7. Juli 2015 · What word describes experiencing something second-hand? This word has been on my mind a long time, but it keeps eluding me. The word, I think it's an adjective, describes experiencing something second-hand. It could be used to describe, for example, gossiping or reading a book - the listener/reader experiences second-hand what he/she hears/reads.
Then / next / after that / afterwards = later. In addition / additionally = Second (ly) Furthermore / moreover OR What's more (less formal) = Third (ly) In conclusion / lastly OR in the end (less formal)= Finally. To start with, I grabbed a spoon. Then I took a bowl and filled it with cereal.
17. Mai 2013 · The advantage of using minute and second symbols for time is that it obviously expresses a duration rather than a time. From the time 01:00:00 to the time 02:34:56 is a duration of 1 hour, 34 minutes and 56 seconds (1h 34′ 56″) Prime markers start single and are multiplied for susbsequent appearances, so minutes use a single prime ′ and ...
In English, Wikipedia says these started out as superscripts: 1 st, 2 nd, 3 rd, 4 th, but during the 20 th century they migrated to the baseline: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th. So the practice started during the Roman empire, and probably was continuously used since then in the Romance languages. I don't know when it was adopted in English.
9. Aug. 2018 · The fact that we can say things like "the second highest mountain", where the equivalent of the word most is expressed by a suffix -est on the adjective, suggests to me that second in this context is not used as a modifier of the adverb most (since that adverb is not even present in "the second highest mountain"). On the other hand, I guess ...
31. Okt. 2017 · @tchrist I only meant to explain why the fig. 2 a may be more common in hand-printing, not printed (book) fonts. I thought that's what the question was about. Cursive is another topic and I agree with you, a two-storey a doesn't figure in. If the question was about cursive, I misunderstood and I'll delete my answer. The OP does ask about teaching.
16. Feb. 2019 · On the rare occasions an abbreviation is used, it's never "sect." but "sec." (and in a few old texts, just "s."). "Sec" is an (incorrect) abbreviation for second, and "sect" is another word; neither is likely to lead to actual misunderstandings but can mean a sentence is unintuitive at first glance.
1. Juli 2012 · J.R.: Yes, I didn't want to clog up the answer itself with that level of detail, but when the word "the" is part of the "the one side/hand" juxtaposed with "the other side/hand", most of the instances with "hand" are exactly OP's context, but very few of the (far less common anyway) instances of "side" are actually for that "weighing up of alternatives" sense.
You should use a space between the number and the unit (), except in the case of the prime and double prime.. (The NIST page doesn’t address those in the context of inches and feet, since scientific writing does not use inches or feet, but they do say not to use a space before the prime and double prime in the context of minutes and seconds of angl
In the above questions, "lemon" is used to mean a faulty or defective item. A typical use might be to describe a second hand car that, once bought, turns out to have serious faults, as a "lemon". Why is the delicious fruit associated with faulty goods? Etymonline says:
