Thanks to digital media, the days of floppy disks are behind us, but even beyond storage devices, we still need something to describe flat, circular objects. This is where disc and disk come in. Although the two terms mean the same thing and are interchangeable, they have some slight nuances that you should be aware of.
From Bugs to Roger to Peter, popular culture is full of famous rabbits. Or are they bunnies? Or are we just splitting hares? While bunny is a cuter name for rabbits, rabbits and hares are completely different species.
Would anyone know how to interchange words, like I have in my example? I'd like to achieve this by using HTML/CSS instead of uploading a video or GIF.
I'd also like the "sensual/powerful" descriptive words to be in H2 and the rest of the sentence in H1, as shown in the example.
An intuitivecharacterizationof intentionality is as follows: (a) A state is intentionalif it "points outside of itself", if it is characterized by"aboutness"; (b) An intentional state may be "about", it may "point to"somethingthat doesn't exist; (c) An intentional state may be aboutsomethingunder one description, but not under another description.
(1) With regard to the second of these three features, supposethat the basketball coach wants a center who is over eight feettall. The mental state of wanting a center who is over eight feet "pointsoutsideof itself", but what it is "about" - a center who is over eight feettall-may not in fact exist.
(2) With regard to the third feature, suppose that thebasketballcoach would like to find the tallest person on campus. Suppose,further,that the tallest person on campus is identical with the coach's mostseverecritic, and the greatest serial killer of basketball coaches inhistory. It may very well not be the case that the basketball coach would liketofind his most severe critic, and the greatest serial killer ofbasketballcoaches in history.
Points (b) and (c) in thepreceding characterization of intentionality will be clearer, I think,if they are set out against the background of a distinction, withinphilosophyof language, between extensional and intensionalcontextswithin sentences.
What does it mean to saythat two terms are co-referential? The answer is thatthisis just to say that they refer to the very same object. Sosupposethat Sandra is Suzanne's older sister. Then the name "Sandra" andthe description "Suzanne's older sister" refer to one and the sameperson. So those two expressions are co-referential. To say that theplaceoccupied by the term "Sandra" in the above sentence is extensional isthento say that if the above sentence is true, then the sentence thatresultswhen the term "Sandra" is replaced by the expression "Suzanne's oldersister"- namely, the sentence
The same applies to theothertwo contexts. So suppose that the ball in question was the thingthat Mark found at the swimming pool, and that the boy across thestreetis the most radical dude in Boulder. Then the two expressions"theball", and "the thing that Mark found at the swimming pool" areco-referentialexpressions - they refer to one and the same object, and, similarly,forthe two expressions, "the boy across the street", and "the most radicaldude in Boulder".
As the sentences aboutbeliefsillustrate, some sentences attributing mental states to a personinvolveintensional contexts. This is true not only in the case ofbeliefs,but also in the case of desires, thoughts, hopes, fears, etc., as thefollowingsentences illustrate:
The idiomatic "is X, as is Y" makes whatever applies to X also apply to Y. We're not told what "them" refers to, but suppose that it's stressors. Then the sentence says that memory (a noun) and general cognitive processes (i.e, "thinking [processes] more generally" (a gerund phrase used as a noun) are both influenced by stress.
In either case, you've got something represented by the "which" being or doing something, and there must be an antecedent to attach to the "which." The likely candidate by proximity is the pronoun "them," but that's not possible because "them" is plural and the verb in the clause ("is") is singular. The only other noun is "Memory," but that makes no sense: memory isn't thinking more generally, and memory can't do thinking by itself.
An assertive sentence is transformed into an interrogative sentence by interchanging the position of the subject and the verb. The question, however, has to be negative if the assertive sentence is positive and should be positive if the assertive sentence is negative. Also remember to end the interrogative sentence with a question mark.
Metathesis (/məˈtθəsɪs/ mə-TATH-ə-siss; from Greek μετάθεσις, from μετατίθημι "I put in a different order"; Latin: transpositio) is the transposition of sounds or syllables in a word or of words in a sentence. Most commonly, it refers to the interchange of two or more contiguous segments or syllables, known as adjacent metathesis[1] or local metathesis:[2]
Metathesis may also involve interchanging non-contiguous sounds, known as nonadjacent metathesis, long-distance metathesis,[1] or hyperthesis,[3] as shown in these examples of metathesis sound change from Latin to Spanish:
Many languages have words that show this phenomenon, and some even use it as a regular part of their grammar, such as Hebrew and Fur. The process of metathesis has altered the shape of many familiar words in English as well.
The original form before metathesis may be deduced from older forms of words in the language's lexicon or, if no forms are preserved, from phonological reconstruction. In some cases it is not possible to settle with certainty on the original version.
Dionysius of Halicarnassus was a historian and scholar in rhetoric living in 1st century BC Greece. He analysed classical texts and applied several revisions to make them sound more eloquent. One of the methods he used was re-writing documents on a mainly grammatical level: changing word and sentence orders would make texts more fluent and "natural", he suggested. He called this way of re-writing metathesis.[citation needed]
In ASL, several signs which have a pre-specified initial and final location in reference to the body of the person signing (such as the signs RESTAURANT, PARENT, or TWINS) can have the order of these two locations reversed in contexts which seem to be purely phonological. While not possible with all signs, this does happen with quite a few. For example, the sign DEAF, prototypically made with the "1" handshape making contact first with the cheek and then moving to contact the jaw (as in the sentence FATHER DEAF), can have these locations reversed if the preceding sign, when part of the same constituent, has a final location more proximal to the jaw (as in the sentence MOTHER DEAF). Both forms of the sign DEAF are acceptable to native signers.[4] A proposed prerequisite for metathesis to apply in ASL is that both signs must be within the same region on the body. Constraints on the applications of metathesis in ASL has led to discussions that the phonology breaks down the body into regions distinct from settings.[5]
Amharic has a few minor patterns of metathesis, as shown by Wolf Leslau.[6] For example, "matches" [kəbrit] is sometimes pronounced as [kərbit], [mogzit] "nanny" is sometimes pronounced as [mozgit]. The word "Monday" is [sɲo], which is the base for "Tuesday" [maksɲo], which is often metathesized as [maskɲo]. All of these examples show a pair of consonants reversed so that the stop begins the next syllable.
In the Kurdish language, there are many examples of metathesis, as both forms are used until now, the pre-inverted form and the post-inverted form (depending on the regions).[clarification needed]
Deliberate metathesis also occurs extensively in the informal French pattern of speech called verlan (itself an example: verlan < l'envers, meaning "the reverse" or "the inverse"). In verlan new words are created from existing words by reversing the order of syllables. Verlanization is applied mostly to two-syllable words and the new words that are created are typically considerably less formal than the originals, and/or take on a slightly different meaning. The process often involves considerably more changes than simple metathesis of two phonemes but this forms the basis for verlan as a linguistic phenomenon. Some of these words have become part of standard French.
Hebrew also features isolated historical examples of metathesis. For example, the words כֶּֽבֶשׂ keves[16] and כֶּֽשֶׂב kesev[17] (meaning "lamb") both appear in the Torah.
In case of a narrow range of Hungarian nouns, metathesis of a h sound and a liquid consonant occurs in nominative case, but the original form is preserved in accusative and other suffixed forms:[citation needed]
Loanwords can also be products of metathesis. The word tembikai "watermelon" is a metathesis of mendikai borrowed from Tamil: கம்மட்டக்கய், romanized: kommaṭṭikkāy.[22]
In Navajo, verbs have (often multiple) morphemes prefixed onto the verb stem. These prefixes are added to the verb stem in a set order in a prefix positional template. Although prefixes are generally found in a specific position, some prefixes change order by the process of metathesis.
Metathesis has been used to explain the development of thorn clusters in Proto-Indo-European (PIE). It is hypothesised in the non-Anatolian and non-Tocharian branch, a coronal followed by a dorsal *TK first assimilated to *TsK, and thereafter underwent metathesis to *KTs, so *TK > *TsK > *KTs.[23]
