Download or read book Meaning written by Betty J. Birner and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-31 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Meaning addresses the fundamental question of human language interaction: what it is to mean, and how we communicate our meanings to others. Experienced textbook writer and eminent researcher Betty J. Birner gives balanced coverage to semantics and pragmatics, emphasizing interactions between the two, and discusses other fields of language study such as syntax, neurology, philosophy of language, and artificial intelligence in terms of their interfaces with linguistic meaning. Comics and diagrams appear throughout to keep the reader engaged; and end-of-chapter quizzes, data-collection exercises, and opinion questions are employed along with more traditional exercises and discussion questions. In addition, the book features copious examples from real life and current events, along with boxes describing linguistic issues in the news and interesting and accessible research on topics like swearing, politics, and animal communication. Students will emerge ready for deeper study in semantics and pragmatics – and more importantly, with an understanding of how all of these fields serve the fundamental purpose of human language: the communication of meaning. Meaning is an ideal textbook for courses in linguistic meaning that focus on both semantics and pragmatics in equal parts, with special attention on philosophical questions, related subfields of linguistics, and interfaces among these various areas. Appropriate for both undergraduate and graduate-level courses in semantics, pragmatics, and general linguistics, Meaning is essential reading for all students of linguistic meaning.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some secrets were never meant to be uncovered... Maggie May Martin hasn’t always been the most reliable woman in the world, and she isn’t the friendliest either, but she tries her hardest to be a good mom. Most days, she falls short on that too, but her three girls mean the world to her and she genuinely tries to do the best by them—so when she goes missing, they’re the first to notice and the only ones who seem to care... Meghan Marie Martin hates the small town she was born and raised in and she can’t wait until she leaves for the Air Force after graduation. Her only concern is leaving behind her irresponsible mother and her two little sisters. Meghan has practically raised them on her own and she only hopes that when she leaves for the military, her mother will finally pull it together. The problem, of course, is that her mother likes to party, so when Maggie May goes missing, Meghan not only has to take care of everything at home, but she also has to search for her mother, because Maggie May has a bad habit of disappearing, so no one else is officially looking. That is until Meghan begins to receive mysterious messages, almost as if someone or something is guiding her to a haunted hotel in Manhattan, where people say an elevator game will take riders to the mysterious 13th floor. Some say it’s an entrance to hell, others a portal to another dimension. Either way, Meghan must brave the game in hopes of discovering the truth behind her mother’s disappearance.

Download or read book Songs About Jenny written by Thomas Darlington and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-01-26 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if soulmates are real? If so, wouldn’t God want them to find each other early in life? Jason fell in love with Jenny the first time he saw her, and in time she returned his love. They knew from the very start they were soulmates. They fell in love during high school, while they were still innocent, and they never moved on to other relationships. They married at nineteen and shared a long life, staying together through thick and thin. Is their story too perfect—too cliché to be believable? Does it lack the pain, tension, drama, and other elements expected of an epic romance? Perhaps their story can serve as an example to the world, showing others the value of innocence, the beauty of commitment, and the necessity of forgiveness? Perhaps their story can bear witness to the power of pure young love nurtured throughout a lifetime? As you turn the pages of this fictional soulmate memoir, you will find answers to all these questions. Your belief in soulmates will be rekindled. And you, too, will fantasize about your innocent young love that was, your profound true love that is, or your awesome eternal love that may be.
Download or read book Life and Love in Nazi Prague written by Marie Bader and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prague, 1940-1942. The Nazi-occupied city is locked in a reign of terror under Reinhard Heydrich. The Jewish community experience increasing levels of persecution, as rumours start to swirl of deportation and an unknown, but widely feared, fate. Amidst the chaos and devastation, Marie Bader, a widow age 56, has found love again with a widower, her cousin Ernst Löwy. Ernst has fled to Greece and the two correspond in a series of deeply heartfelt letters which provide a unique perspective on this period of heightening tension and anguish for the Jewish community. The letters paint a vivid, moving and often dramatic picture of Jewish life in occupied Prague, the way Nazi persecution affected Marie, her increasingly strained family relationships, as well as the effect on the wider Jewish community whilst Heydrich, one of the key architects and executioners of the Holocaust and Reich Protector in Bohemia and Moravia, established the Theresienstadt ghetto and began to organize the deportation of Jews. Through this deeply personal and moving account, the realities of Jewish life in Heydrich's Prague are dramatically revealed.
Download or read book Who s in Your Room Revised and Updated written by Stewart Emery and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People may be out of your life, but they're still in your head. Learn how to control the ongoing psychological impact of all your relationships and achieve happiness, success, and fulfillment. Who's in Your Room? is a metaphor and a method for understanding how our relationships, past and present, impact our lives. Imagine that you live your entire life in one room. Inside are all the people with whom you have ever had a relationship. The room is infinitely large, and anyone you let in will be in your room for the rest of your life. Neurologists report that as far as your brain is concerned, the metaphor is real-memories and emotions continue to influence you, for better or worse, long after their external cause has disappeared. So who do you want in your room? Stewart Emery, a pioneer of the human potential movement, and Ivan Misner, known as the father of modern business networking, present a highly effective process for determining who should be in your room, where in the room they should be (close to the door or off in a corner?), and how to shape your room to reflect your values and your life's purpose. This tool has unlimited usefulness for taking control of your life.
