Pytanie #1:
I'm reaching 17 years old and its finally time for me to start planning my future. The thing is, I want to go with a good airline with a good work attitude and good union, where they are fair.
Now I could go with flybe, but can only apply at the age of 18 and the sponsorship for £20000 to get takes about 1 year to complete selection process with cabair, If I get in i have to pay only £50000 instead of £70000. If at the end, age 19 I dont get in then I would find that a bit late.
Now I'm doing maths and physics for A level and can speak german fluently ( as I lived there for 3 years) and english as well as I live in England now and have gone to school here for the past 11 years.
Only problem with german is that I can speak it, but when it comes to going all technical and writing about it, there's a bit of a problem. Well quiet a bit of a problem. I can write a 10 page essay but just full of spelling mistakes.
Anyway your probably wondering what my question is.
Well I had a look at what Lufthansa offer and they offer very good traning and they loan out for you £60000 and you pay it back 4 months into your job.
But will my traning be in english or german? They require a 75% pass rate and maybe understanding and writing all the technical german words may put me back.
Or can I apply to have the whole course in english?
Thanks

This is an insightful story of the erosion of freedom in Austria before and during WW II.
The author of this article lives in South Dakota and is very active in attempting to maintain our freedom. There are so many parallels in this country are we going to sit by and watch it happen? Spread the word; also contact your congressional reps; vote them out if they dont do what they should. Google Kitty Werthmann and you will see articles and videos.

What I am about to tell you is something you've probably never heard or will ever read in history books. I believe that I am an eyewitness to history. I cannot tell you that Hitler took Austria by tanks and guns; it would distort history. We elected him by a landslide - 98% of the vote.. I've never read that in any American publications. Everyone thinks that Hitler just rolled in with his tanks and took Austria by force.
>
In 1938, Austria was in deep Depression. Nearly one-third of our workforce was unemployed. We had 25% inflation and 25% bank loan interest rates. Farmers and business people were declaring bankruptcy daily. Young people were going from house to house begging for food. Not that they didn't want to work; there simply weren't any jobs. My mother was a Christian woman and believed in helping people in need. Every day we cooked a big kettle of soup and baked bread to feed those poor, hungry people - about 30 daily.
>
The Communist Party and the National Socialist Party were fighting each other. Blocks and blocks of cities like Vienna , Linz , and Graz were destroyed. The people became desperate and petitioned the government to let them decide what kind of government they wanted.

We looked to our neighbor on the north, Germany, where Hitler had been in power since 1933. We had been told that they didn't have unemployment or crime, and they had a high standard of living. Nothing was ever said about persecution of any group -- Jewish or otherwise. We were led to believe
> that everyone was happy. We wanted the same way of life in Austria . We were promised that a vote for Hitler would mean the end of unemployment and help for the family. Hitler also said that businesses would be assisted, and farmers would get their farms back. Ninety-eight percent of the

>
We were overjoyed, and for three days we danced in the streets and had candlelight parades. The new government opened up big field kitchens and everyone was fed.
>
After the election, German officials were appointed, and like a miracle, we suddenly had law and order. Three or four weeks later, everyone was employed. The government made sure that a lot of work was created through the Public Work Service.

Hitler decided we should have equal rights for women. Before this, it was a custom that married Austrian women did not work outside the home. An able-bodied husband would be looked down on if he couldn't support his family. Many women in the teaching profession were elated that they could

>Hitler Targets Education - Eliminates Religious Instruction for Children:
> Our education was nationalized. I attended a very good public school. The population was predominantly Catholic, so we had religion in our schools. The day we elected Hitler (March 13, 1938), I walked into my schoolroom to find the crucifix replaced by Hitler's picture hanging next to a Nazi flag. Our teacher, a very devout woman, stood up and told the class we wouldn't pray or have religion anymore. Instead, we sang "Deutschland, Deutschland, Uber Alles," and had physical education.

Sunday became National Youth Day with compulsory attendance. Parents were not pleased about the sudden change in curriculum. They were told that if they did not send us, they would receive a stiff letter of warning the first time. The second time they would be fined the equivalent of $300, and

Oh, we had so much fun and got our sports equipment free. We would go home and gleefully tell our parents about the wonderful time we had.

My mother was very unhappy. When the next term started, she took me out of public school and put me in a convent. I told her she couldn't do that and she told me that someday when I grew up, I would be grateful. There was a very good curriculum, but hardly any fun - no sports, and no political

Pytanie #4:
...or other religious people, particularly christians seem to lack this quality?
Weltanschauung: The term is a loan translation or calque of German Weltanschauung [ˈvɛlt.ʔanˌʃaʊ.ʊŋ] ( listen), composed of Welt, 'world', and Anschauung, 'view' or 'outlook'. It is a concept fundamental to German philosophy and epistemology and refers to a wide world perception. Additionally, it refers to the framework of ideas and beliefs through which an individual interprets the world and interacts with it.
in other words, being able to see from other perspectives.
I've noticed in questions where christian believers especially, when asked a "what if" scenario in which they would have to view from a non-christian point of view, they dodge doing so. answers include "I know that Jesus is lord" etc.
is it fear of metaphysical retribution or is it a gross inability to step outside of yourselves?
ahh, Lyssa, but I'm not talking about arguing. I'm talking about actually placing yourself in the shoes of the opposite viewpoint to understand them.

Pytanie #7:
yeah that's right check it out:

Aryan (IPA: /'ərɪən/) is an English language loanword. As the American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language states at the beginning of its definition, "[it] is one of the ironies of history that Aryan, a word nowadays referring to the blond-haired, blue-eyed physical ideal of Nazi Germany, originally referred to a people who looked vastly different. Its history starts with the ancient Indo-Iranians, peoples who inhabited parts of what are now Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India."[1]
As an adaptation of the Latin Arianus, referring to Iran, 'Aryan' has "long been in English language use".[2] Its history as a loan word began in the late 1700s, when the word was borrowed from Sanskrit ā́rya- to mean the same thing it originally did in that Old Indic language, namely as a (self-)identifier of speakers of North Indian languages.[2] When it was determined that Iranian languages – both living and ancient – used a similar term in much the same way (but in the Iranian context as a self-identifier of Iranian peoples), it became apparent that the shared meaning had to derive from the ancestor language of the shared past, and so, by the early 1800s, the word 'Aryan' came to refer the group of languages deriving from that ancestor language, and by extension, the speakers of those languages.[3]
Then, in the 1830s, the term "Aryan" was adopted for speakers of Indo-European languages in general, in the erroneous belief that this was an ethnic self-identifier used by prehistoric speakers of European languages. This development was in turn instrumental to the development of the concept of an "Aryan race", which by the early 20th century became closely linked to Nordicism, which posited Northern European racial superiority over all other peoples (including Indians and Iranians). In Nazi Germany the classification of peoples as Aryan or not was most emphatically directed towards the exclusion of Jews.[4][n 1] This racialist interpretation engendered both the "Aryanization" programs of Nazi Germany, and – in a late 19th century British-mediated form – to a racialist reinterpretation of Indian society, texts and history. Following the end of World War II and the discovery of the genocide that the self-styled "Aryans" had caused, the word 'Aryan' ceased to have a positive meaning in general Western understanding. In colloquial modern English it is typically used to signify the Nordic racial ideal promoted by the Nazis.

Pytanie #8:
i know that some conspiracy theorists on this forum will give me a "yes" to this question, but i think that more people than they think that what's happening with our money (no, i mean, our DEBT) looks just a touch like the setup of another military state much like how the SS took over germany in the '30s.
i hope you know that hitler started his totalitarian rampage and total destruction of freedom by:
(1) using the state of the economy as the excuse for
(2) eliminating the presidency of germany.
i hope you know that then, hitler declared germany to be a military power with him as the "father" of it, and that if germans disagreed with the military "government" that he created, they were dragged off to be tortured and killed long before the concentration camps were built.
today, 1.17.2009, our congress has given the go-ahead to lending banking interests such as citi another $825 billion of the money that we do not have to pull them out of whatever they are doing wrong with the first $700 billion.
why are these interests not held accountable (what with all their overpaid corporate accountants and CFOs) for how they have already spent the first $700 billion before we hand them another $825 billion that we do not even have?
what with the prime rate so low, why haven't they been lending all that money to BUSINESSES in the united states so that they can pay their operating expenses, particularly, their payroll--of paying their EMPLOYEES?!?
i think the effort to save them ties into the collapse of all the economies in the world, creating a global depression, but i am asking for you to back up whatever you say here (even if you believe in conspiracy theories) as to how this drain on your grandchildren's grandchildren's income, via taxes, taxes, taxes and more taxes, may lead to a state of affairs whereby some coup d'tat could occur, similar to what happened in germany, to de-seat the president and other government officials and the us supreme court justices so that our constitution is burned along with publications, much like this one (news), in book-burning ceremonies of totalitarian rage.
there is an odor that i smell of the entire collapse of all reason, of all decency, of all citizenry, of all freedom, due to the collapse of the economy.
there's a term (sorry, i forgot the exact wording, maybe you can help me to remember it) in economics that represents the time when the income that goes to the federal government is not enough to pay even the interest on its loans. i smell it coming. do you? why? and if you do, what do you plan to do about it? how will you do what you intend to do? if you have no money, how?
what happens now and in the near future with our MONEY (sorry, i meant debt) could be a setup for the toppling of our republic. do you agree or disagree? why?
as you may know by now, i will immediately issue a thumbs down if you leave a pat one line answer that has no thought behind it. here is a link for you to consider before you answer this question.

In English we say --
England
Ireland
Scotland
While in Spanish (and I may misspell) they say --
Inglaterra ( England )
Irlanda ( Ireland )

Notice how the English Suffix "-land" is different.
I guess Spanish must not use a "direct" translation. in this case?
Could it be because English is from German, despite our borrwowing of Latin, Spanish, & French for "loan" words, whereas...

French
In loan words from the French language spelling and diacritics are usually preserved (e.g., café in the meaning of coffeehouse). For this reason German typewriters and computer keyboards offer three dead keys, one for accent grave, one for acute and one for circumflex (`, ´ and ^).
The German alphabet consists of the same 26 letters as the modern Roman alphabet:The German language (Deutsch, [dɔʏ̯tʃ] (help·info)) is a West Germanic language and one of the world's major languages. German is closely related to and classified alongside English and Dutch. Around the world, German is spoken by ~100 million native speakers and also ~80 million non-native speakers, and Standard German is widely taught in schools and universities in Europe.source wikipedia

I argue that all new immigrants should be have a mandatory cooling off period, followed by 5 years of proven paid employment with taxation records to substantiate, before being allowed any access to publically-funded welfare of any sort.
In the case of economic hardship welfare by deferred low-interest loan only and surrender of passports.
This would restrict welfare to only those who have been proven contributors and thus, eliminate scammers.
It would remove the non-contributing new-entrant drain on a heavily burdened system which most likely the two main parties are not keen to further fund and most likely will privatise the most economcially viable (NHS will be 1st- mark my words [if you had it- and were a slimey politician- wouldn't you flog it off too?]) it'll go to a German insurer- I'd put money on it)

Pytanie #17:
Rush Limbaugh, the conservative talk-radio pioneer, has been called many nasty things before, but never a “structural imbalance.” That’s the fancy term a liberal think tank uses to characterize his success — and to dress up its proposal for counteracting that success through new government regulation.
The report of the Center for American Progress on “The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio” marks the latest phase in liberaldom’s grappling with conservative talk radio. First came the attempts to create a liberal Limbaugh — Mario Cuomo, Jim Hightower, et al. — that fell flat. Then an entire left-wing network, Air America, was founded, and foundered. So there’s only one option left — if you can’t beat them, and you won’t join them, you can agitate for government to regulate them.
The report looks at a slice of 257 talk stations and concludes that more than 90 percent of total weekday talk programming is conservative. The supposed reason for this is, essentially, that media companies are conspiring to shove conservative radio down the throats of listeners in a way they couldn’t if, among other things, government required broadcasters “to regularly show that they are operating on behalf of the public interest.”
This is a pinched view of radio. There are upwards of 2,000 talk stations in the country that deal with news and issues, according to Michael Harrison of Talkers magazine, and they encompass all sorts of formats from National Public Radio to urban radio to shock jocks, none of which are dominated by right wingers. Conservative talk radio is a vibrant niche within that market, but there are many other places to go for news and opinion.
What is hard to find are liberal replicas of Rush Limbaugh, and that is due to the deepest structural imbalance of all — talent. Limbaugh and other top conservative talkers are silver-tongued, informative, and — importantly — entertaining. These are qualities that can’t be conjured out of nowhere, and designated liberal-radio saviors have tended not to have the requisite talent “on loan from God” (as Limbaugh puts it).
There have been conservative failures at talk radio for the same reason. Without the right mix of substance and entertainment, a host will fail to get ratings, and, with that, be yanked from the air. “Ratings” is a word that appears only once in passing in the Center for American Progress report, because then it would have to acknowledge that conservative radio is successful exactly because it gets listeners.
Broadcasters go where the money is. If a liberal could draw the kind of listeners — and hence the kind of advertising dollars — as Limbaugh, he too would be on more than 600 stations. This is why Spanish-language radio is such a growth commodity. Not because broadcasters have an agenda to Hispanicize America, or because there’s a structural imbalance that favors Spanish-language over German- or French-language programming, but because there’s an audience for it.
The Center for American Progress wants to short-circuit the market. Having bureaucrats determine whether radio stations are serving the public interest is inherently dangerous. There are times — like now, in the debate about the immigration bill — when Democrats and Republicans in Washington will agree that conservative talk radio is not serving the public interest, because it brings to the table public sentiment that the establishment prefers to ignore.
The report avoids directly calling for a renewal of the constitutionally dubious Fairness Doctrine that mandated equal time for conservative and liberal opinions, although some Democratic lawmakers aren’t so circumspect. After five years of opposing most assertions of government power to fight terrorism, these liberals are ready to wield it to fight conservative talk radio. After maintaining that the First Amendment protects nude dancing, they are ready to argue that it doesn’t quite apply to people broadcasting conservative views over the airwaves.
In our toxic contemporary politics, it’s a sign of success if you drive your opponents batty. Rush Limbaugh might be a structural imbalance, but his critics appear simply imbalanced.
Pytanie #18:
In the guidelines that everybody seems to take way too seriously and abuse by reporting ideologies with which they disagree, it says DON'T "Post in the wrong language, or post content that is incomprehensible. Content written in Spanish is in violation if it appears on any Answers English sites, and content written in English is in violation if it appears on any Answers Spanish sites."
A loan word is a word that is directly taken into one language from another with little or no translation.
The word "angst" is a German word that is now an English word (also, it's utterly ridiculous that foreign words are allowed if one puts quotation marks around them). In related news, an exonym is an English word for a place that is not used within that place by the local inhabitants, or a name for a people or language that is not used by the people or language to which it refers.
The name used by the people or locals themselves is an endonym or autonym. For example, Deutschland is an endonym for Germany; Germany is an English exonym for the Deutschland, so if I refer to Germany on a German-speaking site, it's a violation and I can have my account deleted. A little harsh? I can barely ask a question about the guidelines without violating the guidelines.
Certain loan words have long crossed the line from foreign to American English to the point that people are surprised that they have the same meaning in another language.
The United States is known as a melting pot of cultures, so various words become English words, especially French words and Spanish words because of Mexico to the south and Canada to the north.
Conversely, English words are common in other countries, especially Spanish.
The word "Spanglish" is a name used to refer to a range of language-contact phenomena, primarily in the speech of the Latino population of the United States which is exposed to both Spanish and English.
Does the Delete-O-Matic take this into consideration, or does it just delete anything that gets reported?

in etymology, some dic and encylopedias refers to the origin of this word as [French, from Italian salone, augmentative of sala, hall, of Germanic origin.]
does the word the word (Sala) means (hall) in German? if so is it loan word or original one? i do not understand German but in Arabic we say (Salon) when refer to the (parlor) and (Salah) means (wide place) or (reception room). Any linguist here, What do u think?
drshorty
I do not care where did English word (salon) in specific come from. iam talking about the origin of the word (the root) (the core)! and who said English is dcended from Arabic!!? if course it is not. Arabic is much older and belong to what scholars call (acient semitic languages).anywat if the English word come from French and German word come from French too and on the other hand French loan it from Spanish then the word must be from the its origin Arabic word (Salah) maybe this is not what many western linguists want to happen but we should seek the truth. thanks for taking time to write an answer :)
Piffle
No, not at all dude, simply because Hebrew was an extinct till a very recent time. consequently, as a language Hebrew did not play any role during the Islamic civilization. thanks anyway.
