What is the term for words from different languages that look similar and mean the same thing

Answers

Answer:

Cognates

Explanation:

Linguistics can be defined as the scientific study of various human languages.

In Linguistics, cognates is the term for words from different languages that look similar and mean the same thing because they are related in terms of historical or etymological origin.

Simply stated, cognates are words that are related in origin and have similarities in terms of pronunciation, meaning and spelling.

For example, the German word "bruder" and the English word "brother" are cognates. Also, the Spanish word "historia" and the English word "history" are cognates; same as the Spanish word "gratitud" and the English word "gratitude."

Generally, cognates make it easier to learn a new language because they are quite easy to remember and have the same pronunciation, meaning and spelling as a word you already know.

Explanation:

“As global citizens, we need to care about global isues”. Do you ogree? Why?

Answers

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Answer:

yes

Growing up in a sheltered community, I was never truly exposed to global issues as a child. Topics such as politics and international relations were not often touched at my dinner table, either.

But I began to navigate my public school career, I realized that I was not alone in my situation. There were so many kids who were just like me who were not exposed to global events. Maybe less than five percent of the entire class could name the United States ambassador to the United Nations, and even less would be aware of the extreme gender discrimination that attack girls in Guatemala.

Although I grew up in this “bubble” of indifference towards the global community, I am slowly becoming a more and more global student. For me, here are the top reasons why I (and youth everyone) should care about global issues:

Globalization is on the rise. In this day and age, one country can not survive without another, and this simple principle affects everyone on the globe. It is likely that one day, you will become friends with someone who speaks an entirely different language or grew up in an entirely different culture. These people may even be your future co-workers. If you want to be able to foster deeper connections and broaden your network, understanding global issues and other cultures is key.

Global issues are your issues, too. Let’s talk about the situation of adolescent girls in Guatemala again. Did you know that more than 2 million girls in Guatemala do not attend school due to social boundaries? If you believe in gender equality, you can understand why the fight of rights of women in other countries is part of your fight for gender equality, too. Dare to expand your horizons by learning about the issues you believe in fighting for- in an entirely different country.

While one country can not survive without another, one person can not survive without another either. Giving back or volunteering in your community can give you invaluable experiences. But if you extend your service to the entire world, there is no telling what amazing differences you will be able to make. Understanding global issues and further using your talents to help solve these issues will not only make you a more sensible and well-rounded person; it will help the world take one step closer towards a brighter future.

Explanation:

Read the excerpt from The Odyssey.

At this he gave a mighty sob and rumbled:
'Now comes the weird upon me, spoken of old.
A wizard, grand and wondrous, lived here—Telemus,
a son of Euryinus; great length of days
he had in wizardry among the Cyclopes,
and these things he foretold for time to come:
my great eye lost, and at Odysseus' hands.
Always I had in mind some giant, armed
in giant force, would come against me here.
But this, but you—small, pitiful and twiggy—
you put me down with wine, you blinded me.
Come back, Odysseus, and I'll treat you well,
praying the god of earthquake to befriend you—
his son I am, for he by his avowal
fathered me, and if he will, he may
heal me of this black wound—he and no other
of all the happy gods or mortal men.’

Why does the Cyclops invite Odysseus back to the island?

He realizes that Odysseus was destined to take his eye.
He wants to obey the Greek custom of providing food and shelter to guests.
He fears far more harm will come to him if does not befriend Odysseus.
He wants to take revenge on Odysseus.

Answers

Answer:

he realized that Odysseus was destined to take his eyes

Explanation:

he wanted to take revenge on him

The Cyclops invites Odysseus back to the island because he hopes that Odysseus can persuade the god of earthquake to heal him of the wound caused by being blinded.

What is The Odyssey about?

The Odyssey is an epic poem written by the ancient Greek poet Homer, which tells the story of the Greek hero Odysseus and his ten-year struggle to return home after the Trojan War.

The poem is divided into 24 books and begins with Odysseus stranded on the island of Ogygia, where he has been trapped by the nymph Calypso.

The Cyclops invites Odysseus back to the island because he hopes that Odysseus can persuade the god of earthquake to heal him of the wound caused by being blinded.

He also wants to treat Odysseus well and pray to the god of earthquake to befriend him in order to avoid further harm.

Therefore, the correct answer is: He wants to treat Odysseus well, praying the god of earthquake to befriend him, and hopes to be healed of his wound.

READING COMPREHENSION PASSAGES From Outer Space FoxNews.com reports that Dr. Richard B. Hoover, an astrobiologist at NASA, believes that he has found the fossils of bacteria in meteorites. In other words, he claims to have found traces of life from outer space. Not surprisingly, his claim is controversial; many scientists do not accept that Dr. Hoover has come to the correct conclusion from what he has observed. Therefore, he has invited over 5,000 scientists to review his work and to publish their comments. 1. Bacteria are a _______. a. group of scientists b. place where meteors come from c. kind of restaurant d. form of life 2. When something is controversial, people _______. a. get sick from it b. believe it is ancient and extremely rare c. have strong disagreements about it d. brush their teeth with it 3. Dr. Hoover seems confident that his research will be proven correct because _______. a. he is named after a vacuum cleaner b. he has invited many scientists to look closely at his work c. he works for NASA d. he gets a rash when he touches meteorites 4. Based on the reading selection, which statement is true? a. No one believes that Dr. Hoover has made an important discovery. b. Astrobiologists are smarter than other scientists. c. Dr. Hoover believes he has found fossils of bacteria. d. Dr. Hoover did his work without using a microscope.

Answers

Answer:

1. d. form of life

Bacteria are a form of life and if it is found that they are fossilized on meteors then it could mean that there is life in outer space because that would be where the bacteria came from.

2. c. have strong disagreements about it.

A controversial topic is one that not everybody believes and so have disagreements about with some believing it and others disagreeing with it.

3. b. he has invited many scientists to look closely at his work.

If the scientists that Dr. Hoover invites, reviews his work and finds it to be accurate then his research would be proven correct because scientists are experts giving their expert opinions would serve as enough proof of truth.

4. c. Dr. Hoover believes he has found fossils of bacteria.

The reading shows that Dr. Hoover believes that he has indeed found fossils of bacteria and that these fossils come from outer space.
