Hiya, folks. I know this should be Men of Action Monday, but I'm not feeling too well. So instead I wanted to post this.

Abbreviations have much in common with jargon in that they have become part of the language that is exclusive to a particular profession or group. Language used in this way, as a convenient shorthand, can easily become a kind of barrier - a way of reinforcing people’s sense of belonging to an in-group.

Alphabet Soup - An A to Z of Abbreviations# Author: Rosalind Fergusson# Format:PDF 1.9MB# Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC # Number Of Pages: 192 # Publication Date: 2004-09-20 # ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0747572305 # ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780747572305 This book covers the four main types of abbreviation – shortenings, contractions, initialisms, and acronyms – but does not label them explicitly. These four types are as follows:Shortenings of words usually consist of the first few letters of the full form and are usually spelt with a final full stop when they are still regarded as abbreviations, for example cont. = continued, etc. = et cetera. They may also consist of the stressed syllable of the shortened word, e.g. bus or gym. In cases where they form words in their own right, the full

You might imagine that something as simple and basic as the alphabet would have been around forever. But of course it hasn't. As you may well know, the elaborate pictures of Egyptian hieroglyphics and the intricate reed-poked-into-clay marks of Mesopotamian cuneiform used to be the way people communicated in writing. Gradually these were simplified into syllable symbols instead of word symbols, but were still fairly daunting and only a few scholars ever learned to write.We are often told that the Phoenicians invented the alphabet, though some debate this. Regardless of who put pen to papyrus to create it, the Phoenician contribution was none-the-less major and critical. They were the major sea-traders of the Mediterranean, and they went everywhere.Every country which had a seashore se

A few weeks ago we had our first Parent-Teacher conference with Jack’s Kindergarten Teacher, the lovely and conveniently named Mrs. Rogers. Ahhh…Mrs. Rogers, I have always wanted to have a neighbor just like you, I’ve always wanted to live in a neighborhood with you. If only I was 32 years younger I’d let you teach me a thing or two about phonetic awareness. So, at first I was relieved to learn from Mrs. Rogers that Jack has a strong recognition and application of rhyming words which to me indicated that he has inherited the M.C. Shadöe gene. However, it was while I was picturing Jack in an Adidas sweat suit and matching Kangol hat that she told us that when last tested there were certain letters that Jack had some difficulty recognizing. We were directed to the appropriate section of the assessment sheet and sure enough, under “Letters that your child does not recognize:” were the lost characters of Jack’s alphabet.
D, G, L, O, Q, T, V, and Z.

By: Deanna MascleLearning the alphabet is a key part of your child's education especially when it comes to learning to read and write. It is important that children learn not only to recite the letters in order, but also to recognize letters out of sequence. In addition, after mastering basic recognition, children will need to learn the sounds each letter represents and how to write it.While many parents recognize how important learning the alphabet is to their child they are not always sure how to go about teaching the alphabet to their child. Many parents spend a lot of money on expensive products and programs designed to teach the alphabet but that really isn't necessary and in fact may well be counterproductive.As a literate adult you don't need any tools, programs or books to help you in your quest to teach the ABCs to your child. You already possess all you need in your head (your own knowledge of the alphabet) and in your house. There are three simple keys to teaching your ch
The Alphabet from A to Y With Bonus Letter Z!
Wild and crazy guy Steve Martin like all other actors who think that by putting your name on any book will garnish oodles of money in your bank account is trying his luck in the children’s book market. With the help of New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast, we are blessed with yet another ABC book. I guess with a full career in the can, why not over populate the kid’s market with an ABC book. Must be a sure sign of an imploding career, no work so let’s write a few scribbles and call that a book. K is for kaching and c is for cynicism and cash too.
The ABCs have never had it so good. Created by two of today’s wittiest, most imaginative minds, The Alphabet from A to Y with Bonus Letter Z! is a sheer delight from A to Z. In twenty-six alliterative couplets, Steve Martin conjures up much more than mere apples and zebras. Instead we meet Horace the hare, whose hairdo hides hunchbacks, and Ollie the owl, who
