Grammar-Land Or, Grammar in Fun For The Children of Schoolroom-Shire
No full textGrammar-Land by M. L. Nesbitt is an allegorical story designed to teach English grammar to children in a "fun" way. Aimed at "the children of Schoolroom-shire," the book explains grammatical rules through events that take place in the fictional country of "Grammar-land". In this land, the Parts of Speech are personified as characters in a court ruled by Judge Grammar. The main characters include the wealthy Mr. Noun (with his family "Common" and "Proper"), his helper Mr. Adjective, the placeholder Mr. Pronoun, the "little Article" (A, An, The), and the powerful Dr. Verb. The story progresses through courtroom dialogues where these characters argue about their roles, importance, and relationships (such as Adjective's service to Noun or Pronoun's role in replacing Noun). Through this entertaining personification, Nesbitt aims to make complex grammar rules memorable and enjoyable for young learners.M. L. Nesbitt tarafından yazılan Grammar-Land (Dilbilgisi Ülkesi), çocuklara İngilizce dilbilgisini eğlenceli bir şekilde öğretmeyi amaçlayan alegorik bir hikayedir. Eser, "Schoolroom-shire" (Okul-bucağı) çocuklarına hitap eder ve dilbilgisi kurallarını "Grammar-land" adlı bir ülkede geçen olaylarla anlatır. Bu ülkede, "Sözcük Türleri" (Parts of Speech), Yargıç Grammar'ın (Yargıç Dilbilgisi) yönettiği bir mahkemede karakterler olarak kişileştirilmiştir. Ana karakterler arasında zengin Bay İsim (Mr. Noun) ve ailesi (Common ve Proper), onun yardımcısı Bay Sıfat (Mr. Adjective), yer tutucu Bay Zamir (Mr. Pronoun), küçük Article (A, An, The) ve güçlü Doktor Fiil (Dr. Verb) bulunur. Hikaye, bu karakterlerin kendi önemlerini, görevlerini ve birbirleriyle olan ilişkilerini (örneğin Sıfat'ın İsim'e hizmet etmesi veya Zamir'in İsim'in yerini alması) tartıştıkları diyaloglar ve mahkeme sahneleri üzerinden ilerler. Nesbitt, bu eğlenceli kişileştirme yöntemiyle, karmaşık dilbilgisi kurallarını çocuklar için akılda kalıcı ve keyifli hale getirmeyi amaçlar

Research report: Studying the religious socialization of Sikh and 'mixed-faith' youth in Britain: contexts and issues
No full textAgainst a backdrop of phases of Sikh settlement in the UK, this article provides an overview of scholarship on UK Sikh communities. Attention turns to four ethnographic studies conducted by the author, two of which focused on unambiguously Sikh communities, and two of which challenge presuppositions of the boundedness of faith communities. Of these one was a study of two historically stigmatised caste-specific Punjabi communities; the other is currently examining the religious identity formation of young people in families in which only one parent is Sikh. Pointers and questions are identified that arise from these UK studies for researchers in mainland Europe. These include methodological considerations and encouragement to contribute to debates in the sociology of religion and to take account of Sikhs' increasing appearance in creative literature

THE ROTATIONAL RKR METHOD
No full text M. S. Child and D. J. Nesbitt, Chem. Phys. Lett. (in press).Author Institution: Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics, National Bureau of Standards and University of Colorado at BoulderIn the rapidly growing field of high resolution infrared spectroscopy of van der Waals complexes, one often obtains a wealth of rotational information for a single vibrational state. A new RKR based Method is described for extracting one dimensional potentials via inversion of high precision data on rotational energy levels alone. This method proves remarkably successful at quantitatively reproducing intermolecular potentials from rotational data for I) weakly bound (e.g. model van der Waals complexes) and ii) strongly bound (e.g. rotational levels of molecules
