Write a neat essay in 4 steps

You need to create an essay that makes people take notice...and quick...and fast.....
How?

I used persuasion map and became a fan. It forces you to think specifically about the topic.

You must take a stand first if you agree or not with the topic.
E.g. For a topic like "Ice creams are favourite to children " you decide if you agree or disagree....

You've to give two or three reasons that support your decision...

Give two facts to support each of your reasons.

Finally put a closing sentence.

You're ready now! With these 4 parts you can construct an essay easily..

Hepatic caecea

My student asked me what this was...when we were looking at a picture of protochordata....

I googled. It seems this is a body part of the protochords which acts like our liver. It helps digestion....secreting digestive enzymes.

Content Writing - 2

Hi
 Since I started content writing (about a week ago), this is what I've learned so far.....

1)  We should know our audience. I have feelings but I struggle to write them in such a way that it gets across to my bosses.

2) We should know English - verbal! This may look new, but, try explaining what you've written
-OR- putting words on paper and you will experience this.

3) We should have a VAST vocabulary at our command.

4) We should LOVE writing.

5) It'll be good if we write a diary or a weblog ; )


More later! See you all..

Regards

Sanskrit Declinables Part 2

The declinables are of 2 major types :-

1. The सुबन्त words or विभक्ति termination words. These are nouns, adjectives, pronouns and numerals. They change/decline based on how they are used in the sentence, (see the previous post "Sanskrit Declinables Part 1" for more information on the usage.)


2. The तिङन्त words or पुरुषप्रत्यय termination words. These are verbs, and they change/decline based on the subject’s person and plurality. Since there are 3 persons and 3 plural forms, the total forms that each tidantha word can take can be shown in a 3x3 matrix. For e.g. E.g., भव – to be

                    number

Sanskrit: Declinables - 1

The declinables are words which may change according to how they are being used in a sentence...that is......for example, if the word is the कर्तु पदः(Nominative) then it is pronounced differently than if it were the कर्म पदः (Objective). There are 8 cases of these words......and in each case, the word again declines(changes) depending on the plurality. This is depicted as a 8 by 3 matrix, for each word. Fortunately, for each word that ends in a specific vowel or consonant, the matrix remains the same. So, if we know how to form the cases and persons for Raama, then it is as good as knowing for all words that are pullingas and ending with the vowel a. (Like Shaama, Bheema etc.,)
 

E.g., अ कार अन्त पुल्लिन्ग रामः पद
