Piano music courtesy of Harpeth Presbyterian Church -- used with permission.Word Trivia sends a daily message to my inboxUsually, it's a daily word definition however, each Friday it's a longer “article” on the peculiarities of this language we call English. Today it was those pesky Homonyms that dot our linguistic landscape. I know I can hear the shouts in the background “They're homophones”.  Yes, I suppose I'm out of step with current usage, but I never accepted the concept of Language Arts as opposed to teaching English.  After all, I'm not ashamed of speaking English and it's a matter of self-respect to speak correctly.Homonyms & synonyms too remain a problem for Seri (and no doubt Alexa).

Anonymity - the state of being anonymous or unknown. It comes from the Greek word "anonymos" which means "without a name". Pseudonym - a fictitious name used by an author to conceal their identity. It comes from the Greek words "pseudēs" meaning "false" and "onoma" meaning "name". Incognito - in a disguised or anonymous state. It comes from the Latin phrase "incognito" which means "unknown" or "unrecognized". Unidentified - not recognized or known. It comes from the Latin word "identificare" which means "to identify". Nameless - without a name or unknown. It comes from the Old English word "nama" which means "name". Faceless - without a recognizable face or identity. It comes from the Old English word "fǣhth" which means "face". Nominal - actual definition: existing in name only, not in reality; etymological definition: from Latin "nominalis," meaning "of or belonging to a name" Denomination - actual definition: a religious group or organization; etymological definition: from Latin "denominatio," meaning "a calling by name" Nomenclature - actual definition: a system of names used in a particular field or subject; etymological definition: from French "nomenclature," ultimately from Latin "nomenclatura," meaning "the assigning of names" Pronoun - actual definition: a word that replaces a noun in a sentence; etymological definition: from Latin "pronomen," meaning "a word that takes the place of a noun" Ignominy - actual definition: public shame or disgrace; etymological definition: from Latin "ignominia," meaning "a loss of one's good name" "Antonym" comes from the Greek words "anti," meaning "opposite," and "onyma," meaning "name."

It refers to words that have the same or similar meanings, like big and large. "Homonym" comes from the Greek words "homo," meaning "same," and "onyma," meaning "name."

Today brings us what was listed as March 11th, 1994 but turned out to be APRIL 11th, 1994. So instead of combing through the Vault for an appropriate March date I figured we should just roll with it and because of that a title was spawned: Misdated Madness It’s a DBG that has a few side conversations that are a lot of fun. Players: Brian Mark in Hudson I’m on the phone from home Keith Shields producing and playing in studio Rob Floyd from WBZ’s 24-hour traffic network and marching society band. Bdays: Ethel Kennedy Joel Grey Ellen Goodman Louise Lasser Oleg Cassini History: What year was Napoleon Bonaparte banished to the Island of Elba? What year was Jackie Robinson signed as the first black player to play for a major league team? How about a bday from April 12th? Tiny Tim – hang on…he will not be tip toeing through the tulips So the game wraps with David Letterman. Other goofiness: Norm tells his moving story of how he lost his Congressional Medal of Honor Silly Pooks Norm will be in for Bob that week but a mystery lady, Victoria Jones will be subbing for a couple of days too. Bubbling out of your undershorts Norm has been Middleton Town Moderator since 1978! Term limits anyone? We do get a little insight in to Middleton’s small-town politics.

Hello! It's Anchisa from the Ling app here to teach you another lesson!!

Episode 548: Brett has a snake retraction. Does Andrew hate crawdads or crawfish? Homonym or homophone? Deer attack! Bear attack! Shark attack! Throwing Momma from a train. Latin root quiz. Dumb shower thoughts from Puke about autonomous cars and drinking. Andrew helps Brett decide on a new car. Mercedes, Volvo, Buick, Mazda, or minivan? BREAKING NEWS from Nick!

The words “love“ and “hate“ are very strong words. To be fair, I don‘t actually love or hate any part of learning the Icelandic language but those words work much better in a title than what I “enjoy the most“ and what I “strongly dislike“. So, just take those words with a big grain salt. Regarding some backstory, I have been learning Icelandic off and on since I moved in 2016. It certainly has not been a linear journey, and I‘ve had many ups and downs but progress is happening. 5 Things I Love About Learning Icelandic Having a secret language you can speak around the world. Most people don't know the language and being able to speak the language around others without them know what you are saying is pretty cool. There are unusual sounds, such as thedouble ll sound and I enjoy trying to mimic these sounds You have the tools to be able to read Old Icelandic. The language has evolved slowly enough that the current language gives you the ability to read Old Icelandic text, like reading something from the 12th century Interesting insight into the culture. For instance, there are a lot of words for snow  like hundslappadrífa (snow flakes that are big like dog paws), Snædís (snow fairy or snow goddess), and so on. When I do speak Icelandic to someone who knows the language well or grew up speaking it, they are delighted to hear that I am learning. The language learning journey has been difficult for me at time, so any and all encouragement is greatly appreciated. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlAApXyLIJQ 5 Things I Hate About Learning Icelandic Icelandic Grammar can be complicated because there are four cases Nouns, adjectives and pronouns are declined in these cases. There are also several genders and that makes a big difference too. Numbers from 1-4 are also a pain in the butt sometimes Remembering how to decline properly can really trip you up I used to only make simple sentences for a while because I was so worried about making a mistake with the grammar Use the example of a horse A Horse – hestur (nominative) About a Horse – um hest (accusative) From a horse – frá hesti (dative) To a horse – til hests (genitive) There are a decent amount of exceptions in the language that can be a little frustrating too. This happens with nouns and verbs. Sometimes there is a not a clear answer as to why that is the case. Sometimes if I ask for an explanation about something, my teacher will just say af því bara ( just because). I sometimes sound hesitant when I speak because I am not sure if I said it correctly. An example is if I want to say ég fór til Reykjavíkur, my inflection might sound like there is a question mark at the end because I am not sure if what I wanted to say is correct. Homynoyms in Icelandic can be confusing, at times. Bóndinn á Á á á á á The farmer at a farm called Á has an Ewe by a river Homonyms can make it tricky Icelanders like to practice their English and can easily switch over to speaking English or they want to feel like they are helping you when they hear that you do not speak the language well It can also be that  they think the person sucks at the language (LOL) To combat this, I try to let people know I am practicing Icelandic so they don't immediately switch to English https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkYrJpUFp9k Random Fact of the Episode Eiríkur Rögnvaldsson, professor emeritus of Icelandic linguistics, wrote in an article that he would like unions to push for employers to bear the cost of teaching foreign employees Icelandic. Icelanders need to get used to others learning the subject We are used to being a monolingual nation. It's been a while since there were very few foreigners here. In the past, there were merchants and officials who spoke strange Icelandic, and people made fun of it," Eiríkur Rögnvaldsson Tweet Icelanders are not used to people learning Icelandic and not speaking it perfectly.

Since Cents & Sense

Open description for time stamps. Welcome to my Passion Project! Where real scholars test the wild claims of Brian Simmons about his new Bible, The Passion Translation, so that YOU can know what's really going on with this suddenly popular new Bible version. Today's video features Dr. Douglas Moo and his thoughts after reviewing the book of Romans. Dr. Moo has invested much of his scholarly life on the book of Romans and I am so excited to have such an expert weigh in on The Passion Translation. There's a link below to where I will put ALL the reviews and papers as they are published. You should see a total of 5 uploaded by mid-January. After that I will need to wait a while for more scholars to finish their papers and do interviews. I hope to have it all done in the next few months. What's was my goal with this? I want the people of Christ to know the truth about this "translation" so that they can love what God has said without Brian Simmons altering it in unjustified ways. However, in the course of researching for this project I've uncovered some other very concerning things about Brian Simmons' teachings including false prophecy and various extreme claims regarding his own spiritual experiences. I'll be sharing some of this in future videos as well since I have realized that he is not just styling himself as a Bible translator but as an inspired Bible interpreter who is going to release a last days transformation in the people of God so that "everything that can be said about Jesus can be said about you".
