Inglise keele ajalugu, essee "My languages"

My languages I love different languages. I mean, I really, really love different languages. I also believe and have been told that I pick them up rather easily. That might be true, although I did not pick any Greek up in Greece but that might have been because they spoke so damn fast that I could not tell if it was a word or an entire sentence. The first foreign language I learned was Russian. Considering I was ten when Estonia became a Republic, it makes sense. We began studying Russian in first grade, though it was simplified – "koška" instead of "kot", "medvešonok" instead of "medved", "saichik" etc. Did not make much sense and we mostly played some games in Russian (Tare-tareke etc). Learned as much playing outside, since we had Estonian-Russian kids around as well. Not that we played with them. It's sad to say but it was not a nice time to be a Russian kid. We were mean to them, and we did not even know why. I think that's the onl

Blandings Castle

Character analysis Lord Emsworth: Quotes: 1) "Beach," said Lord Emsworth. "M'lord?" "I've been swindled. This dashed thing doesn't work." "Your lordship cannot see clearly?" "I can't see at all, dash it. It's all black." The butler was an observant man. "Perhaps if I were to remove the cap at the extremity of the instrument, m'lord, more satisfactory results might be obtained." "Eh? Cap? Is there a cap? So there is. Take it off, Beach." "Very good, m'lord." "Ah!" 2) "It's Aggie. My wife, you know." "Well?" "She's left me." "Left you!" "Absolutely flat." 3) "Why did you let him go? You must have known I would want to see him." "What good would that have done?" "I could at least have assured him of my sympathy," said Lady Constance stiffly. "Yes, I suppose you could," said Lord Emsworth, having considered the point. "Not that he deserves any sy

Review Of Donald Norman Design Of Everyday Things

Very rarely it happens so that you can pick up a non-fiction book from a concrete field and it will be making almost perfect sense to you even though you're neither working nor educated in that field. Donald Norman's Design of Everyday Things is that kind of book. It reads effortlessly, for the most part, it entertains and for a non-fictional book, that's a rare quality; but most importantly, meanwhile, it educates. DOET, very aptly renamed from Psychology of Everyday Things, while having its shortcomings, goes a great mile towards providing a starting point for newcomers in the field, quite concisely summing up humankind's experiences in design, common errors and best practices, while also providing some scientific basis for many conclusions. Quite notably, Norman's background is in cognitive science and mathematical psychology, which grants him enough of authority to author an endeavor such as this and not be questioned as to what he himself has designed and whether those products c

"Ender's game"

......... Orson Scott Card He was born on the 24th of August, 1951 in Richland, Washington. Card's writing career began primarily as a poet, studying at Brigham Young University. During his studies as a theatre major, he began "doctoring" scripts, adapting fiction for theatre production, and finally writing his own one-act and full-length plays. Later he has worked both as a freelancer and a contracted writer. He first wrote the short story "Ender's Game" while working at the BYU press. Ender's Game and its sequel Speaker for the Dead were both awarded the Hugo Award and the Nebula Award, making Card the only author (as of 2008) to win both of science fiction's top prizes in consecutive years. Card continued the series with seven books, which divide into "Shadow" and "Speaker" series. He has also announced his plan to write two more novels: Shadows in Flight, a book that connects the "Shadow" series and "Speaker" series together, and Ender in

Fight Club - Book review

BOOK REPORT Title of the book: Fight Club Author (name and some general information): Chuck Palahniuk is an American novelist born February 21, 1962 in Washington, USA. He is best known as the author for the novel Fight Club (1996), which was made into a movie in 1999. Palahniuk began writing fiction in his mid-thirties. When he attempted to publish his novel, Invisible Monsters, publishers rejected it for its disturbing content. This led him to work on Fight Club which he wrote as an attempt to disturb the publisher even more for rejecting him. After initially publishing it as a short story in the 1995 compilation, Pursuit of Happiness, Palahniuk expanded it into a full novel, which --contrary to his expectations--the publisher was willing to publish. Some other well-known novels: Rant, Choke, Diary. Analysis of the book 1. Setting The story takes place in somewhere between 1980s and 1990s in the United States. 2. Characters

Ameerika kirjandus alates I maailmasõjast kuni tänapäevani.

The crops, farmers become pendent of banks. They turn into tenants, they share crops, in the end the bank dont give any more credit and take away the land. On the one hand the banks tried to help but at a very high price, the farmers don't understand at first, who is to blame at first. At the same time like a true naturalist, steinberg shows that banks and landovwners are also actually caught into system, so they dont have any choice, these are just the rules of the game. And ofcourse the whole pursuit of money and profit, men and banks become inhuman. Steinberg paints a picture of the growing anger of the people. For example produces such as coffe is burnt, people are starved but produces are burned to keep up the prices. Instead of givind the foood to the poor people they burn it. Peoples patience becomes to an end. They are mostly illiterate. They come from oklahoma, where dust, bad crops, erosion, finally forced them to leave their land. Moreover

The making of a new nation. The Enlightenment in America. The emergence of the notion of the American Dream. The great Enlighteners: Crèvecoeur, Jefferson, Paine, Franklin. The American Enlightenment is the intellectual thriving period in the United States in the midtolate 18th century (1715­1789), especially as it relates to American Revolution on the one hand and the European Enlightenment on the other.

If there were just one development that directly caused the American Revolution and uplifted the intellectual culture of the continent while it was only a British colony, it would be the American Enlightenment.
