Vista Enterprise 시리얼

pluralization of Singularetantum


Each language has its own idiosyncrasies that reveal more or less accurate indicator of the mentality of people who speak them. Similarly, with the dialect. The cozy, quaint-looking little singsong Berners one (take the love Sämu - Federal - Schmid conjecture as an example), for instance, suggests that this is one of harmony and satisfaction thoughtful fellow. Better to have too much say yes and it can just hang the house blessing. Or the rough, I totally incomprehensible and ear pain caused Valais polarized leads to inevitable assumption that the counterpart is a passionate hunter, eagerly participated in the extermination of endangered species and the last wild wolf was killed.

But I will not actually reports. My attention was recently increased on the second of the two significant features of Swiss German. After

now already has missed the last one behind comedian from Germany on the slopes of the Swiss diminutive, this should be known in this country, which seems to be no impetus to put in it and enjoys particularly in the trendy districts of the 30 Popper on the rage.

The second oddity is not directly in the expression of the language, but rather in their use as Identity-expression. I am talking about individuals, events, facts, events, opinions, or whatever, from the bondage of the individual, individual to push on the shaft of the universal and plurals.
If for example, a school student finished, brings notabene what a remarkable achievement, Federal and to be itself ("there is joy!") by simple-minded language and truly simplified guidelines is politicized in the hearts of sheep, is spoken in the same general line of "EuSEM Ogi.
But wait - now thinks the gentle reader - the love Ogi is not our Ogi 'and certainly not my Ogi' but simply a Ogi 'and how it should be simply left. But it is precisely for such generalizations is offering Swiss German. It is generally of 'we' occurs when talking about the favorite ice hockey team in action. Although There is the plural of hockey team - ie hockey teams, but because it is ultimately the preferred team is and this occurs only in the singular, are seen as Singularetantum - but is then suddenly seduced by excessive desire to identify, pluralistic, we '.

may For some, now to be splitting hairs, and also pseudo-intellectual drivel, but who regularly reads the newspaper is about not worrying about such things upside down, because the fact that inconsistently only so positively perceived events are pluralized, an impetus for consideration whether Switzerland in an identity crisis there ...

... oh what! Humbug! Finally, we are Töffweltmeister! ..

... had someone read the headline: "We are unemployed?

Uterus Prolapse Bed Rest

The experiment

In all modesty, I am a man creates knowledge and, as such, would have easily earned the Nobel Prize. Not for insignificant findings in basic research on nuclear physics, or worse, but for research on humans.

Whenever I switch from DRS 2 to another station, which sometimes occurs very rarely and then only by accident because I was in my concentration, as regards the use of radio, by other Fahrzeuge im Strassenverkehr erheblich gestört werde, erschrecken mich die fürchterlichen Lärmbrocken, die mir in den zwei Sekunden die ich brauche um wieder zurückzuschalten, auf den Gehörgängen trampeln.

Irgendwann begann ich darüber nachzudenken warum ich gewisse Musik mag und andere nicht und weshalb es Menschen gibt, die partout behaupten sie würden „alles e chli“ hören. Oder was noch schlimmer ist: „was grad so i de hitparade lauft“ Das ist natürlich verachtenswert und stösst bei mir auf das grösstmögliche Unverständnis, dessen ich fähig bin. Wobei ich jedes Mal einen kleinen Herzinfarkt durchlebe, wenn ich selber gefragt werde was ich denn so hören würde, da diese Frage leider nicht mit der Benennung einer einzelnen Stilrichtung abgetan werden kann. Die Frage wird von mir meist damit beantwortet, indem ich aufzähle, was ich definitiv NICHT höre. Darunter fallen sämtliche Vergewaltigungen von Blasinstrumenten, angefangen bei der Volksmusik bis hin zu euphorischem Latinogedudel(wobei das eigentlich ebenfalls in die Kategorie Volksmusik fällt, aber im Zuge der allgemeinen kulturellen Offenheit, vielen Dank Moritz, nicht als solche wahrgenommen wird und daher als säääähr trendy gilt) Eine Trompete zum Beispiel sollte einzig für Jazz und Swing verwendet werden und nicht für massentauglichen Mambo Nr. 5 Klamauk.

Furthermore, I was until now the gateway to the hip-hop knowledge closed, because to me, and there may be your nice nod in agreement, the possible parallels between gangsta Kidz in the Bronx and affluent children in Western Europe - bring something to your hair - it seems to me would be drawn. I can not identify so that and are each a little perplexed, the wildly with his arms flailing boys and girls over (to keep the well for dancing) when I am invited to a party where Vin Diesel also highly appreciated as souped-up small cars.
make since but what must be, I thought to myself recently when I once again provided from the radio station moved and decided to do a safe leidvolles, aber der Wissenschaft dienliches Eigenexperiment durchzuführen. Meine Theorie basiert auf der Grundlage der Alleshörer, welche nur deshalb über keinen identifizierbaren Musikgeschmack verfügen, weil sie ständig von den diversen Radiostationen mit dem neusten Chartmüll zugeballert werden.

Mein Experiment sah also wie folgt aus:

Ich nahm eine CD mit übelstem HipHop und R&B Gedröhne (tnx 2 ma homie steff, dem ich diese CD zu verdanken habe) und hörte sie während drei Wochen im Auto. An jedem dieser 21 Tage grölte mir X 2 da Z XZIBIT Ganstaparolen ins Ohr und Brandy säuselte mit ihrer admittedly very lovely voice of longing and heartbreak.
On the third day after the experiment start, I wanted to give up completely unnerved and left the CD on a lonely country road to their fate, in other words, throw out the window, but I stood firm. As a scientist, you have to deal with bitter resistance and crazy twists may eventually even the thought Albert Hoffman. After about 10 days, I was already possible to move cautiously in the rhythm of the head, and after another five I began to involve the shoulders.
At the end of the experimental period arrived, you could see a V8 with a sensationally well-dressed driver who gestured wildly with his arms become and completely captured by Beat and Groove forgot the world around - shake ya booty baby!

Next is the much more hated Reaggeton on the list ... a ella le gusta la gasoliiiiinaaaaa. ... Dame mas gasoliiiiiiinaaaaaa!
