This change is not Common Insular Celtic because it postdates raising in Goidelic and raising is not Common Insular Celtic sound change." (Tristram, 2007, p.100)
Tristram writes that in Goidelic "syncope is a completely regular process" which impacts every second syllable of a polysyllabic word, counting the last syllable (following the syncope). And in all likelihood occurring at the last of the Ogam period in the middle of the 6th century. Paraphrased) Stated to be a common morphological innovation "was the creation of conjugated prepositions or preposition nouns from earlier prepositions which were followed by inflected forms of pronouns both in British and Goidelic languages and personal pronouns merged with prepositions into "conjugated prepositions." (2007, p.101) the a preposition governs pronominal dependents it is conjugated for person but the forms of conjugated prepositions are stated to be different in British and Goidelic and this is true "even if the prepositions themselves are etymologically cognate." (Tristram, 2007, p.101)
Tristram holds that conjugated prepositions "must have been created at the time when personal pronouns were still fully inflected in Goidelic and British" which subsequently cause the loss of the inflection in this word-class "in both branches" which in British extended to "all pronouns, nouns and adjectives." (2007, p.102)
V. Common Special Imperfect Tense Shared by British and Goidelic
Tristram (2007) writes that there is a shared special imperfect tense in both British and Goidelic and that no traces of this are found in the Continental Celtic languages to date. There are however, some divergences stated in the "use of the imperfect in the two branches" leaving little doubt "that the parallels in the formation and use of the imperfect in British and Goidelic are accidental.' (p. 102)
However, Tristram states that the majority of the endings of the imperfect are non-related in British and Goidelic etymologically "so the Proto-Insular Celtic imperfect cannot be reconstructed" which is clear when comparison is conducted between the two paradigms of the conditional in Olr. And MW of the PCelt. Verb *kar- "to love" as shown in the following labeled Figure 2.

VI. Developments in Insular Celtic Languages
The Insular Celtic languages are stead to have developed "a rather rigid VSO order just at the time when Vulgar Latin tended towards a fixed SVO word order. It is conceivable that the VSO order in Medieval IC is just a compromise between the conflicting tendencies in the development of fixed word order in VL and Early IC." (Tristram, 2007, p.103) Tristram states that the second position of enclitics in sentences is presumed to have been inherited from PIE via Proto-Celtic then the IC sentences containing enclitics (E) could have one of the structures as follows:
V-E (S O)
V-E (O S)
P-E SVO
P-E VSO
P- EOVS
Furthermore, free word order in sentences without any enclitics was still possible and it is possible that verb-initial structures "could have been generalized...

The culture of Korea has evolved over the last several millennia to become one of the world's most distinctive, homogenous, and intact. Being surrounded by large and ambitious neighbors has caused Korea to have a troubled history, evident in the most recent generations with the division between North and South. The division between North
Ethnography Little Odessa, the predominantly Russian-speaking enclave of South Brooklyn, has been a thriving community for decades that achieved political power on its own. The area comprising Brighton Beach and Coney Island had once been a "summer getaway for wealthy New Yorkers," but morphed into a working class ethnic enclave after World War Two (Robinson & D'Onfro, 2014). Subsequent waves of refugees from Russian-speaking areas of Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and
It is suggested that some of the linguistic facts are also better explained by a creole or creole-like history. The case is not conclusive, but the weight of evidence tends to support a creole-like origin for popular BP (Guy, 1981). Studies have also been done regarding the nature of language, memory, and reading skills of bilingual students and to determine the relationship between reading problems in English and reading problems

The second chart refers to the use of the intensifier 'so.' As has been noted in the literature review, 'so' is perhaps one of the most controversial choices of intensifier, given that it is associated with a more female, expressive style of speech (Bulgin et al. 2008: 114). Previous literature indicates that women use 'so' overwhelmingly more than males, and that women from more traditional, gendered socioeconomic situations (living in

Secondly, recognizing that the discourses surrounding sex that developed and in some cases were deployed over the course of the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries helps one to understand why "what is said about sex must not be analyzed simply as the surface of
