Will not stay still” T. S. Elliot The English lexicon is changing and always will change. Discuss with reference to contemporary Australian English. Whether it is the creation of the new or the dying out of the old‚ the shortening of one or the blending of two‚ words and their semantics are forever transforming. The English language‚ as with all “living‚” i.e.‚ currently spoken‚ read‚ and/or written‚ languages are constantly changing. But that change only happens as people use the language‚

depiction of the Roman Empire in its "Golden Age." Some of the tiniest details of this time period have been observed and recreated skillfully‚ yet some major issues have been completely altered or tweaked.

Our Changing World Was it only a decade ago that a blackberry was a mere summer fruit? That green was just a colour‚ and reality TV was that one show sandwiched between music videos on MTV? There were‚ of course‚ huge political and social upheavals that roiled our world in the past decade. But there were also the gradual lifestyle changes that you don’t always notice happening – quite like watching a child grow older.

Analysis For the film analysis assignment I chose to watch the movie “Gladiator.” With any modern day movie one runs the risk of finding flaws in the historical accuracy. Most modern historical films have been adjusted to fit Hollywood standards thus compromising the historical accuracy.

We know the Gladiators

“Honey‚ I’m Home” now doesn’t even have a gender orientation to it‚ but only 30 years ago it referred to the “bread-winner” (the man of the house) coming home after a long day of work greeting his wife. This idea of male dominance is shown in the text Mirror on America‚ in the picture where the groom is holding his wife who is drastically smaller than him‚ showing some sort of dominance a male has over a female (63). It is also shown in the picture where the man looks like he came home from a long

political gain — collectively termed ‘historical negationism’ by the French historian Henry Rousso. History can become a weapon‚ as is seen in the past and the present‚ from the Nazis to North Korea. The mass falsification of history throughout the twentieth century by totalitarian nations such as Nazi Germany and the USSR is one clear example of how historical negationism can become a tactic of dangerous regimes‚ and pose a threat

The painful truth is our world is changing and it may vary well be our fault. The temperature is rising polar summers are getting longer and longer and landfills continue to grow. These are all affects of our gluttonous ways taking more of what we already have driving around aimlessly and littering. I believe that these need to stop. People say change isn’t easy it takes time but mankind has been changing for thousands of years adapting to the world around us. However some people have changed or
