Re: uysr
No they’re not. Take the example of right here and now. The most commonly spoken language at the moment is Chinese (Mandarin, to be exact) because it is the language spoken by the largest number of people on the surface of the planet (more than a million). However, the most widely spoken language is English, because it is spoken over the greatest distribution of the globe (it is actually spoken by about half the number of people who speak Mandarin). That’s the difference.
So, Arabic is both the most widely spoken and the most commonly spoken? Which would make it the standard language for academic study, academic papers, and basically the entire academic world, in much the same way that English is these days. You really don’t know any Arabic at all? Tell me, as there cannot be direct phonetic transcribing of Arabic in the Latin alphabet (which is why spellings like “Moslem” and “Muslem” are both equally correct; the first vowel sound is actually somewhere between a western “o” sound and a “u” sound), can I assume that the most commonly and most widely known form of written language is also Arabic? Can you read Arabic?
Oh, and when you say “Arabic”, what dialect do you mean? Which current dialect did it evolve from?
You can’t even write a consise paragraph or two on the topic of your choice from the 20th Century? So, you’re an expert in the time period, but can’t even give me any insight into any single thing of your choice from this time period?
You know, now you put it like that, I’m really convinced that you’re a historian.
Again, I’m going to ask for the name of the philosophy you’re talking about. Give me a name, don’t just repeat yourself.
See, as I understand it, Communism in almost all of it’s forms actually involves not having a state at all. Once more, I’m going to ask for the name of this philosophy under which your society operates, and I want the name of which brance of Communism it’s supposed to have evolved from.
“Laymen’s terms” does not mean “explain as if to a child and repeat yourself”. One might almost think that you can only parrot back what you’ve already said because you’ve realised that you don’t have the imagination or knowledge to say any more.
Okay, you have this energy which “blasts” you off? How is the energy converted into motion? If it’s expelled in a similar form to a rocket, as you seem to be suggesting, then how come you don’t destroy whatever you’re near? As E=mc^2, how does altering the amount of energy that you can have at any one time enable you to accelerate beyond the speed of light? How do you navigate? How do you overcome the laws of physics to allow you to accelerate beyond the speed of light? How do you overcome the weight problem?
So you’re saying that 10,000 light years travelled in an hour is what is now called “light speed”? Why was such an arbitrary unit used? Why was that speed chosen? And, travelling at this new “light speed”, you can cover 2.9 million light years in an hour? I knew your maths was bad, but that’s quite a blatant mistake. You want to up your figure by about 290.
No, elements work in very boring, predictable ways. I’m sorry, but the things you have been saying about “Lunarium” would have been accepted in a 50s Sci-Fi horror, but this is that naughties and we’re a little better educated than that.
You talking about how you alter the half-life of elements? Nice try. What you have to answer is what you do to it on the atomic level? How do you extend it’s half-life?
Oh, BTW, if all of that has to be done to extend the half-life of these unstable elements, then you’ve just backed up what I said about finding “Lunarium” with an atomic weight of 288 on the moon being impossible. It would have a half-life of a microsecond. And yet you have time to dig down miles, excavate it, put it in a machine, wash it and shine a light on it? All in a tiny fraction of a second? You must have some fast workers in your time.
So you were combatting greenhouse gases by doing something that does nothing whatsoever to the atmosphere? How does that work? And, at the exact same time that you were combatting this global warming by doing something that doesn’t affect it at all, you were also combatting an ice age? So the planet was simoultaniously overheating and cooling down? How does that work?
Yes it does.
You really don’t know your physics, do you? Think about it…if people “knew” that the atom was the smallest thing, then why would they be trying to split it? Do you really think that science is scientists just trying random things with no idea of what they’re doing?
Oh, and do you want to know who it was that showed you could split the atom, and which theories showed it? Einstein with relativity. As has been said; E=mc^2. If that wasn’t true, as you claim it isn’t, then splitting the atom would be impossible.
Okay, that’s one part answered. I’m not going to bother with this, as you only answered the easiest part of the questioning. I’ll re-ask everything you’ve ignored at the end of this post, and show you how to make sure you don’t miss or ignore any questions in the future.
All I have seen is evidence of you “forgetting” things. You’re supposed to be an expert in this timeperiod, and it seems that you do not know one single thing about it. you even refuse to say anything about the subject of your choice. I could hardly make it easier for you, and you still are not up to the challenge.
Okay, anyway, you’ve ignored a hall of a lot of questions that I’ve asked you, so I’m going to re-ask anything and everything that needs to be addressed. Now, you claim that you’re unused to typing, so maybe you’re unused to reading the buttons at the bottom of the reply screen, and unable to figure out how to use this board properly, so I’ll give you a quick masterclass.
What you do when replying to a post where somebody asks you something is to hit “reply” above their post. You then come to the screen where I am now. If you scroll down past the buttons and smilies you’ll see the post you’re replying to. What you then do, when you encounter a question you’ve been asked, is to highlight the text of the question. Either hold down CTRL and press “C” or go to the menu marked “Edit” at the top of the screen and select “Copy”.
Move your pointer back to the reply window and click on it. Then type in {quote} except, rather than using these brackets {}, use square brackets like this . Press either CTRL and “V” together, or go to the “Edit” menu and select “Paste”. Then type in {/quote}, only with the square brackets, not the one pictured. You then can type in your reply, and move on to the next question.
See? It’s that easy. And with these few tips, you’ll not only be able to answer the questions fully without side-stepping (which is presumably caused by forgetting the exact content of a question), but you’ll be able to answer all the questions wihthout “forgetting” to answer any.
No, don’t worry, you’re welcome.
So, with that in mind, I’ll re-ask all the questions that you seem to have inadvertantly missed, and assume that you can easily answer them, along with the ones already asked in this post.
Well, I suppose it’s only 12 questions from that last post that you missed, presumably by accident. That they were the most important ones, and the more difficult ones, I’m sure was just a coincidence. Now you know how to use this board properly with the UBB quote tags and cut and paste options, I’m sure you’ll have no problem answering every single one of my questions this time, without accidentally missing any.
