A typewriter is a physical device that makes marks by generating a letter when a key is pressed or pushed. It has no memory of its own. A word processor has memory and allows you to edit or check a document before it prints the letter or output.

Charles Dickens's last published novel was Our Mutual Friend. He was working on a murder mystery, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, when he died in 1870. It was intended to be published in 12 monthly installments and the first six were published between April and September 1870. Like many of his other books, Dickens had not yet decided how Edwin Drood would end when he died. Dickens often gave staged dramatic readings of selected scenes from his books, to huge public acclaim. His last reading was in 1870, three months before his death. Friends and family of Dickens--including his doctor--discouraged these readings and believed they contributed to his relatively early death at 58. Charles Dickens started on his last book The Mystery of Edwin Drood in 1869, just before his death in 1870. The book was unfinished and Dickens himself had not decided who the murderer was.

He formulated what we call today classical conditioning. I don't think of it as a theory but a fact because it can be demonstrated experimentally. It was just called conditioning until B.F. Skinner came up with another kind of conditioning called operant conditioning. Conditioning in this sense is learning.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the ancient Egyptians didn't have a "J" in their alphabet. So, you won't find any ancient Egyptian words starting with that letter. But hey, thanks for playing the alphabet game!

Linguistic chauvinism is the idea that one's language is superior to others. For a few examples, the Greeks called all non-Greek speakers barbarians, the French are only at home where French is spoken, and English speakers consider the ability to speak another language a social defect.
