Parts of Speech

When we speak or write English or any other language, we use sentence. Sentences are made up of words combined together and is meaningful. All words, especially in English, are divided into eight parts. These parts are also termed as Parts of speech.

So let us begin our lesson with 

                                                          Parts of Speech

Speech means the expressions of thoughts in words. In easy words we can't read people's heart or mind. Like you can't hear what people think, Can you? so we need expressions to describe our thoughts. Thus, the thoughts expressed in words while speaking or writing is called speech.

 The parts of speech are as follows: 
1) Noun
2) Pronoun
3)Adjective
4) Verb
5)Adverb
6)Preposition
7)Conjunction
8) Interjection

We shall learn more about parts of speech in our next lesson.

Nobel Prizes

                                                        Nobel Prizes

Nobel prizes are given every year to persons who have made excellent contribution in the field of physics, chemistry,and physiology or medicine, also to persons who have crated the most outstanding literary work and who have made great contribution towards world peace. The Nobel Prize for economic sciences was started in 1969. Other Nobel Prizes were established in 1901.

The name in whose name the Nobel prizes were established was Alfred Bern hard Nobel, a Swedish chemist. he was born in Stockholm on 21 October 1833. His father Emmanuel Nobel was a scientist. Alfred Nobel had his education at St. petersberg in Russia and in Stockholm. he contributed his whole life to the field of Science. The discovery of dynamite enabled Nobel to become rich and get fame as days passed.

Alfred Nobel died on 10 December 1896  at the age of 63. He left behind a fabulous sum of $9.2 million as a foundation for the Nobel Prizes. The amount of each prize varies according to the interest from the fund.

Each Nobel Prize consists of a citation, a gold medal and about one million dollars. The prize may be shared by two or three and if no prize is given, the money is returned to the foundation. The selection of winners is done by distinguished persons of integrity and scholarship. The prizes are awarded every year on December, the anniversary of Nobel's death.

Regular use of tomatoes reduces chances of cancer. Why?

                                     Why Tomatoes?

Ripe tomatoes contain a high level of vitamin C and a chemical of Lycopin Caratinide, group of which is important and useful for health. Regular use of it saves our cells from harmful effects of tobacco and reduces the chances of cancer. Tomatoes can reduce the amount of damaged done to your body by smoking cigarettes.

Lycopin Caratinide is also the reason why tomatoes are red in color. These substances are used in some of the more pricey facial cleansers too. If you want to try tomatoes for skin care, you need to start with about eight to twelve tomatoes. Peel the tomatoes and then place them on your face with inside of the tomato touching your skin. Leave the tomatoes on your face for a minimum of ten minutes, then wash. Your face will feel clean and shiny. Some redness may occur, but should fade with time.

Tomatoes contain a great deal of Vitamin A, Vitamin B, Vitamin C,Vitamin K and Calcium. We will now proceed on how is it helpful for our body overall.

Tomatoes contain a considerable amount of calcium and Vitamin K. Both of these nutrients are essential in strengthening and performing minor repairs on the bones as well as the bone tissue.

Because of the Vitamin B and potassium in tomatoes, they are effective in reducing cholesterol levels and lowering blood pressure. Therefore, by including tomatoes in your regular balanced diet you can effectively prevent heart attacks, strokes as well as many other heart related problems that may threaten your life.

Vitamin A in tomatoes works perfectly to keep your hair shiny and strong. In addition,eating tomatoes prevent the development of night blindness and is fantastic for improving your vision. 

Adding tomatoes without seeds to your diet has been proven in some studies to reduce the risk of kidney stones.

Tomatoes are packed full of the valuable mineral known as chromium. It works effectively to help diabetics keep their blood sugar levels under better control.

Why is chilly hot?

The presence of a kind of chemical Capsaicin in chilly makes it hot. Capsaicin and several related compounds are called Capsaicinoids and are produced as secondary metabolites by chilly peppers, probably as deterrents against certain mammals and fungi.The amount of Capsaicin make a chilly hot, less hot or more hot. The amount of Capsaicin in capsicum is very low so, it is not hot.

The Scoville Heat Unit is the heat measurement of a chilly. It is named after Wilbur Scoville, an American Pharmacist, who in 1912 devised the “Scoville Organoleptic Test” to measure the spicy heat, or piquancy, of chilly peppers. The measurement is taken by extracting some of the capsaicin from a chilly, and then gradually diluting it into a sugar and water mix, until the heat is barely detectable by a panel of tasters. The degree of dilution gives the chilly its place in the scale. A bell pepper has a zero Scoville rating, whilst a habanero has 100,000 – 350,000 Scoville rating, meaning it must be diluted this many times before its Capsaicin levels become undetectable.Pure capsaicin measures 16,000,000 scoville units.

Capsaicin normally take effect upon sensitive skin, eye contact, and inhalation, and cause burning/stinging pain, and can also produce nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain… and burning diarrhoea.

Capsaicin is hydrophobic that's why it doesn’t dissolve in water. This means that drinking water if you eat a hot chilly will not help. It is however, soluble in both oil and alcohol, drinking or eating dairy products like milk, yogurt, cheese, etc will help, but beer or cider won’t do much to help.

                          Language

What is language?

Language is the ability to acquire and use complex systems of communication, particularly the human ability to do so, and a language is any specific example of such a system. The scientific study of language is called linguistics

This is what wikipedia describes language as

I would rather describe language as a very easy means of communication to share feelings,ideas,expressions and so on. Its not necessary to be perfect in what you speak or try to express. The only thing necessary is the person you are trying to explain must understand what you are trying to express.

In this blog we will learn some easy ways to understand English language and the ways of how to apply it easily. 

Note that this blog would be helpful to those students who want to understand english or is trying to teach english. 

For those who do not understand English at all can translate the language in their preferred language, with the help of gadget at the side of this blog.

So let us begin.......
