Vivid Pictures of nouns in my mind

The nouns that I picture in my mind are the birds,colors, sizes, and the ground. The reason is because, i just can picture the birds eating and fighting eachother over food on the ground. When birds are fed they are fed what you give them and there isn't any telling how manybirds are going to come down to eat. When they do you see birds gong for the same piece of food. The nouns are all used in the correct way in this poem. She has very little abstact nouns, and the concrete nouns are used correcttly also. This poem helped me notice how to make my poem mmore concrete in nouns and ajectives.

Essay on Derogatory Words to Women 2

The words that were chosen in the slang dictionary were defined to all be derogatory to women. In my case the words are not and I say this because, the words chosen were mean't for the people who are defined this way. If you women are not defined this way, then you have nothing to worry about. Not saying that you were worring about anything, but if you are agaist the words being derogatory to women then you have nothing to worry about.
One of the words was hood hopper. A hood hopper is a person who moves from place to place and is originally from some where else and claims to be from the next place they move to. The second definition of hood hopper is if you were in relation or not with many different people, and claim to be with all of the people and the people happen to be from the same neighborhood. That definition is not mean't only for women, it is mean't for all genders. The reason this word was picked because it is a word that is known in schools and local neighborhoods.
There are even words that were picked that had definitions to the words that didn't make any sense to me. Maybe the reason was I never heard that word in my neck of the woods. That is an example of another kind of slang. The term "neck of the woods". That is short for my neighborhood. But the word that I was talking about I didn't under stand was zonked. I never knew or heard that word as a slang word until we decided to make a slang dictionary. The word zonked means tired, agsausted. That word I would have thought that it mean't being struck by someone or an object. That has nothing to do with being derogatory of any sort but I didn't know the word until then.
There is a word that can only be mean't for women that word is dingy. Which means not that bright for a female. The second meaning is not classy enough for a hip person to date or be friends with. That word can be used for a male but it sounds better defining a woman. There is another word that has the same definition but is mean't to define a male. That word is lame guy.
A guy would be lame if he were not that smart, and not average enogh for that hip lady.
The words that are in the dictionary can be derogatory to women if you say and want them to be. But there are people that think a totally different thought about the words. My whole main point is that if you do theses things then you have to worry about the words being derogatory if not don't let it worry you.

Women Talk Too Much

Janet Holmes is trying have the back of all women that talk about everything in life to another person in life all the time. But the evidence of this article is that men talk the most because in the studies of how much women and men talk in America women talk to much in two situations. The percent of men and women talking too much is found out about the same.
This is a question that is hard to answer it would take a lot of work to find which gender talks too much. in this case I know the women are for the women and the men are for the men. So this means that the real clues of knowing who talks to much will never reveal.what I am trying to say is that women to me in my opinion do not talk to much and men don't talk to much either it is all a medaphor people use against women that they talk too much but that isn't true. You talk enough to get your point across. That goes for women and men too.

essay on derogatory words to women

There is a slang dictionary that is being written by students. All of the words that were chosen are referring to women. For example, the word gold digger and hood hopper are words that consist of men also not just women. These words are always used in an average black neighborhood. You know a girl and you know she has been through a lot of dating with your friends and a couple of relatives. This woman is considered a hood hopper.
The reason I think a lot of students picked these words is because the words that were picked are going through the school.
I think the words should be in the slang dictionary because the words really are used in the average black neighborhood. The words that people make up go a long way. If someone hears a word they like, then they will start saying it often. Then the next person might feel the same way, and so on.
I had different thoughts about the definitions of a couple of words that the people in my class chose. For example “zonked” was defined as tired. I thought that it meant to be hit or struck by something or someone. So that would be a word that won't be passed on or used by me. These words are derogatory only if you make the words out to be. Therefore the slang dictionary should be written for the sake of slang terminology. Speaking in slang you get a good understanding of a black slang culture. If you speak that way, then you understand what I am saying, but if not, then what I mean is if you take it as being derogatory then it is. If you don’t think it is derogatory then it isn’t in your category.

Derogatory Words to Women

11/16/2007

There is a slang dictionary that is being written by students. All of the words that were chosen are refered to women. For example, hoodhopper, gold digger, etc. These words they chosen are always used in like your average black neighborhood. You know a girl and you know she has been through a lot of dating with your friends and a couple of relatives. This woman to you is considered a hoodhopper. A person who jumps from one person to another claiming to be their girl when really she is everyones girl.
The reason I think a lot of students picked these words is because they are going through the school. Since these are the only words that were picked there isn't enough words to discribe other words in the slang life "there really is a lot of slang words".
I think the words should be in the slang dictionary because the words really are and do mean what they mean inthe average black neighborhood. If the words didn't mean anything they won't be used. The words that people make up they go a long way, if someone heres a word they like how it's used and how it sounds then they will start saying often then the next person might feel the same way and so on.
A couple of words that the people in my class chose, I had different thoughts about the definitions of the words. Like zonked that word sounds like a verb that doesn't mean the definition someone chose for it. This person thinks or said it meant tired. No I thought that meant like to be hit or struck by something or someone. The reason is only maybe because I don't like the way they use it or the way it sounds. So that would be a word that won't be passed on or used a lot by me. Anyone else maybe.
The real reason these words are derogatory are only if you make the words out to be. So therefore the slang dictionary should be written for the sake of slang. The reason is because speaking in slang language you get a good understanding if you speak that way.And if you speak that way then you are understanding what I am saying, but if not then what I mean is if you take it as being derogatory then to you it is. These words are to be used in many different ways.

Speaking English Passed as a Law

Should people who live in the United States only be able to use standard english as a law? If we use any other language other than english should there be some kind of punishment?

Yes is my answer to those questions, because there are a lot of wars going on and to translate you have to have translators for other languages. It probably would make it easy to keep immagraters in their own country. To enter the United States you have to know English.
The people that live here now that speak other languages are learning to speak English, because if they don't learn english then they would have trouble getting jobs and understanding everyone else. For example, there are people in the Lieberman Learning Center that are Chinese and are learning English so they can live there lives knowing and understanding the United States people . So yes is my answer to making English the standard legal speaking law in the United States
