    behind him. Achilles was in a war and did have some one on one combat‚ but ultimately killed a lot more than Beowulf had. Beowulf also got a great prize after defeating the demons‚ which was becoming King. Achilles will only have his name remembered forever‚ yet this is still an honor. Another big difference is their attitudes; Achilles was selfish at times and would only fight for what he believed in and only himself‚ where Beowulf crossed lands to help a king and not only himself. Achilles and Beowulf

    in the means of varying my idiolect is social networking. Abbreviations like “LOL” and “ROFL” appear to be making their way into everyday teenager dialects around the world including mine. I have noticed that I currently use “LOL” often to let others recognise when I find something humorous. What I perceive from this is that I only use this abbreviation around my friends primarily because of the formal and informal parting of my idiolect between my friends and people like my teachers and parents.
