glyphs into a relation of representing two voiced fricatives in close articulatory proximity to each other. Old English used the insular letter g, which the Saxons had been given by the Irish. www.evertype.com /standards/wynnyogh/ezhyogh.html   (4043 words)

yourDictionary.com • 100 Most Often Mispronounced Words The word is spelled "forte" but the [e] is pronounced only when speaking of music, as a "forte passage." The words for a strong point and a stronghold are pronounced the same: [fort]. Haplology is the dropping of one of two identical syllables such as the [ob] and [ab] in this word, usually the result of fast speech. Latin for "and" (et) "the rest" (cetera) are actually two words that probably should be written separately. www.yourdictionary.com /library/mispron.html   (2481 words)

Hugh Hewitt Those heavy triangles sent the message before I could fully understand it; they told of Messerschmitts and 38th Parallels and bombardiers before I knew what those words meant. As I write in the book, McClellan's Disease runs deep in some parts of the GOP, and the refusal to stand up the obsturctionist Democratic minority in the Senate is the primary example of this faint-heartedness in GOP circles. That's two in a row for Northern Alliance bloggers, with Powerline taking the honors last year. www.hughhewitt.com   (11237 words)
