I agree, but Genocide (The killing of your own people) is something the american people don't let off their minds with ease (most of us are just afraid of getting into another war, which we don't need). I understand you and the people around you wanting to get rid of him yourself, but that is easier said then done! Exspecially when most of the power is on his side (For now, or was atleast). I hope everything is going good with you at the moment, and my thoughts go with you and your people. Peace out!!
Hello , yeah been a while I guess . I don't know whether I should transfer good or bad news coz I have both , hopefully things will end in a good pleasing way .People now are fighting trying to take off that fool and now some of the army turned with the protesters' side which might be taken as a good point at least to make the people have a bit of control. The number of the dead won't please you especially when the president depends on outsiders "African mercenaries" monsters more likely who kill and destroy the innocent people . Everyone knows the best is to make him leave because no king ever no matter how bad he is wants to finish his people which means he is crazy and no more able to rule the county .Nevertheless we Never allow America or any foreign country to get themselves into our business no matter what cause they will never make any reforms specially when they've just built Iraq!
Hey Himi! It's been awhile since I sent you a VM, so I thought I would stop by, and see how thing's are going? Hope everything is well, and my best regards go to the people of libya. I sure wish Obama would have went to congress, and did it the right way, but what can you do. Our government Lie's to us about almost everything, so it's hard to know the truth. I do hope he is doing it for the civilians of libya though, and not just for foreign oil.
Hey Black Walts long time no see . How have you been and how is life doing with you ? I must say I have graduated , thank Allah , and I'de like to thank you for you helped me out in my study. enjoy your summer ja'a ne
About the information yeas some are alittle bit away from the real subject but I will have the speech problems and their reasons thanks and I thought I didn't reward you ^_* here is something different and I'de like to hear your opinion Dozo
hahaha okay okay I just wanted to say thanks but I don't feel like I have to say only thanks coz you did great actually ^_* about the information don't worry I will take care of them
No problem, I will tell you like I tell everyone else, I am always happy to help a friend! I don't think all the information I gave you is usable (especially that first site I gave you) but most of it should come in handy. Like I said I was half asleep while typing it, so if some of it doesn't make sense i am sorry. Good luck on your paper Himi, and take care! Peace! Edit: And don't be sorry, I gave you my time on my own, not by you forcing me!
I am soooooooooooory for having that much of your precious time Black Walts thank u so much , I really donno what to say coz I only asked for your opinion but since you did all that I have to be greatful , don't worry all what you've mentioned would be written in my paper just I will have to read it carefully and give you my opinion really thanks again I wish you good luck in college and do your best ^_*
I hope this helped, and I apologize if it doesn't. I have been up for the last 19 hours, and I work night shift, so I am getting a bit sleepy! Edit: I am doing just fine thank you! Work and school has kept me pretty busy over the last couple of weeks, but other then that I have nothing to complain about!
Different Sound Systems The sound system of every language, or its phonological system, is unique. Each language uses a subset of the sounds that are part of all human languages, and each language groups these sounds in different ways. (This is how it was when I was teaching my friend from Honduras to speak English) Learning to read in English and other languages that use an alphabetic system requires you to understand the relationship between letters (graphemes) and the distinctive sounds (phonemes) of a language. Bilingual people, especially those whose dominant language is NOT English, may not be able to distinguish all the distinctive sounds of English and so, will find it more difficult to master English literacy skills. Ex: In English, we distinguish between the sounds /e/ as in the word beet and /i/ as in bit. This is a very useful distinction in English and many words are distinguished just by these two sounds (e.g. chip ~ cheap /hit ~ heat /lick ~ leak, and many more). It so happens that the sound in “bit” is relatively rare in the world’s languages and so many languages, like Spanish, do not have this sound. That’s why many Spanish speakers who are learning English have difficulty both in making (production) and understanding (comprehension) the sound. Now let's say that you are a child whose dominant language is Spanish, yet you are expected to become literate in English. It will be very difficult, for you to grasp the difference between words such as chip and cheap if they sound the same to you! (For instance I tried to get him to say "Thomas" and he would say "Thumas") Different Spelling Systems Ex: The /ô/ sound in the English word father—in Spanish, that sound is represented by the letter a (as in padre, Spanish for father) but in many varieties of American English, this sound is represented by the letter o (as in hot, not, or pop). (It's also due to the fact that Spanish speakers roll their tongue a lot more when speaking then we do.) Different Writing Systems In some cases, people may have first acquired a language with a different writing system from English. There are three types of writing systems: alphabetic, syllabic, and logographic. Many languages, such as English, French, Russian, Arabic, and Hindi, employ alphabetic writing systems. This means that letters of the alphabet correspond to phonemes, or distinctive sounds in a language. people who have become literate in an alphabetic language before entering an English language classroom already understand the alphabetic principle of sound–symbol relations and so will be able to transfer their knowledge to learning to read in English. Of course, some languages use different alphabets. The English language uses the Roman alphabet. Languages such as Arabic, Hebrew, and Korean use other alphabetic systems. This not withstanding, if a person has already learned to read in one of these languages, they will understand how alphabets work. Some languages, such as Japanese or Amharic (spoken in Ethiopia), use syllabic writing systems. In languages such as these, symbols represent entire syllables rather than individual sounds. For example, in Japanese, the syllables KA, KE, KI, KO, and KU would each be represented by a different symbol rather than by two symbols, as in English. People who are literate in syllabic systems may have more difficulty dividing words into phonemes than those who have already mastered an alphabetic writing system. Chinese and Japanese both use a logographic writing system. In logographic systems, symbols do not represent phonetic elements of words. Rather, they are like “pictures” of the words they represent. To be literate in Japanese, a student has to learn about 1,800 of these characters, which in Japanese are known as kanji. Those who have first learned to read in these systems will need the most amount of support in acquiring the alphabetic principle and may have difficulty with both syllable segmentation and phoneme segmentation. Different Words The very nature of bilingual proficiency means that many bilingual people weave both of their languages together in speech. Ex: “Marisol, ¿ya viste donde puse los paper clips? Los necesito para el mailing que hago.” (“Marisol, did you see where I put the PAPER CLIPS? I need them for the MAILING that I’m doing.”) This type of mixing is typical of much bilingual speech because being bilingual usually also means being bicultural—living in two cultural worlds—and bilingual language is a reflection of this. In terms of learning to read, this may mean that the lexicon, or mental vocabulary, of the teacher might not be as broad as monolingual student. (Sorry I'm using Spanish so much for examples, but this is the only language other then English that I kinda know.)
Okay just a sec and I will have my personal view.
Some Common Speech Disorders Stuttering is a problem that interferes with fluent speech. A person who stutters may repeat the first part of a word (as in wa-wa-wa-water) or hold a single sound for a long time (as in caaaaaaake). Some people who stutter have trouble getting sounds out altogether. Stuttering is complex, and it can affect speech in many different ways. Cluttering is another problem that makes a person's speech difficult to understand. Like stuttering, cluttering affects the fluency, or flow, of a person's speech. However, the difference is that cluttering is a language disorder, while stuttering is a speech disorder. A person who stutters has trouble getting out what they want to say, and a person who clutters says what they are thinking, but it becomes disorganized while actually speaking. Because of this disorganization, someone who clutters may speak in bursts or pause in unexpected places. The rhythm of cluttered speech may sound jerky, rather than smooth, and the speaker is often unaware of the problem. Articulation disorders encompass a wide range of errors people can make when talking. Substituting a "w" for an "r" ("wabbit" for "rabbit"), omitting sounds ("cool" for "school"), or adding sounds to words ("pinanio" for "piano") are examples of articulation errors. Lisping refers to specific substitution involving the letters "s" and "z." A person who lisps replaces those sounds with "th." Apraxia (dyspraxia), also known as oral-motor speech disorder, is a problem with motor coordination or motor planning. A person with this speech problem has difficulty moving the muscles and structures necessary to form speech sounds into words. What Causes Speech Problems? Normal speech might seem effortless, but it's actually a complex process that requires precise timing, nerve, and muscle control. When we speak, we must coordinate many muscles from various body parts and systems, including the larynx, which contains the vocal cords; the teeth, lips, tongue, and mouth; and the respiratory system. The ability to understand language and produce speech is coordinated by the brain. So a person with brain damage from an accident, stroke, or birth defect may have speech and language problems. Apraxia is thought to be due to a brain impairment that may or may not show up on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) tests. Some people with speech problems, particularly articulation disorders, may have hearing problems. Even mild hearing loss may have an impact on how a person reproduces the sounds they hear. Certain birth defects, such as a cleft palate, can interfere with someones ability to produce speech. When a person has a cleft palate there is a hole in the roof of the mouth, which affects the movement of air through the oral and nasal passages. There also may be problems with other structures needed for speech, including the lips, teeth, and jaw. Genetics may also play a role in some speech problems. For example, stuttering seems to run in some families. But in some cases, no one knows exactly what causes a person to have speech problems. This is just a bit of info I pulled from this site, and I am pulling info from sites because they can write better sentence structures then I can. (Which will help you more) Here's the link Speech Problems Give me a little while, and I will find some better information.
Hey Black Walts how are you doing ? I want alittle bit of your time to help me out with my new paper which is about Problems of language fluency ,what problems learner face to have fluency, anything u have ,I need your personal view about it , what it means to u from what you've noticed by dealing with those whose language isn't english like me.. anything is acceptable coz I'm gonna take different opinions to support my paper and thanks to u in advance for cooperation ^_^
