PRONOUN

Definition:

A word (one of the traditional parts of speech) that takes the place of a noun, noun phrase, or noun clause. A pronoun can function as a subject, object, or complement in a sentence. Unlike nouns, pronouns rarely allow modification. Pronouns are a closed word class in English: new members rarely enter the language.
There are several different classes of pronouns:
·         Demonstrative Pronouns
·         Indefinite Pronouns
·         Interrogative Pronouns
·         Intensive Pronouns
·         Personal Pronouns
·         Possessive Pronouns
·         Reciprocal Pronouns
·         Reflexive Pronouns
·         Relative Pronouns

Examples:
·         "She got her looks from her father. He's a plastic surgeon."
(Groucho Marx)

·         Chalmers: Well, Seymour, it seems we've put together a baseball team and I was wondering, who's on first, eh?
Skinner: Not the pronoun, but rather a player with the unlikely name of "Who" is on first.
Chalmers: Well that's just great, Seymour. We've been out here six seconds and you've already managed to blow the routine.
("Screaming Yellow Honkers," The Simpsons, 1999)

·         "We rolled all over the floor, in each other's arms, like two huge helpless children. He was naked and goatish under his robe, and I felt suffocated as he rolled over him. We rolled over me. They rolled over him. We rolled over us."
(Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita)

·         "I used to be with it, but then they changed what 'it' was. Now, what I'm with isn't it, and what's 'it' seems weird and scary to me."
(Abe in "Homerpalooza," The Simpsons)

·         "Why shouldn't things be largely absurd, futile, and transitory? They are so, and we are so, and they and we go very well together."
(George Santayana)

·         "I am he as you are he as you are me and we are all together."
(John Lennon and Paul McCartney, "I Am the Walrus")

Demonstrative Pronouns

Definition:

A determiner that points to a particular noun or to the noun it replaces. There are four demonstratives in English: the "near" demonstratives this and these, and the "far" demonstratives that and those.
A demonstrative pronoun distinguishes its antecedent from similar things. When a demonstrative precedes a noun, it is sometimes called a demonstrative adjective.

Examples :

·         "In those days spirits were brave, the stakes were high, men were real men, women were real women and small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri were real small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri."
(Douglas Adams, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, 1979)

·         "Those who believe in telekinetics, raise my hand."
(Kurt Vonnegut)

·         "Like other determiner classes, the demonstrative pronoun must replace or stand for a clearly stated antecedent. In the following example, that does not refer to 'solar energy'; it has no clear antecedent:

Our contractor is obviously skeptical about solar energy. That doesn't surprise me.


Indefinite Pronouns

Definition:

A pronoun that refers to an unspecified person or thing. Indefinite pronouns include quantifiers (some, any, enough, several, many, much); universals (all, both, every, each); and partitives (any, anyone, anybody, either, neither, no, nobody, some, someone). Many of the indefinite pronouns can function as determiners.

Examples :

·         "For many are called, but few are chosen."
(Bible, Matthew 22.14)

·         "You can fool all the people some of the time; you can fool some of the people all the time; but you can't fool all the people all the time."
(Abraham Lincoln, speech at the Republican state convention in Bloomington, Indiana, on May 29, 1856)

·         "No one wants to hear about my sciatica."
(Bart Simpson, The Simpsons)

Interrogative Pronouns

Definition:

A term in traditional grammar for a pronoun that introduces a question.
The five interrogative pronouns in English are who, whom, whose, which, and what.
Examples :
·         "Even if you do learn to speak correct English, whomare you going to speak it to?"
(Clarence Darrow)

·         "When a man tells you that he got rich through hard work, ask him: 'Whose?'"
(Don Marquis)

Intensive Pronouns

Definition:

A pronoun ending in -self or -selves that serves to emphasize itsantecedent.
Intensive pronouns often appear as appositives after nouns or other pronouns.
Intensive pronouns have the same forms as reflexive pronouns. Unlike reflexive pronouns, intensive pronouns are not essential to the basic meaning of a sentence.

Examples :

·         "He wondered, as he had many times wondered before, whether he himself was a lunatic."
(George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four, 1948)

·         "But it is only through constant, faithful endeavor by the girl herself that the goal eventually is reached."
(Florenz Ziegfeld)


Personal Pronouns

Definition:

A pronoun that refers to a particular person, group, or thing. Like all pronouns, personal pronouns can take the place of nouns and noun phrases.
These are the personal pronouns in English:
·         First-person singular: I (subject); me (object)
·         First-person plural: we (subject); us (object)
·         Second-person singular and plural: you (subject andobject)
·         Third-person singular: he, she, it (subject); him, her, it (object)
·         Third-person plural: they (subject); them (object)

Note that personal pronouns inflect for case to show whether they are serving as subjects of clauses or as objects of verbs or prepositions.
Also note that all of the personal pronouns exceptyou have distinct forms indicating number, either singular or plural. Only the third-person singular pronouns have distinct forms indicating gender: masculine (he, him), feminine (she, her), and neuter (it). A personal pronoun (such as they) that can refer to both masculine and feminine entities is called ageneric pronoun.

Examples :

·         "Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys themso much."
(Oscar Wilde)

·         "From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down, I was convulsed with laughter. Some day Iintend reading it."
(Groucho Marx)

·         "I stopped believing in Santa Claus when my mother took me to see him in a department store, and he asked for my autograph."
(Shirley Temple)

Possessive Pronouns

Definition:

A pronoun that can take the place of a noun phrase to show ownership (as in "This phone is mine").
The weak possessives (also called possessive determiners) function as adjectives in front of nouns. The weak possessives are my, your, his, her, its, our, and their.
In contrast, the strong (or absolute) possessive pronouns stand on their own: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, and theirs.
A possessive pronoun never takes an apostrophe.

Examples :

·         "We were both work-study kids with University jobs. Hers was in the library; mine was in the Commons cafeteria."
(Stephen King, Joyland. Titan Books, 2013)

·         "Go on, get inside the TARDIS. Oh, never given you a key? Keep that. Go on, that’s yours. Quite a big moment really!"
(The Doctor to Donna in "The Poison Sky." Doctor Who, 2005)

Reciprocal Pronouns

Definition:

A pronoun that expresses mutual action or relationship. In English the reciprocal pronouns are each other and one another.
Some usage guides insist that each other should be used to refer to two people or things, and one another to more than two. (But see Examples and Observations, below.) As Bryan Garner has observed, "Careful writers will doubtless continue to observe the distinction, but no one else will notice" (Garner's Modern American Usage, 2009).

Examples :

·         "Leadership and learning are indispensable to each other."
(John F. Kennedy, in a speech prepared for delivery on the day of his assassination, November 22, 1963)

·         "Men often hate each other because they fear each other; they fear each other because they don't know each other; they don't know each other because they can not communicate; they can not communicate because they are separated."
(Martin Luther King, Jr., Stride Toward Freedom: The Montgomery Story, 1958)

Reflexive Pronouns

Definition:

A pronoun ending in -self or -selves that is used as an object to refer to a previously named noun or pronoun in a sentence.
Reflexive pronouns usually follow verbs or prepositions.
Reflexive pronouns have the same forms as intensive pronouns. Unlike intensive pronouns, reflexive pronouns are essential to the meaning of a sentence.

Examples :

·         "Good breeding consists of concealing how much we think of ourselves and how little we think of the other person."
(Mark Twain)

·         "Better to write for yourself and have no public, than to write for the public and have no self."
(Cyril Connolly)

Relative Pronouns

Definition:

A pronoun that introduces an adjective clause (also called a relative clause).
The standard relative pronouns in English are which, that, who, whom, and whose. Who and whom refer only to people. Which refers to things, qualities, and ideas--never to people. That and whose refer to people, things, qualities, and ideas.
Examples :

·         "One of the smaller girls did a kind of puppet dance while her fellow clowns laughed at her. But the tall one, who was almost a woman, said something very quietly, which I couldn't hear."
(Maya Angelou, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, 1969)

"Spaghetti at her table, which was offered at least three times a week, was a mysterious red, white, and brown concoction."
(Maya Angelou, Mom & Me & Mom, 2013)

Subject, Verb, Complement and Modifier SUBJECT

Definition:

The part of a sentence or clause that commonly indicates (a) what it is about, or (b) who or what performs the action (that is, the agent).
The subject is typically a noun, noun phrase, or pronoun. In a declarative sentence, the subject usually appears before the verb ("Gus never smiles"). In an interrogative sentence, the subject usually follows the first part of a verb ("Does Gus ever smile?").

Examples :

·         "My master made me this collar. He is a good and smart master, and he made me this collar so that I may speak."
(Dug in Up, 2009)

·         "Baseball is dull only to dull minds."
(Red Barber)

·         "Fettucini alfredo is macaroni and cheese for adults."
(Mitch Hedberg)

·         "You can't try to do things; you simply must do them."
(Ray Bradbury)

·         "Great spirits have always encountered violent opposition from mediocre minds."
(Albert Einstein)

·         "This is not a book that should be tossed lightly aside. It should be hurled with great force.
(Dorothy Parker)

VERB
Definition:

The part of speech (or word class) that describes an action or occurrence or indicates a state of being. There are two main classes of verbs: (1) the large open class of lexical verbs (also known as main verbs or full verbs--that is, verbs that aren't dependent on other verbs); and (2) the small closed class of auxiliary verbs (also called helping verbs). The two subtypes of auxiliaries are the primary auxiliaries (be, have, and do), which can also act as lexical verbs, and the modal auxiliaries (can, could, may, might, must, ought, shall, should, will, and would).
Verbs and verb phrases usually function as predicates. They can display differences in tense, mood, aspect, number, person, and voice.

Examples:

·         "Do what you can, with what you have, where you are."
(Theodore Roosevelt)

·         "In the whole vast configuration of things, I'd say you were nothing but a scurvy little spider."
(Jimmy Stewart, It's a Wonderful Life, 1946)

·         "Automobiles, skirting a village green, are like flies that have gained the inner ear--theybuzz, cease, pause, start, shift, stop, halt, brake, and the whole effect is a nervous polytone curiously disturbing."
(E.B. White, "Walden")

·         "Behind the phony tinsel of Hollywood lies the real tinsel."
(Oscar Levant)

·         "He slipped through the door and oozed out, and I was alone."
(P.G. Wodehouse, Thank You, Jeeves, 1934)

·         "Some people say that I must be a terrible person, but it is not true. I have the heart of a young boy in a jar on my desk."
(Stephen King)

·         "There are so many ways for speakers to see the world. We can glimpse, glance, visualize, view, look, spy, or ogle. Stare, gawk, or gape. Peek, watch, or scrutinize. Each word suggestssome subtly different quality . . .."
(Joshua Foer, "Utopian for Beginners." The New Yorker, December 24 & 31, 2012)

COMPLEMENT
Definition:

In grammar, a word or word group that completes the predicate in a sentence.
In contrast to modifiers, which are optional, complements are required to complete the meaning of a sentence or a part of a sentence.

Examples :

·         My uniform is torn and dirty.

·         My uniform is a T-shirt and jeans.

·         "Imagination is the one weapon in the war against reality."
(Jules de Gaultier)

·         "Love is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke."
(Lynda Barry)

·         "Libel actions, when we look at them in perspective, are an ornament of a civilized society."
(Henry Anatole Grunwald)




MODIFIER
Definition:

A word, phrase, or clause that functions as an adjective or adverb to limit or qualify the meaning of another word or word group (called the head).
Modifiers in English include adjectives, adverbs, demonstratives, possessive determiners, prepositional phrases, degree modifiers, and intensifiers. See Examples and Observations, below.
Modifiers that appear before the head are called premodifiers. Modifiers that appear after the head are called postmodifiers.

Examples :

·         "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautifulfriendship."
(Humphrey Bogart as Rick in Casablanca, 1942)

·         "As the leader of all illegal activities in Casablanca, I am an influential and respected man."
(Sydney Greenstreet as Senor Ferrari in Casablanca)

·         "You can tell me now. I'm reasonably sober."
(Rick in Casablanca)

·         Major Strasser: What is your nationality?
Rick: I'm a drunkard.
Captain Renault: That makes Rick a citizen of the world.
(Casablanca)

·         "I'm an excellent housekeeper. Every time I get a divorce, I keep the house."
(Zsa Zsa Gabor)

·         "I met a girl who sang the blues
and I asked her for some happy news,
but she just smiled and turned away.
And the three men I admire most,
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost,
They caught the last train to the coast
The day the music died."
(Don McLean, "American Pie")

"Sometimes when we are generous in small, barely detectable ways it can change someone else's life forever."
(Margaret Cho)

Technical race Road Race

Technical race Road Race

called learning motor racing , where again the most pol otherwise of Valentino Rossi , the world of motor racing legend dating back almost 15 years is still active and still continues to surpass records Agostini . Rossi tricks in racing continues to change with the development of his time GP500 , 990 cc and 800 cc today . Doi proved as most drivers can adjust ( or adjust the bike with Rossi 's will ?) With all the changes in the character of the motor and technological developments .
Rossi racing technique is explored at some length in the PS magazine that opportunity " diajarin " directly by the Doctor at Donington Park next year for the MotoGP history . Therefore , rather than bring shame to the name of the country by continuously reading free , finally after holding an emergency session which is quite fierce with all ministers and directors , I decided to buy this magazine ( dumplang! ! ! ! Buy magazine wrote rich want to buy Sukhoi ) .
Due to quite a lot of racing techniques plus comments from other maestros like Doohan and Schwantz , the article " Race Engineering Rossi " will be divided into several sections . On this occasion , we discussed the trick to brake .
According to Rossi , the general carrying 880 cc motorcycle can not currently seagressiv era of 990 cc or 500 cc , where the driver 's right hand being the only natural traction control . If the driver is not careful to maintain speed and racing line , so say goodbye to the other drivers on the track faster . Braking , rolling around the corner and gas pol into a unity that can not be separated ! The transition from braking , cornering and acceleration in the 800 cc class to be refined and demanding sensitivity of the riders .
How do the brakes Rossi ? Rossi braked with 3 fingers in an all-out ( with 2 fingers , Rossi was not sure ) , new brakes just before entering the bend slightly loosened and get ready for the fall . When discharged in the early phase of the brakes , hand straightened to withstand kinetic style . Agency ( ass - ed ) extended back to stuck to the back of the rear wheels to maintain stability . When before entering the corner , hands and knees stretched out to assist braking . knee in the opposite direction to bend issued to assist braking ( brake air times huh ?) , while the next leg in the lowered like a Supermoto racing . According to Rossi , the trick is actually for his own just a reflex , there is no research that says this trick riders will be shorter and require less in braking distance . He also added that this trick makes him feel can brake harder .
Stoner and Pedrosa was saying the same thing . However, Stoner admits this technique also affects the balance and center of gravity . Pedrosa otherwise not a lot of comments like the Doctor . Pedrosa said , just a reflex and helps in hard braking and closer to the corner . When questioned further , why not from all those years he was using this trick , Pedrosa said: Now we put the brakes closer to the corner , plus close .... ( meaning the last years serious ga dong ? ? ! ! ! ! Do not you want to admit Rossi bandwagon ? ? !) .
Go Bro ...
Rossi said , doi brakes 95 percent of the front tires and the rear tires 5 % , compared to the time difference 500cc and 990cc , then he used also to stabilize the rear brake motors , while in the 800 cc era , this task was taken over electronic devices . Which 5 % were in class 800 cc portions brakes yes , few indeed , but better than 0 % , right? In essence , in the 800 cc class rear brakes for braking function was 5 % , while the stability issues taken over electronic devices . ( we leave this part a bit confusing .... )
When started entering corners , removable brake as much as possible as early as possible , of course, without having to get out of the racing line . In contrast to the 990 cc which can brake up into the corner , the 800 cc racing requires a different technique . If the braking technique to fit in the corner in the 990 cc class was used , 800 cc class rider will lose speed in the corners . In the 990 cc class , the loss will be pursued with the rolling speed acceleration is more brutal than the 800cc class . Therefore, the speed at corner for the 800 cc class is more important , and more in line with the overall characteristics of the motor . So drivers who over agressiv with superbike racing style is not very developed in the 800 cc class !
According to Rossi , to be fast in the corners , he tried to find the limit where the front tires do not lose traction when cornering while braking . In the 800 cc class , the drivers can not use the technique of sliding the front tires to reduce the speed , yes because it was, in essence, the 800 cc bike is not braking into the corner as deep as motorcycle 990 cc . If you still insist , yes speed around the bend too down ! Rossi added , the moment when I started removing the brake lever is crucial , because the late 10 meters , then there goes the maximum speed in the corner ( if kecepetan , yes be rich DePuniet hobby last year jamming gravel ) . So , as much as possible the brake lever is released as early as possible , because in the 800 cc class of the most decisive is the speed of the motor when the fall ! Well why Yamaha victorious in 800 cc !
When entering a corner, hands should be relaxed and trying to find the right line . When the motor settles into a moment that determines whether or not linenya obtained . To be able to maintain the motor in his racing line , Rossi uses the body and knees . Well how Rossi conquer the corners ? Tips on what to use the Doctor to make it the most feared figure the other racers around the corner ? Are there any tips that can be practiced from Rossi when going home ? Just wait for next week ........
Said Wayne Rainey , the 500cc world champion in 1990 , 1991 and 1992 ( in 1991 ) :
In the 500cc class no engine brake , front tire sliding corner entry , if I entered the corner too fast . In essence , this is how it works : you must lay the bike and trying to get a good feeling on the front wheels . If you feel the front tires move forward slowly and become unstable , over drop your body slightly to the inside of the bend . Front tire will be sliding , and the speed will be reduced .
To " catch " the front tire was sliding a bit " tricky " . I have to deploy it all : the rear brake , my knees and my upper body .
Said Mick Doohan , the 500cc world champion from 1994 to 1998 ( in 1991 ) :
Some riders lay the bike without actually cornering , although the bike fall , him still straight . Above 500 cc in essence sliding a lot more going on behind the wheel . If the front wheel sliding , prop your body with the knee ( on the track ) and trying to stay calm . In order to keep the motor still on the racing line , during the fall you have to " hang " to the handlebars and steer the direction of the front wheels toward the outside / opposite of the bend . In addition , you can also give weight to control the footstep . According to my calculations , the role of the hands and feet here
