bigger is better, but is it truly? Short words and how they are superior to the long is explained in the simplistic style he shares in Mr. Richard Lederer’s essay The Case for Short Words. We never do think of how when we say things simply the meaning comes across quickly and in other cases more meaningful.

Science Class: A word wall for scientific vocabulary can be created for courses like Chemistry, Physical Science, Earth Science, and Physics core classes. For example, in chemistry a word wall for physical changes, chemical change, and periodic table vocabulary can be constructed by the students. For Physics, words like speed, velocity, kinetic energy, and potential energy can be posted on the wall for a lesson on forces and motion to help facilitate the acquisition of academic terminology for

“CUNT” The C-Word Words matter. They have the power to hurt or heal. The words we choose have consequences. They reveal our prejudices and our character. They are a product of our culture and our cultures prejudices. The word “cunt” is currently thought of as one of the most offensive words in the English language.

“Words are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively using words of despair. Words have energy and the power with the ability to hurt, to harm, to humiliate, and to humble” (Yehunda Burg).

This is of particular importance for ASR systems required to deal with code-switched speech or proper names of foreign origin. For words that occur in the language model, but do not occur in the pronunciation lexicon, text-based language identification (T-LID) of a single word in isolation may be required. This is a challenging task, especially for short words. We motivate for the importance of accurate
