Historical linguistics is the study of language change.
It has five main concerns:
to study changes in particular languages
to discover the pre-history of languages, and group them into language families (comparative linguistics)
to develop theories about how and why language changes
to describe the history of speech communities
to study the history of words, etymology.
Modern historical linguistics dates from the late 18th century.
It grew out of the earlier discipline of philology, the study of ancient texts and documents dating back to antiquity.
At first, historical linguistics was comparative linguistics.
The focus was on the well-known Indo-European languages, many of which had long written histories.
Scholars also studied the Uralic languages, another language family for which less early written material exists.
Comparative linguistics is now part of a discipline of historical linguistics.
For Indo-European languages, comparative study is now a well-developed field.
Most research is being carried out on their later development, such as the development of the modern standard varieties.
Some scholars have done studies attempting to establish super-families.
They have, for example, linked Indo-European, Uralic, and other families into Nostratic.
Such attempts have not been accepted widely.
The information needed to establish relatedness becomes thinner the farther back.
The time depth of linguistic methods is limited because of chance word resemblances and variations between language groups.
Scholars can trace language changes back to around 10,000 years.
The dating of the various proto-languages is also difficult; several methods are available for dating, but only approximate results are possible.
Nostratic is a hypothetical language family which includes many of the present-day language families of Eurasia.
The idea is that Nostratic was spoken after the ice sheets melted but before people spread out throughout Europe and Asia.
Many of today's languages are descendants of Nostratic, so it is thought.
These include the Indo-European, Uralic, Altaic and Kartvelian languages.
The Afroasiatic languages, native to North Africa, the Horn of Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, and the Near East, as well as the Dravidian languages of the Indian subcontinent, are usually included as well.
The name "Nostratic" is derived from the Latin nostrates, meaning "us" (in other words, fellow countrymen).
The idea was expanded in the 1960s by Soviet linguists, called the "Moscovite school" by Bomhard.
It has received renewed attention in English-speaking academia since the 1990s.
Some linguists are unsure.
The hypothetical ancestral language of the Nostratic family is called Proto-Nostratic.
It would have been spoken between 15,000 and 12,000 BC, in the Epipalaeolithic period, near the end of the last glacial period.
Seligman () is a census-designated place (CDP) in Yavapai County, Arizona, United States.
The population was 456 at the 2000 census.
It is commonly referred to as the freshman sum, due to it being a common mistake when people learn about the addition of fractions.
The operation is between two fractions, therefore the way these fractions are represented influence the mediant.
For example, the mediant of 1/1 and 1/2 is 2/3, but the mediant of 2/2 and 1/2 is 3/4, even though the sum of both is 3/2.

Eye contact is a form of nonverbal communication.
It is a meaningful sign of social communication, but exactly what it means depends on the situation.
The customs and significance of eye contact vary widely between cultures, with religious and social differences often altering its meaning greatly.
Eye contact and facial expressions give social and emotional information.
People, perhaps without consciously doing so, probe each other's eyes and faces for positive or negative mood signs.
Sometimes, the meeting of eyes arouses strong emotions.
Different societies

So, women lower their eyes, and do not to look directly at a man's face.
Lustful glances at the opposite sex, young or adult, are forbidden.
Another social difference is that of status.

As adults, Japanese lower their eyes when speaking to a superior as a gesture of respect.

A parliamentary republic is a name for a government.
The system is used in many countries.
In a parliamentary system, the legislature is the part of government that makes laws.
The legislature also gives power to the executive (the part of government that enforces laws).
This is the basic form of a parliamentary republic.
The difference is how the legislature gets its power.
The legislature is not chosen by a ruler or by birth.
The peoples choose the legislature in an election.
This means that the executives get their power from the legislature, but the legislature gets its power from the people.
The people choose the legislature.
There are many people in the legislature.
That group then gets together to choose one person to be their leader.
The leader is often part of the legislature.
The name for this job is Prime Minister in most countries.
This person leads the country.
This way, the people are the power behind the parliamentary republic.
They choose the units that make government work.
This is different from other parliamentary systems because the legislature is chosen in a different way.
In other parliamentary systems, members are chosen by the head of state, the local leaders, or by birth.
In a parliamentary republic, the people choose the members.
The people do this through elections.
Sometimes they vote for every person in parliament.
Other times they vote for people in their area.
The politicians they elect go to parliament to make laws and select the head of state.
This gives the people power to decide who is in government.

The Scott affair
In 1961, Norman Scott (b. 12 February 1940), a former model, met Thorpe while working as a stable lad.
He claimed that he and Thorpe had a sexual relationship between 1961 and 1963, when homosexual acts were illegal in Britain.
Enquiries led to Thorpe and three others being charged with conspiracy to murder Scott.
During the investigation, an antique firearms collector, Dennis Meighan, confessed he had been hired by a representative of a person called "a Mr Big in the Liberal Party" to kill Scott for £13,500.
Meighan later claimed that his 1975 oral confession was significantly shortened when it was offered to him for signing: "I read the statement, which did me no end of favours, but it did Jeremy Thorpe no end of favours as well, because it left him completely out of it..."
The judge's summing-up was widely criticised for its bias, and it made headlines when he described Scott as "a crook, an accomplished liar ... a fraud".
The four defendants were all acquitted on 22 June 1979.
Dennis Meighan was never called to give evidence and remained silent until 2014, when he acknowledged his involvement and commented: "It was a cover-up, no question, but it suited me fine".
Thorpe was married to Caroline Allpass from 1968 until she was killed in a car crash in 1970.
The couple's son was born in 1969.
