further that it has a subject, and it indicates time. Most often, the Indo-European languages divide time into three divisions – present, past, and future. Greek, however, seems to have too many tenses. Dionysios Thrax explains that the past has four subdivisions: the imperfect, perfect, pluperfect, and aorist. In addition, “among these, there are three groups: present to imperfect, perfect to pluperfect, and aorist to future.” Although this feature of the verb is not obviously apparent in…
Living in the moment. The infamous line, which we heard at least once or twice in our lives, derives from the notion of the Latin word carpe diem. The 21st century took a tremendous turn when Drake came out with a song called “The Motto”, ultimately having a varied influence on people’s lives. The rapper shoved down the word “YOLO” in everyone’s head, implying to not live by any pressures dictated by contemporary society. But what does carpe diem really imply? Think about it. If we live by…
mentality brutally revoked. In the short poem Death of the Hat by Billy Collins, the hat stands for considerably more then an object placed upon the head. Collins exemplifies the hat in unique ways, observing the “use” of the hat in both the past and the present. Flashing back in time to when all humans still owned hats, not as an object, but rather as a vehicle for the mentality of this time, it’s easily observed that the “hat” is a normal commodity. Just as a person is defined for the lack of…

When I first started learning guitar, I was completely self taught. I studied the basic chords, which are sequences of notes played…

David Shapiro’s poem stood out to me when presented in class because of the poem 's sentimental dedication to a friend and the malleability it could have for an imitation. My first thought was that I could change “And so the snow fell” into its natural contrast of “And so the fire ignited," but I figured many of my classmates would have the same idea, so I decided to do a more abstract take on the poem. This led me to the notion that imitating the poem would be much easier and much more…
and the last two lines in DD. This rhythme scheme is an important feature to the poem as it moves forward while envisioning the past. The word “have” being repeated throughout the poem is a great example as the speaker talks in a present tense tone using past tense words. Another important feature of Frost’s poem is the iambic pentameter of ten syllables for each line. Pairing stressed syllables after unstressed syllables for a steady rhythm similar to a heartbeat or footsteps. The form of…
raped her, trying to get him killed. Yet, she doesn’t know about the problems that can erupt from having an innocent man killed. The tone of both the book and the song is tense. You feel tense and a bit excited in the song when the speaker is talking about the problems he faces when he gets to his girlfriend. In the book, it is tense because you find out Mayella’s real reason for going to court. This happened in chapter…
