Language was and is still is a huge deciding factor for many a great civilization. 

 

 

 

 

Let me show you how. English, though not the most natively spoken language, yet has a huge base of non-native English speakers i.e, the secondary speakers. The novels, short stories, web series and movies or animation movies made in English have been huge success worldwide compared to other language(although the pattern is changing from past few years with movies released in multiple languages). In fact, the very fact that I'm writing it in English and you're reading it shows the great extent of this language. pheww....!!!! I hate English because I had to dedicate a whole part of my brain apart from my native language Odia and other languages like Hindi, Bengali, bihari etc.. to just do the same thing as any other European person would do. which is just communication(personal and professional), maybe a little bit of higher studies...just kidding. And as unbelievable as it may sound, I like English as it gives most of us a way to communicate rather than just wait for a third person translator.

Similarity of words from various Indian language

Language is a very intriguing topic. Although everyone uses it on daily basis (I'd say everyone except if you're an introvert or mounbratadhari (even mute person use language, the sign language)) not many of us take the beauty of the language into consideration. Language was and is still is a huge deciding factor for many a great civilization. Languages of the ancient civilization like the Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Chinese, Mayan, Babylonian, Greeks and early vedic era in India are the major ones which influenced subsequent daughter languages at a later date to a great extent.           Coming back to the Indian subcontinent, we know that there's three major categories to which most of the languages fall into, namely Indo-Aryan, Dravidian and austro Asiatic language family. If you're a bilingual(a very common thing if you belong to the strata where knowing more than one language is necessary) then you might as well notice that there's a lot of words that are...

Tycho Brahe and Nicolaus Copernicus were two giants of astronomy, but their approaches to understanding the cosmos were distinctly different. While Copernicus proposed a revolutionary heliocentric model (where the Sun is at the center of the universe), Brahe was a meticulous observer who amassed vast amounts of data on celestial bodies. The Outlier: A Bridge Between Worlds Brahe's observations were incredibly accurate for his time, far surpassing those of his predecessors. He meticulously recorded the positions and movements of planets, stars, and other celestial objects. His data was invaluable, but it presented a challenge: it didn't perfectly fit either the geocentric (Earth-centered) or heliocentric models of the universe. In essence, Brahe's data was the outlier that didn't quite fit the existing theories. It was a puzzle piece that didn't seem to belong to either the old or the new picture of the cosmos. A Unique Perspective Brahe was a complex ...

Contribution of butterfly to cyclone Titli

  How in god’s name is that possible? How can something comparatively as irrelevant as a butterfly have any impact on something as big as a cyclone, that too “very severe cyclonic storm(VSCS)” as  categorized in IMD cyclone category scale. Now, a person privy to chaos theory would say it’s  possible. Not certainly probable, but not impossible either.   Before we get started, I’ll talk a little more about cyclone Titli. VSCS Titli was a tropical cyclone  that was deadly and destructive, it caused a huge loss and damage to Eastern India. Titli was the  fifth named storm to form in the North Indian ocean in 2018. It originated as a low pressure system on October 7 in Andaman sea, with IMD estimated peak winds of 150 Km/h on late October 10 just hours before landfall. Titli made landfall over the eastern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, and weakened as it moved northeastward towards Odisha. By October 12, it got degenerate enough to die out.  ...
