Book Description
Rumor Mora fears two things: hellhounds too strong for him to kill, and failure. Jude Welton has two dreams: for humans to stop killing monsters, and for his strange abilities to vanish. But in no reality should a boy raised to love monsters fall for a boy raised to kill them. Nyx Llorca keeps two secrets: the moon speaks to her, and she's in love with her best friend, Dahlia. Braeden Tennant wants two things: to get out from his mother's shadow, and to unlearn his colony’s darkest secret. To save everyone they love, they'll both have to commit treason. During one twenty-seven-hour night, these four runaways must stop the war between the colonies and the monsters from becoming a war of extinction, or the things they fear most will be all that's left.

Pages : 128
Book Description
Have you wondered how to explain the deep truths of the Bible in a simple manner to children? If so, this book was written for you. Author Melinda Hindley's own experiences in life and personal Bible study have led her to fill this need of parents and teachers of young children. Using simple language, the origin of sin and the plan of salvation are laid out so that children can grasp these grand themes on a level appropriate to their age. Stories of Lucifer's fall, Eve's deception, Cain's rebellion, and Noah and the Flood are told in short, simple sentences. Each story leaves plenty of room for parents or teachers to build upon as they deem suitable. The Beginning of Lies is appropriate for early readers to read independently. However, it is recommended that an adult read with them to help the child understand the concepts in the stories and answer any questions the child may have. Melinda hopes that this book will help the reader and the listener have a deeper understanding of God's love, and to respond to that even more than they do already.

The Categories of Grammar
Author: Alan Huffman
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing
ISBN: 9027230331
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
This book offers an analysis of the French clitic object pronouns lui and le in the radically functional Columbia school framework, contrasting this framework with sentence-based treatments of case selection. It suggests that features of the sentence such as subject and object relations, normally taken as pretheoretical categories of observation about language, are in fact part of a theory of language which does not withstand empirical testing. It shows that the correct categories are neither those of structural case nor those of lexical case, but rather, semantic ones. Traditionally, anomalies in the selection of dative and accusative case in French, such as case government, use of the dative for possession and disadvantaging, its use in the faire-causative construction, and other puzzling distributional irregularities have been used to support the idea of an autonomous, non-functional central core of syntactic phenomena in language. The present analysis proposes semantic constants for lui and le which render all their occurrences explicable in a straightforward way. The same functional perspective informs issues of cliticity and pronominalization as well. The solution offered here emerges from an innovative instrumental view of linguistic meaning, an acknowledgment that communicative output is determined only partially and indirectly by purely linguistic input, with extralinguistic knowledge and human inference bridging the gap. This approach entails identification of the pragmatic factors influencing case selection and a reevaluation of thematic-role theory, and reveals the crucial impact of discourse on the structure as well as the functioning of grammar. One remarkable feature of the study is its extensive and varied data base. The hypothesis is buttressed by hundreds of fully contextualized examples and large-scale counts drawn from modern French texts.
