Deeds, not words shall speak me. \nJohn Fletcher\nEnglish dramatist (1579 - 1625) \n\nHe's saying that he will speak with action, not just by words themselves. Many people blow hot air, few go out and do something about it.

Very good. I personally would use another word for "tear" in the line "The smoke stings my eyes, and makes me tear" because it just sounds too convenient. I would use "aware." Other than that, I would never have guessed you were 12 when you wrote this. Do you have music for it?

Hi SimAlex--how about a suggestion from an Old Dog? (Just kidding.) These two aren't your only choices! Taking what you express as opposites, angry or passive, I wouldn't be either way.\nAnger is a waste of time, & passivity is, well, submissive, lacking in initiative. Yet when appropriate a little seasoning of "caustic" works, as well as there are times to be quiet. It so much depends on the situation with these last two. There are no "absolutes," do you think??

There is an ancient buy useful tool, a "dictionary" It really works..try it. Look up "gratuitous" and it will tell you what it means, really? Then remember that "non" means, "NOT"

I think you make some interesting points - words definitely have limitations for the definer and the interpretter.  Its always a rhetoric game and only real thieves hide behind definitions to justify their actions.  As for morality - this is not a truth - it is a social norm - and each society determines what is or isn't moral based on their level of consciousness.  As long as we are trapped in words - we are limiting our consciousness.

If you trim away everything you can, "respect" is the subject, and "requires" is the verb.\n\n"When in the Course... entitle them," can be completely chopped away and you will still have a complete sentence. It's a dependant clause, but I do not remember exactly what type any longer.\n\nThat leaves us with "A decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."\n\nIn that sentence, "A decent respect to the opinions of mankind" is a subject clause or complex subject. "A" is merely an article, "decent" is an adjective, and "to the opinions" and "of mankind" are both prepositional phrases, so structurally they can all go. \n\nNow we have "Respect requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation." Drop the prepositional phrase "to the separation" and we're left with, "Respect requires that they should declare the causes which impel them."  "The causes which impel them" is what is being declared, so it's objective, not subjective in nature.  Therefore, that goes too.\n\nNow we are only left with "Respect requires that they should declare."  In this short sentence, the word "that" is our big tip-off. It makes "they should declare" dependant on the phrase before it. In other words, "they should declare" is what is being required, and therefore dependant and objective, rather than subjective in nature. So the simplest sentence, subject-verb, is all we are left with: Respect requires.

I found the idea of this story quite intriguing and I have tried hard to find it but I can't think of any other way to search for it.  What is the "7407 course"?  Do  you have any way of contacting someone who has done it or who teaches it?  I think that's what I would try.\n\nI've included a few sites that you have probably already seen about misinterpreting gestures, but maybe they will be of some help.

This is obviously the work of an online translator - someone put in an English to Latin translation and got back that garbage.  Not even all of the words got translated, as you can see at least seven English words in there.  Those translators are just worthless - they can't tell the difference between a noun and a verb, nor can they decline nouns or conjugate the verbs.  They will give you the same word for "land" as in property and "land" as in an airplane, making the transition back into English nearly impossible to decipher.  The first sentence is a real mess.\n\nYou know its interesting I know that because the whole bulletin is place more popular I work not write whoever is worth a damn.  Plus no one can read Latin because it is funny, I just hope I get a response back!

You're telling it wrong. This is how it should go.\n\n"Think of words ending in -GRY. Angry and hungry are two. There are only three words in the English language. What is the third word? The word is something that everyone uses every day. If you have listened carefully, I have already told you what it is." \n \nAnd the answer is Language. "The English Language."

Total Physical Response (Dr. James J. Asher, the main book was called learning through action)\nYou say stand up.  You stand up.  You gesture for the class to stand up.  (if you speak their language, you can explain what you are doing in advance).\nYou say sit down.  You sit down.  The class sits down.\nThe mains steps:\nModel three commands (Stand up, sit down, hop, for example)\nDelay modelling (wait a sec to see if the class does the action)\nAdd three more, adding some adverbs (quickly, slowly, and some places, to the door, on the chair)\nNovel command (combine the commands in a way they haven't heard before to check for comprehension)\nChain command--three commands in a row in random order as quickly as you can.\nEyes closed.  Students shut eyes and act out command as you give them.  You can tell which ones are still not there.\n\nContent:\nAction verbs (take, put, walk, run, hop, turn, stand up, sit down, point, touch)\nAdverbs (slowly, quickly)\nnegative (be sure to use negative commands--don't put the pencil on the table, put the pencil on the shoe)\nCommon classroom nouns and adjectives (door, board, desk, table, student, teacher)\nclothing and colors (walk to the boy in the blue shirt and point at him)\nThere are books with lesson plans for a years worth of TPR (B. Segal and J. Asher) I generally work with it for two three weeks.  \nAfter a few days, your students will be dying to speak.  You can introduce either/or and yes/no questions, (Walk to the door.  Class, did Lucia walk to the door?  Did whe walk to the door or to the board.  That's right, Lucia didn't walk to the board, she walked to the door.) \nIt works very well for beginners in any language.

Is there a particular context you object to it in?  Resolve is a valid action if it's followed through.  Unfortunately, it seems as if it's used as a sound-byte to dance around a number of issues.  In that context - then yes - I am sick of hearing politicians using sound-bytes to explain things to the general public - as if we are so lacking in intelligence to understand.

This may be a little off in terms of funny but it is funny/odd. We all have heard the "f" word before & know that the term "f... you" is commonly used as a deragatory term, right? Do you, however, know what it means or where it comes from?\n\nWell, in the past, when people would go to confession, the phrase, "For Unsanctioned Carnal Knowledge" was written into the book where you would list your sins. That phrase means for knowledge of another outside the bonds of marriage, of course. Over time, the phrase was shortened to the word that some people hurl at each other in nasty ways today. Just think, you are mad at someone & cuss at them when, in reality, you are wishing them a VERY good time!\n\nThought you all might find it comical...I know WAY too many odd tidbits of information!

Well, you seem to have made a good start. May I just correct a couple of things so that you know for the next time...\n\nCollege (not collage.)\nbut (no put, put means to place or set something somewhere.)\nI want to be good at speaking and writing (the 'at' does make a difference!)\n\nMy next tip would be to avoid learning English from people on the internet (such as Answerers on Yahoo) because they tend to use incorrect English that cannot always be understood by other English speakers. Things like capitalizing 'I' (e.g. I was at the shop - NOT - i was at the shop.) or apostrophes (I'd like to buy an apple - NOT - Id like to buy an apple.)\n\nSo if you are going to use your computer to help you learn English, stick to sites that are dedicated and designed to teach English as a second language. You could try the following site:\n\nwww.learnersdictionary.com\n\nI'm not sure how good it is, but I know the English dictionary on it (found at www.m-w.com) is pretty good (just watch out for Americanizations, it is better to learn English first and not American-English (unless you do not intend to visit the UK) because it may annoy people from the UK to hear an American accent from someone who is learning English (this may not be general to all people, but I personally am one of those people.)

It is called a discourse analysis or critical textual analysis and it is complex issue. Many universities have a courses on it, so it is not so easy to give a couple of advices. However, the principle you can start with is to analyze sentence by sentence, word by word. First of all you need to define notions used in some speech like nation, democracy, freedom, collateral damage etc. Try to find their real meaning and compare its using in a concrete speech. You will be surprised how their meanings vary dependently of context they are used in and how authors manipulate with them. Good luck!

Very very tolerant and kind. I have heard this story before but I can't remember where. I believe it was back in school. Not all people need their "good deeds" to be rewarded. Some are kind, just for the sake of being kind.\n\nBut there was something else to this. A deeper lesson or meaning. I'm sorry to say that I can't remember what it was.
