Slang in EEUU and Britain

Slang in EEUU and Britain

According to dictionaries the word slang is a distinct speech variety of the standard language and sometimes incomprehensible to speakers of this, frequently used by different social groups with the intention of concealing the true meaning of his words. English is a language originating in northern Europe, Germanic root, which was developed in England, released from its origin in the British Isles and many of its former overseas colonies. It is the third most spoken language in the world, behind Chinese and Spanish.
An Indo-European language belonging to the West Germanic branch, the official language of Britain and the United States and most countries of the (Commonwealth) characteristic of England or its culture or people

Examples:
1. Sports: shift of the ball by striking one side or release with a touch sharp.
In English -> they are a nation and ethnic group native to England to speak English.
2. Spinning or rotating gives a ball around the vertical axis, as in billiards or bowling.

Health practice

Health practice and exercise

The word refers to full health mental, physical, and emotional. A good way to stay healthy is to take control of our body, exercising, changing bad habits, eat a balanced diet, living a relaxed, among others. All these aspects are important and we should take into account but we care for our bodies and our health we can develop several diseases such as diabetes, high or low pressure, cardiovascular disease, problems with cholesterol, overweight people are more likely to suffer from these diseases, so we should eat in a way appropriate to a normal weight and prevent these diseases. How people try to lose weight? In most cases people eat light, eat some natural treatments that can be functional as long as they take medical supervision. Finally I think that health is important and why should we worry about having it getting better, exercise and good nutrition is a good way to stay healthy.

travel destination

Travel destination

My dream is to travel to Argentina for touristits, spend adventures in several places of this country and have a good time with my family and friends. This is a country well known by everyone. Argentina is a country with different climates, for example, Buenos Aires is on the coast and southern climate, the winter lasts from June to September, summer from December to March, Spring: from September to December and March to autumn June. Argentina is a place known worldwide for its dance, the tango. In this country there are many places to see and things to do like going shopping, going to beaches, known museums, go a theater, restaurants, malls, and hotels are so luxurious in the country, among others. I would go to this country to meet new people, to share with the people you go, know the different customs and traditions that have this country, get away from it all and just for a change of environment.

Restaurants

MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT

I will mention which are my favorite restaurants, because I like and I like to eat. One of my favorite restaurants is "Novillo Alegre" this is in different parts of the country. The food at this place is delicious, you feel relaxed and calm, and, most important of all is that we don’t have to stress to see to cook or to choose because it is a place that specializes in all types of meat. This place is suitable for any occasion either to celebrate a birthday, to go eat and spend time with loved ones and even if someone is in love can lead your partner there. Another of my places that I like to eat are called restaurants fast food for example: McDonalds, KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, here the food is delicious and are places very cheap, the bad news is that food is not as healthy as they all contain lots of fat. Finally I like to go there to know different places and spend time with my friends and family.

video games

Video Games

Today video games have become a universal entertainment, which is shared time with family and friends. There are different types of games such as action, adventure, puzzles, explore, violent, fantasy. Video games can be good and bad at the same time has its advantages and disadvantages, some advantages are: it's good for coordination, sometimes serve to relax and de-stress, help us to use their imagination, we can meet more people if also played for the network share with family and friends, can keep your mind Young, You Can explore Different places. Disventages: can be bad for children, addictive, spend time in front to screem cause eyes problems, causes that the people become sedentary, often blame others when they lose, it decreases the concentration. Finally I think that while we control the time limits.

Etiquette

It´s important to always remember that the way we develop and must deal we have to be with other people, treat them as we would treat us. Some important aspects to be followed to implement each day is.
• Do not talk with food in your mouth.
• Respect others when speaking.
• Be courteous.
• Have respect.
• Apply all possible values
• Say thank you, please.
• Touch the door before entering.

Letter about crime

San José, June 21 2010

Dear: President
Miss President I am writing this letter to communicate my concern and disagreement with the laws of Costa Rica. Each day that passes there are more crimes, people who are looking to make the evil other. I think this situation should change, the laws in this country should be more strict and firm, and before sending a person to jail, police, lawyers and all the people behind the "research" must be absolutely certain who is to blame and who is innocent. Since you have been many cases where the culprits are those who are outside and hurting innocent people paying what they should not pay. As was seen in the movie "The Life of David Gale"

Netiquette

Well I’m going to talk about netiquette. People constantly are communicating in public or private, with different types of communication, with various types of behavior whether good or bad.
Today the most widely used medium for communication in the Internet, by this means we can spend hours talking and communicating with different people and are close friends, far friends or family members and each have specific treatment for example sometimes we are kind, polite and courteous while others are rude and uneducated all depending on the type of person with whom we are communicating. But it is very important to keep the respect with the person you speak because that depends on how we view and treat other people.

Best community

Best community

For me the best community is one which I feel comfortable, where there is peace, honesty and harmony among neighbors. I believe the perfect place to live is one in which there is a lot of nature such as many trees, animals, houses spacious with porch and big gardens where the sun is shining and commercial places such as supermarkets, malls, stores,drugstores, clinics, shoe stores, restaurants, schools, colleges, high schools, parks, movies and other places are close to this “community”. In this community there are different types of people who share their customs and traditions in other words where there is a sense of community, neighbors help with problems and there is honesty between them. Finally I think this is the perfect community to live.

"Neuroscience"

I going to talk about the activity on Thursday May 27, 2010 “neuroscience”. This activity was worth as a green seal. It is about “Learning Situations.” In this case the provost told that the people have different forms to learn. She explained that function of our neurons is important for this, because help them to develop the learning. Neuroscience is a new innovation that contributes in the performance academic, professional, and as personal form. I like this activity because teach and show me differents ways to study, helps us to learn to relate to different kinds of people and how to carry it out and is very important know more of the theory of "neuroscience".
