Received Pronunciation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia It was standard practice until around the 1950s for university students with regional accents to modify their speech to be closer to RP. Received Pronunciation (RP) is a form of pronunciation of the English language, sometimes defined as the "educated spoken English of southeastern England." It is a dialect of English English often taught to non-native speakers, and represented in the pronunciation schemes of most British dictionaries. RP is sometimes known as the Queen's English but recordings show that even the Queen has changed her pronunciation over the past 50 years, no longer using a [ɛ]-like vowel in words like land. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Received_Pronunciation   (1007 words)

Retinal degenerative diseases - Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) The chance of such parents having a child completely free of the RP gene is 1 in 4. RP is recognized as one of the most common inherited causes of blindness in people between the ages of 20 and 60. Deafness associated with RP in a condition known as Usher syndrome is one such disability. www.retina-international.org /rp.htm   (797 words)

RP - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) And this recommendation is for adults; RP patients under the age of 18 were not evaluated and 15,000 IU of supplementary vitamin A palmitate is not recommended for children. "We told our son he had RP when he was 13 years old and gave him the basic facts about RP," remembers Judi Parker of The Foundation's Atlanta Affiliate. RP is usually diagnosed in young adulthood, although certain forms of RP are evident in early childhood and other forms may not appear until later in life. www.jwen.com /rp/faq/rpfaq.html   (7117 words)

RP English RP has for many years epitomized the "top end of the scale" of British English and it is what English people have traditionally meant when they’ve said that someone "hasn’t got an accent." It remains that RP is often regarded as a "neutral" and often "correct" accent. Wales (1994) also differentiates between them in saying that "conservative" RP is often spoken by the older generation, and "advanced" RP by the younger generation. Wells (1991) has identified some characteristics of popular accents that have been resisted by RP and also some changes that have been accepted into RP. www.ic.arizona.edu /~lsp/RPEnglish.html   (565 words)

Received Pronunciation RP has certainly changed in my lifetime, as anyone can verify by watching old wartime propaganda films and newsreels and listening to the way the officers spoke. This is not to say that a regional accent should be a barrier to their ability to teach, but nonetheless RP is considered appropriate in the classroom, particularly in higher education. That was the form known as "marked RP", which has virtually disappeared today, and has been modified even in the speech of the Queen and other members of the old aristocracy. www.yaelf.com /rp.shtml   (2666 words)

Retinitis Pigmentosa and Retinal Degeneration in Australia RP and RD for Australians is the largest part of my personal site, Dee's Wonky Window, and is divided into 10 feature sections and a navigation and help section as described below. RP causes visual field loss, and may lead to eventual blindness, by affecting the light sensitive photoreceptors in the retina. Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) is the name given to a group of eye diseases often characterised by night blindness and the gradual loss of peripheral vision. www.netserv.net.au /doonbank/rd.html   (552 words)

Sociolinguistics of modern RP As far as RP is concerned, the ongoing work of Fabricius (2000) shows that the younger generations of those sections of the community one would expect to be RP speakers still are RP speakers. The point is that RP speakers have always represented a very small proportion of the population of native speakers of English in Britain. Until relatively recently, RP had a role to play in Australian society as the accent with the highest status, and RP speakers were the people who were employed in broadcasting. www.phon.ucl.ac.uk /home/estuary/trudgill.htm   (4208 words)

The cockneyfication of RP? The continued existence of RP (and indeed of what I have elsewhere termed 'near-RP'­­Wells, 1982: 279, 297-301) may be inferred from the observation that various popular pronunciation features of English English remain clearly outside RP and have been firmly resisted by it. Characteristics of popular accents, resisted by RP 2.1 H-dropping is the failure to pronounce [h] in positions where RP-speakers would pronounce it: thus ["æm@] for ["hæm@] hammer, [edZ] for [hedZ] hedge, [bi"aInd] for [bI"haInd] behind, [aI "æv] for [aI "hæv] I have. Defining RP In a discussion such as this it is important not to lose sight of the fact that accents, and more generally varieties of a language, are not objective entities so much as mental constructs. www.phon.ucl.ac.uk /home/wells/cockneyf.htm   (2687 words)

Redefining Progress RP analyzed the city of San Jose's Specific Plan against Greenbelt Alliance's vision, “Getting it Right: Preventing Sprawl in Coyote Valley,” and found that the Greenbelt Alliance proposal would outperform San Jose's proposed plan in environmental, economic, and social sustainability. Illinois: RP’s analysis has demonstrated that adoption of the “polluters pay principle” has the potential to raise $1.9 billion in revenue. RP is currently refining S2 and exploring partnerships for its application on pivotal land use decisions across the state of California. www.rprogress.org   (920 words)

rfc3956.txt Example 2 As in Example 1, the network administrator of 2001:DB8::/32 wants to set up the RP but, to make it more flexible, wants to place it on a specifically routed subnet and wants to keep larger address space for group allocations. As the address of the RP is tied to the multicast address, the RP failure management becomes more difficult, as the deployed failover or redundancy mechanisms (e.g., BSR, Anycast-RP with MSDP) cannot be used as-is. However, Anycast-RP using PIM provides equal redundancy; this described briefly in Section 6.1. RP Redundancy A technique called "Anycast RP" is used within a PIM-SM domain to share an address and multicast state information between a set of RPs mainly for redundancy purposes. www.ietf.org /rfc/rfc3956.txt   (4353 words)

Regulatory Potential (RP) Scores We computed RP scores from 2-way alignments of human and mouse [1], and more recently from 3-way alignments of human, mouse, and rat [2]. Calibration: In order to assess the performance of RP scores, and to compare their behavior to that of pure conservation scores, we are performing a calibration study on the region of the beta hemoglobin gene cluster. RP Scores are a computational tool to aid in the identification of putative regulatory sites of the human genome. www.bx.psu.edu /projects/rp   (1155 words)

Prevent Blindness America - Retinitis Pigmentosa RP causes the thin layer of tissue in the back of the eye, which is called the retina, to deteriorate. RP diseases are genetic and are passed down from one or both parents. RP damages the cells in the retina that sense light. www.preventblindness.org /eye_problems/rpFAQ.html   (350 words)

Radiation Pattern (RP) The RP card will initiate program execution, causing the interaction matrix to be computed and factored and the structure currents to be computed if these operations have not already been performed. At a single frequency, any number of RP cards may occur in sequence so that different field-point spacings may be used over different regions of space. The RP cart allows automatic stepping of the field point to compute the field over a region about the antenna at uniformly spaced points. www.nec2.org /part_3/cards/rp.html   (1122 words)

What is Retinitis Pigmentosa? RP and related diseases are rare and difficult to accurately diagnose. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the name given to a group of inherited eye diseases that affect the retina. It is very important to remember that because RP is an inherited disorder, it can potentially affect another member of the family. www.blindness.org /content.asp?id=45   (967 words)

RP The set RP will contain exactly the same problems, even if the 1/2 is replaced by any nonzero probability less then 1. P is a subset of RP, which is a subset of NP. It is also not known whether RP = Co-RP, or whether RP is a subset of the intersection of NP and Co-NP. www.yotor.org /wiki/en/rp/RP.htm   (399 words)

Western Australian Retinitis Pigmentosa Foundation RP bodies throughout the world support research in a number of medical centres and hospitals internationally to find the cause, prevention and treatment of retinal degenerative diseases like Retinitis Pigmentosa, Usher syndrome and Macular Degeneration. One of the earliest symptoms of RP is difficulty seeing at night or in dimly lit places (night blindness). Through the efforts of RP organisations in many countries, the number of highly qualified investigative scientists working full time on RP and related diseases continues to grow. www.retinitispigmentosa.com.au   (285 words)

RP Group - Rapid Prototyping Introduction Others basic principles of RP are the need for specific materials such as fluids, powders, wire or laminates as well as the need for sophisticated equipment employing different physical principles such as laser, sintering, etc. Though there are no restrictions concerning complexity and geometrical features, the physical objects are limited in their size. An important difference between RP and traditional techniques is the fact that most of these new techniques build parts by adding material (e.g. Rapid Prototyping (RP) techniques are methods that allow to quickly produce physical prototypes with the important benefit to reduce the Time To Market. www.biba.uni-bremen.de /groups/rp/rp_intro.html   (317 words)
