The ledge tree frog (Bokermannohyla saxicola) is a frog that lives in Brazil. It lives in the Serra do Espinhaço and Serra de Cipó mountains, usually more than 800 meters above sea level. This frog is 5.0 to 5.4 cm long from nose to rear end. These frogs live in montane meadows, grassy places partway up mountains. It lays eggs in rocky streams. This frog only lives below 800 meters above sea level when the streams stay rocky that low. Scientists have seen it as close to sea level as 600 meters, always by rocky streams. The tadpoles take about five months to grow. There are four different groups of ledge tree frogs, each living around the top of a different mountain. Scientists looked at the frog's DNA. They saw it became its own species 6.1 million years ago, during the c. 6.1 million years ago Miocene era. References Frogs Animals of South America

https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voiced%20alveolar%20lateral%20fricative
Voiced alveolar lateral fricative
The voiced alveolar lateral fricative is a type of consonant. Some spoken languages use it. The letter for this sound in the International Phonetic Alphabet is (sometimes called lezh). The X-SAMPA symbol for this sound is K\. The voiced alveolar lateral fricative is not used in English. Features Examples Dental or denti-alveolar Alveolar {| class="wikitable" ! colspan="2" | Language ! Word ! IPA ! Meaning ! Notes |- | colspan="2" | Adyghe | | | 'town' | Can also be pronounced as |- | colspan="2" | Bura | | | | Contrasts with and . |- | colspan="2" | Kabardian | | | 'seven' | Can also be pronounced as |- | colspan="2" | Ket | | | | |- | colspan="2" | Mongolian | | | 'Mongol' | Sometimes realized as |- | colspan="2" | Sassarese | caldhu | | 'hot' | |- | colspan="2" | Tera | {{lang|ttr|dlepti'}} | | 'planting' | |- | colspan="2" | Zulu | | | 'hunger' | |} A pharyngealized voiced alveolar lateral fricative is reconstructed to be the ancient Classical Arabic pronunciation of the Arabic letter . (This means that linguists do not know how the letter was actually pronounced. However, by looking at modern languages, they think that this is how it was pronounced in the ancient language.) Today, the letter is pronounced in Modern Standard Arabic as a pharyngealized voiced coronal stop. This sound can be either alveolar or denti-alveolar . Notation In 1938, a letter shaped similarly to heng was approved as the official IPA letter for this sound. It replaced . However, the International Phonetic Association also suggested that a compromise between the two letters could be used if the author wanted. This compromise letter was included in the 1949 Principles of the International Phonetic Association'' and the IPA charts of that year. Although the International Phonetic Association said to use this letter, some authors still used from the 1960s to the 1980s. Later, this new letter was replaced by at the 1989 Kiel Convention.

Schnellzug
A Schnellzug is an express train in German-speaking countries, where it refers to trains that do not stop at all stations along a line. In Germany and Austria it is also referred to colloquially as a D-Zug, a short form of Durchgangszug ("through train"), and express train services were often given numbers preceded by the letter D. The similar term, snälltåg, was used in Sweden until January 1980. On the railway networks operated by the Deutsche Bahn (DB), the Austrian Federal Railway (ÖBB) and the Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) today, express trains are divided into categories such as Eurocity, Intercity, Interregio etc. The DB still occasionally runs D-Zug services in night trains (D-Nacht), especially those to its eastern European neighbours, and as relief trains. Museum services running on DB routes are also given D-Zug numbers. ÖBB runs D-Züge on main routes from/to Vienna on weekends and during rush hours. Rail transport in Germany
