How was writing affected during the modern time period?

At the onset of computers and internet, Arabic script was difficult to be written on browsers. Netscape version 7 is the first that enabled Arabic speakers to enter Arabic text over the internet. Internet Explorer version 6 was the first. So Arabic speakers devised a way to communicate over the internet in Arabic. A new transcription emerged for writing Arabic in Latin letters. This transcription made it possible to write Arabic sounds using letters found on the keyboard (rather than the old transcriptions that used symbols not found on a regular keyboard). Slowly but surely this transcription became so common that almost all Arabic speakers now know this transcription along with the Arabic letters. Now that it is possible to enter Arabic script on the internet, this transcription might be replaced by Arabic script. A site that teaches Arabic online and the Arabic script is: http://www.arabacademy.com

HEALTH CARE AND BETTER JOBS:


I think people today deserve free health care, and good paying jobs, being that we are American Citizens. This world has became different since the 1980s. Mothers are having kids every second of the day. Why not have more health care for babies that need to be taken care of? Working families have to pay taxes on every dollar deducted from pay roll checks. Medicare taxes are also deducted along with much more fees. Our Government has a poor group of people to deal with. Therefore, we are left without anyone to help make a change in this world. Most working families depend on the spouse to help with backup noticeable they are out working a 9 to 5 job. Kids cost tons of money to bring into the world, but most people don't get that picture.

What is eponymic title?

A title based upon the name of an individual person could be said to be an "eponymic title". With some help from Wikipedia: Specifically, an eponym is a person, whether real or fictitious, after whom a particular place, tribe, era, discovery, or other item is named or thought to be named. Someone eponymous is someone that gives their name to something, i.e. Julian, the eponymous owner of the famous restaurant Julian's Castle. Something eponymous is named after a particular person, i.e. Julian's eponymous restaurant. In contemporary English, the term eponymous is often used to mean self-titled even though it is an incorrect usage of the word. An aitiology is a "reverse eponym" in the sense that a legendary character is invented in order to explain a term.

When can you capitalize the word you?

You can capitalize it when it is at the begining of a sentence, or if some one is named "You". (Which is very unlikely) Here is another tip: Look at the beginning of this whole paragraph, the word "You" is capitalized.
