what is an acronym????

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

An acronym is a collection of the initial letters of words to make a new word that is taken or pronounced as a word of its own.

Explanation:

An acronym is an abbreviation that is formed by taking the first letters of the words. And these new words taken from the letters form a new name and become a part of everyday language.

It is different from an abbreviation in that in an abbreviation, all the individual letters are pronounced out while an acronym does not. In an acronym, the collected letters form a new word that is pronounced as a word.  

Examples of abbreviations are ATM- automated teller machine, ID K- I don’t know, etc.

Examples of an acronym are NATO- North Atlantic Treaty Organization, OMG- Oh My God/ Oh My Goodness, NASA- National Aeronautics and Space Administration, etc.

Answer 2

Answer:

There is one defintion:

An abbreviation formed from the initial letters of other words and pronounced as a word (e.g. ASCII, NASA ).

ZACHARY: Elias! We took the whale! She was a beauty—I never seen anything like her! She come right up close to the side of the boat, ‘Lias; there wasn’t any time even to think. I never saw anything like the way she came right up out of the water and dived again. I thought sure she was going to smash the boat in half, the way she was a-thrashin’ her tail and stirring up the water. (Looks admiringly at Manuel, who is slicing a couple of apples) Manuel here was the big hero. He keeps his head, Manuel does. He was on his feet, balancing on the gunwale, never mind the boat pitching and tossing. The harpoon was poised to strike and he knew just the right moment!

WHY DO YOU THINK IT TAKES COURAGE TO BE A FOLLOWER OF JESUS IN OUT CURRENT TIMES? WRITE ABOUT A PARAGRAPH ( 5-8 SENTENCES

Answers

Answer:

There isn’t a human being alive on this planet who isn’t acquainted with troubles. Times of difficulty arrive unexpectedly, often remain indefinitely, and the sorrowful memories they produce take deep root in the mind. It is no wonder, then, why Jesus’s promise in John 16:33 also takes deep root in the minds and hearts of so many Christians: “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

This comforting verse is found within a larger section in the Gospel of John. Chapters 13-17 make up what theologians refer to as the Farewell Discourse. These are Jesus’s final words of reassurance, comfort, and encouragement to his disciples in the upper room before his betrayal, arrest, and crucifixion.

In chapter 16, he speaks to them of his impending death and departure, as well as their desertion. In John 16:32, Jesus tells them, “A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me.”

Would you quit social media?

Answers

Answer:

not in a million times !!!!!!!!!!!

No because it’s a huge social network that allows us to connect with fellow peers at a distance, it has a lot of pros like being able to keep up with the latest updates on society, connecting and reaching out with others and being able to know what goes on in others lives as well. All though it has these pros there are also cons, for there are some messed up people out there who may want to inflict harm on others social media or social life. You have people like cyber bullies, hackers who can leak all your personal info and trolls/ people who like to humiliate or degrade others in the comments. These following can be degrading or could harm someone’s self esteem and confidence. Yes these cons can have negative effects but that would not stop me from using social media because it can also be a helpful, positive and open network that can also respect one’s privacy.

Helen Grey
By Christina Georgina Rossetti

Because one loves you, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason you should pout,
And like a March wind veer about,
And frown, and say your shrewish say?
Don't strain the cord until it snaps,
Don't split the sound heart with your wedge,
Don't cut your fingers with the edge
Of your keen wit; you may, perhaps.

Because you're handsome, Helen Grey,
Is that a reason to be proud?
Your eyes are bold, your laugh is loud,
Your steps go mincing on their way;
But so you miss that modest charm
Which is the surest charm of all:
Take heed, you yet may trip and fall,
And no man care to stretch his arm.

Stoop from your cold height, Helen Grey,
Come down, and take a lowlier place;
Come down, to fill it now with grace;
Come down you must perforce some day:
For years cannot be kept at bay,
And fading years will make you old;
Then in their turn will men seem cold,
When you yourself are nipped and grey.

Because one loves you, Helen Grey / Is that a reason you should pout

The word novel is borrowed from the Italian word novella (Henry 235). Defining exactly what a novel is can be hard work. The standard dictionary definition is "a fictional prose narrative of considerable length, typically having a plot that is unfolded by the actions, speech, and thoughts of the characters" ("Novel"). Novels in some way represent life. The representations, however, occur in a narrative about life and experience. Since the novel can represent life, such fiction can be serious. The seriousness begins when the novel deals with humankind in a way that shows its importance and significance within the fictional world of the novel. The world of a novel varies greatly from author to author because each writer creates a new fictional world for a new work. That world may be all the relationships of a whole nation or of a very small town. That world may be as confined as the captain's cabin on a ship or as open as a little island. That world may also be as withdrawn as the farthest recesses of the human mind. Novels are important as they entertain and instruct the readers through a variety of life experiences.

Answers

Answer:

This fear can spread rapidly and is not limited to those experiencing the event directly—others that are affected include family members of victims and survivors, and people who are exposed through broadcast images. Psychological suffering is usually more prevalent than the physical injuries from a terrorism event. Understanding these psychological consequences is critical to the nation's efforts to develop intervention strategies at the pre-event, event, and post-event phases that will limit the adverse psychological effects of terrorism.
