The Tabular Islamic calendar is a variation of the Islamic calendar. It has the same numbering of years and months, but the months are determined by rules rather than by observing the crescent moon directly. The calendar was developed by early Muslim astronomers of the second hijra century (the 8th century of the Common Era). They wanted to be able to predict the positions of the moon, sun, and planets. It is now used by historians to convert an Islamic date into a Western calendar when no other information (like the day of the week) is available. Its calendar era is the Hijri year and its epoch (year 1) is the date of the Hijra (622 in the Common Era or Gregorian calendar). Uses. It is used by some Muslims in everyday life, particularly in Ismaili and Shi'a communities, who believe that this calendar was developed by Ali. They believe that when Ali drew up this calendar, the previous events of the earlier prophets also fell into line with this calendar. It is their belief that all Fatimid Imams and their Da'is have followed this tradition. Days and months. Each year has 12 months. The odd numbered months have 30 days and the even numbered months have 29 days, except in a leap year when the 12th and final month Dhu al-Hijjah has 30 days.

The Caribbean reef squid ("Sepioteuthis sepioidea") is a species of torpedo-shaped squid. It is mostly found in the Caribbean sea and sometimes found off the coast of Florida. They are found in schools (groups) of about thirty at a time. Baby squids live closer to the shore than the older ones. The squid can eat 30-60% of their body weight daily. The Caribbean reef squid uses its beak to cut their food up so that it is easier to process. They communicate using the colors of their body as well as shape and texture.

The veined tree frog, merian frog, common tree frog, warty tree frog, marbled tree frog, lost treefrog, Laurenti's brown tree frog, vein-eyed glue frog, Amazon milk frog, or pepper tree frog ("Trachycephalus typhonius") is a frog that lives in Brazil, Colombia, Nicaragua, Surname, Argentina, Bolivia, Guianas, Paraguay, Argentina, Venezuela, Peru, Trinidad, and Tobago. This animal is large for a tree frog. The adult male is 7.0 to 10.0 cm long from nose to rear end and the adult female is 9.3 to 11.4 cm long. It has thick yellow, gray, or red-brown skin on its back with a large tan or brown mark. It has strong toes with disks on them for climbing. There is a little webbing on the front feet and more webbing on the back feet. The adult male frog has vocal sacs for singing. Unlike other tree frogs, it has green bones and solid color on its sides. But it can have stripes on its legs. This frog hides during the day and looks for food at night. People have seen it high in the tree branches. This frog lays eggs after big rainstorms. The female lays eggs on the surface of a pond. The tadpoles take 37 to 47 days to become young frogs. The tadpoles have large lungs and large gills. This is because there is not much oxygen in the warm water where they live. They eat algae. Scientists have seen this frog glide through the air. They call this kind of gliding parachuting. The frog falls in the same direction, with its legs spread out. This frog makes a sticky white substance in its skin. This substance has chemicals that can cause human beings' skin and eyes to hurt. One of its names "pepper tree frog," comes from the idea that it makes people sneeze, like pepper does. If a snake or other predator tries to eat the frog, it will make this white substance come out of its skin. This will hurt the predator's mouth so the frog can hop away. Because this substance does not dissolve in water, like wax does not, scientists also think it might also stop the frog from drying out and dying.
The reservoir tree frog ("Bokermannohyla luctuosa") is a frog that lives in Brazil. Appearance. This frog is large for a tree frog. It is 5.5 to 7.0 cm long from nose to rear end. It has large eyes that stick out. Its eardrums are not fully round; they are oval instead. It has disks on its toes for climbing. The skin on its back is brown and the skin on its sides and belly are creamy white. The skin on its legs can be brown with black marks. The male frogs have vocal slits on their necks. Home. This frog lives in forests. Human beings tend to see it near bodies of water that dry up for part of the year. Human beings to see it on days when it has rained softly. Threats. There are fewer of these frogs than there were. This is because human beings cut down the forests where they live for lumber, to build towns and farms, and to make places for animals to eat grass.
The voiced velar stop is a type of consonant. The letter for this sound in the International Phonetic Alphabet is ⟨⟩. The X-SAMPA symbol for this sound is ⟨g⟩. The English language has this sound, and it is the sound represented by the "g" in "gear" and "grow". Features. See also: Voiced uvular lateral fricative
Linguolabials or apicolabials are consonants articulated by putting the tip of the tongue against the top-side of the lip. The lip then goes to the tongue. Linguolabial consonants are not seen very often in languages, but they are not very hard to make with your mouth, unlike click consonants or ejectives. Some languages that do have lots of linguolabial consonants are Vanuatu, Bijago, in Umotína and as paralinguistic sounds. They can be sometimes seen in disordered speech. They can be typed as to the alveolar consonant that fits it. You can also use the apical diacritic, to the bilabial consonant that fits it.
The voiceless bilabial nasal is a type of consonant. It is a rare sound. The letter for this sound in the International Phonetic Alphabet is ⟨⟩. The X-SAMPA symbol for this sound is ⟨m_0⟩. The English language does not have the sound. Features. Features of the voiceless alveolar trill:
A close vowel, also called a high vowel, is a type of vowel. It is used in many spoken languages. When you say a close vowel, your tongue is very close to the top of your mouth. It isn't touching the top, however, because if it were to touch the top of your mouth, it would be called a consonant. "Close" is recommended by the International Phonetic Association. In America, however, they are called high vowels. List of close vowels. In the International Phonetic Alphabet are six closed vowels: There also are three close vowels that don't have symbols in the IPA:
English is a language with many ways to pronounce things. Pronunciation changes both through history and from dialect to dialect. Mostly, however, English has a mostly similar phonological system throughout the world. Most dialects are different from one another because they have different types of stress in syllables. Stops, affricates, and fricatives are also changed in consonants in different dialects. There is also lots of research done on prestige(more formal) or standard(more common). These can mean Received Pronunciation for England, General American for the United States and General Australian for Australia. Many dialects will grow independently from other dialect which make them different from others. Consonants. Most dialects in English use the shown 24 consonants. is a little less common. There are, of course, exceptions to all of these in accents such as Hiberno English, New York, South Asian, etc. Consonant examples. The table below shows common examples of words in English that start with these letters. Vowels. English has an unusually large number of vowels. In English, vowels in different dialects change a lot. These vowels can also be written differently throughout different dialects. For example, the vowel in is in Received Pronunciation but in General American. John C. Wells made a popular lexicon set that shows the pronunciation in Received Pronunciation(RP) and General American(GA). It is shown below. The next three tables show the vowel phonemes in Received Pronunciation, General American and General Australian. Some of the short vowels may also be combined with ( "bay", "buy", "boy"), with ( , "beau") or with ( "peer", "pair", "poor"). The vowel inventory of English RP in MacCarthy's system therefore totals only seven phonemes. Analyses such as these could also posit six vowel phonemes, if the vowel of the final syllable in "comma" is considered to be an unstressed allophone of that of "strut". These seven vowels might be symbolized , , , , , and . Six or seven vowels is a figure that would put English much closer to the average number of vowel phonemes in other
