Are the words monosyllabic or polysyllabic? Do the words have interesting or unusual connotations? Is the diction formal, colloquial, slang, didactic, etc? Is there any change in the level of diction in the passage? What can the reader infer about the speaker or the speaker’s attitude from the word choice, and how does it connect to tone?
OPNET Preparation Spread Spectrum Transmission Comparison Introduction to Spread Spectrum Transmission * What is it? Why is it important? What issues are addressed? How does it work?

It is considered a dialect of English and not a separate language. I have found in my research of Ebonics that there are many types of English. This is why Ebonics is thought to be slang when it is really a dialect. It works much like English language but with little differences. The biggest difference is that of the sound th, in Ebonics the th sound is d. So words like “those” are pronounced “dose”.
1. How do Eckert & McConnell-Ginet define the phonological level of language? What is an example of a phonological feature that we generally think of as (perhaps stereotypically) signifying a particular gendered way of speaking? (You can either use the example given by the authors or provide your own.) The phonological level of language in the reading is defined as a level of language that structures the units of sound (or of gesture in the case of signed language) that constitute linguistic form.
SEMISTER 2 : ASSIGNMENT 1 ENG 1502 NAME: PETER DENEKE STUDENT NUMBER: 54005221 UNIQUE NUMBER: 844354 DATE: 9SEP2014 Question 1 I Government II Agreement III Particularly IV Prioritized V Pronunciation explain these problems One reason for pronunciation difficulties are because of the way syllables are stressed√. A word is normally stressed on the first syllable. Exception are words with suffixes ( -ity or –ion) or prefixes (like con-dis). The second reason is the way a phoneme in a word is pronounced, when it comes to a vowel or consonant.too vague Some people want to sound every letter in a word, and are not aware that some letters that come in pairs are represented by one sound during pronunciation√ or that some sounds
By glancing at text H and G, we can see that the format of both texts is an advert and the main purpose of both texts is to persuade. This is evident through the heavy use of adjectives such as ‘brighter’, ‘lighter’ in text H and ‘high’, ‘big’ in text G. However it must be noted that the type of adjectives used within text H are concise in terms of their meaning, for example ‘lighter’ whereas in text G, adjectives such as ‘big’ are used which are broad and this pragmatically can be interpreted by the reader in different ways as there is no uniform scale of how big is big. Also, the use of declaratives in both texts also provides the assumption that both texts are indeed designed to persuade, for example, in text H it says ‘more capacious’ and in text G it says ‘high efficiency engine...lively acceleration’. The use of declaratives makes the reader aware of the features of the car throughout both texts and therefore sways them further into liking the cars. Pronouns such as ‘you’ are used within text H, similarly they are used in text G, ‘it’.
You have a number of choices through the language choices you make e.g., whether you use first or third person, the use of dialogue, description used (remember that verbs are often more important than adjectives!!) .

to show place and manner of articulation, as well as detailed charts that describe the manner of articulation and whether sounds are voiced, voiceless, aspirated or no aspiration. Based on all these distinctions they have developed symbols to represent a particular sound. Sounds or phones are represented with square brackets and are the basic units that are studied in phonetics. Phoneticians have used subtle differences to distinguish sounds and have created a comprehensive chart to show symbols for different sounds known as the IPA. Phonology on the other hand studies the abstract aspect of sounds.
