Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Spawar4. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Spawar4~enwikibooks that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Chess Opening Theory/1. d4/1...Nf6/2. Nc3

2.Nc3
White develops his Queen's Knight to support 3.e4, sometimes called the Veresov Opening. After Black's usual reply 2...d5, White may respond with 3.Bg5, leading to the Richter-Veresov Attack. Often transposes into the Chigorin Defence, the French Defence, or less commonly the Pirc Defence.

This position may also be reached via the move order 1.Nc3 Nf6 2.d4

Icelandic/Introduction

Inngangur

 * Introduction

Welcome to the world of Wikibooks' language guide in learning the Icelandic language. You are here either because you have an interest in learning this wonderful ancient and modern language, you are either Icelandic or have Icelandic blood, you have a passion for Scandinavian or Nordic languages, you are connected somehow to Iceland, you want to fully grasp the Icelandic sagas in its original language, you will take a trip to Iceland soon and want to communicate with the locals, or you just want to learn a language for fun. Whatever the reason may be for wanting to learn the language, you are here now and we are here to help you learn the language. Velkomin! (Welcome)

Icelandic is the mother tongue of about 320,000 people in the world. It is the only official language of the Republic of Iceland. The language has existed for a very long time, though called different names (such as Old Norse). Icelandic is one of the most unchanged and purest languages in the world. It is said that a speaker of Icelandic would be able to talk with a Viking hundreds of years ago without much difficulty. A speaker of Icelandic can also read the sagas without much difficulty either.

The Icelandic language belongs to the Western Scandinavian language group along with Faroese, the language of the Faroe Islands. It is possible to see many connections between the other Scandinavian languages too, such as Norwegian, Danish, and Swedish. If you are familiar with any other Scandinavian language, learning Icelandic shouldn't be a problem for you.

The most difficult aspect to grasp in Icelandic would be the complex grammar. There is a case system, like in German and Latin, that might frustrate English speakers or those who are not familiar with grammatical cases. This means that words will change form or have endings depending on what function of the sentence they have. Even names will change. If you have studied Latin before, you might be able to see some similarities between the grammar aspects of the language.

Do not be discouraged by the grammar though, this book is not a book designed to just drill grammar rules into your head. We will start off with the basics so you can communicate effectively in Icelandic, then slowly introduce grammar rules so you will be able to construct sentences of your own.

Remember that all languages are difficult to learn. Do not expect Icelandic to come easy, because nothing in life worth having comes easy. If you start to become frustrated, just think about how well you can speak English or whatever your mother tongue might be. If you can expand your vocabulary in English, then you should have no problem doing it in a foreign language. The feeling of being able to communicate in a foreign language is rewarding, especially that of Icelandic.

How to use this book
This book is a free content open source guide in learning the Icelandic language. Though it can be edited by anyone, it is also being monitored by the authors and administrators of this book and Wikibooks, to assure you 100% accuracy. So do not be discouraged about using this book as a primary or secondary reference in your language studies as this book is not giving you any false information.

The book is set up in step-by-step lessons which will introduce the language like a classroom setting and similar to a textbook style tutorial. It will commence with the basics of the language, and gradually introduce grammar aspects of the language, rather than give you a bunch of grammar explanations and a massive list of vocabulary to learn on your own. The book is set up accordingly so you can go at your own pace whether you are a fast learner or prefer to take your time.

Do not skip over the Málfræði (Grammar) sections. Though sometimes it might seem like a lot, it is essential information to read and understand. Icelandic grammar is difficult, but we will try to explain it as easily as possible for a simple understanding.

Use the navigation header above to navigate to the next lesson, a previous lesson, or the pronunciation guide. There will also be appendices (grammar references) at the end of the book which you can navigate to.

At the end of each lesson there will be small exercises to test yourself on the knowledge you've gained and accumulated in the previous lessons. Do not be tempted to skip over them! It is very easy to just say ''Oh! I have done enough, I know the answers, no problem at all''. Try to work on each question and check yourself. This will only improve your knowledge on the language.

Learning a language is a tough challenge, but with this book, we will try to make it as informative, fun, and motivative as possible to help you learn the Icelandic language. A good way to practise is reading the Icelandic wikipedia! Listen to Icelandic radio too at Útvarpsaga.is live. (Click on On air (Hlusta í beinni) in the left corner and it will open in your browser or media player). Útvarp Saga is more or less geared to older people, but it is the radio station that contains the most talk. It might be a great way for a learner to understand conversation in Icelandic.

Gangi þér vel!

Talk:Latin/Lesson 9-Poem

Untitled
The first known appearance of this poem was inscribed inside the cover of my mother Winifred Lenore "Winnie" Robertson Parkerson's (b. 1915) Latin text at Longview High School; Longview, TX; early part of twentieth centry, as she reported same to me. Ever since that time it has been inscribed inside the cover of high-school Latin texts by some students, as was done by me during my two years of Latin I and Latin II at Nacogdoches High School; Nacogdoches, TX (late 1950's).

Also, inspired by this little poem, I wrote the following one:

"True Penance"

Latin is a language

As hard as it can be.

You can speak it to your neighbor,

You can speak it to a tree.

Neither will understand you,

No, not in the least;

That is, unless your neighbor

Is a Roman Catholic priest.

Then you can tell him, MEA CULPA, MEA CULPA, MEA CULPA!:

That Latin confessional sen'ence;

And he'll tell you go and sin no more

And read Latin as your penance.

-by Hardy Parkerson, Atty.; Lake Charles, Louisiana.

 * The poem also appears in a number of other places; Google Books finds a citation in a 1905 classical journal but no doubt it's older than that. Marnanel 18:48, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

Agreement of the adjective "arida"
Most of the translations say "dry pumice" but I can't figure out how the adjective arida is in agreement with a third declension noun. The verb is dono for I give and the object given is a book which is a neuter noun - arida can take the accusative plural case or the nominative/vocative plural case as a neuter adjective. So I keep reading this as the "dry book". Unless I'm missing something I can't see how arida agrees with the ablative singular case of pumex.

I did think maybe the verb participle took the adjective - so "polished dry with pumice stone".

I just thought I'd leave a note here in case anyone can explain why the majority of sites giving an English translations of "ad Cornelium" by Catullus always give "dry pumice stone"

Teaching Elementary School Health Education/Mental and Emotional Health/Understanding How Stress Affects Health Status

Stress is the body's response to the demands of daily living. A stressor is a source or cause of stress. For our students stress can be physical, mental, social, or environmental. There are two types of stress that can effect our students. They include: Since stress has a holistic effect, it can effect other areas of health than just mental and emotional health. These other areas include, family and social health, growth and development, nutrition, personal health and physical activity, alcohol, tobacco and other drugs, communicable and chronic diseases, consumer and community health, environmental health, injury prevention and safety. Here are several lesson plans over stress and how to deal with it with our students.
 * Eustress- A healthful response to a stressor that produces positive results.
 * Distresss- A harmful response to a stressor that produces negative results.
 * Striking Out Stress
 * Taking Care of Me

Chess Opening Theory/1. e4/1...d6/2. d4/2...Nf6

=Pirc Defence= This is the main line of the Pirc Defence. Black immediately challenges the White center with his knight, which forces White to protect it. White has several options. Each one has its pluses and minuses. Black will, usually regardless of what White plays, play 3....g6 next and 4....Bg7. Fianchetto on the fourth move, however, is not always obligatory. In the systems with 4. Bd3 or 4.f3 Black often delays this thematic move, in order to discourage Bh6. Instead, he opts for queenside expansion with ...c6 and ...b5.

Chess Opening Theory/1. e4/1...d6/2. d4/2...Nf6/3. Nc3

=Pirc Defence=

3.Nc3
White replies to Black's developing move with a developing move of his own, 3.Nc3. The move is noncommittal, as the knight was probably going to go to c3 anyway. It protects the e-pawn and maintains White's large center.

Chess Opening Theory/1. e4/1...d6/2. d4/2...Nf6/3. Nc3/3...g6

=Pirc Defence=

3...g6
Black continues with his hypermodern plan of fianchettoing the bishop to pressure White's center, followed by castling kingside. The bishop creates a masked attack on d4, and also helps to control the center. White still has yet to make a decision about his center, and he will do so with his next move. Here White has a number of viable options; 4.f4, the aggressive Austrian Attack, further increases White's central control, preparing e5, while also supporting a kingside attack. The calm 4.Nf3, known as the Classical Variation, simply develops solidly with a central space advantage for White. 4.Be3 is a flexible & aggressive move that tends to aim for Qd2, O-O-O and a kingside pawn-storm (often known as the 150 Attack). White has many other options, such as 4.Be2 (sometimes played with the intention of 4...Bg7 5.g4, the aggressive Chinese Variation or 4...Bg7 5.h4, the Bayonet Attack), 4.Bf4, 4.h3 (an awkward-looking move that can turn aggressive), 4.f3 (often transposing to 4.Be3, with the same plan of Be3, Qd2, O-O-O), and others.

Chess Opening Theory/1. e4/1...d6/2. d4/2...Nf6/3. Nc3/3...g6/4. f4

=Austrian Attack=

4.f4
This is White's most aggressive variation against the Pirc Defense. White gets in an immediate threat, albeit a not-so-dangerous one, of e5. Black's plan here is usually to develop normally, as there really is no good way of preventing e5. As e5 is not so dangerous anyway, Black usually continues development.

Chess Opening Theory/1. e4/1...d6/2. d4/2...Nf6/3. Nc3/3...g6/4. f4/4...Bg7

=Austrian Attack=

4...Bg7
This is Black's normal continuation. Black continues to aim his pieces at the growing White center. White's center poses a growing threat to Black's position. The advance of the e-pawn for White would snuff out the bishop's activity, so Black must find some way to prevent e5. He is safe for now for tactical reasons, but preparation by White will force Black to take preventive measures.

=Austrian Attack=

5. Nf3
White supports e5 with his knight and threatens in earnest to advance his central pawns. Black has two choices. One is entirely defensive, but takes away from much of the force of the attack. The other, seen much more frequently than the former, is the choice of the world's top Pirc players.

=Austrian Attack: Dragon=

5...c5
Black strikes at the center before White can make a move with it. His move may seem antipositional, as after 6.dxc5 dxc5 7.Qxd8+ Kxd8 8.Be3 b6 9.0-0-0+ Bd7 gives White an excellent game, due to Black's uncastled king and poor pawn position. However, Black can get a favorable pawn structure by using a tactical trick. The reason for the variation's nickname is for the excellent pawn structure that Black can get out of it, the Sicilian Dragon.

=Austrian Attack:Dragon=

6.dxc5
White chooses the simplest option, taking the pawn. Black's next move wins back a pawn and achieves a better pawn structure. The other option for White would be to ignore Black's threats and lose the pawn, in addition to getting an inferior position.

=Austrian Attack:Dragon=

6...Qa5!
With this move Black regains the pawn. Here are some sample variations:
 * 7.cxd6 Nxe4 8.Bd2 (8.dxe7 Nxc3) Nxd6, with a better position for Black.
 * 7.Bd3 Qxc5, when white is slighty better, because white can play 8.Qe2 with the idea of 9.Be3 and white also have more space.

In other positions
This is not the only position in which this tactic will appear. There are many other variations which involve this equalization trick for Black. For example, consider the moves 1.e4 d6 2.d4 Nf6 3.Nc3 g6 4.Be2 Bg7 5.h4 c5! After White's forced 6.dxc5 (6.Nf3 Qa5!) Qa5! 7.Bd3 Qxc5, again with a much better pawn structure. Black can get this dominant, healthy pawn structure in many Pirc variations. Certainly the Black pawns are better than the White pawns. Black has strong pressure on White's e-pawn. Meanwhile, White has weakened his kingside with his now-useless move 5.h4. The point of this move was to play 6.h5, creating a weakness in the Black kingside, but now the g3 and g4 squares are weakened, and it is White's position that gets the weakness.
