The sculpture can be viewed at the entrance of the [IUPUI](/wiki/IUPUI \"IUPUI\") Campus Center, at the north\\-west corner of Vermont Street and University Boulevard.\n\nThis sculpture consists of five letters.

Widths are the following for each of the letters represented in the sculpture: \"I\" is 11\\.5 inches, \"U\" is 26\\.125 inches, and the \"P\" is 25 inches. The fabricator of the letters was ASI Modulex of Indianapolis.

The five sculpture pieces have been installed at an angle from one another with several feet between each letter. The sculpture can be viewed as individual letters of the [alphabet](/wiki/Alphabet \"Alphabet\") or together as one large group. The letter enclosures sit perpendicular to the full cabinets, giving each letter a multidimensional appearance.\n\nThe sculptures are constructed from 10 gauge [steel](/wiki/Steel \"Steel\") frames and 16 [gauge](/wiki/Sheet_metal_gauge \"Sheet metal gauge\") stainless steel sheets. The letter\\-forms have been designed using [Impact (typeface)](/wiki/Impact_%28typeface%29 \"Impact (typeface)\") and painted with [Pantone](/wiki/Pantone \"Pantone\") finish color, PMS 201C Red.\n\nThe [stainless steel](/wiki/Stainless_steel \"Stainless steel\") cabinet surrounding of each letter is made from thin gauge stainless steel fascia panels with a non\\-directional brushed finish. These panels provide a \"dimple\" like protective coating and are attached with a hi\\-bond adhesive to the frame structure. The frame structure is a 2\" x 6\" section welded together. The thin gauge painted steel \"letter\nforms\" are welded to the monolithic frame. A steel leveling plate was used to mount each letter into a 46” x 18” x ¼” base plate configuration using gussets, vinyl tape, and [silicone](/wiki/Silicone \"Silicone\"). The leveling plate is attached to a concrete footer.Elkins, Kevin. “Sign Type A Stainless Steel Letter Enclosures.” ASI\\-Modulex, 2007\\. Each of the five of the letters are 7\\.5 feet in height, 3\\.5 feet in length, with the main steel cabinet having a depth of 5\\.875 inches. If all five sculptures were placed side by side the length would total 17\\.5 feet.\n\n", "Information\n-----------\n\n*Untitled (IUPUI Letters)* was designed as part of the signage package to go with the original construction of IUPUI's Campus Center. September 30, 2005 marked the ground breaking for the $50 million Campus Center.

The construction intent document was submitted to the Senior Associate University Architect and Director of IUPUI Project Development in June 2004 and the final bid document was issued in June 2006\\.\n\nThe fabricator of the letters was ASI Modulex of Indianapolis.

As Cabinet Minister of Social Services, he dedicated most of his life to empowering the underprivileged people in Sri Lanka.\n\n", "Early life and death\n--------------------\n\nKarunaratne was born in Rambukkana and was educated at [St. Anthony's College, Kandy](/wiki/St._Anthony%27s_College%2C_Kandy \"St. Anthony's College, Kandy\") and [Nalanda College Colombo](/wiki/Nalanda_College_Colombo \"Nalanda College Colombo\"). He developed a great interest in Sinhala and English literature and was an avid reader. After passing with merits in his Cambridge Senior Exam, World War II erupted, hindering his future plans of attending university in England. Consequently, he took up a career as a landowner before being elected to the Rambukkana town council in 1947\\.\n\nKarunaratne was the younger brother of Mr. [N. H. Keerthiratne](/wiki/N._H._Keerthiratne \"N. H. Keerthiratne\"), who was also a distinguished politician and Cabinet Minister. Both were known for their unique manner of breaking down barriers—by embracing a cooperative way of enriching relationships between individuals and groups.\n\nKarunaratne died in 1988 of a heart attack.\n\n", "Political career\n----------------\n\nAs a founding member, Karunaratne was associated with the [Sri Lanka Freedom Party](/wiki/Sri_Lanka_Freedom_Party \"Sri Lanka Freedom Party\") (SLFP) earlier in his career. He was elected chairman of the [Rambukkana](/wiki/Rambukkana_Divisional_Secretariat \"Rambukkana Divisional Secretariat\") town council in 1953 at the inauguration of that local body. He played a crucial role in Prime Minister [S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike](/wiki/S._W._R._D._Bandaranaike \"S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike\")'s victory in the 1956 General Election by addressing a number of meetings, appealing to his relations and party supporters to rally behind the victory. Karunaratne entered the legislature in 1958 when S. W. R. D. Bandaranaike appointed him to the House of Representatives. He has the unique distinction of being the first Sinhalese to enter parliament as an appointment member, a tribute to the silent but very effective and unrepresented Sinhala opinion and interests at the time. At the general election of March \\& July 1960, he contested the newly demarcated [Rambukkana](/wiki/Rambukkana \"Rambukkana\") seat as the candidate of the SLFP and was elected by a majority of over 6000 votes. He retained the same seat in the subsequent General Election held in July 1960 and was appointed Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Justice by Premier [Sirimavo Bandaranaike](/wiki/Sirimavo_Bandaranaike \"Sirimavo Bandaranaike\").\n\nIn 1963, over a difference of opinion, Karunaratne resigned from the SLFP and joined the [United National Party](/wiki/United_National_Party \"United National Party\") (UNP) and helped [C. P. de Silva](/wiki/C._P._de_Silva \"C. P. de Silva\") initiate the [Sri Lanka Freedom Socialist Party](/wiki/Sri_Lanka_Freedom_Socialist_Party \"Sri Lanka Freedom Socialist Party\"), which was in coalition with the UNP. He was appointed Minister of Social Services in the [Dudley Senanayake](/wiki/Dudley_Senanayake \"Dudley Senanayake\") government. Though he was defeated at the General Election of 1970, he recontested the [Rambukkana](/wiki/Rambukkana \"Rambukkana\") electorate as the candidate of the UNP in July 1977 and was elected by a comfortable majority and reappointed as Minister of Social Services by Prime Minister [J. R. Jayewardene](/wiki/J._R._Jayewardene \"J. R. Jayewardene\").\n\nIn 1982 he led the Sri Lankan delegation to the World Assembly on Aging held in Vienna which was sponsored by the United Nations. Thereafter he made a tour of Denmark, Sweden, Thailand, Singapore, India, and Japan. He strengthened the relations between Sri Lanka and ESCAP, UNICEF, and ICSW and also signed several agreements with foreign organisations and governments beneficial to children, the handicapped, and elders.\n\n", "Contribution to Society\n-----------------------\n\nDuring his stewardship as Minister of Social Services, Karunaratne initiated action to enhance public assistance and introduced rehabilitation programmes for the handicapped. He also steered a bill in parliament to register all voluntary social service organisations in Sri Lanka, as he was convinced of the vital role these organisations had to play in the field of social service.\n\nKarunaratne was known for breaking down barriers of separatism—prejudice, exclusiveness of caste, race, and creed had long been the bane of Sri Lankan society. He maintained focus on extending educational opportunities and the equalisation of opportunity to regenerate the social structure of Sri Lanka.\n\nHe established Asoka Maha Vidyalaya in Rambukkana along with several other schools and orphanages throughout the district. Asoka Karunaratne also built Buddhist temples in Rambukkana.\n\n", "See also\n--------\n\n* [List of political families in Sri Lanka](/wiki/List_of_political_families_in_Sri_Lanka \"List of political families in Sri Lanka\")\n", "References\n----------\n\n* Abeynaike, H.B.W (ed).

They mix alternative metal with non\\-traditional rock instruments, such as auxiliary percussion, and electronic sounds. The band gained popularity on rock radio stations across the US due to their single \"[Eyesore](/wiki/Eyesore_%28song%29 \"Eyesore (song)\"),\" and has toured with bands such as [All That Remains](/wiki/All_That_Remains_%28band%29 \"All That Remains (band)\"), [Breaking Benjamin](/wiki/Breaking_Benjamin \"Breaking Benjamin\"), [Chevelle](/wiki/Chevelle_%28band%29 \"Chevelle (band)\"), [Sevendust](/wiki/Sevendust \"Sevendust\"), and [Sick Puppies](/wiki/Sick_Puppies \"Sick Puppies\").

In 2006 Janus released a 5 track demo that contained songs they would later re\\-record and feature on their 2008 release *Red Right Return*. 5 songs were recorded for this demo: \"If I Were You\", \"Your Arms\", \"The Nerve\", \"Skin Deep\", and \"100 Years\". In 2007, director Noah Shulman shot a music video for their demo version of \"If I Were You\" in an ink factory in Chicago, Illinois in support of their third upcoming album, *Red Right Return*, which was released in 2008 through Level It Records/Glass Bottom Boat Music.\n\nJohnny Salazar, previously of the bands \"Shades of Fiction\" and \"Relative Ash\", joined as the new drummer in 2007\\.

Signed to a new label (REALID/ILG Records), Janus re\\-released *Red Right Return* in 2009, and shot another music video with Noah Shulman for their single \"Eyesore.\"\n\nThe band's fourth album, *[Nox Aeris](/wiki/Nox_Aeris \"Nox Aeris\")*, was released on March 27, 2012\\. The first single is \"Stains.\"\n\nAccording to a Tweet by band member Mike Tyranski in October 2016, the band is no longer together.

One of [Architectural Digest](/wiki/Architectural_Digest \"Architectural Digest\")'s \"20 Greatest Designers of All Time” and \"Interior Design Legends\". Taylor was noted for his rooms of airiness and light with a prominent use of natural forms and the color white.Clarke, Gerald (January, 2010\\). \"The World's 20 Greatest Designers of All Time\". *Architectural Digest: The International Magazine of Design*, p. 99\\.Trocme, Suzanne (January, 2000\\). \"Michael Taylor. His Brilliant Use of Scale and Light Announced the California Look.\" *Architectural Digest: The International Magazine of Design*, p. 228\\. In 1956, he founded his design company, Michael Taylor Interiors, Inc. Under Michael Taylor Designs, he manufactured his own designs and in 1985 partnered with Paul Weaver to develop and market interior and exterior furnishings to the wholesale design trade. Taylor worked continuously until his death in 1986\\.\n\n", "Early life\n----------\n\n### Childhood\n\nBorn in Modesto, California in 1927, Michael Taylor moved with his family to the northern California town of Santa Rosa in 1933\\. There, his childhood was greatly influenced by his maternal grandmother who imparted on him an affinity for natural forms by taking him on daily hikes. It was here that the seeds of Taylor’s design philosophy were first planted, with his interest in the arts shining through even at a young age. Where other young boys collected baseball cards, the young Taylor collected bits of porcelain. However, despite an obvious penchant for aesthetics, his parents wished him to become a doctor. A dream they held onto for years and that he nearly lived out.Salny, Stephen M. (2008\\). *Michael Taylor: Interior Design.* New York: W.W. Norton \\& Co. \n\n### Formative years\n\nIn 1944, Taylor dropped out of High School, where he played football and was active in theater, to join the U.S. Navy. He served as a Navy paramedic until he was discharged in 1946\\.Green, Lois Wagner (17 July 1983\\). \"California's Golden Boy of Design\". *California Living*. Ed. The San Francisco Examiner. p. 10\\-12, 15\\. That experience, however, soured Taylor on the idea of becoming a doctor. Instead, he moved to San Francisco where, in 1947, he enrolled at the [Rudolf Schaeffer School of Design](/wiki/Rudolph_Schaeffer_School_of_Design \"Rudolph Schaeffer School of Design\"). It was there that Taylor learned what he called \"the secrets of color.\" Over time, he became very close to Mr. Schaeffer, who referred to him as “his dear Michael,” and who set him up as a partner in a fledgling design company with Frances Mihailoff, a prominent designer in San Francisco at the time. A mere four years after entering the Rudolf Schaeffer School of Design, Michael Taylor was already a partner in an interior design business at the age of 25\\. Their partnership was so fruitful that they both decided they could make it on their own. In 1956, Michael Taylor began his own interior design company.\n\n", "### Childhood\n\nBorn in Modesto, California in 1927, Michael Taylor moved with his family to the northern California town of Santa Rosa in 1933\\. There, his childhood was greatly influenced by his maternal grandmother who imparted on him an affinity for natural forms by taking him on daily hikes. It was here that the seeds of Taylor’s design philosophy were first planted, with his interest in the arts shining through even at a young age. Where other young boys collected baseball cards, the young Taylor collected bits of porcelain. However, despite an obvious penchant for aesthetics, his parents wished him to become a doctor. A dream they held onto for years and that he nearly lived out.Salny, Stephen M. (2008\\). *Michael Taylor: Interior Design.* New York: W.W. Norton \\& Co. \n\n", "### Formative years\n\nIn 1944, Taylor dropped out of High School, where he played football and was active in theater, to join the U.S. Navy. He served as a Navy paramedic until he was discharged in 1946\\.Green, Lois Wagner (17 July 1983\\). \"California's Golden Boy of Design\". *California Living*. Ed. The San Francisco Examiner. p. 10\\-12, 15\\. That experience, however, soured Taylor on the idea of becoming a doctor. Instead, he moved to San Francisco where, in 1947, he enrolled at the [Rudolf Schaeffer School of Design](/wiki/Rudolph_Schaeffer_School_of_Design \"Rudolph Schaeffer School of Design\"). It was there that Taylor learned what he called \"the secrets of color.\" Over time, he became very close to Mr. Schaeffer, who referred to him as “his dear Michael,” and who set him up as a partner in a fledgling design company with Frances Mihailoff, a prominent designer in San Francisco at the time. A mere four years after entering the Rudolf Schaeffer School of Design, Michael Taylor was already a partner in an interior design business at the age of 25\\. Their partnership was so fruitful that they both decided they could make it on their own. In 1956, Michael Taylor began his own interior design company.\n\n", "Career\n------\n\n### Michael Taylor Interiors\n\nAfter dissolving his partnership with Frances Mihailoff, Taylor set up Michael Taylor Interiors, Inc. on Sutter Street in San Francisco in 1956\\. Working for prominent San Francisco families, Taylor's reputation grew quickly. What was, at first, a clientele of San Francisco Bay Area socialites soon expanded to Los Angeles, Miami and New York. International acclaim followed and Taylor soon started working abroad as well.\n\n### Michael Taylor Designs Inc.\n\nIn 1985 Paul Weaver, former Director of Marketing and VP of McGuire Furniture, approached Taylor with a plan to develop and expand the nascent Michael Taylor Designs product line offered by Taylor's interiors company into a new entity. Michael Taylor Designs Inc. was officially incorporated on August 5, 1985\\. After Taylor's death in 1986 Weaver assumed full control and over the subsequent 24 years greatly expanded the product lines, established nationwide sales showrooms and developed the Taylor brand into one of the most recognized luxury products in the home furnishing industry.\n\n### Design Philosophy\n\nTaylor's distinct \"California Look\" begins as an amalgamation of different styles, mixed with his own unique twists and has been called \"a posthumous collaboration with some of the great decorators of the past.\"Hampton, Mark (1992\\). *Legendary Decorators of the Twentieth Century.* New York: Doubleday. p.283 \\- 293\\. Starting with [Syrie Maugham](/wiki/Syrie_Maugham \"Syrie Maugham\")'s emphasis on shades of white, adding in the ornateness of [Sister Parish](/wiki/Sister_Parish \"Sister Parish\") and the simple exquisiteness of [Frances Elkins](/wiki/Frances_Elkins \"Frances Elkins\")' design; Taylor would then infuse his own style. A look born in the past yet completely new.Taylor, Michael (1964\\). \"A New Look at Decorating\". In Katharine Tweed (Ed.), *The Finest Rooms by America's Great Decorators*, pp. 157 \\- 168\\. New York: The Viking Press. \n\nImplicit in that design philosophy was a melding of styles and ages. A set of antique Italian chairs beside a [Roy Lichtenstein](/wiki/Roy_Lichtenstein \"Roy Lichtenstein\") print; Chinese chairs set around an unvarnished wood table atop a Yosemite granite base. He stated, \"there is no arbitrary law which says that an eighteenth\\-century French chair and a Sheridan can't be used in the same room. The only consideration is how well these or other pieces look together; do they compete with each other or do they create a felicitous sense of contrast?\" And while this fusion seems commonplace now, it was largely unheard of before Michael Taylor.\n\nAn important piece of the Taylor design aesthetic was to bring the outdoors in, adding natural forms into ornate rooms. Plants were a must and he'd often use large, unshaped boulders indoors. His childhood in northern California, spending much time outdoors, fed his desire for nature infused rooms. But this also served a practical design purpose, as he said, \"Plants have a way of preventing a room from appearing overdecorated; they also soften light.\" And the effect of light on a room drove many of his design decisions.\n\nAlthough noted for his extensive use of the color white, Taylor didn't use white as the centerpiece for the room but rather to bring out the lighting and other aspects in the room. Michael Taylor White, his own hue (warmer than plain white), worked to promote the other colors, a source of light and/or a piece of art. White also served to bring light into the room, making it warmer. Taylor would often spend an entire day in a room before designing it. Watching the way the light worked through the room at different points of the day. Only then, when he had a grasp of the light patterns, would he begin to design.\n\nSimplicity was vital to Taylor's style. His famous saying, \"When in doubt, throw it out,\" was a design mantra of sorts. As he stated, \"If (a room) is properly put together, it is often more refreshing to have a wall with nothing hanging on it.\" However, with a simplified design palette the room risked becoming too sparse and this is where Taylor says his use of scale came into play, \"When you take things out, you must increase the size of what's left.\" And so Taylor's famed voluminous sofas and chairs came about.\n\nFinally, and perhaps most radically, Taylor insisted that a room never look perfectly finished.

Despite passing away more than two decades ago, Taylor has been repeatedly featured in *Architectural Digest,* most recently in the January 2010 issue. The February 2010 issue of *San Francisco* magazine's cover feature on up and coming interior designers declared Taylor \"the emperor of California Design,\" and something of a fountainhead for the movement.Saeks, Diane Dorrans (February 2010\\). \"Out of the Shadows\". *San Francisco.* p. 63\\. The next month the *San Francisco Chronicle* referred to his design of [Fleur de Lys](/wiki/Fleur_de_Lys_%28restaurant%29 \"Fleur de Lys (restaurant)\") restaurant as the \"most romantic\" in [San Francisco](/wiki/San_Francisco%2C_California \"San Francisco, California\").\n\nFamed designer, and one of *Architectural Digest'*s \"AD100\" (their list of the 100 top international architects and interior designers), [Suzanne Tucker](/wiki/Suzanne_Tucker \"Suzanne Tucker\") was Taylor's protégé.

He led the party in the 2001 and 2005 general elections, increasing its number of seats in the House of Commons to their highest level since 1923, led his party's [opposition to the Iraq War](/wiki/Opposition_to_the_Iraq_War \"Opposition to the Iraq War\"), and broadly positioned the party to the left of [New Labour](/wiki/New_Labour \"New Labour\"). A charismatic and affable speaker in public, he appeared extensively on television during his leadership.\n\nDuring the latter stages of Kennedy's leadership, there was concern about both his leadership and his health. From December 2005, some within the party were openly questioning his position and calling for a leadership election. On 5 January 2006, he was informed that [ITN](/wiki/ITN \"ITN\") would be reporting that he had received treatment for [alcoholism](/wiki/Alcoholism \"Alcoholism\"); he pre\\-empted the broadcast by admitting that he had had treatment, and resigned as leader the following day after receiving no support within the parliamentary party. After [Menzies Campbell](/wiki/Menzies_Campbell \"Menzies Campbell\") succeeded him as leader, Kennedy remained in office as a backbench MP, where he voted against the formation of the [Cameron–Clegg coalition](/wiki/Cameron%E2%80%93Clegg_coalition \"Cameron–Clegg coalition\"). He died less than a month after losing his seat in the House of Commons in 2015\\.\n\n", "Early life\n----------\n\n[thumb\\|left\\|200px\\|[Fort William, Scotland](/wiki/Fort_William%2C_Scotland \"Fort William, Scotland\")](/wiki/File:High_Street_Fort_William_-_geograph.org.uk_-_943438.jpg \"High Street Fort William - geograph.org.uk - 943438.jpg\")\nKennedy was born on 25 November 1959 in the [Scottish Highlands](/wiki/Scottish_Highlands \"Scottish Highlands\") town of [Inverness](/wiki/Inverness \"Inverness\"), the son of Mary and Ian Kennedy, and grew up in a remote [crofter](/wiki/Crofter \"Crofter\")'s cottage in the Highlands. He had a [Roman Catholic](/wiki/Roman_Catholic \"Roman Catholic\") upbringing, and was educated at [Lochaber High School](/wiki/Lochaber_High_School \"Lochaber High School\") in [Fort William](/wiki/Fort_William%2C_Scotland \"Fort William, Scotland\"). He went on to study for a [Master of Arts](/wiki/Master_of_Arts_%28Scotland%29 \"Master of Arts (Scotland)\") degree in Politics and Philosophy at the [University of Glasgow](/wiki/University_of_Glasgow \"University of Glasgow\"). Kennedy first became politically active at university, where he joined the SDP as well as the [Dialectic Society](/wiki/Glasgow_University_Dialectic_Society \"Glasgow University Dialectic Society\"). Between 1980 and 1981, Kennedy was President of the [Glasgow University Union](/wiki/Glasgow_University_Union \"Glasgow University Union\"). He won the [Observer Mace](/wiki/Observer_Mace \"Observer Mace\") debating competition in 1982, speaking with Clark McGinn.\n\nUpon graduation in 1982, Kennedy went to work for [BBC Scotland](/wiki/BBC_Scotland \"BBC Scotland\") as a journalist. He later received a [Fulbright Fellowship](/wiki/Fulbright_Fellowship \"Fulbright Fellowship\") which allowed him to carry out research at [Indiana University](/wiki/Indiana_University_Bloomington \"Indiana University Bloomington\") in the United States.\n\n", "Early political career\n----------------------\n\nAt the age of 15 he joined the [Labour Party](/wiki/Labour_Party_%28UK%29 \"Labour Party (UK)\"), followed in 1981 by the newly formed [Social Democratic Party](/wiki/Social_Democratic_Party_%28UK%29 \"Social Democratic Party (UK)\") (SDP). Two years later, Kennedy received the SDP nomination to stand for the Scottish seat of [Ross, Cromarty and Skye](/wiki/Ross%2C_Cromarty_and_Skye \"Ross, Cromarty and Skye\")—then held by the [Conservative](/wiki/Conservative_Party_%28UK%29 \"Conservative Party (UK)\") [Hamish Gray](/wiki/Hamish_Gray \"Hamish Gray\")—at the [1983 general election](/wiki/1983_United_Kingdom_general_election \"1983 United Kingdom general election\"). Kennedy won the seat with 13,528 votes (38\\.5%) and a majority of 1,704, unseating the incumbent Gray. He was, at the age of 23, the [youngest sitting Member of Parliament](/wiki/Baby_of_the_House \"Baby of the House\") at the time he was elected to the House of Commons. He served on the Social Services [select committee](/wiki/Select_committee_%28United_Kingdom%29 \"Select committee (United Kingdom)\") from 1985 to 1987, retained his seat at the [1987 general election](/wiki/1987_United_Kingdom_general_election \"1987 United Kingdom general election\"), and served on the Televising of Proceedings of the House select committee from 1987 to 1989\\.\n\nHe was the first of the five SDP MPs to support its merger with the [Liberal Party](/wiki/Liberal_Party_%28UK%29 \"Liberal Party (UK)\") (with which the SDP was co\\-operating in the [SDP–Liberal Alliance](/wiki/SDP%E2%80%93Liberal_Alliance \"SDP–Liberal Alliance\")) because of pressure from Liberal activists in his constituency. The parties merged in 1988, forming the Social and Liberal Democratic Party, later renamed the Liberal Democrats; Kennedy was a proponent of the merge.\n\nKennedy moved into frontbench politics in 1989, becoming the party's spokesperson for health. After retaining his seat in the [1992 general election](/wiki/1992_United_Kingdom_general_election \"1992 United Kingdom general election\") he served as the spokesperson for foreign and Commonwealth affairs during the 1992–97 parliament. He retained his seat in the [1997 general election](/wiki/1997_United_Kingdom_general_election \"1997 United Kingdom general election\") and served on the Standards and Privileges select committee from 1997 to 1999\\.\n\nHe was [president of the Liberal Democrats](/wiki/President_of_the_Liberal_Democrats \"President of the Liberal Democrats\") from 1990 to 1994, and Liberal Democrat spokesperson for the office of the Leader of the House of Commons from 1997 to 1999\\.\n\n", "Leader of the Liberal Democrats\n-------------------------------\n\nKennedy was elected leader of the Liberal Democrats on 9 August 1999, following the retirement of [Paddy Ashdown](/wiki/Paddy_Ashdown \"Paddy Ashdown\"). He won 57% of the transferred vote under the [alternative vote](/wiki/Alternative_vote \"Alternative vote\") system, beating the runner\\-up [Simon Hughes](/wiki/Simon_Hughes \"Simon Hughes\") (43% of the transferred vote), [Malcolm Bruce](/wiki/Malcolm_Bruce \"Malcolm Bruce\"), [Jackie Ballard](/wiki/Jackie_Ballard \"Jackie Ballard\") and [David Rendel](/wiki/David_Rendel \"David Rendel\"). In October of the same year, he was sworn in as a Member of the [Privy Council](/wiki/Privy_Council_%28United_Kingdom%29 \"Privy Council (United Kingdom)\").\n\nKennedy's style of leadership was regarded as \"conversational and companionable\". He was labelled \"Chatshow Charlie\" by some observers as a result of his appearances on the [satirical](/wiki/Satirical \"Satirical\") [panel game](/wiki/Panel_game \"Panel game\") *[Have I Got News for You](/wiki/Have_I_Got_News_for_You \"Have I Got News for You\")*.\n\nIn Kennedy's first campaign as leader, the [2001 general election](/wiki/2001_United_Kingdom_general_election \"2001 United Kingdom general election\"), the Liberal Democrats won 52 seats with an 18\\.3% share of the vote; this was a 1\\.5% improvement in vote share (and an improvement of six seats) over the [1997 election](/wiki/1997_United_Kingdom_general_election \"1997 United Kingdom general election\"), but smaller than the 25\\.4% vote share the SDP/Liberal Alliance had achieved in 1983, which won it 23 seats. Kennedy led his party's opposition to the [Iraq War](/wiki/Iraq_War \"Iraq War\"), with all Liberal Democrats voting against or abstaining in the [vote for the invasion of Iraq](/wiki/British_parliamentary_approval_for_the_invasion_of_Iraq \"British parliamentary approval for the invasion of Iraq\")—the largest British party to do so.\n\n### Health concerns\n\nIn July 2002, [Jeremy Paxman](/wiki/Jeremy_Paxman \"Jeremy Paxman\") publicly apologised after asking Kennedy about his drinking in a television interview. Reports emerged of Kennedy's ill\\-health in 2003 at the time of crucial debates on the Iraq War and following the 2004 Budget, along with linked rumours of a drinking problem, which were strenuously denied at the time by both Kennedy and his party. *[The Times](/wiki/The_Times \"The Times\")* published an apology over a report it had made stating Kennedy had not taken part in that year's Budget debate because of excessive drinking.\n\nIn April 2005, the launch of his party's manifesto for the [2005 general election](/wiki/2005_United_Kingdom_general_election \"2005 United Kingdom general election\") was delayed because of the birth of his first child, with [Menzies Campbell](/wiki/Menzies_Campbell \"Menzies Campbell\") taking temporary charge as acting leader and covering Kennedy's campaign duties. At the manifesto launch, on his first day back on the campaign trail after the birth, Kennedy struggled to remember the details of a key policy (replacing the [Council Tax](/wiki/Council_Tax \"Council Tax\") with a local [income tax](/wiki/Income_tax \"Income tax\")) at an early morning press conference, which he later blamed on a lack of sleep due to his new child.\n\n### 2005 general election\n\n[right\\|thumb\\|250px\\|Kennedy during the [2005 election](/wiki/2005_United_Kingdom_general_election \"2005 United Kingdom general election\") campaignIn](/wiki/File:Charles_Peter_Kennedy.jpg \"Charles Peter Kennedy.jpg\") his last general election as leader, in May 2005, he extended his strategy from the 2001 election of targeting the seats held by the most senior and/or highly regarded Conservative MPs, dubbed a \"decapitation\" strategy. The Liberal Democrats also hoped to capture marginal [Labour](/wiki/Labour_Party_%28UK%29 \"Labour Party (UK)\") seats, attracting (particularly [Muslim](/wiki/Islam_in_the_United_Kingdom \"Islam in the United Kingdom\")) Labour voters who were dissatisfied because of the [invasion of Iraq](/wiki/2003_invasion_of_Iraq \"2003 invasion of Iraq\"), which Kennedy's party had opposed.\n\nJust before the election, it had been anticipated by the media and opinion polls that the Liberal Democrats could win up to 100 seats and place themselves close to the Conservatives in terms of seats as well as votes. They won 62 seats and 22\\.1% of the vote, at the time their greatest number of seats since their Liberal Party predecessor won 158 seats in [1923](/wiki/1923_United_Kingdom_general_election \"1923 United Kingdom general election\").\n\nThe Liberal Democrats made a net loss of five seats to the Conservatives, only managing to win three seats from them. While they were able to unseat [Shadow Education Secretary](/wiki/Shadow_Education_Secretary \"Shadow Education Secretary\") [Tim Collins](/wiki/Tim_Collins_%28politician%29 \"Tim Collins (politician)\"), they failed to unseat leading Conservatives such as the [Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer](/wiki/Shadow_Chancellor_of_the_Exchequer \"Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer\") [Oliver Letwin](/wiki/Oliver_Letwin \"Oliver Letwin\"), [Shadow Home Secretary](/wiki/Shadow_Home_Secretary \"Shadow Home Secretary\") [David Davis](/wiki/David_Davis_%28British_politician%29 \"David Davis (British politician)\"), [Shadow Secretary of State for the Family](/wiki/Shadow_Secretary_of_State_for_the_Family \"Shadow Secretary of State for the Family\") (later [Prime Minister of the United Kingdom](/wiki/Prime_Minister_of_the_United_Kingdom \"Prime Minister of the United Kingdom\")) [Theresa May](/wiki/Theresa_May \"Theresa May\") and the [Leader of the Opposition](/wiki/Leader_of_the_Opposition_%28United_Kingdom%29 \"Leader of the Opposition (United Kingdom)\") [Michael Howard](/wiki/Michael_Howard \"Michael Howard\"). The \"decapitation\" strategy was widely seen to have failed. They won twelve seats from Labour, but lost Leicester South. They succeeded in regaining the seat of [Ceredigion](/wiki/Ceredigion_%28UK_Parliament_constituency%29 \"Ceredigion (UK Parliament constituency)\"), their first gain from the Welsh party [Plaid Cymru](/wiki/Plaid_Cymru \"Plaid Cymru\").\n\nKennedy heralded the Liberal Democrats, who now had a total of 62 seats, as the \"national party of the future\", but in the wake of the general election, Kennedy's leadership came under increased criticism from those who felt that the Liberal Democrats could have surged forward, with the official opposition Conservative Party having been relatively weak. \n\n### Leadership concerns\n\nFollowing the election of [David Cameron](/wiki/David_Cameron \"David Cameron\") as Leader of the Conservative Party in December 2005, it was widely reported that senior members of the Liberal Democrats had told Kennedy that he must either \"raise his game\" or resign. Speculation surrounding the leadership of the Liberal Democrats was widespread in late 2005, with the journalist [Andrew Neil](/wiki/Andrew_Neil \"Andrew Neil\") claiming to speak \"on good authority\" that Kennedy would announce his resignation at the 2006 spring conference of the Liberal Democrats. Kennedy's spokeswoman denied the report and complained against the BBC, which had broadcast it.\n\nA \"Kennedy Must Go\" petition was started by *[The Liberal](/wiki/The_Liberal \"The Liberal\")* magazine (a publication with no affiliation to the Liberal Democrats); this allegedly had been signed by over 3,300 party members including 386 local councillors and two MPs by the end of 2005\\. A [round\\-robin](/wiki/Round-robin_%28document%29 \"Round-robin (document)\") letter signed by Liberal Democrat MPs rejecting his leadership received 23 signatures.\n\n### Resignation\n\n[thumb\\|250px\\|Kennedy in October 2007\\.](/wiki/File:Charles_Kennedy%2C_October_2007.jpg \"Charles Kennedy, October 2007.jpg\")\nOn 6 January 2006, Kennedy was informed that [ITN](/wiki/ITN \"ITN\") would be reporting that he had received treatment for a drinking problem. He decided to pre\\-empt the broadcast, called a sudden news conference, and made a personal statement that over the past eighteen months he had been coming to terms with a drinking problem, but had sought professional help. He told reporters that recent questions among his colleagues about his suitability as leader were partly as a result of the drinking problem but stated that he had been dry for the past two months and would be calling a leadership contest, in which he would stand, to resolve the issues surrounding his authority once and for all.

His leadership had lasted slightly less than six years and five months.\n\n", "### Health concerns\n\nIn July 2002, [Jeremy Paxman](/wiki/Jeremy_Paxman \"Jeremy Paxman\") publicly apologised after asking Kennedy about his drinking in a television interview. Reports emerged of Kennedy's ill\\-health in 2003 at the time of crucial debates on the Iraq War and following the 2004 Budget, along with linked rumours of a drinking problem, which were strenuously denied at the time by both Kennedy and his party. *[The Times](/wiki/The_Times \"The Times\")* published an apology over a report it had made stating Kennedy had not taken part in that year's Budget debate because of excessive drinking.\n\nIn April 2005, the launch of his party's manifesto for the [2005 general election](/wiki/2005_United_Kingdom_general_election \"2005 United Kingdom general election\") was delayed because of the birth of his first child, with [Menzies Campbell](/wiki/Menzies_Campbell \"Menzies Campbell\") taking temporary charge as acting leader and covering Kennedy's campaign duties. At the manifesto launch, on his first day back on the campaign trail after the birth, Kennedy struggled to remember the details of a key policy (replacing the [Council Tax](/wiki/Council_Tax \"Council Tax\") with a local [income tax](/wiki/Income_tax \"Income tax\")) at an early morning press conference, which he later blamed on a lack of sleep due to his new child.\n\n", "### 2005 general election\n\n[right\\|thumb\\|250px\\|Kennedy during the [2005 election](/wiki/2005_United_Kingdom_general_election \"2005 United Kingdom general election\") campaignIn](/wiki/File:Charles_Peter_Kennedy.jpg \"Charles Peter Kennedy.jpg\") his last general election as leader, in May 2005, he extended his strategy from the 2001 election of targeting the seats held by the most senior and/or highly regarded Conservative MPs, dubbed a \"decapitation\" strategy. The Liberal Democrats also hoped to capture marginal [Labour](/wiki/Labour_Party_%28UK%29 \"Labour Party (UK)\") seats, attracting (particularly [Muslim](/wiki/Islam_in_the_United_Kingdom \"Islam in the United Kingdom\")) Labour voters who were dissatisfied because of the [invasion of Iraq](/wiki/2003_invasion_of_Iraq \"2003 invasion of Iraq\"), which Kennedy's party had opposed.\n\nJust before the election, it had been anticipated by the media and opinion polls that the Liberal Democrats could win up to 100 seats and place themselves close to the Conservatives in terms of seats as well as votes. They won 62 seats and 22\\.1% of the vote, at the time their greatest number of seats since their Liberal Party predecessor won 158 seats in [1923](/wiki/1923_United_Kingdom_general_election \"1923 United Kingdom general election\").\n\nThe Liberal Democrats made a net loss of five seats to the Conservatives, only managing to win three seats from them. While they were able to unseat [Shadow Education Secretary](/wiki/Shadow_Education_Secretary \"Shadow Education Secretary\") [Tim Collins](/wiki/Tim_Collins_%28politician%29 \"Tim Collins (politician)\"), they failed to unseat leading Conservatives such as the [Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer](/wiki/Shadow_Chancellor_of_the_Exchequer \"Shadow Chancellor of the Exchequer\") [Oliver Letwin](/wiki/Oliver_Letwin \"Oliver Letwin\"), [Shadow Home Secretary](/wiki/Shadow_Home_Secretary \"Shadow Home Secretary\") [David Davis](/wiki/David_Davis_%28British_politician%29 \"David Davis (British politician)\"), [Shadow Secretary of State for the Family](/wiki/Shadow_Secretary_of_State_for_the_Family \"Shadow Secretary of State for the Family\") (later [Prime Minister of the United Kingdom](/wiki/Prime_Minister_of_the_United_Kingdom \"Prime Minister of the United Kingdom\")) [Theresa May](/wiki/Theresa_May \"Theresa May\") and the [Leader of the Opposition](/wiki/Leader_of_the_Opposition_%28United_Kingdom%29 \"Leader of the Opposition (United Kingdom)\") [Michael Howard](/wiki/Michael_Howard \"Michael Howard\"). The \"decapitation\" strategy was widely seen to have failed. They won twelve seats from Labour, but lost Leicester South. They succeeded in regaining the seat of [Ceredigion](/wiki/Ceredigion_%28UK_Parliament_constituency%29 \"Ceredigion (UK Parliament constituency)\"), their first gain from the Welsh party [Plaid Cymru](/wiki/Plaid_Cymru \"Plaid Cymru\").\n\nKennedy heralded the Liberal Democrats, who now had a total of 62 seats, as the \"national party of the future\", but in the wake of the general election, Kennedy's leadership came under increased criticism from those who felt that the Liberal Democrats could have surged forward, with the official opposition Conservative Party having been relatively weak. \n\n", "### Leadership concerns\n\nFollowing the election of [David Cameron](/wiki/David_Cameron \"David Cameron\") as Leader of the Conservative Party in December 2005, it was widely reported that senior members of the Liberal Democrats had told Kennedy that he must either \"raise his game\" or resign. Speculation surrounding the leadership of the Liberal Democrats was widespread in late 2005, with the journalist [Andrew Neil](/wiki/Andrew_Neil \"Andrew Neil\") claiming to speak \"on good authority\" that Kennedy would announce his resignation at the 2006 spring conference of the Liberal Democrats. Kennedy's spokeswoman denied the report and complained against the BBC, which had broadcast it.\n\nA \"Kennedy Must Go\" petition was started by *[The Liberal](/wiki/The_Liberal \"The Liberal\")* magazine (a publication with no affiliation to the Liberal Democrats); this allegedly had been signed by over 3,300 party members including 386 local councillors and two MPs by the end of 2005\\.

He decided to pre\\-empt the broadcast, called a sudden news conference, and made a personal statement that over the past eighteen months he had been coming to terms with a drinking problem, but had sought professional help. He told reporters that recent questions among his colleagues about his suitability as leader were partly as a result of the drinking problem but stated that he had been dry for the past two months and would be calling a leadership contest, in which he would stand, to resolve the issues surrounding his authority once and for all.

He was best known as a prolific novelist, but he was also a biographer, playwright, screenplay writer, and writer of children's books.\n\n", "Life and work\n-------------\n\nGotta was born on the 18 May 1887 in [Montalto Dora](/wiki/Montalto_Dora \"Montalto Dora\"), [Piedmont](/wiki/Piedmont \"Piedmont\"), Italy. He graduated from the [University of Turin](/wiki/University_of_Turin \"University of Turin\"), and his literary career started with the publication of *Pia* in 1912\\. Other novels followed, and in 1917 he started on the trilogy *La saga dei Vela*, which was to become his best known work. During the [first world war](/wiki/World_War_I \"World War I\") he served in the [Alpini](/wiki/Alpini \"Alpini\") Corps, and from this experience in 1926 he wrote the children's novel *Il piccolo Alpino* (*The little [Alpino](/wiki/Alpini \"Alpini\")*), which was very successful and inspired the 1986 Italian TV mini\\-series *[Mino](/wiki/Mino_%28miniseries%29 \"Mino (miniseries)\")*.\n\nGotta joined the [Fascist party](/wiki/National_Fascist_Party \"National Fascist Party\") at an early stage, and in 1925 he wrote the words of the official Fascist anthem [Giovinezza](/wiki/Giovinezza \"Giovinezza\") (\"Youth\"). He praised the fascists in several of his works, such as *Mistica Patria* (Mystic Country), of 1932\\.\n\nHe wrote film screenplays and stage plays, such as *Mille lire* (1923\\) and *La damigella di Bard* (1936\\). He continued to write novels after the second world war, but his works from this period are now little remembered, and many of his works were allowed to go out of print because of his Fascist associations. However, he had some popularity among teenagers in the 1960s and 1970s for his historical novels and a column he wrote in the magazine *[Topolino](/wiki/Topolino \"Topolino\")*.\n\nGotta was influenced by the realists, and by [Antonio Fogazzaro](/wiki/Antonio_Fogazzaro \"Antonio Fogazzaro\"). Gotta and Fogazzaro were both published by *Baldini \\& Castoldi*.\n\nGotta wrote his autobiography, *L'almanacco di Gotta* (\"Gotta's Almanac\"). He died on the 7 June 1980 at [Rapallo](/wiki/Rapallo \"Rapallo\") in the [province of Genoa](/wiki/Province_of_Genoa \"Province of Genoa\"), [Liguria](/wiki/Liguria \"Liguria\"), Italy.\n\n", "Selected filmography\n--------------------\n\n* *[Cavalry](/wiki/Cavalry_%281936_Italian_film%29 \"Cavalry (1936 Italian film)\")* (1936\\)\n* *[Goodbye Youth](/wiki/Goodbye_Youth_%281940_film%29 \"Goodbye Youth (1940 film)\")* (1940\\)\n", "References\n----------\n\n", "External links\n--------------\n\n[Category:1887 births](/wiki/Category:1887_births \"1887 births\")\n[Category:1980 deaths](/wiki/Category:1980_deaths \"1980 deaths\")\n[Category:Italian children's writers](/wiki/Category:Italian_children%27s_writers \"Italian children's writers\")\n[Category:Italian biographers](/wiki/Category:Italian_biographers \"Italian biographers\")\n[Category:Male biographers](/wiki/Category:Male_biographers \"Male biographers\")\n[Category:Italian male non\\-fiction writers](/wiki/Category:Italian_male_non-fiction_writers \"Italian male non-fiction writers\")\n\n" ] }

That November, he was appointed the first [Sheriff](/wiki/Sheriff \"Sheriff\") of [County Mayo](/wiki/County_Mayo \"County Mayo\"). He settled at The Neale, [Ballinrobe](/wiki/Ballinrobe \"Ballinrobe\"), on lands thought to have been acquired from the Mac Meyler Bourkes. In the summer of 1584, he prepared a map of Mayo, leaving out the barony of [Costello](/wiki/Barony_of_Costello \"Barony of Costello\") and parts of Gallen and Clanmorris. This map was created at the request of Sir [Richard Bingham](/wiki/Richard_Bingham_%28soldier%29 \"Richard Bingham (soldier)\"), and was sent to Walsingham. He was again appointed Sheriff in 1587\\.\n\nOther maps by Browne included one of Connacht, which was completed by his nephew, John, in 1591, and one of parts of [County Monaghan](/wiki/County_Monaghan \"County Monaghan\").\n\nBrowne and his sub\\-Sheriff, Donnel O'Daly, were killed in an encounter with [Risdeard mac Deamhain](/wiki/Richard_%22the_Devils_Hook%22_Bourke \"Richard \") and Chorrain and Walter na mBuilleadh Burke at [Burrishoole](/wiki/Burrishoole \"Burrishoole\") in February 1589 at the start of a major rebellion.\n\nJohn Browne married Ann, daughter of Thomas Kardyff of Dunsink, [County Dublin](/wiki/County_Dublin \"County Dublin\").

In order to communicate with each other, speakers of different Slavic languages often resort to international [lingua francas](/wiki/Lingua_franca \"Lingua franca\"), primarily [English](/wiki/English_language \"English language\") or [Russian](/wiki/Russian_language \"Russian language\"). But since Slavic languages are closely related lexically and grammatically and are comparatively easier to learn when another Slavic language is already known, there have been numerous attempts to construct a more neutral auxiliary language that could act as a common language for [slavophones](/wiki/Slavophone \"Slavophone\"). The earliest pan\\-Slavic linguistic efforts preceded academic knowledge and reconstruction of [Proto\\-Slavic](/wiki/Proto-Slavic \"Proto-Slavic\"), which was likely spoken between 2nd century BCE and 6th century CE, from which all Slavic languages developed in following centuries.\n\n", "History\n-------\n\n[thumb\\|Cyrillic edition of *Gramatíčno izkâzanje ob rúskom jezíku* (1665\\) by [Križanić](/wiki/Juraj_Kri%C5%BEani%C4%87 \"Juraj Križanić\"), the first pan\\-Slavic grammar book](/wiki/File:Kri%C5%BEani%C4%87_-_Gramati%C4%8Dno_izkazanje_ob_ruskom_jeziku.png \"Križanić - Gramatično izkazanje ob ruskom jeziku.png\")\nThe history of zonal Slavic languages is closely connected with [Pan\\-Slavism](/wiki/Pan-Slavism \"Pan-Slavism\"), an ideology that endeavors cultural and political unification of all Slavs, based on the conception that all Slavic people are part of a single Slavic nation. Along with this belief came also the need for an umbrella Slavic language. The strongest candidate for that position among modern languages is [Russian](/wiki/Russian_language \"Russian language\"), the language of the largest (and, during most of the 19th century, the only) Slavic state, and mother tongue of more than half of Slavs. This option enjoys most of its popularity in Russia itself, but has also been favoured by Pan\\-Slavists abroad, for example the Slovak [Ľudovít Štúr](/wiki/%C4%BDudov%C3%ADt_%C5%A0t%C3%BAr \"Ľudovít Štúr\").Л.П. Рупосова, *История межславянского языка*, in: *Вестник Московского государственного областного университета* (Московский государственный областной университет, 2012 no. 1, p. 55\\. Others have proposed that [Old Church Slavonic](/wiki/Old_Church_Slavonic \"Old Church Slavonic\") would be a better and more neutral solution. In previous centuries, Old Church Slavonic had served as an administrative language across a large part of the Slavic world, and it is still used on a large scale in [Eastern Orthodox](/wiki/Eastern_Orthodox_Church \"Eastern Orthodox Church\") liturgy, where it plays a role similar to [Latin](/wiki/Ecclesiastical_Latin \"Ecclesiastical Latin\") in the West. Old Church Slavonic has the additional advantage of being similar to the common ancestor of the Slavic languages, [Proto\\-Slavic](/wiki/Proto-Slavic \"Proto-Slavic\"). However, it has several practical disadvantages as well: its grammar is complex, and its vocabulary is characterized by many words that have been lost from the modern languages, as well as an absence of words for modern concepts. Hence, early pan\\-Slavic language projects aimed at modernizing Old Church Slavonic and adapting it to the needs of everyday communication.\n\n### Early projects\n\nThe first pan\\-Slavic grammar, *Gramatíčno izkâzanje ob rúskom jezíku* by the Croatian priest [Juraj Križanić](/wiki/Juraj_Kri%C5%BEani%C4%87 \"Juraj Križanić\"), was written in 1665\\.Juraj Križanić, *Граматично изказанје об руском језику*.

He referred to the language as **[Ruski jezik](/wiki/%23Juraj_Kri%C5%BEani%C4%87 \"#Juraj Križanić\")** (\"Russian language\"), but in reality it was mostly based on a mixture of the Russian edition of [Church Slavonic](/wiki/Church_Slavonic \"Church Slavonic\") and his own [Southern Chakavian](/wiki/Southern_Chakavian \"Southern Chakavian\") dialect of [Croatian](/wiki/Croatian_language \"Croatian language\"). Križanić used it not only for this grammar, but also in other works, including the treatise *Politika* (1663–1666\\). According to an analysis of the Dutch Slavist Tom Ekman, 59% of the words used in *Politika* are of common Slavic descent, 10% come from Russian and Church Slavonic, 9% from Croatian and 2\\.5% from Polish.\n\nKrižanić was not the first who attempted writing in a language understandable to all Slavs. In 1583 another Croatian priest, [Šime Budinić](/wiki/%C5%A0ime_Budini%C4%87 \"Šime Budinić\"), had translated the *Summa Doctrinae Christanae* by [Petrus Canisius](/wiki/Petrus_Canisius \"Petrus Canisius\") into [**Slovignsky**](/wiki/%23%C5%A0ime_Budini%C4%87 \"#Šime Budinić\"),Petrus Canisius, \"Svmma navka christianskoga / sloxena castnim včitegliem Petrom Kanisiem; tvmacena iz latinskoga jazika v slovignsky, i vtisstena po zapoviedi presuetoga Otca Pape Gregoria Trinaestoga \\[...] Koie iz Vlasskoga, illi Latinskoga iazika, v Slouignsky Jazik protumačio iest pop Ssimvn Bvdineo Zadranin\". Rome, 1583\\. in which he used both the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets.Hanna Orzechowska, Mieczysław Basaj, Instytut Słowianoznawstwa (Polska Akademia Nauk), *Prekursorzy słowiańskiego jezykoznawstwa porównawczego, do końca XVIII wiek*. Warsaw, 1987, p. 124\\. \n\nAfter Križanić, numerous other efforts have been made to create an umbrella language for the speakers of Slavic languages. A notable example is [**Universalis Lingua Slavica**](/wiki/%23J%C3%A1n_Herke%C4%BE \"#Ján Herkeľ\") by the Slovak attorney [Ján Herkeľ](/wiki/J%C3%A1n_Herke%C4%BE \"Ján Herkeľ\") (1786–1853\\), published in Latin in 1826\\.Ján Herkeľ, *Elementa universalis linguae Slavicae e vivis dialectis eruta at sanis logicae principiis suffulta*. Budapest, 1826, 164 pp. Unlike Križanić' project, this project was closer to the [West Slavic languages](/wiki/West_Slavic_languages \"West Slavic languages\").\n\nDuring the second half of the 19th century Pan\\-Slavic language projects were mostly the domain of Slovenes and Croats. In this era of awakening national consciousness, the Russians were the only Slavs who had their own state; other Slavic peoples inhabited large, mostly non\\-Slavic states, and clear borders between the various nations were mostly lacking. Among the numerous efforts at creating written standards for the [South Slavic languages](/wiki/South_Slavic_languages \"South Slavic languages\") there were also efforts at establishing a common South Slavic language, [Illyrian](/wiki/Illyrian_movement \"Illyrian movement\"), that might also serve as a literary language for all Slavs in the future. Of special importance is the work of [Matija Majar](/wiki/Matija_Majar \"Matija Majar\") (1809–1892\\), a Slovenian [Austroslavist](/wiki/Austroslavism \"Austroslavism\") who later converted to Pan\\-Slavism. In 1865 he published [Uzajemni Pravopis Slavjanski](/wiki/Uzajemni_Pravopis_Slavjanski \"Uzajemni Pravopis Slavjanski\") (\"Mutual Slavic Orthography\").Matija Majar\\-Ziljski, *Uzajemni Pravopis Slavjanski, to je: Uzajemna Slovnica ali Mluvnica Slavjanska*. Prague, 1865\\. In this work, he postulated that the best way for Slavs to communicate with other Slavs was by taking their own language as a starting point and then modifying it in steps. First, he proposed changing the orthography of each individual language into a generic (\"mutual\") Pan\\-Slavic orthography, subsequently he described a grammar that was based on comparing five major Slavic languages of his days: Old Church Slavonic, Russian, Polish, Czech and Serbian. Apart from a book about the language itself, Majar also used it for a biography of [Cyril and Methodius](/wiki/Cyril_and_Methodius \"Cyril and Methodius\")Matija Majar Ziljski, *Sveta brata Ciril i Metod, slavjanska apostola i osnovatelja slovstva slavjanskoga*. Prague, 1864\\. and for a magazine he published in the years 1873–1875, *Slavjan*. A fragment in the language can still be seen on the altar of Majar's church in [Görtschach](/wiki/G%C3%B6rtschach \"Görtschach\").Robert Gary Minnich, \"Collective identity formation and linguistic identities in the Austro\\-Italian Slovene border region\", in: Dieter Stern \\& Christian Voss, *Marginal Linguistic Identities: Studies in Slavic Contact and Borderland Varieties*, p. 104\\.

In most cases they provided grammatical comparisons between the Slavic languages, sometimes but not always offering solutions they labelled as \"Pan\\-Slavic\". What their projects have in common that they neither have a rigidly prescriptive grammar, nor a separate vocabulary.\n\n### The twentieth century\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Bohumil Holý (1885–1947\\)](/wiki/File:Bohumil_Holy.jpg \"Bohumil Holy.jpg\")\nIn the early 20th century it had become clear that the divergence of the Slavic languages was irreversible and the concept of a Pan\\-Slavic literary language was no longer realistic. The Pan\\-Slavic dream had lost most of its power, and Pan\\-Slavists had to satisfy themselves with the formation of two multinational Slavic states, [Czechoslovakia](/wiki/Czechoslovakia \"Czechoslovakia\") and [Yugoslavia](/wiki/Yugoslavia \"Yugoslavia\"). However, the need for a common language of communication for Slavs was still felt, and due to the influence of constructed languages like [Esperanto](/wiki/Esperanto \"Esperanto\"), efforts were made to create a language that was no longer supposed to replace the individual Slavic languages, but to serve as an additional second language for pan\\-Slavic communication.\n\nIn the same period, the nexus of pan\\-Slavic activity shifted to the North, especially to the Czech lands. In 1907 the Czech dialectologist [Ignác Hošek](/wiki/Ign%C3%A1c_Ho%C5%A1ek \"Ignác Hošek\") (1852–1919\\) published a grammar of **Neuslavisch**, a proposal for a common literary language for all Slavs within the [Austro\\-Hungarian Monarchy](/wiki/Austria-Hungary \"Austria-Hungary\").Ignác Hošek, *Grammatik der Neuslawischen Sprache*. Kremsier, 1907\\. Five years later another Czech, [Josef Konečný](/wiki/Josef_Kone%C4%8Dn%C3%BD \"Josef Konečný\"), published **[Slavina](/wiki/%23Slavina \"#Slavina\")**, a \"Slavic Esperanto\", which however had very little in common with Esperanto, but instead was mostly based on Czech.Josef Konečný, *Mluvnička slovanského esperanta \"Slavina\". Jednotná spisovná slovanská dorozumívací rěč, jak pro obchod, tak průmysl*. Prague, 1912\\. А. Д Дуличенко, *Международные вспомогательные языки*. Tallinn, 1990\\. Whereas these two projects were naturalistic, the same cannot be said about two other projects by Czech authors, **[Slovanština](/wiki/%23Slovan%C5%A1tina \"#Slovanština\")** by [Edmund Kolkop](/wiki/Edmund_Kolkop \"Edmund Kolkop\")Edmund Kolkop, *Pokus o dorozumívací jazyk slovanský*. Prague, 1912, 16 pp. and **Slavski jezik** by [Bohumil Holý](/wiki/Bohumil_Hol%C3%BD \"Bohumil Holý\").B. Holý, *Slavski jezik. Stručná mluvnice dorozumívacího i jednotícího jazyka všeslovanského. S pomocí spolupracovníků podává stenograf В. Holý.* Nové Město nad Metují, 1920\\. Both projects, published in 1912 and 1920 respectively, show a clear tendency towards simplification, for example by eliminating grammatical [gender](/wiki/Gender_%28grammar%29 \"Gender (grammar)\") and [cases](/wiki/Case_%28grammar%29 \"Case (grammar)\"), and [schematicism](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language%23Classification \"International auxiliary language#Classification\"). \n\nDuring the 1950s the Czech poet and former Esperantist (1920–2000\\), also known under his pseudonym Jiří Karen, worked for several years with a team of prominent interlinguists on an elaborate project, **[Mežduslavjanski jezik](/wiki/%23Me%C5%BEduslavjanski_jezik \"#Mežduslavjanski jezik\")** (\"Interslavic language\"). Among other things, they wrote a grammar, an Esperanto–Interslavic word list, a dictionary, a course and a textbook. Although none of those were ever published, the project gained some attention of linguists from various countries.Věra Barandovská\\-Frank, \"Panslawische Variationen\", in: Cyril Brosch \\& Sabine Fiedler (eds.), *Florilegium Interlinguisticum. Festschrift für Detlev Blanke zum 70\\. Geburtstag*. Frankfurt am Main, 2011, pp. 220–223\\. Probably due to the political reality of those days, this language was primarily based on Russian.\n\n### The digital age\n\nAlthough Pan\\-Slavism has not played a role of any significance since the collapse of the [Soviet Union](/wiki/Soviet_Union \"Soviet Union\") and [Yugoslavia](/wiki/Yugoslavia \"Yugoslavia\"), [globalization](/wiki/Globalization \"Globalization\") and new media like the [Internet](/wiki/Internet \"Internet\") have led to a renewed interest in a language that would be understandable for all Slavs alike. After the fall of the USSR, the role of the Russian language as a [lingua franca](/wiki/Lingua_franca \"Lingua franca\") in Eastern Europe and the Balkans diminished, also because many inhabitants of other countries in the region perceived it as the language of their former oppressor.Leonidas Donskis, \"The Failed Lingua Franca of Eastern Europe?\". In: *New Eastern Europe* 2 (VI), pp. 63–72\\. Older projects were largely forgotten, but as it became relatively easy for authors to publish their work, several new projects emerged, mostly in Slavic émigrée circles. Thus, during the first years of the 21st century projects appeared under names like **Slovo**, **Glagolica**, **Proslava** and **Ruslavsk**.Tilman Berger, [\"Vom Erfinden Slavischer Sprachen\"](http://homepages.uni-tuebingen.de/tilman.berger/Publikationen/BergerPlansprachen.pdf), in: M. Okuka \\& U. Schweier, eds., *Germano\\-Slavistische Beiträge. Festschrift für P. Rehder zum 65\\. Geburtstag*. München, 2004, ). Most of them were incomplete and abandoned by their authors after a while.\n\nThe only project that acquired some fame in the same period was **[Slovio](/wiki/%23Slovio \"#Slovio\")** of the Slovak Mark Hučko. Unlike most previous projects it was not a naturalistic, but a [schematic](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language%23Classification \"International auxiliary language#Classification\") language, its grammar being based almost entirely on [Esperanto](/wiki/Esperanto \"Esperanto\").Katherine Barber, [\"Old Church Slavonic and the 'Slavic Identity'\"](https://web.archive.org/web/20100607222108/http://www.unc.edu/depts/slavdept/lajanda/slav075barber.ppt). University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In addition, it was a fully functional language, and it became the first pan\\-Slavic language with a small user community. Slovio was not only intended to serve as an auxiliary language for Slavs, but also for use on a global scale like Esperanto. For that reason it gained little acceptance among Slavs: a high degree of simplification, characteristic for most international auxiliary languages, makes it easier to learn for non\\-Slavs, but widens the distance with the natural Slavic languages and gives the language an overly artificial character, which by many is considered a disadvantage. Hučko maintained a proprietary hold on Slovio, and since 2011 the language is no longer being developed and is effectively defunct.\n\nPartly in response to the problems of Slovio, a more naturalistic and community\\-based project was started in 2006 under the name **Slovianski** by a group of people from different countries. Initially, it was being developed in three grammar versions: a naturalistic version by [Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/Jan_van_Steenbergen \"Jan van Steenbergen\"), a more simplified, pidgin\\-like version by Ondrej Rečnik and a schematic version by Gabriel Svoboda, but in 2009 it was decided that only the naturalistic version would be continued under the name Slovianski. Slovianski was mostly used in Internet traffic and in a news letter, *Slovianska Gazeta*.Н. М. Малюга, [\"Мовознавство в питаннях і відповідях для вчителя й учнів 5 класу\"](http://www.nbuv.gov.ua/portal/Soc_Gum/PhSt/texts/2008-1.pdf), in: *Філологічні студії.

International Journal of Russian Studies, issue no. 2 (2013/2\\), p. 258\\.\n\nAn effort to bring Slovianski and Slovio together resulted in **Slovioski** in 2009\\. Its original purpose was to provide Slovio with a more naturalistic grammar, but gradually it developed into a separate language project. Like Slovianski, it was a collaborative project that existed in two variants: a \"full\" and a simplified version.Дора Солакова, \"Съвременни опити за създаване на изкуствен общославянски език\", in: *Езиков свят – Orbis Linguarum, Issue no.2/2010* (Югозападен Университет \"Неофит Рилски\", Blagoevgrad, 2010, ISSN 1312\\-0484\\), p. 248\\. Another project that saw the light in the same period was **Novoslověnsky** (\"Neoslavonic\") by the Czech [Vojtěch Merunka](/wiki/Vojt%C4%9Bch_Merunka \"Vojtěch Merunka\"), based on [Old Church Slavonic grammar](/wiki/Old_Church_Slavonic_grammar \"Old Church Slavonic grammar\") but using part of Slovianski's vocabulary.Vojtěch Merunka, *Jazyk novoslovienskij*.

In 2017 and 2018 Interslavic conferences took place in the Czech Republic, and in 2019 the language was featured in [Václav Marhoul](/wiki/V%C3%A1clav_Marhoul \"Václav Marhoul\")'s movie [*The Painted Bird*](/wiki/The_Painted_Bird_%28film%29 \"The Painted Bird (film)\").

Both projects, published in 1912 and 1920 respectively, show a clear tendency towards simplification, for example by eliminating grammatical [gender](/wiki/Gender_%28grammar%29 \"Gender (grammar)\") and [cases](/wiki/Case_%28grammar%29 \"Case (grammar)\"), and [schematicism](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language%23Classification \"International auxiliary language#Classification\"). \n\nDuring the 1950s the Czech poet and former Esperantist (1920–2000\\), also known under his pseudonym Jiří Karen, worked for several years with a team of prominent interlinguists on an elaborate project, **[Mežduslavjanski jezik](/wiki/%23Me%C5%BEduslavjanski_jezik \"#Mežduslavjanski jezik\")** (\"Interslavic language\"). Among other things, they wrote a grammar, an Esperanto–Interslavic word list, a dictionary, a course and a textbook. Although none of those were ever published, the project gained some attention of linguists from various countries.Věra Barandovská\\-Frank, \"Panslawische Variationen\", in: Cyril Brosch \\& Sabine Fiedler (eds.), *Florilegium Interlinguisticum.

Probably due to the political reality of those days, this language was primarily based on Russian.\n\n", "### The digital age\n\nAlthough Pan\\-Slavism has not played a role of any significance since the collapse of the [Soviet Union](/wiki/Soviet_Union \"Soviet Union\") and [Yugoslavia](/wiki/Yugoslavia \"Yugoslavia\"), [globalization](/wiki/Globalization \"Globalization\") and new media like the [Internet](/wiki/Internet \"Internet\") have led to a renewed interest in a language that would be understandable for all Slavs alike. After the fall of the USSR, the role of the Russian language as a [lingua franca](/wiki/Lingua_franca \"Lingua franca\") in Eastern Europe and the Balkans diminished, also because many inhabitants of other countries in the region perceived it as the language of their former oppressor.Leonidas Donskis, \"The Failed Lingua Franca of Eastern Europe?\". In: *New Eastern Europe* 2 (VI), pp. 63–72\\. Older projects were largely forgotten, but as it became relatively easy for authors to publish their work, several new projects emerged, mostly in Slavic émigrée circles. Thus, during the first years of the 21st century projects appeared under names like **Slovo**, **Glagolica**, **Proslava** and **Ruslavsk**.Tilman Berger, [\"Vom Erfinden Slavischer Sprachen\"](http://homepages.uni-tuebingen.de/tilman.berger/Publikationen/BergerPlansprachen.pdf), in: M. Okuka \\& U. Schweier, eds., *Germano\\-Slavistische Beiträge. Festschrift für P. Rehder zum 65\\. Geburtstag*. München, 2004, ). Most of them were incomplete and abandoned by their authors after a while.\n\nThe only project that acquired some fame in the same period was **[Slovio](/wiki/%23Slovio \"#Slovio\")** of the Slovak Mark Hučko. Unlike most previous projects it was not a naturalistic, but a [schematic](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language%23Classification \"International auxiliary language#Classification\") language, its grammar being based almost entirely on [Esperanto](/wiki/Esperanto \"Esperanto\").Katherine Barber, [\"Old Church Slavonic and the 'Slavic Identity'\"](https://web.archive.org/web/20100607222108/http://www.unc.edu/depts/slavdept/lajanda/slav075barber.ppt). University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In addition, it was a fully functional language, and it became the first pan\\-Slavic language with a small user community. Slovio was not only intended to serve as an auxiliary language for Slavs, but also for use on a global scale like Esperanto. For that reason it gained little acceptance among Slavs: a high degree of simplification, characteristic for most international auxiliary languages, makes it easier to learn for non\\-Slavs, but widens the distance with the natural Slavic languages and gives the language an overly artificial character, which by many is considered a disadvantage. Hučko maintained a proprietary hold on Slovio, and since 2011 the language is no longer being developed and is effectively defunct.\n\nPartly in response to the problems of Slovio, a more naturalistic and community\\-based project was started in 2006 under the name **Slovianski** by a group of people from different countries. Initially, it was being developed in three grammar versions: a naturalistic version by [Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/Jan_van_Steenbergen \"Jan van Steenbergen\"), a more simplified, pidgin\\-like version by Ondrej Rečnik and a schematic version by Gabriel Svoboda, but in 2009 it was decided that only the naturalistic version would be continued under the name Slovianski. Slovianski was mostly used in Internet traffic and in a news letter, *Slovianska Gazeta*.Н. М.

Its original purpose was to provide Slovio with a more naturalistic grammar, but gradually it developed into a separate language project. Like Slovianski, it was a collaborative project that existed in two variants: a \"full\" and a simplified version.Дора Солакова, \"Съвременни опити за създаване на изкуствен общославянски език\", in: *Езиков свят – Orbis Linguarum, Issue no.2/2010* (Югозападен Университет \"Неофит Рилски\", Blagoevgrad, 2010, ISSN 1312\\-0484\\), p. 248\\.

In this work he described in fact not the Russian language but a Common Slavonic language based on different Slavic languages, mostly on Russian and [Chakavian Croatian](/wiki/Chakavian \"Chakavian\"). The author used it not only for this grammar, but also in other works, including the treatise *Politika* (1663–1666\\). According to an analysis of the Dutch Slavist Tom Ekman, 59% of the words used in *Politika* are of common Slavic descent, 10% come from Russian and Church Slavonic, 9% from Croatian and 2\\.5% from Polish.\n\nSample (Romanized, original in Cyrillic):\n *Iazika sowerszenost iest samo potrebno orudie k mudrosti, i iedwa ne stanowito iee zname.

It was created and published by the Slovak attorney [Ján Herkeľ](/wiki/J%C3%A1n_Herke%C4%BE \"Ján Herkeľ\") (1786–1853\\) in his work *Elementa universalis linguae Slavicae* in 1826\\. Unlike languages like Esperanto, it had no well\\-defined grammar and no vocabulary of its own. Like many other pan\\-Slavists in the 19th century, Herkeľ considered the Slavic languages dialects of a single Slavic language, and his book is mostly a comparative grammar of these dialects, in which he sometimes offered grammatical solutions explicitly characterized by him as \"Universal Slavic\".\n\nAlthough Herkeľ found Cyrillic more suitable for the Slavic languages, he nevertheless chose the Latin alphabet for his project, with the addition of a few Cyrillic letters:Ľudmila Buzássyová, \"Filologická koncepcia Jána Herkeľa v diele Základy všeobecného slovanského jazyka odvodené zo živých rečí a podložené zdravými zásadami logiky\", in: *Biografické štúdie 28* (Žáner: Literárna veda, 2002\\), p. 28\\. ч and ш for *č* and *š* (remarkably, for *ž* he preferred *ƶ*, although he explicitly did not exclude Cyrillic ж either), as well as *x* for *h/ch*.\n\nNear the end of his book, Herkeľ gave a few examples of his *Stylus Universalis*, applied to the \"Pannonian\" (Slovak) dialect:\n*Za starego vieku byla jedna kralica, koja mala tri prelepije dievice: milicu, krasicu a mudricu; vse tri byle bogate, okrem bogatstva milica byla pokorna, krasica uctiva, a mudrica umena. \n\"In olden times there was a queen who had three very beautiful girls: Kindness, Beauty, and Wisdom; all three were rich, in addition to being rich Kindness was humble, Beauty was polite, and Wisdom was wise.\"*\n\n#### Slavina\n\nSlavina *was created by Josef Konečný in 1912 in Prague and published in the same year in a booklet titled* Mluvnička slovanského esperanta \"Slavina\"*. According to the author, its main purpose was to serve as a communication tool in trade and industry. The subtitle of the language, \"a Slavic Esperanto\" (or its Esperanto translation \"Slava Esperanto\"), is sometimes erroneously cited as the name of the language, but in reality the language had very little in common with Esperanto. Instead, it was a clear example of a naturalistic language, with three grammatical genders, seven noun cases and five verbal tenses. Although Konečný claimed his language was based on all Slavic languages, it bore a striking similarity to his native Czech, both orthographically, phonologically, lexically and morphologically. Particularly unusual for a pan\\-Slavic language project was the distinction between long and short consonants.*The first sentence from the song [Hey, Slavs](/wiki/Hey%2C_Slavs \"Hey, Slavs\"):\nHej, Slované, naši lepo slovanó rěč máme, dokud naše věrné srece pro náš národ dáme.*\"Hey, Slavs, we will have our beautiful Slavic language, as long as we give our faithful heart for our people.\"*#### Slovanština\n\nSlovanština *(Czech for \"Slavic language\") is the oldest example of a [schematic](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language%23Classification \"International auxiliary language#Classification\") language for pan\\-Slavic use. It was published in 1912 by the Czech linguist and esperantist Edmund Kolkop (1877–1915\\) in his booklet* Pokus o dorozumívací jazyk slovanský*. Kolkop had no political, pan\\-Slavic ambitions but felt frustrated by the fact that Slavs had to resort to German for their communication and believed that they would be helped with a simple, artificially created Slavic language, for which he took Esperanto as an example. The language had no [grammatical gender](/wiki/Gender_%28grammar%29 \"Gender (grammar)\") and no [cases](/wiki/Case_%28grammar%29 \"Case (grammar)\"), all nouns and adjectives ended in a consonant, plurals were formed with* \\-a *for nouns and* \\-i *for adjectives, and verbs were conjugated only for [tense](/wiki/Grammatical_tense \"Grammatical tense\"). Slavic word roots were derived regularly from Church Slavonic, and international vocabulary was used when a Slavic word was hard to find. The language was written in the Latin alphabet with a few unusual additions:* ſ *for* š*,* з *for* ž*,* ч *for* č*,* y *for* j*,* j *for* ť*,* θ *for* ď *and* ι *for* ň*.*The [Gospel of Matthew](/wiki/Gospel_of_Matthew \"Gospel of Matthew\"), 3:1–2:\nVe tamji dιa priideo Yan Krestar, kazaya na puſj ve zem Yudesk; i rekaya: Pokayaιiy nehaj vi чiιi, bo pribliзio sa carstviy nebesk.*\"In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea; and saying: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.\"*#### Neposlava\n\n[thumb\\|right\\|180px\\|Vsevolod Cheshikhin (1865–1934\\)](/wiki/File:Brockhaus_and_Efron_Encyclopedic_Dictionary_B82_57-5.jpg \"Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary B82 57-5.jpg\")\nNeposlava *was an unpublished project, created by the Russian writer, publicist and music critic [Vsevolod Yevgrafovich Cheshikhin](/wiki/Vsevolod_Yevgrafovich_Cheshikhin \"Vsevolod Yevgrafovich Cheshikhin\") (Всеволод Евграфович Чешихин) in [Nizhny Novgorod](/wiki/Nizhny_Novgorod \"Nizhny Novgorod\"), Russia. It was based on a system created by him in 1913 to construct zonal languages based on Esperanto affixes which are used with national roots and called it [Nepo](/wiki/dictionary:Nepo \"Nepo\"). According to that principle, he created Neposlava (\"Slavic Nepo\"), a Nepo\\-language based on Russian, Polish, Czech and Serbian lexicon, in 1915 or 1916\\. It is unknown how elaborated this language project really was. He also used this system to construct other \"new Esperantoes\" based on Latin\\-Romance and Germanic languages.*A fragment from the [Lord's Prayer](/wiki/Lord%27s_Prayer \"Lord's Prayer\"):\nVatero nia, kotoryja estas in la njebov, heiligia estu nomo via.*\"Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.\"*#### Mežduslavjanski jezik\n\nMežduslavjanski jezik *(\"Interslavic language\") was an elaborate project worked on during the years 1954–1958 in Czechoslovakia by a group of interlinguists, led by the poet Ladislav Podmele a.k.a. Jiří Karen (1920–2000\\) and the pedagogue Jaroslav Podobský (1895–1962\\), both of whom were prominent members of the [Occidental](/wiki/Interlingue \"Interlingue\") movement. Their idea was that four zonal languages (an [inter\\-Germanic](/wiki/Pan-Germanic_language \"Pan-Germanic language\"), an [inter\\-Romance](/wiki/Pan-Romance_language \"Pan-Romance language\"), an inter\\-Slavic and an inter\\-[Indic language](/wiki/Indo-Aryan_languages \"Indo-Aryan languages\")) together would enable two thirds of the world's population to communicate with each other. The language they created used grammatical and lexical features of various Slavic languages, primarily Russian and Czech, and may be viewed as a naturalistic [planned language](/wiki/Planned_language \"Planned language\"). They wrote a grammar (*Kratka grammatika mežduslavjanskego jezika*), an Esperanto–Interslavic word list, a dictionary, a course, a textbook and a few longer texts, practically none of which were ever published.Věra Barandovská\\-Frank, \"Lingvopolitiko kaj interslavismo de Ladislav Podmele\". In: *Grundlagenstudien aus Kybernetik und Geisteswissenschaft*, no. 54:4, December 2013, Akademia Libroservo, ISSN 0723\\-4899, pp. 176–189\\. Nevertheless, the project gained some attention of linguists from various countries.*An excerpt from the manuscript Revolucija v istoriji interlingvistiki*:*Do tego casu bila aktivnost za meždunarodni jezik osnovana na principach utopizma, jež ždal si jedinego jezika za ves mir bez vzgleda na fakt, cto taki jezik ne može bit v nikakim pripadu rezultatem realnego razvoja jezikov živich, cto on bude vsegda tolika vidumana, spekulativna konstrukcija.*\"To date, activity for an international language has been based on principles of utopianism, which endeavoured one language for the whole world without regard to the fact that such a language can in no way result from real development of living languages, that it wil always be an invented, speculative construction.\"*\n\n#### Slovio\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Mark Hučko](/wiki/File:Mark_Hu%C4%8Dko_2.jpg \"Mark Hučko 2.jpg\")\nOne of the first projects in the digital era was Slovio*, a project created in 1999 and published in 2001 by the Slovak Mark Hučko. Unlike previous projects, Slovio was not only intended to serve as a pan\\-Slavic language, but also to compete with languages like [Esperanto](/wiki/Esperanto \"Esperanto\") and [Ido](/wiki/Ido \"Ido\") as a global [international auxiliary language](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language \"International auxiliary language\"). Most of its vocabulary was based on Slavic roots, but its grammar was almost entirely based on Esperanto, with an emphasis on simplicity. Verb conjugations were regular apart from the four verbs* es *(\"be\"),* mozx *(\"can\"),* hce *(\"want\"),* dolzx *(\"must\"). Adjectives typically ended in* \\-ju*, the nouns formed their plural in* \\-s *or* \\-is*, and the only case was the accusative in* \\-f *or* \\-uf *(plural:* \\-fs *or \\-*ifs*). Slovio could be written in Latin or Cyrillic, but was typically written in Latin, with digraphs in* x *replacing the haček (e.g.* zx *for* ž*).*Slovio was the first Slavic\\-based constructed language with a substantial dictionary and a small user community, at its peak consisting of 10–15 users (mostly diaspora Slavs) and a number of interested bystanders. In spite of heavy marketing on the part of its creator, Slovio gained little support; it was heavily criticized for its artificial, un\\-Slavic character and the radical Slavic\\-nationalist views expressed by its users. Perhaps due to Hučko's insistence on owning the language and his hostile attitude towards proposed changes (similar to the situation with [Volapük](/wiki/Volap%C3%BCk \"Volapük\")), people interested in a pan\\-Slavic language moved on to other projects. It became defunct by about 2011\\.\nA passage on the origin of the Europeans (satirical example text and a translation):\nTo es bezsporju historju fakt zxe sovremju Europanis (negda imenitju Indo\\-Europanis) es potomkis om Dunavju Slavis (negda imenitju Dunavju Lesju Ludis). Odnakuo to es bezsporju fakt zxe vse Europju jazikas originijut iz odnakju jazika, jazika om Dunavju Slavis.*\"It's an undisputed historical fact that the current day Europeans (sometimes called Indo\\-Europeans) are all descendants of the Danubian Slavs (sometimes called the Danubian Forest People). Equally, it is an undisputed fact that all European languages originate from the same common language, the language of the Danubian Slavs.\"*#### Slovianski\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/File:Jan_van_steenbergen.jpg \"Jan van steenbergen.jpg\")\nTo address the problems of Slovio, a community\\-based project called [*Slovianski*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Slovianski \"Interslavic#Slovianski\") was begun in 2006\\. Its main purpose was to create a simple, naturalistic language that would be understandable to Slavs without prior learning*. This was approached with a voting system to choose words for the lexicon and a grammar consisting of material existing in all or most Slavic languages, without any artificial additions.Bojana Barlovac, [Creation of 'One Language for All Slavs' Underway](https://web.archive.org/web/20100221202058/http://www.balkaninsight.com/en/main/news/25946). BalkanInsight, 18 February 2010\\. Slovianski was developed in different versions. The version of its principal author, [Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/Jan_van_Steenbergen \"Jan van Steenbergen\"), had three [genders](/wiki/Gender_%28grammar%29 \"Gender (grammar)\") (masculine, feminine, neuter), six [cases](/wiki/Case_%28grammar%29 \"Case (grammar)\") and full [conjugation](/wiki/Grammatical_conjugation \"Grammatical conjugation\") of verbs. A high level of simplification was achieved by means of simple, unambiguous endings and irregularity being kept to a minimum.*Slovianski was mostly used in Internet traffic and in a news letter, Slovianska Gazeta*.Алина Петропавловская, \\[. Европейский русский альянс, 23 June 2007\\. In 2012, the language was reported to have several hundreds of speakers.*\n\n[The Lord's Prayer](/wiki/The_Lord%27s_Prayer \"The Lord's Prayer\") in Slovianski:\nNaš otec, ktori jesi v nebah, da svečene je tvoje imeno, da prijde tvoje krolevstvo, da bude tvoja volia, kak v nebah tak i na zemie. Hleb naš každodenni daj nam tutden', i izvinij nam naše grehi, tak kak mi izvinime naših grešnikov, i ne vedij nas v pokušenie, ali spasij nas od zlogo. *\"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.\"*#### Slovioski\n\nIn 2009, [*Slovioski*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Slovioski \"Interslavic#Slovioski\") (a [portmanteau](/wiki/Portmanteau \"Portmanteau\") of Slovio and Slovianski) was launched with the idea of bringing together both language projects. Its initial purpose was merely to provide Slovio with a more Slavic grammar (for example, by substituting the adjective ending \\-ju *with* \\-ij *and the plural ending* \\-is *with* \\-i*), but gradually, it developed into a separate language project, widening its distance to Slovio and abandoning the Slovio dictionary in 2010\\. After Slovianski was reworked into* [Interslavic](/wiki/%23Interslavic \"#Interslavic\")*, Slovioski was discontinued.*#### Neoslavonic\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Vojtěch Merunka](/wiki/File:Vojt%C4%9Bch_Merunka_-_september_2019.jpg \"Vojtěch Merunka - september 2019.jpg\")\n[*Novoslovienskij*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Neoslavonic \"Interslavic#Neoslavonic\") (\"Neoslavonic\") was published in a 128\\-page book by the Czech pedagogue and programmer [Vojtěch Merunka](/wiki/Vojt%C4%9Bch_Merunka \"Vojtěch Merunka\") as a study of what [Old Church Slavonic](/wiki/Old_Church_Slavonic \"Old Church Slavonic\") might look like today if it had not stopped developing in the Middle Ages. As a result, Neoslavonic had a complex grammar characterized by various archaisms, for example: four types of past tense, [dual](/wiki/Dual_number \"Dual number\"), seven cases and the Cyrillic letter [ѣ](/wiki/%D1%A2 \"Ѣ\"), but on the other hand, it contained few exceptions and a relatively small number of repetitive rules. Neoslavonic could be written in four alphabets, [Latin](/wiki/Latin_alphabet \"Latin alphabet\"), [Cyrillic](/wiki/Cyrillic_alphabet \"Cyrillic alphabet\"), [Greek](/wiki/Greek_alphabet \"Greek alphabet\") and [Glagolitic](/wiki/Glagolitic_alphabet \"Glagolitic alphabet\"). \nExample:\nUvažimi gospodi! Tu jest projekt jezyka novoslovienskego. Prošu Vas, da byste jego čitali i poslali Vašim prijateljam, jako li oni hočut to vidieti.*\"Dear Sirs! Here is the Neoslavonic language project. I ask you to read it and send it to your friends if they want to see it.\"*### Contemporary pan\\-Slavic\n\nIn 2011, Slovianski was renamed Medžuslovjanski *(\"Interslavic\"), and its grammar and dictionary were revised to include all options of Neoslavonic and several older projects. A close collaboration was started between them, resulting in a common dictionary, a common news portal and a common wiki, and during the years to follow, Medžuslovjanski and Novoslovienskij (soon renamed* Novoslověnsky*) gradually grew closer to each other. As a result, most differences between both projects vanished in a natural way.

It was created and published by the Slovak attorney [Ján Herkeľ](/wiki/J%C3%A1n_Herke%C4%BE \"Ján Herkeľ\") (1786–1853\\) in his work *Elementa universalis linguae Slavicae* in 1826\\. Unlike languages like Esperanto, it had no well\\-defined grammar and no vocabulary of its own. Like many other pan\\-Slavists in the 19th century, Herkeľ considered the Slavic languages dialects of a single Slavic language, and his book is mostly a comparative grammar of these dialects, in which he sometimes offered grammatical solutions explicitly characterized by him as \"Universal Slavic\".\n\nAlthough Herkeľ found Cyrillic more suitable for the Slavic languages, he nevertheless chose the Latin alphabet for his project, with the addition of a few Cyrillic letters:Ľudmila Buzássyová, \"Filologická koncepcia Jána Herkeľa v diele Základy všeobecného slovanského jazyka odvodené zo živých rečí a podložené zdravými zásadami logiky\", in: *Biografické štúdie 28* (Žáner: Literárna veda, 2002\\), p. 28\\. ч and ш for *č* and *š* (remarkably, for *ž* he preferred *ƶ*, although he explicitly did not exclude Cyrillic ж either), as well as *x* for *h/ch*.\n\nNear the end of his book, Herkeľ gave a few examples of his *Stylus Universalis*, applied to the \"Pannonian\" (Slovak) dialect:\n*Za starego vieku byla jedna kralica, koja mala tri prelepije dievice: milicu, krasicu a mudricu; vse tri byle bogate, okrem bogatstva milica byla pokorna, krasica uctiva, a mudrica umena. \n\"In olden times there was a queen who had three very beautiful girls: Kindness, Beauty, and Wisdom; all three were rich, in addition to being rich Kindness was humble, Beauty was polite, and Wisdom was wise.\"*\n\n#### Slavina\n\nSlavina *was created by Josef Konečný in 1912 in Prague and published in the same year in a booklet titled* Mluvnička slovanského esperanta \"Slavina\"*. According to the author, its main purpose was to serve as a communication tool in trade and industry. The subtitle of the language, \"a Slavic Esperanto\" (or its Esperanto translation \"Slava Esperanto\"), is sometimes erroneously cited as the name of the language, but in reality the language had very little in common with Esperanto. Instead, it was a clear example of a naturalistic language, with three grammatical genders, seven noun cases and five verbal tenses. Although Konečný claimed his language was based on all Slavic languages, it bore a striking similarity to his native Czech, both orthographically, phonologically, lexically and morphologically. Particularly unusual for a pan\\-Slavic language project was the distinction between long and short consonants.*The first sentence from the song [Hey, Slavs](/wiki/Hey%2C_Slavs \"Hey, Slavs\"):\nHej, Slované, naši lepo slovanó rěč máme, dokud naše věrné srece pro náš národ dáme.*\"Hey, Slavs, we will have our beautiful Slavic language, as long as we give our faithful heart for our people.\"*#### Slovanština\n\nSlovanština *(Czech for \"Slavic language\") is the oldest example of a [schematic](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language%23Classification \"International auxiliary language#Classification\") language for pan\\-Slavic use. It was published in 1912 by the Czech linguist and esperantist Edmund Kolkop (1877–1915\\) in his booklet* Pokus o dorozumívací jazyk slovanský*. Kolkop had no political, pan\\-Slavic ambitions but felt frustrated by the fact that Slavs had to resort to German for their communication and believed that they would be helped with a simple, artificially created Slavic language, for which he took Esperanto as an example. The language had no [grammatical gender](/wiki/Gender_%28grammar%29 \"Gender (grammar)\") and no [cases](/wiki/Case_%28grammar%29 \"Case (grammar)\"), all nouns and adjectives ended in a consonant, plurals were formed with* \\-a *for nouns and* \\-i *for adjectives, and verbs were conjugated only for [tense](/wiki/Grammatical_tense \"Grammatical tense\"). Slavic word roots were derived regularly from Church Slavonic, and international vocabulary was used when a Slavic word was hard to find. The language was written in the Latin alphabet with a few unusual additions:* ſ *for* š*,* з *for* ž*,* ч *for* č*,* y *for* j*,* j *for* ť*,* θ *for* ď *and* ι *for* ň*.*The [Gospel of Matthew](/wiki/Gospel_of_Matthew \"Gospel of Matthew\"), 3:1–2:\nVe tamji dιa priideo Yan Krestar, kazaya na puſj ve zem Yudesk; i rekaya: Pokayaιiy nehaj vi чiιi, bo pribliзio sa carstviy nebesk.*\"In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea; and saying: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.\"*#### Neposlava\n\n[thumb\\|right\\|180px\\|Vsevolod Cheshikhin (1865–1934\\)](/wiki/File:Brockhaus_and_Efron_Encyclopedic_Dictionary_B82_57-5.jpg \"Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary B82 57-5.jpg\")\nNeposlava *was an unpublished project, created by the Russian writer, publicist and music critic [Vsevolod Yevgrafovich Cheshikhin](/wiki/Vsevolod_Yevgrafovich_Cheshikhin \"Vsevolod Yevgrafovich Cheshikhin\") (Всеволод Евграфович Чешихин) in [Nizhny Novgorod](/wiki/Nizhny_Novgorod \"Nizhny Novgorod\"), Russia. It was based on a system created by him in 1913 to construct zonal languages based on Esperanto affixes which are used with national roots and called it [Nepo](/wiki/dictionary:Nepo \"Nepo\"). According to that principle, he created Neposlava (\"Slavic Nepo\"), a Nepo\\-language based on Russian, Polish, Czech and Serbian lexicon, in 1915 or 1916\\. It is unknown how elaborated this language project really was. He also used this system to construct other \"new Esperantoes\" based on Latin\\-Romance and Germanic languages.*A fragment from the [Lord's Prayer](/wiki/Lord%27s_Prayer \"Lord's Prayer\"):\nVatero nia, kotoryja estas in la njebov, heiligia estu nomo via.*\"Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.\"*#### Mežduslavjanski jezik\n\nMežduslavjanski jezik *(\"Interslavic language\") was an elaborate project worked on during the years 1954–1958 in Czechoslovakia by a group of interlinguists, led by the poet Ladislav Podmele a.k.a. Jiří Karen (1920–2000\\) and the pedagogue Jaroslav Podobský (1895–1962\\), both of whom were prominent members of the [Occidental](/wiki/Interlingue \"Interlingue\") movement. Their idea was that four zonal languages (an [inter\\-Germanic](/wiki/Pan-Germanic_language \"Pan-Germanic language\"), an [inter\\-Romance](/wiki/Pan-Romance_language \"Pan-Romance language\"), an inter\\-Slavic and an inter\\-[Indic language](/wiki/Indo-Aryan_languages \"Indo-Aryan languages\")) together would enable two thirds of the world's population to communicate with each other. The language they created used grammatical and lexical features of various Slavic languages, primarily Russian and Czech, and may be viewed as a naturalistic [planned language](/wiki/Planned_language \"Planned language\"). They wrote a grammar (*Kratka grammatika mežduslavjanskego jezika*), an Esperanto–Interslavic word list, a dictionary, a course, a textbook and a few longer texts, practically none of which were ever published.Věra Barandovská\\-Frank, \"Lingvopolitiko kaj interslavismo de Ladislav Podmele\". In: *Grundlagenstudien aus Kybernetik und Geisteswissenschaft*, no. 54:4, December 2013, Akademia Libroservo, ISSN 0723\\-4899, pp. 176–189\\. Nevertheless, the project gained some attention of linguists from various countries.*An excerpt from the manuscript Revolucija v istoriji interlingvistiki*:*Do tego casu bila aktivnost za meždunarodni jezik osnovana na principach utopizma, jež ždal si jedinego jezika za ves mir bez vzgleda na fakt, cto taki jezik ne može bit v nikakim pripadu rezultatem realnego razvoja jezikov živich, cto on bude vsegda tolika vidumana, spekulativna konstrukcija.*\"To date, activity for an international language has been based on principles of utopianism, which endeavoured one language for the whole world without regard to the fact that such a language can in no way result from real development of living languages, that it wil always be an invented, speculative construction.\"*\n\n#### Slovio\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Mark Hučko](/wiki/File:Mark_Hu%C4%8Dko_2.jpg \"Mark Hučko 2.jpg\")\nOne of the first projects in the digital era was Slovio*, a project created in 1999 and published in 2001 by the Slovak Mark Hučko. Unlike previous projects, Slovio was not only intended to serve as a pan\\-Slavic language, but also to compete with languages like [Esperanto](/wiki/Esperanto \"Esperanto\") and [Ido](/wiki/Ido \"Ido\") as a global [international auxiliary language](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language \"International auxiliary language\"). Most of its vocabulary was based on Slavic roots, but its grammar was almost entirely based on Esperanto, with an emphasis on simplicity. Verb conjugations were regular apart from the four verbs* es *(\"be\"),* mozx *(\"can\"),* hce *(\"want\"),* dolzx *(\"must\"). Adjectives typically ended in* \\-ju*, the nouns formed their plural in* \\-s *or* \\-is*, and the only case was the accusative in* \\-f *or* \\-uf *(plural:* \\-fs *or \\-*ifs*). Slovio could be written in Latin or Cyrillic, but was typically written in Latin, with digraphs in* x *replacing the haček (e.g.* zx *for* ž*).*Slovio was the first Slavic\\-based constructed language with a substantial dictionary and a small user community, at its peak consisting of 10–15 users (mostly diaspora Slavs) and a number of interested bystanders. In spite of heavy marketing on the part of its creator, Slovio gained little support; it was heavily criticized for its artificial, un\\-Slavic character and the radical Slavic\\-nationalist views expressed by its users. Perhaps due to Hučko's insistence on owning the language and his hostile attitude towards proposed changes (similar to the situation with [Volapük](/wiki/Volap%C3%BCk \"Volapük\")), people interested in a pan\\-Slavic language moved on to other projects. It became defunct by about 2011\\.\nA passage on the origin of the Europeans (satirical example text and a translation):\nTo es bezsporju historju fakt zxe sovremju Europanis (negda imenitju Indo\\-Europanis) es potomkis om Dunavju Slavis (negda imenitju Dunavju Lesju Ludis). Odnakuo to es bezsporju fakt zxe vse Europju jazikas originijut iz odnakju jazika, jazika om Dunavju Slavis.*\"It's an undisputed historical fact that the current day Europeans (sometimes called Indo\\-Europeans) are all descendants of the Danubian Slavs (sometimes called the Danubian Forest People). Equally, it is an undisputed fact that all European languages originate from the same common language, the language of the Danubian Slavs.\"*#### Slovianski\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/File:Jan_van_steenbergen.jpg \"Jan van steenbergen.jpg\")\nTo address the problems of Slovio, a community\\-based project called [*Slovianski*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Slovianski \"Interslavic#Slovianski\") was begun in 2006\\. Its main purpose was to create a simple, naturalistic language that would be understandable to Slavs without prior learning*. This was approached with a voting system to choose words for the lexicon and a grammar consisting of material existing in all or most Slavic languages, without any artificial additions.Bojana Barlovac, [Creation of 'One Language for All Slavs' Underway](https://web.archive.org/web/20100221202058/http://www.balkaninsight.com/en/main/news/25946). BalkanInsight, 18 February 2010\\. Slovianski was developed in different versions. The version of its principal author, [Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/Jan_van_Steenbergen \"Jan van Steenbergen\"), had three [genders](/wiki/Gender_%28grammar%29 \"Gender (grammar)\") (masculine, feminine, neuter), six [cases](/wiki/Case_%28grammar%29 \"Case (grammar)\") and full [conjugation](/wiki/Grammatical_conjugation \"Grammatical conjugation\") of verbs. A high level of simplification was achieved by means of simple, unambiguous endings and irregularity being kept to a minimum.*Slovianski was mostly used in Internet traffic and in a news letter, Slovianska Gazeta*.Алина Петропавловская, \\[. Европейский русский альянс, 23 June 2007\\. In 2012, the language was reported to have several hundreds of speakers.*\n\n[The Lord's Prayer](/wiki/The_Lord%27s_Prayer \"The Lord's Prayer\") in Slovianski:\nNaš otec, ktori jesi v nebah, da svečene je tvoje imeno, da prijde tvoje krolevstvo, da bude tvoja volia, kak v nebah tak i na zemie. Hleb naš každodenni daj nam tutden', i izvinij nam naše grehi, tak kak mi izvinime naših grešnikov, i ne vedij nas v pokušenie, ali spasij nas od zlogo. *\"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.\"*#### Slovioski\n\nIn 2009, [*Slovioski*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Slovioski \"Interslavic#Slovioski\") (a [portmanteau](/wiki/Portmanteau \"Portmanteau\") of Slovio and Slovianski) was launched with the idea of bringing together both language projects. Its initial purpose was merely to provide Slovio with a more Slavic grammar (for example, by substituting the adjective ending \\-ju *with* \\-ij *and the plural ending* \\-is *with* \\-i*), but gradually, it developed into a separate language project, widening its distance to Slovio and abandoning the Slovio dictionary in 2010\\. After Slovianski was reworked into* [Interslavic](/wiki/%23Interslavic \"#Interslavic\")*, Slovioski was discontinued.*#### Neoslavonic\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Vojtěch Merunka](/wiki/File:Vojt%C4%9Bch_Merunka_-_september_2019.jpg \"Vojtěch Merunka - september 2019.jpg\")\n[*Novoslovienskij*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Neoslavonic \"Interslavic#Neoslavonic\") (\"Neoslavonic\") was published in a 128\\-page book by the Czech pedagogue and programmer [Vojtěch Merunka](/wiki/Vojt%C4%9Bch_Merunka \"Vojtěch Merunka\") as a study of what [Old Church Slavonic](/wiki/Old_Church_Slavonic \"Old Church Slavonic\") might look like today if it had not stopped developing in the Middle Ages. As a result, Neoslavonic had a complex grammar characterized by various archaisms, for example: four types of past tense, [dual](/wiki/Dual_number \"Dual number\"), seven cases and the Cyrillic letter [ѣ](/wiki/%D1%A2 \"Ѣ\"), but on the other hand, it contained few exceptions and a relatively small number of repetitive rules. Neoslavonic could be written in four alphabets, [Latin](/wiki/Latin_alphabet \"Latin alphabet\"), [Cyrillic](/wiki/Cyrillic_alphabet \"Cyrillic alphabet\"), [Greek](/wiki/Greek_alphabet \"Greek alphabet\") and [Glagolitic](/wiki/Glagolitic_alphabet \"Glagolitic alphabet\"). \nExample:\nUvažimi gospodi!

I ask you to read it and send it to your friends if they want to see it.\"*### Contemporary pan\\-Slavic\n\nIn 2011, Slovianski was renamed Medžuslovjanski *(\"Interslavic\"), and its grammar and dictionary were revised to include all options of Neoslavonic and several older projects. A close collaboration was started between them, resulting in a common dictionary, a common news portal and a common wiki, and during the years to follow, Medžuslovjanski and Novoslovienskij (soon renamed* Novoslověnsky*) gradually grew closer to each other. As a result, most differences between both projects vanished in a natural way. After the first Conference on the Interslavic Language in 2017, Merunka and Van Steenbergen eliminated the last few remaining differences, and in the same year they published a unified grammar and orthography together, soon to be followed by a multilingual online dictionary covering English and most modern Slavic languages.[Interslavic dictionary](https://interslavic-dictionary.com/)* Medžuslovjansky jezyk *gained attention from the media and in 2019 came to be featured in the film* [The Painted Bird](/wiki/The_Painted_Bird_%28film%29 \"The Painted Bird (film)\")''.

The language was written in the Latin alphabet with a few unusual additions:* ſ *for* š*,* з *for* ž*,* ч *for* č*,* y *for* j*,* j *for* ť*,* θ *for* ď *and* ι *for* ň*.*The [Gospel of Matthew](/wiki/Gospel_of_Matthew \"Gospel of Matthew\"), 3:1–2:\nVe tamji dιa priideo Yan Krestar, kazaya na puſj ve zem Yudesk; i rekaya: Pokayaιiy nehaj vi чiιi, bo pribliзio sa carstviy nebesk.*\"In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the wilderness of Judea; and saying: Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.\"*#### Neposlava\n\n[thumb\\|right\\|180px\\|Vsevolod Cheshikhin (1865–1934\\)](/wiki/File:Brockhaus_and_Efron_Encyclopedic_Dictionary_B82_57-5.jpg \"Brockhaus and Efron Encyclopedic Dictionary B82 57-5.jpg\")\nNeposlava *was an unpublished project, created by the Russian writer, publicist and music critic [Vsevolod Yevgrafovich Cheshikhin](/wiki/Vsevolod_Yevgrafovich_Cheshikhin \"Vsevolod Yevgrafovich Cheshikhin\") (Всеволод Евграфович Чешихин) in [Nizhny Novgorod](/wiki/Nizhny_Novgorod \"Nizhny Novgorod\"), Russia. It was based on a system created by him in 1913 to construct zonal languages based on Esperanto affixes which are used with national roots and called it [Nepo](/wiki/dictionary:Nepo \"Nepo\"). According to that principle, he created Neposlava (\"Slavic Nepo\"), a Nepo\\-language based on Russian, Polish, Czech and Serbian lexicon, in 1915 or 1916\\. It is unknown how elaborated this language project really was. He also used this system to construct other \"new Esperantoes\" based on Latin\\-Romance and Germanic languages.*A fragment from the [Lord's Prayer](/wiki/Lord%27s_Prayer \"Lord's Prayer\"):\nVatero nia, kotoryja estas in la njebov, heiligia estu nomo via.*\"Our father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.\"*#### Mežduslavjanski jezik\n\nMežduslavjanski jezik *(\"Interslavic language\") was an elaborate project worked on during the years 1954–1958 in Czechoslovakia by a group of interlinguists, led by the poet Ladislav Podmele a.k.a. Jiří Karen (1920–2000\\) and the pedagogue Jaroslav Podobský (1895–1962\\), both of whom were prominent members of the [Occidental](/wiki/Interlingue \"Interlingue\") movement. Their idea was that four zonal languages (an [inter\\-Germanic](/wiki/Pan-Germanic_language \"Pan-Germanic language\"), an [inter\\-Romance](/wiki/Pan-Romance_language \"Pan-Romance language\"), an inter\\-Slavic and an inter\\-[Indic language](/wiki/Indo-Aryan_languages \"Indo-Aryan languages\")) together would enable two thirds of the world's population to communicate with each other. The language they created used grammatical and lexical features of various Slavic languages, primarily Russian and Czech, and may be viewed as a naturalistic [planned language](/wiki/Planned_language \"Planned language\"). They wrote a grammar (*Kratka grammatika mežduslavjanskego jezika*), an Esperanto–Interslavic word list, a dictionary, a course, a textbook and a few longer texts, practically none of which were ever published.Věra Barandovská\\-Frank, \"Lingvopolitiko kaj interslavismo de Ladislav Podmele\". In: *Grundlagenstudien aus Kybernetik und Geisteswissenschaft*, no. 54:4, December 2013, Akademia Libroservo, ISSN 0723\\-4899, pp. 176–189\\. Nevertheless, the project gained some attention of linguists from various countries.*An excerpt from the manuscript Revolucija v istoriji interlingvistiki*:*Do tego casu bila aktivnost za meždunarodni jezik osnovana na principach utopizma, jež ždal si jedinego jezika za ves mir bez vzgleda na fakt, cto taki jezik ne može bit v nikakim pripadu rezultatem realnego razvoja jezikov živich, cto on bude vsegda tolika vidumana, spekulativna konstrukcija.*\"To date, activity for an international language has been based on principles of utopianism, which endeavoured one language for the whole world without regard to the fact that such a language can in no way result from real development of living languages, that it wil always be an invented, speculative construction.\"*\n\n#### Slovio\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Mark Hučko](/wiki/File:Mark_Hu%C4%8Dko_2.jpg \"Mark Hučko 2.jpg\")\nOne of the first projects in the digital era was Slovio*, a project created in 1999 and published in 2001 by the Slovak Mark Hučko. Unlike previous projects, Slovio was not only intended to serve as a pan\\-Slavic language, but also to compete with languages like [Esperanto](/wiki/Esperanto \"Esperanto\") and [Ido](/wiki/Ido \"Ido\") as a global [international auxiliary language](/wiki/International_auxiliary_language \"International auxiliary language\"). Most of its vocabulary was based on Slavic roots, but its grammar was almost entirely based on Esperanto, with an emphasis on simplicity. Verb conjugations were regular apart from the four verbs* es *(\"be\"),* mozx *(\"can\"),* hce *(\"want\"),* dolzx *(\"must\"). Adjectives typically ended in* \\-ju*, the nouns formed their plural in* \\-s *or* \\-is*, and the only case was the accusative in* \\-f *or* \\-uf *(plural:* \\-fs *or \\-*ifs*). Slovio could be written in Latin or Cyrillic, but was typically written in Latin, with digraphs in* x *replacing the haček (e.g.* zx *for* ž*).*Slovio was the first Slavic\\-based constructed language with a substantial dictionary and a small user community, at its peak consisting of 10–15 users (mostly diaspora Slavs) and a number of interested bystanders. In spite of heavy marketing on the part of its creator, Slovio gained little support; it was heavily criticized for its artificial, un\\-Slavic character and the radical Slavic\\-nationalist views expressed by its users. Perhaps due to Hučko's insistence on owning the language and his hostile attitude towards proposed changes (similar to the situation with [Volapük](/wiki/Volap%C3%BCk \"Volapük\")), people interested in a pan\\-Slavic language moved on to other projects. It became defunct by about 2011\\.\nA passage on the origin of the Europeans (satirical example text and a translation):\nTo es bezsporju historju fakt zxe sovremju Europanis (negda imenitju Indo\\-Europanis) es potomkis om Dunavju Slavis (negda imenitju Dunavju Lesju Ludis). Odnakuo to es bezsporju fakt zxe vse Europju jazikas originijut iz odnakju jazika, jazika om Dunavju Slavis.*\"It's an undisputed historical fact that the current day Europeans (sometimes called Indo\\-Europeans) are all descendants of the Danubian Slavs (sometimes called the Danubian Forest People). Equally, it is an undisputed fact that all European languages originate from the same common language, the language of the Danubian Slavs.\"*#### Slovianski\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/File:Jan_van_steenbergen.jpg \"Jan van steenbergen.jpg\")\nTo address the problems of Slovio, a community\\-based project called [*Slovianski*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Slovianski \"Interslavic#Slovianski\") was begun in 2006\\. Its main purpose was to create a simple, naturalistic language that would be understandable to Slavs without prior learning*. This was approached with a voting system to choose words for the lexicon and a grammar consisting of material existing in all or most Slavic languages, without any artificial additions.Bojana Barlovac, [Creation of 'One Language for All Slavs' Underway](https://web.archive.org/web/20100221202058/http://www.balkaninsight.com/en/main/news/25946). BalkanInsight, 18 February 2010\\. Slovianski was developed in different versions. The version of its principal author, [Jan van Steenbergen](/wiki/Jan_van_Steenbergen \"Jan van Steenbergen\"), had three [genders](/wiki/Gender_%28grammar%29 \"Gender (grammar)\") (masculine, feminine, neuter), six [cases](/wiki/Case_%28grammar%29 \"Case (grammar)\") and full [conjugation](/wiki/Grammatical_conjugation \"Grammatical conjugation\") of verbs. A high level of simplification was achieved by means of simple, unambiguous endings and irregularity being kept to a minimum.*Slovianski was mostly used in Internet traffic and in a news letter, Slovianska Gazeta*.Алина Петропавловская, \\[. Европейский русский альянс, 23 June 2007\\. In 2012, the language was reported to have several hundreds of speakers.*\n\n[The Lord's Prayer](/wiki/The_Lord%27s_Prayer \"The Lord's Prayer\") in Slovianski:\nNaš otec, ktori jesi v nebah, da svečene je tvoje imeno, da prijde tvoje krolevstvo, da bude tvoja volia, kak v nebah tak i na zemie. Hleb naš každodenni daj nam tutden', i izvinij nam naše grehi, tak kak mi izvinime naših grešnikov, i ne vedij nas v pokušenie, ali spasij nas od zlogo. *\"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.\"*#### Slovioski\n\nIn 2009, [*Slovioski*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Slovioski \"Interslavic#Slovioski\") (a [portmanteau](/wiki/Portmanteau \"Portmanteau\") of Slovio and Slovianski) was launched with the idea of bringing together both language projects. Its initial purpose was merely to provide Slovio with a more Slavic grammar (for example, by substituting the adjective ending \\-ju *with* \\-ij *and the plural ending* \\-is *with* \\-i*), but gradually, it developed into a separate language project, widening its distance to Slovio and abandoning the Slovio dictionary in 2010\\. After Slovianski was reworked into* [Interslavic](/wiki/%23Interslavic \"#Interslavic\")*, Slovioski was discontinued.*#### Neoslavonic\n\n[thumb\\|180px\\|Vojtěch Merunka](/wiki/File:Vojt%C4%9Bch_Merunka_-_september_2019.jpg \"Vojtěch Merunka - september 2019.jpg\")\n[*Novoslovienskij*](/wiki/Interslavic%23Neoslavonic \"Interslavic#Neoslavonic\") (\"Neoslavonic\") was published in a 128\\-page book by the Czech pedagogue and programmer [Vojtěch Merunka](/wiki/Vojt%C4%9Bch_Merunka \"Vojtěch Merunka\") as a study of what [Old Church Slavonic](/wiki/Old_Church_Slavonic \"Old Church Slavonic\") might look like today if it had not stopped developing in the Middle Ages. As a result, Neoslavonic had a complex grammar characterized by various archaisms, for example: four types of past tense, [dual](/wiki/Dual_number \"Dual number\"), seven cases and the Cyrillic letter [ѣ](/wiki/%D1%A2 \"Ѣ\"), but on the other hand, it contained few exceptions and a relatively small number of repetitive rules. Neoslavonic could be written in four alphabets, [Latin](/wiki/Latin_alphabet \"Latin alphabet\"), [Cyrillic](/wiki/Cyrillic_alphabet \"Cyrillic alphabet\"), [Greek](/wiki/Greek_alphabet \"Greek alphabet\") and [Glagolitic](/wiki/Glagolitic_alphabet \"Glagolitic alphabet\"). \nExample:\nUvažimi gospodi! Tu jest projekt jezyka novoslovienskego. Prošu Vas, da byste jego čitali i poslali Vašim prijateljam, jako li oni hočut to vidieti.*\"Dear Sirs! Here is the Neoslavonic language project. I ask you to read it and send it to your friends if they want to see it.\"*### Contemporary pan\\-Slavic\n\nIn 2011, Slovianski was renamed Medžuslovjanski *(\"Interslavic\"), and its grammar and dictionary were revised to include all options of Neoslavonic and several older projects. A close collaboration was started between them, resulting in a common dictionary, a common news portal and a common wiki, and during the years to follow, Medžuslovjanski and Novoslovienskij (soon renamed* Novoslověnsky*) gradually grew closer to each other. As a result, most differences between both projects vanished in a natural way. After the first Conference on the Interslavic Language in 2017, Merunka and Van Steenbergen eliminated the last few remaining differences, and in the same year they published a unified grammar and orthography together, soon to be followed by a multilingual online dictionary covering English and most modern Slavic languages.[Interslavic dictionary](https://interslavic-dictionary.com/)* Medžuslovjansky jezyk *gained attention from the media and in 2019 came to be featured in the film* [The Painted Bird](/wiki/The_Painted_Bird_%28film%29 \"The Painted Bird (film)\")''. For the first time in history, a Pan\\-Slavic language received an ISO 639\\-3 code, with '' assigned for Interslavic in April 2024\\.\n", "See also\n--------\n\n* [Pan\\-Slavism](/wiki/Pan-Slavism \"Pan-Slavism\")\n* [Proto\\-Slavic](/wiki/Proto-Slavic \"Proto-Slavic\"), the common ancestor of all Slavic languages\n* [Army Slavic](/wiki/Army_Slavic \"Army Slavic\")\n* [Slavonic\\-Serbian](/wiki/Slavonic-Serbian \"Slavonic-Serbian\")\n* [Iazychie](/wiki/Iazychie \"Iazychie\")\n* [Lydnevi](/wiki/Lydnevi \"Lydnevi\")\n", "References\n----------\n\n", "External links\n--------------\n\n* [Vikisbornik – a collection of texts in Interslavic](https://isv.miraheze.org/wiki/Sbornik:Glavna_stranica)\n* [List of constructed Slavic languages](http://steen.free.fr/interslavic/constructed_slavic_languages.html)\n* [Interslavic – Medžuslovjansky](http://steen.free.fr/interslavic/)\n* [Interslavic information portal](http://interslavic-language.org/)\n* [Interslavic dictionary](http://www.interslavic.info)\n* [Neoslavonic](http://www.neoslavonic.org)\n* [Interslavic on\\-line newspaper](https://archive.today/20121219065933/http://izviestija.info/)\n* [Interslavic Wiki](https://isv.miraheze.org/)\n* [Neoslavonic Memorandum](http://www.neoslavonic.org/memorandum)\n\n[Category:Interlinguistics](/wiki/Category:Interlinguistics \"Interlinguistics\")\n[Category:Pan\\-Slavism](/wiki/Category:Pan-Slavism \"Pan-Slavism\")\n[Category:Slavic languages](/wiki/Category:Slavic_languages \"Slavic languages\")\n[Category:Zonal auxiliary languages](/wiki/Category:Zonal_auxiliary_languages \"Zonal auxiliary languages\")\n\n" ] }

As CR 2 approaches the interchange with the parkway, the road becomes narrower despite remaining four lanes wide. On the northwest corner of this interchange is the beginning of St. Johns Catholic Cemetery, where the road widens to accommodate a center left\\-turn lane. The northern border of the cemetery is along Edison Avenue, located near the intersection with Little East Neck Road in [Wyandanch](/wiki/Wyandanch%2C_New_York \"Wyandanch, New York\").\n\nCR 2 narrows to two lanes with stretches occasionally featuring medians.

An extension beyond NY 231 was proposed during the 1960s and 1970s and officially added to CR 2's alignment on June 22, 1961\\.

CR 15 was added to the county highway system on January 27, 1930 and is no longer recognized by the Suffolk County Department of Public Works nor the New York State Department of Transportation.\n\nMajor intersections\nThe entire route was in the [Community of Smithtown](/wiki/Smithtown_%28CDP%29%2C_New_York \"Smithtown (CDP), New York\").\n\n", "County Route 16\n---------------\n\n**County Route 16** is a county\\-maintained highway stretching from [NY 25](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_25 \"New York State Route 25\") in [Village of the Branch](/wiki/Village_of_the_Branch%2C_New_York \"Village of the Branch, New York\") eastward to [Montauk Highway](/wiki/Montauk_Highway \"Montauk Highway\") (CR 80\\) in [Brookhaven](/wiki/Brookhaven_%28CDP%29%2C_New_York \"Brookhaven (CDP), New York\") consisting of part of five roads: Terry Road, Smithtown Boulevard, Lake Shore Drive (formerly East Lake Terrace), Portion Road, and Horse Block Road. CR 16 has been in the Suffolk County highway system since January 27, 1930\\.\n\nThough CR 16 has run consistently from [the Town of Smithtown](/wiki/Smithtown%2C_New_York \"Smithtown, New York\") to [the Town of Brookhaven](/wiki/Brookhaven%2C_New_York \"Brookhaven, New York\") since the mid\\-1960s, this was not always the case. Many segments have been part of other county roads. Lake Shore Drive and Portion Road used to be part of [CR 19](/wiki/County_Route_19_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 19 (Suffolk County, New York)\") from the Smithtown–Brookhaven town line to Waverly Avenue in Farmingville. In 1960, this terminus was moved to Patchogue–Holbrook Road. The construction of Sunrise Highway in 1957 lead to the realignment of Horseblock Road west of its original eastern terminus with South Country Road (former [Montauk Highway](/wiki/Montauk_Highway \"Montauk Highway\")) in [South Haven](/wiki/South_Haven%2C_New_York \"South Haven, New York\"). Because the interchange is shared with [CR 21](/wiki/County_Route_21_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 21 (Suffolk County, New York)\"), the new alignment was originally designated as CR 21A. Horse Block Road used to be a western extension of [CR 56](/wiki/County_Route_56_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 56 (Suffolk County, New York)\") between Victory Avenue, a frontage road along Sunrise Highway that begins at [CR 46](/wiki/County_Route_46_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 46 (Suffolk County, New York)\"), in Brookhaven and Waverly Avenue in Farmingville. In 1964, it was moved only to Victory Avenue.\n\n", "County Route 17\n---------------\n\n**County Route 17** is a [county road](/wiki/County_road \"County road\") located in western Suffolk County. The route runs south\\-to\\-north from [NY 27A](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_27A \"New York State Route 27A\") in [East Islip](/wiki/East_Islip%2C_New_York \"East Islip, New York\") to [NY 111](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_111 \"New York State Route 111\") in [Hauppauge](/wiki/Hauppauge%2C_New_York \"Hauppauge, New York\"), just south of exit 56 on [I\\-495](/wiki/Interstate_495_%28New_York%29 \"Interstate 495 (New York)\") (the Long Island Expressway). Originally, CR 17 was an alignment of NY 111 (designated as State Highway 1208 internally). On September 13, 1966, the alignment was transferred from the state to Suffolk County and redesignated CR 17\\. The exit with the [Heckscher State Parkway](/wiki/Heckscher_State_Parkway \"Heckscher State Parkway\") was added in the early 1990s.\n\nRoute description\nThe NY 111 designation was moved from Carleton Avenue to Islip Avenue, which runs parallel to Carleton Avenue between NY 27A and I\\-495, on September 13, 1966, in order to facilitate access to the [Heckscher State Parkway](/wiki/Heckscher_State_Parkway \"Heckscher State Parkway\"). Evidence of County Road 17's former status as a State Highway can be found at the railroad bridge in Islip, which carries the [Montauk Line](/wiki/Montauk_Branch_%28LIRR%29 \"Montauk Branch (LIRR)\") of the Long Island Rail Road. Between then and the mid\\-to\\-late 1980s, CR 17 passed over the Heckscher State Parkway with no access, other than to nearby frontage roads that were used for residents. Exit 43A, linking CR 17 to the parkway, was built in the 1980s. Carleton Avenue also runs through the grounds of the former [Central Islip Psychiatric Center](/wiki/Central_Islip_Psychiatric_Center \"Central Islip Psychiatric Center\"). Nursing quarters were located on a frontage road along the west side of the street. The hospital was closed in 1990, and converted into a campus for the [New York Institute of Technology](/wiki/New_York_Institute_of_Technology \"New York Institute of Technology\"). The road was widened to four lanes in the 1990s from Heckscher Parkway to the northern terminus of the former hospital grounds. North of the NYIT Campus, Carleton Avenue squeezes through downtown Central Islip. The former [Central Islip railroad station](/wiki/Central_Islip_%28LIRR_station%29 \"Central Islip (LIRR station)\") was on the corner of the [Main Line](/wiki/Main_Line_%28Long_Island_Rail_Road%29 \"Main Line (Long Island Rail Road)\") of the [Long Island Rail Road](/wiki/Long_Island_Rail_Road \"Long Island Rail Road\") just south of [County Road 100](/wiki/County_Route_100_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 100 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Suffolk Avenue). A modernized station was built down the tracks on the corner of CR 100 and Lowell Avenue.\nNorth of Suffolk Avenue, CR 17 moves northwest onto Wheeler's Road. This section kept its given name while NY 111 was renamed \"Wheeler Road\" in order to distinguish the [state route](/wiki/State_route \"State route\") from CR 17\\. From there, CR 17 crosses [County Road 67](/wiki/County_Route_67_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 67 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (the [Long Island Motor Parkway](/wiki/Long_Island_Motor_Parkway \"Long Island Motor Parkway\")) and encounters Bridge Road, a side road that mainly runs parallel to Motor Parkway for much of its run south of the Long Island Expressway. The northern terminus is at a [fork in the road](/wiki/Fork_%28intersection%29 \"Fork (intersection)\") with NY 111 roughly 250 yards south of I\\-495\\. The NY 111/CR 17 intersection has quite a history. It was originally an at\\-grade interchange with an overhead expressway signpost holding two signs mounted on the corner that could be seen from the Long Island Expressway. The NY 111 shield was moved from one sign to the next in 1966, but the outline of the former NY 111 shield could still be seen on the original sign. Eventually, as the road was downgraded and the area developed, this sign came down. A [Texaco](/wiki/Texaco \"Texaco\") gas station was built at the fork in the road in the mid\\-1970s. It was shortly converted into a [Park and Ride](/wiki/Park_and_Ride \"Park and Ride\") for traffic from the Long Island Expressway.\n\nMajor intersections\n\n", "County Route 18\n---------------\n\n**County Route 18** was a county highway along Broadway Avenue from east of Sayville to Holbrook. It was an unsigned two\\-lane arterial spanning from [Montauk Highway](/wiki/Montauk_Highway \"Montauk Highway\") (CR 85\\) to [CR 19](/wiki/County_Route_19_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 19 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Patchogue–Holbrook Road). A former segment of Broadway Avenue called \"Old Broadway Avenue\" runs east of the segment between Montauk Highway and somewhere south of Sunrise Highway along the border of [Sans Soucci Lakes County Park](/wiki/Sans_Soucci_Lakes_County_Park \"Sans Soucci Lakes County Park\") and near a former [Girl Scouts of the USA](/wiki/Girl_Scouts_of_the_USA \"Girl Scouts of the USA\") camp. The route was added to the Suffolk County highway system on January 27, 1930\\.\n\nMajor intersections\n\n", "County Route 19\n---------------\n\n**County Route 19** is a south–north arterial through central Suffolk County. The highway begins at an intersection with [CR 65](/wiki/County_Route_65_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 65 (Suffolk County, New York)\") in [Patchogue](/wiki/Patchogue%2C_New_York \"Patchogue, New York\"). It connects several bedroom communities with major highways such as [I\\-495](/wiki/Interstate_495_%28New_York%29 \"Interstate 495 (New York)\") (the Long Island Expressway) and [NY 27](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_27 \"New York State Route 27\"). CR 19 terminates at an intersection with [CR 16](/wiki/County_Route_16_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 16 (Suffolk County, New York)\") in [Lake Ronkonkoma](/wiki/Lake_Ronkonkoma%2C_New_York \"Lake Ronkonkoma, New York\"). The route was added to the Suffolk County highway system on January 27, 1930, and was amended on January 29, 1965\\.\n\nRoute description\nThe highway's southern terminus is at [CR 65](/wiki/County_Route_65_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 65 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Division Street). It serves as a widened, upgraded version of local West Street, which continues south of Division Street toward the [Great South Bay](/wiki/Great_South_Bay \"Great South Bay\"). The starting point of the highway is immediately to the west of the [Long Island Rail Road](/wiki/Long_Island_Rail_Road \"Long Island Rail Road\")'s [Patchogue station](/wiki/Patchogue_%28LIRR_station%29 \"Patchogue (LIRR station)\"). The road heads north and crosses [Montauk Highway](/wiki/Montauk_Highway \"Montauk Highway\") just west of downtown [Patchogue](/wiki/Patchogue%2C_New_York \"Patchogue, New York\"). The road then curves west as it forms the southern bank of Great Patchogue Lake. Curving north again after passing the lake, the road assumes the name of Waverly Avenue, a pre\\-existing road that extends south of CR 19 toward Montauk Highway. Still with four lanes, the road passes near [Saint Joseph's College](/wiki/Saint_Joseph%27s_College%2C_New_York \"Saint Joseph's College, New York\")'s Patchogue branch campus before crossing [NY 27](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_27 \"New York State Route 27\") (Sunrise Highway). The diamond interchange here was built between 1988 and 1991 when NY 27 was converted from an urban boulevard to a limited\\-access freeway, although it was originally planned as a cloverleaf interchange.\\[Town of Brookhaven Zoning Map; August 21, 2000(and earlier)]\\[Hagstrom's Atlas of Suffolk County, New York (1969, and other dates)]\nLeaving the Patchogue area, the road curves slightly left, as Waverly Avenue (unsigned CR 61\\) leaves CR 19 and continues its north–south route. Just to the north, CR 19 (now Patchogue–Holbrook Road) intersects two more partial\\-limited access highways. [CR 99](/wiki/County_Route_99_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 99 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Woodside Avenue), which leads to the [IRS](/wiki/Internal_Revenue_Service \"Internal Revenue Service\") center at [Holtsville](/wiki/Holtsville%2C_New_York \"Holtsville, New York\"), has its terminus at CR 19 with a traffic signal. Less than a quarter mile to the north, [CR 97](/wiki/County_Route_97_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 97 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Nicolls Road) passes overhead and has a [diamond interchange](/wiki/Diamond_interchange \"Diamond interchange\") with CR 19\\. Now entering [Holbrook](/wiki/Holbrook%2C_New_York \"Holbrook, New York\"), the road divides various large bedroom communities. As it nears downtown Holbrook, the road moves onto a new alignment that was built between 1971 and 1973 to bypass the hamlet. After this bypass was built, the old section was renamed Main Street, eliminated between the new section and former [CR 18](/wiki/County_Route_18_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 18 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Broadway Avenue) and designated [CR 19A](/wiki/County_Route_19A_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 19A (Suffolk County, New York)\") (now a former route). The new alignment carries four lanes up and over the Long Island Rail Road's Main Line, and was intended to have an interchange with Union Avenue and Main Street. Reassuming its former alignment, CR 19 then crosses the [Long Island Expressway](/wiki/Long_Island_Expressway \"Long Island Expressway\") (I\\-495\\) with another diamond interchange. This interchange was the eastern terminus of the Long Island Expressway until 1971\\.\n\nAfter the Long Island Expressway interchange, the highway narrows to just two lanes with center turn lane. The road again takes an S\\-curve to the west before heading north again. Halfway within this S\\-curve, CR 19 was originally intended to terminate at the never built \"[MacArthur Airport](/wiki/Long_Island_MacArthur_Airport \"Long Island MacArthur Airport\") Expressway.\"Proposed Park and Ride Center; Lake Ronkonkoma (Suffolk County Department of Planning) The character of this northernmost portion of the road is quite different from the rest, as the road has a much lower speed limit and even passes through a school zone roughly a mile before the terminus at [CR 16](/wiki/County_Route_16_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 16 (Suffolk County, New York)\").\n\nHistory \nCR 19 originally included all of Waverly Avenue, including the portion designated as the unmarked CR 61\\. In 1965, it was realigned onto the new Patchogue\\-Holbrook Road. The road ran directly through \"downtown\" Holbrook until a realignment project taking place between 1971 and 1973\\.\n \n\nMajor intersections\n\n", "County Route 19A\n----------------\n\n**County Route 19A** was a former segment of CR 19 in Holbrook. When Patchogue–Holbrook Road was realigned, this section was named Main Street. The old alignment goes \"around\" Holbrook, which was realigned to carry four lanes up and over the Long Island Rail Road's Main Line, which was intended to have an interchange with Union Avenue and Main Street.\n\nMajor intersections\nThe entire route is in [Holbrook](/wiki/Holbrook%2C_New_York \"Holbrook, New York\").\n\n", "County Route 20\n---------------\n\n**County Route 20** was the unsigned designation for a portion of North Country Road from [NY 25A](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_25A \"New York State Route 25A\") in [Port Jefferson](/wiki/Port_Jefferson%2C_New_York \"Port Jefferson, New York\"), just north of the [railroad station](/wiki/Port_Jefferson_%28LIRR_station%29 \"Port Jefferson (LIRR station)\"), to an intersection with NY 25A in [Sound Beach](/wiki/Sound_Beach%2C_New_York \"Sound Beach, New York\"). CR 20 was added to the county highway system on January 27, 1930\\. Until the 1980s, it also included Sheep Pasture Road and Lower Sheep Pasture Road from [Stony Brook](/wiki/Stony_Brook%2C_New_York \"Stony Brook, New York\") to Port Jefferson.\n\nCR 20 was shared with [New York State Bicycle Route 25](/wiki/New_York_State_Bicycle_Route%C2%A025 \"New York State Bicycle Route 25\") east of Belle Terre Road in Port Jefferson,[State Bike Route 25 (Bicycling in New York; NYSDOT)](https://www.dot.ny.gov/portal/pls/portal/MEXIS_APP.DYN_BIKE_TRAIL_DETAIL_MAIN.show?p_arg_names=p_trail_id&p_arg_values=233) and ran through most of the [Miller Place Historic District](/wiki/Miller_Place_Historic_District \"Miller Place Historic District\").\n\nSheep Pasture Road\nSheep Pasture Road is an alternate route in [East Setauket](/wiki/East_Setauket%2C_New_York \"East Setauket, New York\") connecting [Stony Brook](/wiki/Stony_Brook%2C_New_York \"Stony Brook, New York\") to [Port Jefferson Station](/wiki/Port_Jefferson_Station \"Port Jefferson Station\"). For a small section it is broken up into Upper Sheep Pasture Road and Lower Sheep Pasture Road. Its main claim to fame is its name which at one time meant that there were sheep and pastures around in abundance but currently it is a heavily travelled artery and is almost all residential. The only sheep to be found are in a [petting zoo](https://web.archive.org/web/20110421070514/http://www.bennersfarm.com/BF%20Home/bfhome.html) about a mile north of the road on Gnarled Hollow Road. There are a few businesses closer to the eastern end in Port Jefferson Station. There is a picturesque bridge over the [Long Island Rail Road](/wiki/Long_Island_Rail_Road \"Long Island Rail Road\") track as it enters Port Jefferson Station. Unfortunately this bridge has been the scene of quite a few suicides in recent years by despondent youths. One of the largest [Greek Orthodox](http://www.kimisis.org/) church complexes on [Long Island](/wiki/Long_Island \"Long Island\") is on this road. It is the responsibility of [Brookhaven](/wiki/Brookhaven%2C_New_York \"Brookhaven, New York\") town to maintain this road.\nMajor intersections\n\n", "County Route 21\n---------------\n\n**County Route 21** is a two\\-lane, highway running from Brookhaven to Rocky Point. Its southern terminus is at [CR 80](/wiki/County_Route_80_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 80 (Suffolk County, New York)\") south of the interchange between [CR 16](/wiki/County_Route_16_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 16 (Suffolk County, New York)\") and [NY 27](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_27 \"New York State Route 27\") (which includes Yaphank Avenue in the interchange) in Brookhaven. The highway heads northward and terminates at an intersection with [NY 25A](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_25A \"New York State Route 25A\") in Rocky Point. CR 21 was added to the Suffolk County highway system on January 27, 1930\\.\n\nRoute description\nCR 21 ends at [CR 80](/wiki/County_Route_80_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 80 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Montauk Highway), although this portion of the road was severed when Sunrise Highway was built. For all intents and purposes as an uninterrupted route, CR 21 ends at [CR 16](/wiki/County_Route_16_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 16 (Suffolk County, New York)\") (Horseblock Road) in [Yaphank](/wiki/Yaphank%2C_New_York \"Yaphank, New York\"). The road continues through Yaphank, a formerly agrarian area that has been built up by [Suffolk County](/wiki/Suffolk_County%2C_New_York \"Suffolk County, New York\") into a government office center, which includes the [Suffolk County Police Department](/wiki/Suffolk_County_Police_Department \"Suffolk County Police Department\") headquarters, and one of the main county jails. In conjunction with the development of this zone, CR 21 was widened in the mid\\-1970s. This project included a bridge over the [Long Island Rail Road Main Line](/wiki/Main_Line_%28Long_Island_Rail_Road%29 \"Main Line (Long Island Rail Road)\") as well as some local streets, one of which leads directly to [Yaphank Station](/wiki/Yaphank_%28LIRR_station%29 \"Yaphank (LIRR station)\"). North of the tracks, the [Suffolk County Almshouse Barn](/wiki/Suffolk_County_Almshouse_Barn \"Suffolk County Almshouse Barn\") can be found west of the road, as well as the former Suffolk County Sanitorium, and other county government buildings. In this area, CR 21 also crosses [I\\-495](/wiki/Interstate_495_%28New_York%29 \"Interstate 495 (New York)\"), which was built through the existing road in the late 1960s. The interchange here was not finished until 2000, when a westbound on\\-ramp and an eastbound off\\-ramp were added.\nNorth of the Long Island Expressway, Yaphank Avenue runs on top of the dam for Lower Yaphank Lake before its terminus at East Main Street. Here the historic [Homan\\-Gerard House and Mills](/wiki/Homan-Gerard_House_and_Mills \"Homan-Gerard House and Mills\") can be found on the southeast corner, while the former Yaphank Garage can be found on the southwest corner. CR 21 makes a left turn at the intersection and proceeds through historic Yaphank. East Main Street leads to another historic Long Island road named Moriches–Middle Island Road, which took residents between Rocky Point and The Moricheses long before the automobile was invented, let alone the Suffolk County Highway System. Near Upper Yaphank Lake, CR 21 intersects with West Main Street, at one of two former Yaphank triangles (the other being at Mill Road and Patchogue–Yaphank Road). At this point, CR 21 resumes its northward heading. Also at this point, a former section of the road is visible on land now owned by the Suffolk County Parks Department. It is visible diagonally across the street from and north of a building formerly owned by [New York Telephone](/wiki/New_York_Telephone \"New York Telephone\").\n\nCR 21 meanders through a variety of landscapes as it heads north to [Middle Island](/wiki/Middle_Island%2C_New_York \"Middle Island, New York\"), including farmland and forest. It passes close to the [Carman's River](/wiki/Carmans_River \"Carmans River\") at this point, particularly in the area of Cathedral Pines County Park. This area was notorious as one of the most deadly stretches of the road until safety improvements realigned and modernized the roadway near East Bartlett Road and again north of Longwood Road. Another former section of road called Old Middle Island–Yaphank Road breaks off to the left near CR 21's intersection with [NY 25](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_25 \"New York State Route 25\"). North of NY 25, the name of the road changes from Yaphank–Middle Island Road to Rocky Point–Yaphank Road. The former alignment of the road continues roughly parallel to the newer road, rejoining it near the intersection of Bayliss Road (also known as Bailey Road). Additionally, a former meander in the road is visible on either side of CR 21 just south of Whiskey Road.\n\nBetween Middle Island and Rocky Point, much of CR 21 runs through the Rocky Point Natural Resources Management Area, a major conservation area on land once owned by the [Radio Corporation of America](/wiki/Radio_Corporation_of_America \"Radio Corporation of America\"). This land was once considered the world's largest radio transmitting field. Here, the road is given a second name of Marconi Boulevard. North of the former RCA Labs, CR 21 runs between a high school and a housing project, before terminating at [NY 25A](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_25A \"New York State Route 25A\"). North of NY 25A, the road turns into Hallock Landing Road as it heads towards the bluffs of the [Long Island Sound](/wiki/Long_Island_Sound \"Long Island Sound\").\n\nHistory\nCR 21 was added to the Suffolk County highway system on January 27, 1930, on various roads dating back to colonial times. A widening project took place along Yaphank Avenue during the 1970s but various realignments took place along Yaphank–Middle Island Road, and Rocky Point–Yaphank Road before then. Though CR 21 runs almost the entire breadth of Central Long Island, it does not intersect many major highways. Due to steep public opposition to highway improvements, there are multiple proposed and never\\-built highways that would have intersected this road:\n* [CR 99](/wiki/County_Route_99_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 99 (Suffolk County, New York)\") was supposed to be extended east of [CR 16](/wiki/County_Route_16_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 16 (Suffolk County, New York)\") terminating at an interchange with CR 21\\.\n* [CR 90](/wiki/County_Route_90_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 90 (Suffolk County, New York)\") was supposed to have an interchange with Yaphank Avenue near the Suffolk County Police Department Headquarters. This was to be part of the proposed [Central Suffolk Highway](/wiki/Central_Suffolk_Highway \"Central Suffolk Highway\") designed to reconnect the two broken ends of [NY 24](/wiki/New_York_State_Route_24 \"New York State Route 24\").\n* [CR 102](/wiki/County_Route_102_%28Suffolk_County%2C_New_York%29 \"County Route 102 (Suffolk County, New York)\") was a proposed upgrade of East Main Street east of CR 21\\.

It may also be collectively referred to as the **Satsuma dialect** ( or ), owing to both the prominence of the [Satsuma Province](/wiki/Satsuma_Province \"Satsuma Province\") and the region of the [Satsuma Domain](/wiki/Satsuma_Domain \"Satsuma Domain\") which spanned the former Japanese provinces of Satsuma, Ōsumi and the southwestern part of [Hyūga](/wiki/Hy%C5%ABga_Province \"Hyūga Province\"). The Satsugū dialect is commonly cited for its [mutual unintelligibility](/wiki/Mutual_intelligibility \"Mutual intelligibility\") to even its neighboring [Kyūshū variants](/wiki/Japanese_dialects%23Kyushu_Japanese \"Japanese dialects#Kyushu Japanese\"), prompting the [Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology](/wiki/Max_Planck_Institute_for_Evolutionary_Anthropology \"Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology\") to classify it as a distinct language in the Japanesic branch in its [Glottolog](/wiki/Glottolog \"Glottolog\") database. It shares over three\\-quarters of the Standard Japanese vocabulary corpus and some areal features of [Kyūshū](/wiki/Ky%C5%ABsh%C5%AB \"Kyūshū\").\n [thumb\\|220x124px \\| right \\| An example of Kagoshima dialect](/wiki/File:Kagoshima_dialect2020feb22.jpg \"Kagoshima dialect2020feb22.jpg\")\n\n", "Distribution and subdialects\n----------------------------\n\n[thumb\\|150px\\|**Traditional division:** \n■ Satsuma, ■ Ōsumi, ■ Morokata ■ Other \n(*Regions approximated*)](/wiki/File:Satsuma-Osumi-Morokata.svg \"Satsuma-Osumi-Morokata.svg\")\nThe boundaries of the Satsugū dialect are traditionally defined as the former region controlled by the [Satsuma Domain](/wiki/Satsuma_Domain \"Satsuma Domain\"), which primarily encompassed the main portion of the [Kagoshima Prefecture](/wiki/Kagoshima_Prefecture \"Kagoshima Prefecture\"), located in the southern part of Japan's [Kyushu](/wiki/Kyushu \"Kyushu\") Island, and a small part of the [Miyazaki Prefecture](/wiki/Miyazaki_Prefecture \"Miyazaki Prefecture\") to the East. For precision, this area could be further separated into three distinct branches of the Satsugū dialect: the *Satsuma dialect* spoken in western Kagoshima, the *Ōsumi dialect* spoken in eastern Kagoshima, and the *Morokata dialect* spoken in the southwesternmost part of the Miyazaki Prefecture.\n\nHowever, the dialectal differences are much more localized making this three\\-way distinction superficial. Variations in pronunciation, words, expressions and grammatical constructions may occur between neighboring cities, towns and villages, with peripheral islands exhibiting greater divergence due to isolation. As such, Satsugū may be considered a dialect continuum, differing only slightly between areas that are geographically close, and gradually decreasing in mutual intelligibility as the distances become greater. By this token, all major areas of the mainland—including Satsuma, Ōsumi, Morokata, and possibly also a small fraction of southern [Kumamoto](/wiki/Kumamoto_Prefecture \"Kumamoto Prefecture\")—may form a single, closely related dialect branch with no precise boundaries due to continuous contact between the regions. Conversely, the peripheral islands are easier to distinguish and seemingly form three distinct, but related clades associated with the proximity of the islands. These would be: the [Koshikijima Islands](/wiki/Koshikijima_Islands \"Koshikijima Islands\") to the West, the [Ōsumi Islands](/wiki/%C5%8Csumi_Islands \"Ōsumi Islands\") directly to the South (such as [Tanegashima](/wiki/Tanegashima \"Tanegashima\"), [Yakushima](/wiki/Yakushima \"Yakushima\"), and [Kuchinoerabu](/wiki/Kuchinoerabu_Island \"Kuchinoerabu Island\")), and the [Tokara Islands](/wiki/Tokara_Islands \"Tokara Islands\") in the very far South. The variants spoken on the [Amami Islands](/wiki/Amami_Islands \"Amami Islands\") are not considered part of the Satsugū dialect, but are rather part of the Northern [Ryukyuan language](/wiki/Ryukyuan_languages \"Ryukyuan languages\") branch.Shibatani (1990\\), pp. 192\\-194\n\nFurther subdivisions are possible for all areas, and a classification tree of the general Satsugū sub\\-dialects might look something like the following (areas in parentheses indicate approximate regions):\n\n* Satsugū (Southern [Kyushu](/wiki/Kyushu \"Kyushu\"))\n\t+ Mainland Kagoshima\n\t\t- [Satsuma](/wiki/Satsuma_Province \"Satsuma Province\") (Western Kagoshima)\n\t\t\t* Hokusatsu (North\\-Western Satsuma)\n\t\t\t\t+ [Izumi](/wiki/Izumi%2C_Kagoshima \"Izumi, Kagoshima\")\\-[Akune](/wiki/Akune%2C_Kagoshima \"Akune, Kagoshima\") (and surrounding areas)\n\t\t\t\t+ [Nagashima](/wiki/Nagashima%2C_Kagoshima \"Nagashima, Kagoshima\")\\-Shishijima\n\t\t\t* Central Satsuma (most of Kagoshima, especially in and around [Kagoshima City](/wiki/Kagoshima \"Kagoshima\"))\n\t\t\t* Southern Satsuma\n\t\t\t\t+ South [Satsuma Peninsula](/wiki/Satsuma_Peninsula \"Satsuma Peninsula\") ([Makurazaki](/wiki/Makurazaki%2C_Kagoshima \"Makurazaki, Kagoshima\"))\n\t\t\t\t+ Western [Ōsumi Islands](/wiki/%C5%8Csumi_Islands \"Ōsumi Islands\") (Kuroshima, Takeshima, [Iōjima](/wiki/I%C5%8Djima%2C_Kagoshima \"Iōjima, Kagoshima\"))\n\t\t- [Ōsumi](/wiki/%C5%8Csumi_Province \"Ōsumi Province\") (Eastern Kagoshima)\n\t\t- Morokata (South\\-Western [Miyazaki](/wiki/Miyazaki_Prefecture \"Miyazaki Prefecture\"))\n\t+ [Koshikijima Islands](/wiki/Koshikijima_Islands \"Koshikijima Islands\")\n\t\t- North (Kami\\-Koshikijima)\n\t\t- Central (Naka\\-Koshikijima)\n\t\t- South (Shimo\\-Koshikijima)\n\t+ Eastern [Ōsumi Islands](/wiki/%C5%8Csumi_Islands \"Ōsumi Islands\")\n\t\t- [Tanegashima](/wiki/Tanegashima \"Tanegashima\")\n\t\t\t* Northern Tanegashima ([Nishinoomote](/wiki/Nishinoomote%2C_Kagoshima \"Nishinoomote, Kagoshima\"))\n\t\t\t* Southern Tanegashima ([Nakatane](/wiki/Nakatane%2C_Kagoshima \"Nakatane, Kagoshima\"), [Minamitane](/wiki/Minamitane%2C_Kagoshima \"Minamitane, Kagoshima\"))\n\t\t- [Yakushima](/wiki/Yakushima%2C_Kagoshima \"Yakushima, Kagoshima\")\n\t\t\t* [Yakushima Island](/wiki/Yakushima \"Yakushima\")\n\t\t\t* [Kuchinoerabu Island](/wiki/Kuchinoerabu_Island \"Kuchinoerabu Island\")\n\t+ [Tokara Islands](/wiki/Tokara_Islands \"Tokara Islands\")\n\t\t- Northern Tokara ([Kuchinoshima](/wiki/Kuchinoshima \"Kuchinoshima\"), [Nakanoshima](/wiki/Nakanoshima \"Nakanoshima\"))\n\t\t- Central Tokara (Tairajima, [Suwanosejima](/wiki/Suwanosejima \"Suwanosejima\"))\n\t\t- Southern Tokara ([Takarajima](/wiki/Takarajima \"Takarajima\"))\n\t\t\n\n \n\n", "History\n-------\n\nHistorically, Satsuma had maintained an influential control over the trading routes that bounded the [Kyūshū](/wiki/Ky%C5%ABsh%C5%AB \"Kyūshū\") island to the [Ryukyu Islands](/wiki/Ryukyu_Islands \"Ryukyu Islands\"), [Mainland Japan](/wiki/Mainland_Japan \"Mainland Japan\") and by extension, the rest of the world. Its commercial importance to the rest of Japan was reflected in the adoption of such terms as *Satsuma imo* (sweet potato), *Satsuma yaki* (Satsuma styled pottery), and *Satsuma jisho* (Japanese\\-English dictionary). Similar terms such as [satsuma ware](/wiki/Satsuma_ware \"Satsuma ware\") and [satsuma](/wiki/Satsuma_%28fruit%29 \"Satsuma (fruit)\") (orange) were also, along with several words from the dialect itself such as [soy](/wiki/Soy \"Soy\") (Satsugū: そい\\~しょい ), later incorporated into the [English language](/wiki/English_language \"English language\").\n\nDuring the [Edo period](/wiki/Edo_period \"Edo period\"), the [Sakoku Edict of 1635](/wiki/Sakoku_Edict_of_1635 \"Sakoku Edict of 1635\") led to the strict seclusion of Japan from the outside world. However, the [Satsuma Domain](/wiki/Satsuma_Domain \"Satsuma Domain\"), which spanned the provinces of Satsuma, Ōsumi, and the southwestern part of [Hyūga](/wiki/Hy%C5%ABga_Province \"Hyūga Province\"), maintained trade relations with neighboring countries by using the [Ryukyu Islands](/wiki/Ryukyu_Islands \"Ryukyu Islands\") as a conduit, and by advocating that the islands distinctively formed an independent kingdom, even though in reality the Satsuma Domain had conquered the [Ryūkyū Kingdom](/wiki/Ry%C5%ABky%C5%AB_Kingdom \"Ryūkyū Kingdom\") in 1609\\. The [invasion of Ryukyu](/wiki/Invasion_of_Ryukyu \"Invasion of Ryukyu\") had assured Satsuma's place as one of the most powerful feudal domains in [Tokugawa Japan](/wiki/Edo_period \"Edo period\"), and would also set a precedent for Satsuma as a vital role in later overthrowing the [Tokugawa shogunate](/wiki/Tokugawa_shogunate \"Tokugawa shogunate\") and initiating the [Meiji Restoration](/wiki/Meiji_Restoration \"Meiji Restoration\").\n\nIn the Fall of 1729, a ship from Satsuma bound for the province of [Osaka](/wiki/Osaka \"Osaka\") drifted off course and ended up landing at [Cape Lopatka](/wiki/Cape_Lopatka \"Cape Lopatka\"), in [Russia](/wiki/Russia \"Russia\").\\* \n \n \n * + - Upon arrival, the crew were attacked by a group of [cossacks](/wiki/Cossacks \"Cossacks\") led by Andreï Chtinnikov. Out of seventeen members, only two survived: a trader named Soza, and the pilot's son and apprentice, [Gonza](/wiki/Gonza \"Gonza\"). The two were sent across the country to the capital of [Saint Petersburg](/wiki/Saint_Petersburg \"Saint Petersburg\"), where they were received in audience by Empress [Anna Ivanovna](/wiki/Anna_of_Russia \"Anna of Russia\"), and later baptized in the [Russian Orthodox Church](/wiki/Russian_Orthodox_Church \"Russian Orthodox Church\"). They went on afterwards to teach Japanese, and helped establish the first Japanese\\-language school in Russia. Gonza, who was also fluent in Russian, wrote and edited a number of books about the Japanese language, using the [Cyrillic alphabet](/wiki/Cyrillic_alphabet \"Cyrillic alphabet\") to transliterate words. These transliterations provide not only the oldest record of the Satsugū dialect, but have also been cited for their comprehensive evidence of the history, phonology and variability of the Japanese language.\n\n[left\\|thumb\\|100px\\|The flag of the Satsuma Domain](/wiki/Image:Flag_of_Satsuma_domain.svg \"Flag of Satsuma domain.svg\")\nWhen Japan started slowly opening up to the rest of the world in the mid 19th century, Satsuma was one of the first domains to embrace Western culture and methods. However, tension quickly grew between the increasing invasiveness of Westerners in southern Japan. When the [Namamugi Incident](/wiki/Namamugi_Incident \"Namamugi Incident\") of September 14, 1862 occurred, political and ideological differences between the [United Kingdom](/wiki/United_Kingdom \"United Kingdom\") and [Satsuma Province](/wiki/Satsuma_Province \"Satsuma Province\") sparked outrage and quickly boiled into the [Anglo\\-Satsuma War](/wiki/Bombardment_of_Kagoshima \"Bombardment of Kagoshima\"). Satsuma would ultimately lose, leaving way to increasing dissatisfaction with the Tokugawan government. The [Meiji government](/wiki/Meiji_government \"Meiji government\") would then take its place after the Tokugawan government was overthrown in the [Boshin War](/wiki/Boshin_War \"Boshin War\"). However, corruption in the Meiji government, which it originally helped establish, would then give birth to the [Satsuma Rebellion](/wiki/Satsuma_Rebellion \"Satsuma Rebellion\") of 1877\\. Despite their numbers, the Satsuma Domain was rapidly overpowered, and its defeat eventually resulted in the end of its dominance in Japan's southern sphere. The Satsugū dialect, which had a predominant role in [samurai](/wiki/Samurai \"Samurai\") affairs and equally the police hierarchy system throughout Japan, steadily declined in influence following this defeat.\n\nIn July 1871, the [Japanese domain system](/wiki/Han_%28administrative_division%29 \"Han (administrative division)\") was abolished. The region of the Satsuma Domain mostly became part of the [Kagoshima Prefecture](/wiki/Kagoshima_Prefecture \"Kagoshima Prefecture\"), while a small portion of its northeastern region was incorporated into the [Miyazaki Prefecture](/wiki/Miyazaki_Prefecture \"Miyazaki Prefecture\"). The abolition of the domain system also brought forth standardized education. However, as Kagoshima was already an uncontested part of mainland Japan, assimilation through education was not a priority as it had been in [Okinawa](/wiki/Okinawa_Prefecture \"Okinawa Prefecture\"). Though contrary to Okinawa, the [Satsuma clan](/wiki/Shimazu_clan \"Shimazu clan\") sought to preserve the uniqueness of its own dialect. As such, the Satsugū dialect persisted.\n\nWhen the [United States](/wiki/United_States \"United States\") later took control of Japan's South in [World War II](/wiki/World_War_II \"World War II\"), Japanese officials tactically sought to exploit Kagoshima's more northern position, its advancement in shipping technology, and most notably the Satsugū dialect's mutual unintelligibility as a method of [cryptographic communication](/wiki/Cryptography \"Cryptography\") between Japan and Germany. Dozens of international phone calls had been made using the Satsugū dialect, and despite being able to eavesdrop on the conversations being sent back and forth, the United States was unable to determine the language spoken. The use of the Satsugū dialect to further obfuscate communication during both the Second World War and possibly the period of the earlier Satsuma Domain has led to a popular belief that Satsugū was created as an [artificial language](/wiki/Artificial_language \"Artificial language\") and promoted for the purpose of being unintelligible in order to thwart enemy spies.\n\n", "Current status\n--------------\n\nLike other Japanese regional dialects, the traditional dialects of Kagoshima are now being displaced by standard Japanese as a consequence of standardized education and centralized media, especially among the younger generation. As a result, many of the features that so characterize the dialects are now disappearing. In terms of phonology, for example, the palatalized variant of the vowel is now being phased out, as is the retention of the labialized consonants . More prominently, many of the phonological processes, such as [vowel coalescence](/wiki/%23Vowel_coalescence \"#Vowel coalescence\") and [high vowel deletion](/wiki/%23High-vowel_deletion \"#High-vowel deletion\"), as well as most grammatical constructions and words that are unique to these dialects, are being completely uprooted by their standard forms.\n\nDespite this, many popular words and expressions continue to persist today, even among younger speakers. Examples pulled from a research survey include \"please do your best\", \"thank you for your work\", \"older brother\", \"shy\", and \"exactly\", among numerous others. The same research also revealed through interviews that, while people generally felt a positive vibe to hearing the traditional dialect spoken, those under the age of 40 expressed some difficulty understanding. One woman in her sixties was quoted saying: \"There are now very few people who can use the true dialect\".\n\nEfforts to document the dialects or promote them through cultural means are few, though some notable dictionaries on the mainland Kagoshima dialect have been published, such as the , while others can be accessed online. A few [manga](/wiki/Manga \"Manga\") written in an admixture of the dialect and standard Japanese, such as and by have also been published.\n\n", "Phonology\n---------\n\n### Vowels\n\n| | Front | Central | Back |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Close | | | |\n| Mid | | | |\n| Open | | | |\n\nAll of the Kagoshima dialects contrast the following five vowels: , , , and . In terms of pronunciation, the Kagoshima dialects pattern with other far\\-western Honshu and Kyushu dialects, wherein the [close back vowel](/wiki/Close_back_rounded_vowel%23Close_back_compressed_vowel \"Close back rounded vowel#Close back compressed vowel\") is slightly more rounded than in Tokyo Japanese.Shibatani (1990\\), p.161 Additionally, the [mid front unrounded vowel](/wiki/Mid_front_unrounded_vowel \"Mid front unrounded vowel\") differs from standard Japanese in that it retains the [Late Middle Japanese](/wiki/Late_Middle_Japanese \"Late Middle Japanese\") variation between palatalized and unpalatalized . The palatalization may spread to the previous consonant, so that the syllables might vary between and . This is similar to the palatalization observed with the vowel : . In Tanegashima, the [mid back vowel](/wiki/Close-mid_back_rounded_vowel \"Close-mid back rounded vowel\") still exhibits rounding in some words such as *io* \"fish\" or *shio* \"salt\".\n\nVowel length remains contrastive in all regional dialects, but is noticeably less prominent and sometimes ambiguous in the mainland as a result of a process of [vowel length reduction](/wiki/%23Vowel_length_reduction \"#Vowel length reduction\"). Should historically short, high vowels be shown to devoice rather than delete following sibilant consonants, then dialects of the mainland may effectively contrast the devoiced vowels and with their non\\-devoiced counterparts and , which arose from historically long vowels.\n\nIn comparison to standard Japanese, co\\-occurring vowel sequences tend to fuse into a single vowel, giving rise to a complex system of [vowel coalescence](/wiki/%23Vowel_coalescence \"#Vowel coalescence\") in all regional dialects. In the dialect of [Takarajima](/wiki/Takarajima \"Takarajima\") exceptionally, the sequences , and have not merged into as in other regions, but have instead centralized to and . The vowel tends to result from a fusion of , while usually stems from the fusion of or . Neither of these two coalesced vowels trigger palatalization, consider, for example: \"siblings\" (not ). The vowel is also unique in this dialect in that it may trigger the labialization of the consonant to , as in \"ash\".\n\n### Consonants\n\n[thumb\\|right\\|300px\\|Conflation of the *[yotsugana](/wiki/Yotsugana \"Yotsugana\")* syllables throughout Japan. Kagoshima falls in the purple area where all four syllables are still mostly distinguished.

Before and palatalized , these sounds are [alveolo\\-palatal](/wiki/Alveolo-palatal \"Alveolo-palatal\") () and before they are alveolar (). In terms of the latter, the distinction between all four of the traditional syllables , , and is still preserved within the Kyūshū portion of Kagoshima. Here, they are contrastively realized as , , and . In respect to high vowel deletion, the pairs ヂ and ヅ act as obstruents rather than fricatives, as indicated through their underlying representations and . In parts of northern Koshikijima exceptionally, the sounds contrast with : \"song.DAT\" vs \"song.TOP\" vs \"hit.TOP\".\n\nThe flap consonant is generally an [apical](/wiki/Apical_consonant \"Apical consonant\") postalveolar flap with undefined [laterality](/wiki/Lateral_consonant \"Lateral consonant\"). In word medial and final position, is frequently rendered as a glide (see [sonorant gliding](/wiki/%23Sonorant_gliding \"#Sonorant gliding\") below). It may also be subject to fortition, merging into in initial position, while occasionally shifting to or in medial position, especially if preceded by a devoiced syllable. Examples of fortition include → \"ease\", → \"next year\", → \"interesting; amusing\", and → (pronounced ) \"cooking\".\n\nThe fricative consonant is pronounced as a [voiceless bilabial fricative](/wiki/Voiceless_bilabial_fricative \"Voiceless bilabial fricative\") before the vowel , and may vary from a [voiceless palatal fricative](/wiki/Voiceless_palatal_fricative \"Voiceless palatal fricative\") to a [voiceless alveolo\\-palatal fricative](/wiki/Voiceless_alveolo-palatal_fricative \"Voiceless alveolo-palatal fricative\") before the vowel , effectively merging with in this position. Curiously, the sibilant consonant has a tendency to [debuccalize](/wiki/Debuccalization \"Debuccalization\") to in word medial position before the low vowel , and more commonly before the high vowel in all positions. Examples of this include *\\-han* for *\\-san* (negative 'su' ending), *kagohima* for Kagoshima, *gowahi* for *gowashi* (copula), *sahikabui* for *sashikabui* \"long time no see\", etc.\n\nThe labialized velar consonants and have limited use, contrasting and almost solely before the vowel . For example, \"conflagration\" contrasts \"housework\". Nowadays, however, these sounds are in regression and younger speakers merge them with their non\\-labialized counterparts as in standard Japanese. So words like \"hoe\", \"sweets\", \"useless\" and \"[Goddess of Mercy](/wiki/Guanyin \"Guanyin\")\" are now increasingly being pronounced , , and . Though uncommon, other sequences such as , , and may occur through contraction of to . For example, the imperative form of \"eat\", which is in standard Japanese, becomes in the dialect, which contrasts both \"landslide\" (pronounced ) and \"shellfish\". They may also surface in a few onomatopoeic words, such as \"[woof woof](/wiki/Bark_%28utterance%29 \"Bark (utterance)\")\". In parts of Southern Satsuma and Tanegashima, may allophonically be realized as , so that \"eat.\" may be pronounced as , and Tanegashima \"thorn\" becomes .\n\n#### Placeless consonants\n\nThe [archiphonemes](/wiki/Archiphoneme \"Archiphoneme\") and can also be represented by the [uvular nasal](/wiki/Uvular_nasal \"Uvular nasal\") and the [glottal stop](/wiki/Glottal_stop \"Glottal stop\") . Both of these phonemes derive from a single process consisting of deleting the point of articulation of a given syllable, both correspond to a full [mora](/wiki/Mora_%28linguistics%29 \"Mora (linguistics)\"), and both undergo a variety of [assimilatory](/wiki/Assimilation_%28linguistics%29 \"Assimilation (linguistics)\") processes.\n\nAs with standard Japanese, the place of articulation of the moraic nasal , which corresponds to a reduced nasal syllable, is determined by the following consonant. Contrary to standard Japanese, however, the moraic nasal may also surface in word\\-initial position, as in the expression \"wow!\" or the word \"horse\".\n\nSimilarly, the moraic obstruent corresponds to a reduced stop syllable. Contrary to the standard language, the moraic obstruent may occur word medially before any other sound except the moraic nasal. It may also occur in word\\-final position, which means that its phonetic realization cannot be immediately determined within the lexical unit. Like the moraic nasal, its place of articulation is mostly determined by the following consonant. Before other stops and fricatives, it assimilates, creating an effect of gemination. Before nasal syllables, the moraic obstruent may be realized, depending on the regional dialect, as a [glottal stop](/wiki/Glottal_stop \"Glottal stop\") , so that \"fox\" is pronounced . Other dialects exhibit gemination in this position, so that the latter is pronounced instead. At the end of utterances and in isolation, the moraic obstruent is predictably realized as a glottal stop , which may also suggest that a parallelism exists between the glottal stop in interjections and the moraic obstruent in standard Japanese itself.\n\nIn some regions of Kagoshima such as Uchinoura, a third archiphoneme is described. is generally pronounced and historically stems from a reduction of the syllables , , and in non\\-word initial position. For example, in Uchinoura, became \"daughter\", became \"grilling on a skewer\", and became \"conflagration\".\n\n### Phonological processes\n\n#### Vowel coalescence\n\n[Vowel coalescence](/wiki/Vowel_coalescence \"Vowel coalescence\") or vowel fusion is a phonological process by which two consecutive vowels merge into a single one. For example, in most Japanese dialects including that of [Tokyo](/wiki/Tokyo_dialect \"Tokyo dialect\"), the sequence of results in the [monophthong](/wiki/Monophthong \"Monophthong\") : → \"tall\". Similarly, the Kagoshima dialects have also undergone a process of vowel coalescence. However, unlike dialects like that of Tokyo, the process is much more pervasive in Kagoshima, to the extent that nearly all vowel sequences exhibit some form of fusion.\n\nFor instance, vowel coalescence systematically occurs with the vowel followed by , so that \"ash\" and \"shellfish\" become and respectively. Likewise, followed by results in the , so that \"come\" is becomes as well. A sentence such as \"Come buy shellfish\" would thus become , which, due to [vowel length reduction](/wiki/%23Vowel_length_reduction \"#Vowel length reduction\"), is pronounced entirely as in mainland Kagoshima.\n\nIt also occurs with the vowel followed by , so that \"(to become) red\" and \"buy\" become and respectively. Other mergers include → , → , → , → , among numerous others that can be summarized in the following table, where the *y*\\-axis denotes the first vowel and the *x*\\-axis the second:\n\n| \\+ Table of vowel mergers in Kagoshima |\n| --- |\n| | | | | | |\n| | | | | , | |\n| | | | | | |\n| | | | | , | |\n| | , | | | | |\n| | | | , | | |\n\nDespite the extent of this sound change, the Kagoshima dialects are not devoid of co\\-occurring vowels due to other, subsequent sound changes that have taken place in the dialects. As an example, \"this\" exists and is not reduced to because it historically comes from .\n\n#### High\\-vowel deletion\n\nIn Kagoshima's mainland, the high vowels and are systematically dropped in word final position after a non\\-[fricative](/wiki/Fricative_consonant \"Fricative consonant\") consonant. The remaining consonant is syllabified into coda position, where it is reduced to a [moraic obstruent](/wiki/Japanese_phonology%23Moraic_obstruent \"Japanese phonology#Moraic obstruent\") if [oral](/wiki/Oral_consonant \"Oral consonant\"), or a [moraic nasal](/wiki/Japanese_phonology%23Moraic_nasal \"Japanese phonology#Moraic nasal\") if [nasal](/wiki/Nasal_consonant \"Nasal consonant\"). In the case of the [palatal approximant](/wiki/Palatal_approximant \"Palatal approximant\") , it is reduced to its corresponding high vowel .\n\n| Standard Japanese | [Underlying form](/wiki/Underlying_representation \"Underlying representation\") | Surface realization | Meaning |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| | | | ear |\n| | | | to bite |\n| | | | dog |\n| | | | neck |\n| | | | nail |\n| | | | shoes |\n| | | | dew |\n| | | | soy sauce |\n\nWord\\-medially, a syllable containing the high vowels and may also be reduced to its respective moraic equivalent if not already followed by a moraic obstruent or nasal. In this way, the town of [Matsumoto](/wiki/Matsumoto%2C_Kagoshima \"Matsumoto, Kagoshima\") is realized as , the village of Shikine as , the noun *skin boil* as and the adjective *painful* as . The assimilatory processes of a given regional dialect are then applied, so that \"skin boil\" is pronounced , and \"painful\" may become either or . With regards to the latter, the difference may be marked in writing, so that for , the pronunciation is written as , whereas is written as .\n\nA similar effect to high vowel deletion can be observed with sibilants. Namely, the high vowels and will be devoiced to and respectively following a sibilant consonant such as or , and may be deleted entirely especially in word\\-final position. This has an effect of weakening the syllables within which they are contained, causing them to have no effect on [pitch](/wiki/Pitch_accent \"Pitch accent\") in the same way as both the moraic nasal and obstruent do not. Devoicing or deletion of high vowels can also trigger devoicing of the fricative , so that \"conflagration\" is pronounced or . Occasionally, such syllables may dropped entirely, leaving behind an assimilatory trace like the moraic obstruent. For example, the name [Kagoshima](/wiki/Kagoshima_Prefecture \"Kagoshima Prefecture\") itself may be subject to this phenomenon, resulting in or instead of . Conflictingly, however, the [sibilant consonant](/wiki/Sibilant_consonant \"Sibilant consonant\") followed by may instead merge with or be dropped entirely, leading to the added pronunciations and .\n\n#### Sonorant gliding\n\nSonorant gliding is a phonological process whereby the sonorant syllables , and are reduced to the high vowel in word medial or final position. When followed by another vowel, the may turn into a palatal glide .\n\n| Standard Japanese | Kagoshima | Meaning |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| | | round |\n| | | ball |\n| | | rare |\n| | | I, me |\n| | | This, that, that over there |\n| | | Car, vehicle |\n| | | Grateful, thankful |\n| | | To be involved in |\n\nNote that, when it comes to the syllable , this sound change is mostly limited to the nominal rather than verbal paradigm, where the flap becomes a moraic obstruent instead (e.g. → ).\n\n#### Vowel length reduction\n\nToday, the dialects of mainland Satsuma and Ōsumi can be described as lacking [compensatory vowel lengthening](/wiki/Compensatory_lengthening \"Compensatory lengthening\"), so that two vowels which coalesce into one will be short rather than long.\n\n| Standard Japanese | Tokyo Japanese | Tanegashima | Satsuma\\-Ōsumi | Meaning |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| | | | | Radish |\n| | | | | Usually |\n\nHowever, it would be more accurate to say that the mainland dialects exhibited vowel length reduction, so that long vowels such as later shortened to . This accounts for the reason as to why certain words such as \"yesterday\" or \"[torii](/wiki/Torii \"Torii\")\", which are and in standard Japanese, are not subject to high vowel deletion or sonorant gliding, while \"silk\" and \"bird\", which are and in standard Japanese, are. It also accounts for the discrepancy between forms when particles are attached to words, such as こい \"this\", which derives from the historical form ; versus \"this.\", which derives from , a fusion of \"this\" and the [dative](/wiki/Dative_case \"Dative case\") particle .\n\n#### Other changes\n\nNumerous other, less consistent changes have affected many of the regional dialects in Kagoshima. Some of these include:\n\n* Historical vowel raising of the short vowel to following alveolar consonants in non\\-word\\-initial position:\n\t+ → (→ ) \"thing; matter\"\n\t+ → (→ ) \"play\"\n\t+ → \"over there\"\n* Historical vowel raising of the short vowel to following nasal consonants in word\\-final position, and subsequent reduction of the syllable to a moraic nasal in most Kagoshima dialects:\n\t+ → → \"thing; person\"\n\t+ → → \"plural suffix\"\n* Reduction of the sequence to , or less commonly :\n\t+ → (→ ) \"river; well\"\n\t+ → (→ ) \"river; well\"\n* Depalatalization of the sequences and , especially in mainland Kagoshima:\n\t+ → → \"soy sauce\"\n\t+ → \"doctor\"\n\t+ → \"cute\"\n* Intervocalic voicing of plosive consonants in southern Satsuma, notably in [Makurazaki City](/wiki/Makurazaki%2C_Kagoshima \"Makurazaki, Kagoshima\"):\n\t+ → \"man\"\n\t+ → \"cherry blossom\"\n\n### Phonotactics\n\nThe syllable structure of the Kagoshima dialects is more complex than that of standard Japanese and can minimally be represented by the formula (C2)(G)V2(P), where C2 represents a consonant or cluster of two consonants, G represents a glide, V2 represents a vowel or sequence of vowels and P represents any placeless consonant.\n\n| | Component | Details |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Onset (*optional*) | Consonant2 | Any consonant or cluster of two consonants. Permissible clusters vary by region, but are largely limited to fricative\\-stop clusters such as and . |\n| Glide | Only the palatal glide falls in this category. |\n| Nucleus (obligatory) | Vowel2 | Any vowel, long vowel or sequence of vowels. |\n| Coda (*optional*) | Placeless | Any placeless consonant, including , and . |\n\nThe above formula accounts for nearly all permissible syllable structures, with only one exception which is that and can constitute full syllables on their own, found primarily only in word\\-initial position.\n\nThe following table illustrates some of the different types of syllables that are allowed in the Kagoshima dialects.\n\n| Syllable structure | Example word |\n| --- | --- |\n| V | 大 \"large, great\" |\n| VV | 蟻 \"ant\" |\n| CVV | そい \"that\" |\n| CCV | () 人 \"person\" |\n| CGV | 今日 \"today\" |\n| CVP | 火事 \"conflagration\" |\n| CGVP | 軍鶏 \"game fowl\" |\n| NN (\\+ CV) | 馬 \"horse\" |\n\n### Prosody\n\n[thumb\\|300px\\|right\\|Map of the pitch accent systems throughout Japan. Most of Kagoshima falls into the South\\-Western Kyushu two\\-pattern accent group (■ ).](/wiki/File:Japanese_pitch_accent_map-ja.png \"Japanese pitch accent map-ja.png\")\n\n#### Kagoshima accent\n\nOne of the most oft\\-studied aspects of the Kagoshima dialect is its prosodic system. With the exception of a few areas such as Tanegashima, the system is described as a two\\-pattern pitch accent in which phrasal units may be either accented or unaccented. In accented units (also called \"Type A\" tone\\-bearing units), all syllables bear a low tonal pitch (\"L\") except for the penultimate syllable, which bears a high pitch (\"H\"). In unaccented units (also called \"Type B\" tone\\-bearing units), all syllables bear a low pitch until the final syllable, at which point the pitch rises to a high pitch.\n\n| \\+ Tone placement in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 1 syllable | **(H)L** or \"spirit\" | **H** \"tree\" |\n| 2 syllables | **HL** \"nose\" | **LH** \"flower\" |\n| 3 syllables | **LHL** \"longish\" | **LLH** \"scene\" |\n\n* In accented words with only one syllable, the pitch is described as falling (sometimes written \"F\"). This is because the vowel is subject to lengthening, where the first mora in the syllable will bear a high tone while the second mora will bear a low tone. This means that \"spirit\" would be pronounced like and have a high\\-low (HL) pitch, as if it were a two\\-syllable word. This vowel length disappears when the word is followed by other morphemes such as particles.\n\nAlthough the type of pitch accent is lexically determined, it is more specifically determined by the first element in a syntactic phrase and will apply to that entire phrase. This effectively means that the placement of the high tone in accented or unaccented units will shift rightwards to the penultimate or final syllable of the phrase when other morphemes, auxiliaries or grammatical particles such as are appended at the end.\n \n * + \n\n| \\+ Tone shifting in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 1 → 2 syllables | **HL**気が \"spirit \" | **LH**木が \"tree \" |\n| 2 → 3 syllables | **LHL**鼻が \"nose \" | **LLH**花が \"flower \" |\n| 3 → 4 syllables | **LLHL**長めが \"longish \" | **LLLH**眺めが \"scene \" |\n\nBecause the accent pattern is always determined by the first element of the phrasal unit, prefixes will alter the accent type of the word to which they attach. For example, \"temple\" and are normally accented, but when the honorific prefix *o\\-* is added, they shift to an unaccented pattern: and .\n\nNote that the high tone falls on the syllable rather than the [mora](/wiki/Mora_%28linguistics%29 \"Mora (linguistics)\"), so tone placement remains unaffected by moraic obstruents, moraic nasals, fricatives resulting from devoicing, long vowels and diphthongs.\n\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Moraic Nasal | \"stubbornness\" → | \"[Obon Festival](/wiki/Bon_Festival \"Bon Festival\")\" → |\n| Moraic Obstruent | \"one's convenience\" → | \"adzuki\\-bean mochi\" → |\n| Devoiced fricative | \"glass\" → | \"crow\" → |\n| Vowel | \"car\" → | \"passing through\" → |\n\n#### Makurazaki accent\n\nThe Makurazaki dialect, spoken in and around [Makurazaki City](/wiki/Makurazaki%2C_Kagoshima \"Makurazaki, Kagoshima\"), is described as a two\\-pattern pitch accent system very similar to that of the Kagoshima accent. In this dialect, accented units bear a high tone on all syllables except the penultimate syllable, which bears a low pitch. In unaccented units, all syllables have a high pitch except the final syllable, which bears a middle pitch (\"M\").\n\n| \\+ Tone placement in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 1 syllable | **H** \"day\" | **M** \"fire\" |\n| 2 syllables | **LH** \"nose\" | **HM** \"flower\" |\n| 3 syllables | **HLH** \"cherry blossom\" | **HHM** \"man\" |\n| 4 syllables | **HHLH** \"weft\" | **HHHM** \"morning glory\" |\n\n* The tone of unaccented words with one syllable has also been described as \"falling\", but it is not clear whether this manifests itself as vowel lengthening similar to accented words in the Kagoshima accent.\n\nLike mainland Kagoshima, the accent type is determined by the first element in the phrasal unit and the pitch will shift accordingly as other morphemes are added. For example, \"flower\" has a high\\-middle (HM) pitch in isolation, but when the particle is appended, it becomes \"flower \" with a high\\-high\\-middle pitch (HHM).\n\n#### Koshikijima accent\n\nThe prosodic system of Koshikijima, like that of mainland Kagoshima, is characterized as a two\\-pattern pitch accent. It differs, however, in the placement of the accent. In this system, the primary high tone falls on a mora and is always preceded by a low\\-pitched syllable. Any other syllables preceding the low one will automatically bear a high tone.\n\nSimilar to the Kagoshima Accent, the high tone is assigned to the very last mora in an unaccented unit. In an accented unit, the high tone falls on the penultimate mora and falls back down on the last mora. Tone placement will also shift accordingly when morphemes and the such are appended to the unit.\n\n| \\+ Tone placement in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 2 syllables | **H\\*L** \"candy\" | **LH\\*** \"rain\" |\n| 3 syllables | **LH\\*L** \"fish\" | **HLH\\*** \"life\" |\n| 5 syllables | **HHLH\\*L** \"candy festival\" | **HHHLH\\*** \"rain festival\" |\n\nIf, in an accented unit, the final low tone falls on a moraic consonant such as , the second mora of a long vowel, or the second vowel of a diphthong, any syllable that follows will also bear a low tone. Otherwise, if the final low tone falls on a consonant\\-vowel syllable, any syllable that is added will shift the entire tone placement.\n\n| Colloquial | \"wild animal\" | |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Non\\-colloquial | \"wild animal\" | |\n\nWhen multiple phrasal units are combined together, the second peak containing the primary high tone will become low in all units except the last one. Thus, for example, when the verbal phrase \"was seen\" is combined with the nominalized phrase \"wild animal\", the accent pattern becomes: \"a wild animal was seen\". Likewise, when it is combined with the colloquial form , the pattern becomes: .\n\n", "### Vowels\n\n| | Front | Central | Back |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Close | | | |\n| Mid | | | |\n| Open | | | |\n\nAll of the Kagoshima dialects contrast the following five vowels: , , , and . In terms of pronunciation, the Kagoshima dialects pattern with other far\\-western Honshu and Kyushu dialects, wherein the [close back vowel](/wiki/Close_back_rounded_vowel%23Close_back_compressed_vowel \"Close back rounded vowel#Close back compressed vowel\") is slightly more rounded than in Tokyo Japanese.Shibatani (1990\\), p.161 Additionally, the [mid front unrounded vowel](/wiki/Mid_front_unrounded_vowel \"Mid front unrounded vowel\") differs from standard Japanese in that it retains the [Late Middle Japanese](/wiki/Late_Middle_Japanese \"Late Middle Japanese\") variation between palatalized and unpalatalized . The palatalization may spread to the previous consonant, so that the syllables might vary between and . This is similar to the palatalization observed with the vowel : . In Tanegashima, the [mid back vowel](/wiki/Close-mid_back_rounded_vowel \"Close-mid back rounded vowel\") still exhibits rounding in some words such as *io* \"fish\" or *shio* \"salt\".\n\nVowel length remains contrastive in all regional dialects, but is noticeably less prominent and sometimes ambiguous in the mainland as a result of a process of [vowel length reduction](/wiki/%23Vowel_length_reduction \"#Vowel length reduction\"). Should historically short, high vowels be shown to devoice rather than delete following sibilant consonants, then dialects of the mainland may effectively contrast the devoiced vowels and with their non\\-devoiced counterparts and , which arose from historically long vowels.\n\nIn comparison to standard Japanese, co\\-occurring vowel sequences tend to fuse into a single vowel, giving rise to a complex system of [vowel coalescence](/wiki/%23Vowel_coalescence \"#Vowel coalescence\") in all regional dialects. In the dialect of [Takarajima](/wiki/Takarajima \"Takarajima\") exceptionally, the sequences , and have not merged into as in other regions, but have instead centralized to and . The vowel tends to result from a fusion of , while usually stems from the fusion of or . Neither of these two coalesced vowels trigger palatalization, consider, for example: \"siblings\" (not ). The vowel is also unique in this dialect in that it may trigger the labialization of the consonant to , as in \"ash\".\n\n", "### Consonants\n\n[thumb\\|right\\|300px\\|Conflation of the *[yotsugana](/wiki/Yotsugana \"Yotsugana\")* syllables throughout Japan.

Before and palatalized , these sounds are [alveolo\\-palatal](/wiki/Alveolo-palatal \"Alveolo-palatal\") () and before they are alveolar (). In terms of the latter, the distinction between all four of the traditional syllables , , and is still preserved within the Kyūshū portion of Kagoshima. Here, they are contrastively realized as , , and . In respect to high vowel deletion, the pairs ヂ and ヅ act as obstruents rather than fricatives, as indicated through their underlying representations and . In parts of northern Koshikijima exceptionally, the sounds contrast with : \"song.DAT\" vs \"song.TOP\" vs \"hit.TOP\".\n\nThe flap consonant is generally an [apical](/wiki/Apical_consonant \"Apical consonant\") postalveolar flap with undefined [laterality](/wiki/Lateral_consonant \"Lateral consonant\"). In word medial and final position, is frequently rendered as a glide (see [sonorant gliding](/wiki/%23Sonorant_gliding \"#Sonorant gliding\") below). It may also be subject to fortition, merging into in initial position, while occasionally shifting to or in medial position, especially if preceded by a devoiced syllable. Examples of fortition include → \"ease\", → \"next year\", → \"interesting; amusing\", and → (pronounced ) \"cooking\".\n\nThe fricative consonant is pronounced as a [voiceless bilabial fricative](/wiki/Voiceless_bilabial_fricative \"Voiceless bilabial fricative\") before the vowel , and may vary from a [voiceless palatal fricative](/wiki/Voiceless_palatal_fricative \"Voiceless palatal fricative\") to a [voiceless alveolo\\-palatal fricative](/wiki/Voiceless_alveolo-palatal_fricative \"Voiceless alveolo-palatal fricative\") before the vowel , effectively merging with in this position. Curiously, the sibilant consonant has a tendency to [debuccalize](/wiki/Debuccalization \"Debuccalization\") to in word medial position before the low vowel , and more commonly before the high vowel in all positions. Examples of this include *\\-han* for *\\-san* (negative 'su' ending), *kagohima* for Kagoshima, *gowahi* for *gowashi* (copula), *sahikabui* for *sashikabui* \"long time no see\", etc.\n\nThe labialized velar consonants and have limited use, contrasting and almost solely before the vowel . For example, \"conflagration\" contrasts \"housework\". Nowadays, however, these sounds are in regression and younger speakers merge them with their non\\-labialized counterparts as in standard Japanese. So words like \"hoe\", \"sweets\", \"useless\" and \"[Goddess of Mercy](/wiki/Guanyin \"Guanyin\")\" are now increasingly being pronounced , , and . Though uncommon, other sequences such as , , and may occur through contraction of to . For example, the imperative form of \"eat\", which is in standard Japanese, becomes in the dialect, which contrasts both \"landslide\" (pronounced ) and \"shellfish\". They may also surface in a few onomatopoeic words, such as \"[woof woof](/wiki/Bark_%28utterance%29 \"Bark (utterance)\")\". In parts of Southern Satsuma and Tanegashima, may allophonically be realized as , so that \"eat.\" may be pronounced as , and Tanegashima \"thorn\" becomes .\n\n#### Placeless consonants\n\nThe [archiphonemes](/wiki/Archiphoneme \"Archiphoneme\") and can also be represented by the [uvular nasal](/wiki/Uvular_nasal \"Uvular nasal\") and the [glottal stop](/wiki/Glottal_stop \"Glottal stop\") . Both of these phonemes derive from a single process consisting of deleting the point of articulation of a given syllable, both correspond to a full [mora](/wiki/Mora_%28linguistics%29 \"Mora (linguistics)\"), and both undergo a variety of [assimilatory](/wiki/Assimilation_%28linguistics%29 \"Assimilation (linguistics)\") processes.\n\nAs with standard Japanese, the place of articulation of the moraic nasal , which corresponds to a reduced nasal syllable, is determined by the following consonant. Contrary to standard Japanese, however, the moraic nasal may also surface in word\\-initial position, as in the expression \"wow!\" or the word \"horse\".\n\nSimilarly, the moraic obstruent corresponds to a reduced stop syllable. Contrary to the standard language, the moraic obstruent may occur word medially before any other sound except the moraic nasal. It may also occur in word\\-final position, which means that its phonetic realization cannot be immediately determined within the lexical unit. Like the moraic nasal, its place of articulation is mostly determined by the following consonant. Before other stops and fricatives, it assimilates, creating an effect of gemination. Before nasal syllables, the moraic obstruent may be realized, depending on the regional dialect, as a [glottal stop](/wiki/Glottal_stop \"Glottal stop\") , so that \"fox\" is pronounced . Other dialects exhibit gemination in this position, so that the latter is pronounced instead. At the end of utterances and in isolation, the moraic obstruent is predictably realized as a glottal stop , which may also suggest that a parallelism exists between the glottal stop in interjections and the moraic obstruent in standard Japanese itself.\n\nIn some regions of Kagoshima such as Uchinoura, a third archiphoneme is described. is generally pronounced and historically stems from a reduction of the syllables , , and in non\\-word initial position.

For example, in most Japanese dialects including that of [Tokyo](/wiki/Tokyo_dialect \"Tokyo dialect\"), the sequence of results in the [monophthong](/wiki/Monophthong \"Monophthong\") : → \"tall\". Similarly, the Kagoshima dialects have also undergone a process of vowel coalescence. However, unlike dialects like that of Tokyo, the process is much more pervasive in Kagoshima, to the extent that nearly all vowel sequences exhibit some form of fusion.\n\nFor instance, vowel coalescence systematically occurs with the vowel followed by , so that \"ash\" and \"shellfish\" become and respectively. Likewise, followed by results in the , so that \"come\" is becomes as well. A sentence such as \"Come buy shellfish\" would thus become , which, due to [vowel length reduction](/wiki/%23Vowel_length_reduction \"#Vowel length reduction\"), is pronounced entirely as in mainland Kagoshima.\n\nIt also occurs with the vowel followed by , so that \"(to become) red\" and \"buy\" become and respectively. Other mergers include → , → , → , → , among numerous others that can be summarized in the following table, where the *y*\\-axis denotes the first vowel and the *x*\\-axis the second:\n\n| \\+ Table of vowel mergers in Kagoshima |\n| --- |\n| | | | | | |\n| | | | | , | |\n| | | | | | |\n| | | | | , | |\n| | , | | | | |\n| | | | , | | |\n\nDespite the extent of this sound change, the Kagoshima dialects are not devoid of co\\-occurring vowels due to other, subsequent sound changes that have taken place in the dialects.

Similarly, the Kagoshima dialects have also undergone a process of vowel coalescence. However, unlike dialects like that of Tokyo, the process is much more pervasive in Kagoshima, to the extent that nearly all vowel sequences exhibit some form of fusion.\n\nFor instance, vowel coalescence systematically occurs with the vowel followed by , so that \"ash\" and \"shellfish\" become and respectively. Likewise, followed by results in the , so that \"come\" is becomes as well. A sentence such as \"Come buy shellfish\" would thus become , which, due to [vowel length reduction](/wiki/%23Vowel_length_reduction \"#Vowel length reduction\"), is pronounced entirely as in mainland Kagoshima.\n\nIt also occurs with the vowel followed by , so that \"(to become) red\" and \"buy\" become and respectively.

Most of Kagoshima falls into the South\\-Western Kyushu two\\-pattern accent group (■ ).](/wiki/File:Japanese_pitch_accent_map-ja.png \"Japanese pitch accent map-ja.png\")\n\n#### Kagoshima accent\n\nOne of the most oft\\-studied aspects of the Kagoshima dialect is its prosodic system. With the exception of a few areas such as Tanegashima, the system is described as a two\\-pattern pitch accent in which phrasal units may be either accented or unaccented. In accented units (also called \"Type A\" tone\\-bearing units), all syllables bear a low tonal pitch (\"L\") except for the penultimate syllable, which bears a high pitch (\"H\"). In unaccented units (also called \"Type B\" tone\\-bearing units), all syllables bear a low pitch until the final syllable, at which point the pitch rises to a high pitch.\n\n| \\+ Tone placement in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 1 syllable | **(H)L** or \"spirit\" | **H** \"tree\" |\n| 2 syllables | **HL** \"nose\" | **LH** \"flower\" |\n| 3 syllables | **LHL** \"longish\" | **LLH** \"scene\" |\n\n* In accented words with only one syllable, the pitch is described as falling (sometimes written \"F\"). This is because the vowel is subject to lengthening, where the first mora in the syllable will bear a high tone while the second mora will bear a low tone. This means that \"spirit\" would be pronounced like and have a high\\-low (HL) pitch, as if it were a two\\-syllable word. This vowel length disappears when the word is followed by other morphemes such as particles.\n\nAlthough the type of pitch accent is lexically determined, it is more specifically determined by the first element in a syntactic phrase and will apply to that entire phrase. This effectively means that the placement of the high tone in accented or unaccented units will shift rightwards to the penultimate or final syllable of the phrase when other morphemes, auxiliaries or grammatical particles such as are appended at the end.\n \n * + \n\n| \\+ Tone shifting in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 1 → 2 syllables | **HL**気が \"spirit \" | **LH**木が \"tree \" |\n| 2 → 3 syllables | **LHL**鼻が \"nose \" | **LLH**花が \"flower \" |\n| 3 → 4 syllables | **LLHL**長めが \"longish \" | **LLLH**眺めが \"scene \" |\n\nBecause the accent pattern is always determined by the first element of the phrasal unit, prefixes will alter the accent type of the word to which they attach. For example, \"temple\" and are normally accented, but when the honorific prefix *o\\-* is added, they shift to an unaccented pattern: and .\n\nNote that the high tone falls on the syllable rather than the [mora](/wiki/Mora_%28linguistics%29 \"Mora (linguistics)\"), so tone placement remains unaffected by moraic obstruents, moraic nasals, fricatives resulting from devoicing, long vowels and diphthongs.\n\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Moraic Nasal | \"stubbornness\" → | \"[Obon Festival](/wiki/Bon_Festival \"Bon Festival\")\" → |\n| Moraic Obstruent | \"one's convenience\" → | \"adzuki\\-bean mochi\" → |\n| Devoiced fricative | \"glass\" → | \"crow\" → |\n| Vowel | \"car\" → | \"passing through\" → |\n\n#### Makurazaki accent\n\nThe Makurazaki dialect, spoken in and around [Makurazaki City](/wiki/Makurazaki%2C_Kagoshima \"Makurazaki, Kagoshima\"), is described as a two\\-pattern pitch accent system very similar to that of the Kagoshima accent. In this dialect, accented units bear a high tone on all syllables except the penultimate syllable, which bears a low pitch. In unaccented units, all syllables have a high pitch except the final syllable, which bears a middle pitch (\"M\").\n\n| \\+ Tone placement in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 1 syllable | **H** \"day\" | **M** \"fire\" |\n| 2 syllables | **LH** \"nose\" | **HM** \"flower\" |\n| 3 syllables | **HLH** \"cherry blossom\" | **HHM** \"man\" |\n| 4 syllables | **HHLH** \"weft\" | **HHHM** \"morning glory\" |\n\n* The tone of unaccented words with one syllable has also been described as \"falling\", but it is not clear whether this manifests itself as vowel lengthening similar to accented words in the Kagoshima accent.\n\nLike mainland Kagoshima, the accent type is determined by the first element in the phrasal unit and the pitch will shift accordingly as other morphemes are added. For example, \"flower\" has a high\\-middle (HM) pitch in isolation, but when the particle is appended, it becomes \"flower \" with a high\\-high\\-middle pitch (HHM).\n\n#### Koshikijima accent\n\nThe prosodic system of Koshikijima, like that of mainland Kagoshima, is characterized as a two\\-pattern pitch accent. It differs, however, in the placement of the accent. In this system, the primary high tone falls on a mora and is always preceded by a low\\-pitched syllable. Any other syllables preceding the low one will automatically bear a high tone.\n\nSimilar to the Kagoshima Accent, the high tone is assigned to the very last mora in an unaccented unit. In an accented unit, the high tone falls on the penultimate mora and falls back down on the last mora. Tone placement will also shift accordingly when morphemes and the such are appended to the unit.\n\n| \\+ Tone placement in accented and unaccented units |\n| --- |\n| | Accented | Unaccented |\n| 2 syllables | **H\\*L** \"candy\" | **LH\\*** \"rain\" |\n| 3 syllables | **LH\\*L** \"fish\" | **HLH\\*** \"life\" |\n| 5 syllables | **HHLH\\*L** \"candy festival\" | **HHHLH\\*** \"rain festival\" |\n\nIf, in an accented unit, the final low tone falls on a moraic consonant such as , the second mora of a long vowel, or the second vowel of a diphthong, any syllable that follows will also bear a low tone. Otherwise, if the final low tone falls on a consonant\\-vowel syllable, any syllable that is added will shift the entire tone placement.\n\n| Colloquial | \"wild animal\" | |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Non\\-colloquial | \"wild animal\" | |\n\nWhen multiple phrasal units are combined together, the second peak containing the primary high tone will become low in all units except the last one. Thus, for example, when the verbal phrase \"was seen\" is combined with the nominalized phrase \"wild animal\", the accent pattern becomes: \"a wild animal was seen\".

Historically, these forms arose from a contraction of the classical construction . Accordingly, the copula borrows its conjugational pattern from the existential verb , which is dialectally pronounced as or , as seen below:\n\n| \\+ **Using \\* as the base** |\n| --- |\n| Satsugū | Tokyo Japanese | Meaning |\n| | | Copula (to be) |\n|   | | However, though |\n|   | | Is that so? |\n|   | | Negative copula |\n|   | | Copula \\+ emphasis |\n| | | Copula \\+ assertion |\n|   | | Copula (explanation) with noun |\n|   | | Copula (question) |\n|   | | Copula (explanation) with verb |\n|   | | Seems, I think, I guess |\n|   | | Because of... the reason is... |\n|   | | However, but |\n|   | | Copula (past) |\n\n Politeness\nContrary to Western dialects, there exists no true equivalent to the standard polite copula . In cases where standard Japanese would normally use , the Satsugū dialect would tend towards employing the plain form. For example, becomes , \"this is it\".\nIn very formal contexts, the honorific verb or , and their variants and , may be used instead. For the most part, their usage overlaps that of the standard form . Compare, for example, the standard formulation to the Satsugū variant \"it is alright\"; or to \"it is a book\". Note that while similar, the honorific copula or is not normally preceded by the connecting particle . Therefore, such forms as \\* may be considered [calques](/wiki/Calque \"Calque\") on their standard counterpart.\n\n", "Adjectives\n----------\n\n### Adjectival verbs\n\nA common feature among Western Kyūshū dialects is the difference in their adjective endings. Adjectival verbs, or true adjectives, end with the generic inflection rather than in their attributive and predicative forms. Eastern Kyūshū dialects, however, follow the same pattern as Standard Japanese, using the inflectional ending .

This change was once commonplace throughout Japan, however the adverbial form *\\-ku* was reintroduced through Standard Japanese as it was still preserved in some Eastern dialects. Even so, the *\\-u* ending persists in various [honorifics](/wiki/Honorific_speech_in_Japanese \"Honorific speech in Japanese\") (such as *arigatō* and *omedetō*) as a result of borrowing from the [Kansai dialect](/wiki/Kansai_dialect \"Kansai dialect\"), which was still regarded as a dialect of prestige well after it was no longer considered the standard language. Elsewhere, the *\\-u* ending remains a staple of Western Japanese and rural dialects. This includes the Satsugū dialect, where this ending still thrives today:\n\n| Root | Coalesced form (*\\-u*) | | Standard Japanese (*\\-ku*) | Meaning |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Satsuma\\-Ōsumi | Tanegashima |\n| | | | | quickly |\n| | | | | slowly |\n| | | | | sadly, sorrowfully |\n| | | | | lightly, weakly |\n\nIn addition to these characteristic adjectival adverbs, there are also many non\\-standard nominal and onomatopoeic adverbs unique to the dialects of Kagoshima.

Like [standard Japanese particles](/wiki/Japanese_particles \"Japanese particles\"), they act as suffixes, prepositions or words immediately following the noun, verb, adjective or phrase that they modify, and are used to indicate the relationship between the various elements of a sentence.\n\nUnlike central Japanese dialects, particles in the Kagoshima dialects are bound [clitics](/wiki/Clitic \"Clitic\"), as they have the effect of resyllabifying the last word they attach to. So, for example, the standard forms \"book \", \"writing \" and \"ball \" would be realized as , and ( ← ) in most of northern and central Kagoshima, and , and ( ← ) in parts of Kagoshima's southern mainland.Shibatani (1990\\), p. 210\n\nResyllabification has also led to the reanalysis of some particles in a few dialects. For instance, the topic particle has been completely superseded by the form in [Izumi](/wiki/Izumi%2C_Kagoshima \"Izumi, Kagoshima\"), which in most mainland dialects is merely a variant of after a moraic nasal.\n\n| \\+ Comparison of some particles between Kagoshima and standard Japanese |\n| --- |\n| [Kagoshima dialect](/wiki/Particles_of_the_Kagoshima_dialects \"Particles of the Kagoshima dialects\") | [Standard Japanese](/wiki/Japanese_particles \"Japanese particles\") | General meaning |\n| | | Marks the topic |\n| | | Marks an assertion |\n| | | Marks an adverse or opposition statement |\n| | | Marks approximation |\n| | | Marks possession |\n| | | Marks a time or place as a limit |\n| | | Marks a location, direction, indirect object or agent of a passive sentence |\n| | | Marks the direct object |\n| | | Marks an extent or limit |\n| | | Marks a nominalized phrase |\n| | | Marks provenance |\n\nFor a full in\\-depth list of the particles found in this dialect, including examples, see the article [Particles of the Kagoshima dialects](/wiki/Particles_of_the_Kagoshima_dialects \"Particles of the Kagoshima dialects\").\n\n", "Vocabulary\n----------\n\n### Pronouns\n\nPronouns in the Satsugū dialect display considerable variation from their standard counterparts. The table below lists the most common pronouns as they occur in their basic forms. When followed by particles beginning with a vowel or a glide, affected pronouns will be resyllabified in the [coda](/wiki/Syllable_coda \"Syllable coda\") according to the phonological patterns of the local dialect. In most of mainland Kagoshima, for instance, when the pronouns \"I\" and \"you\" are followed by the topic particle , they become and respectively. Similarly, in Tanegashima, when the pronoun \"oneself\" is followed by the topic particle , it becomes .\n\n| [Romaji](/wiki/Romaji \"Romaji\") | [Hiragana](/wiki/Hiragana \"Hiragana\") | [Kanji](/wiki/Kanji \"Kanji\") | [Formality](/wiki/Honorific_speech_in_Japanese \"Honorific speech in Japanese\") | Notes |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Reflexive pronoun | | | | |\n| | | | formal | Often used in the sense of the standard term , roughly meaning \"oneself\", \"yourself\" or \"myself\". |\n| First\\-person pronouns | | | | |\n| | | | formal, informal | Though it derives from , the pronoun is commonly used by both men and women of all ages in Kagoshima.

Like the above, these differ primarily by the proximity or relation between the person concerned and the speaker. |\n\n#### Suffixes\n\nIn mainland Kagoshima, the two suffixes and are commonly appended to the pronouns above in order to indicate plurality: \"I\" → \"we\", \"you\" → \"you (*pl*)\". The suffix historically derives from the ending , as revealed when topicalized as . More rarely, it may also be topicalized as , as in \"we.\" or \"you (*pl*).\". Due to its pervasive use in the Satsuma region, the ending may have come to be associated with the speech of samurais, and thus carries a slight condescending or humble connotation in standard Japanese. The suffix originates from , and may be topicalized as . Elsewhere in Kagoshima's peripheral islands, the forms differ only slightly. In the Satsunan islands, the ending is most common, and may be topicalized as in Tanegashima. The ending appears to be favored in the Tokara Islands and may be clipped as in Tanegashima, resulting in such forms as or for \"you (*pl*)\".\n\nIn the mainland, the suffix also carries a second function: it can be used as an honorific as opposed to a plural\\-marking suffix. It is worth noting, however, that the honorific suffix stems from the historical form , now used in standard Japanese almost uniquely in business correspondences. In Kagoshima, the usage of the honorific suffix corresponds very closely to that of the standard Japanese honorifics and . For instance, can be used in a very pompous manner with the first\\-person pronoun, resulting in \"I/my esteemed self\", which is equivalent to standard Japanese . Other examples of honorific usage include \"mom\" (standard: ), \"dad\" (standard: ) and \"sun\" (standard: ). The suffix is also used in terms of address in a similar way to in Japanese, so would be equivalent to in standard Japanese or \"Mr./Ms. Ōsako\" in English. Now more and more, however, this usage is being phased out in favor of its standard Japanese counterparts.\n\nThe honorific suffix is also used in a limited number of expressions, along with its more common mainland variant . For example, or are honorific pronouns used to refer to a third person, while is another honorific term used to refer to the sun, and is an honorific referring to gods or deities. Under the influence of mainland Japanese and in certain regions like Nakanoshima, the variants and are used, especially with terms of kinship. Some examples from Nakanoshima include: \"dad\", \"mom\" and \"older brother\".\n\n### Demonstratives\n\n| | | | | |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| | this one | that one | that one over there | which one? |\n| | (of) this | (of) that | (of) that over there | (of) what? |\n| | like thisin this manner | like thatin that manner | like that over therein that (other) manner | what sort of?how? in what manner? |\n| | here | there | \\*over there | where? |\n| | to this extent,only this much | to that extent,only that much | to that extent,only that much | to what extent?how much? |\n\n \\* irregular formation; variants include , and \n\nAs with Standard Japanese, demonstratives also occur in the (proximal), (mesial), and (distal) series, with the corresponding interrogative form as .\n\nThe pronoun series is created using the suffix , which is a reduced form of the standard suffix . Particles attached to this form may cause the underlying historical form to resurface. For example, when the dative particle (standard ) is attached, the forms become , , and , since sonorant gliding (i.e. → ) fails to trigger when the vowel stems from a historically long vowel or diphthong (i.e. → ). So instead, vowel coalescence and vowel reduction are exhibited ( → → ).\n\nThe determiner suffix surfaces as for the standard ending . Thus, \"this book\" would be expressed as . The determiner series also serves to replace the standard Japanese person series by compounding onto it the noun (or in Tanegashima), roughly meaning \"person\", creating the forms , , and more rarely .坂田勝 (2007\\), p. 107 Tanegashima also appears to make use of the determiner series followed by the suffix 共 to indicate plurality, so would effectively mean \"these people\" or \"these guys\".\n\nThe kind and manner series, which are and in standard Japanese, are grouped together under the (before a verb) and (before a noun) series, which may be elided to and in casual speech. In parts of the Koshikijima Islands, the latter may be pronounced as or . In other parts, namely the Southern Satsuma Peninsula, these forms are replaced by compounding the determiner suffix with the noun followed by the directional suffix if used before a verb, thus creating the forms , , and . The preceding compound is equivalent to that of the standard form , as in , , etc.\n\nThe place suffix remains the same as standard Japanese. However, the directional series , preserved in the expression \"here and there\" (standard ),坂田勝 (2007\\), p. 15 is more commonly replaced by appending the directional particle (standard and ) to the place series, resulting in the form (, , , ) due to vowel coalescence. In Tanegashima uniquely, this form is instead expressed by tagging on the directional particle to the pronominal series (), resulting in , , , and . The directional ending is also in use in a number of areas, giving , , , .\n\nAnd lastly, the Satsugū dialect also makes use of an extra series that describes limits using the suffix, which is roughly the equivalent of the standard Japanese construction \\+ or . So \"only that much\" in standard Japanese would become in the dialect. To express approximation, as in \"only about that much\", the particle may be added to form . The interrogative form is commonly used to ask about prices: \"how much is it?\" (standard ).\n\n", "### Pronouns\n\nPronouns in the Satsugū dialect display considerable variation from their standard counterparts.

Under the influence of mainland Japanese and in certain regions like Nakanoshima, the variants and are used, especially with terms of kinship. Some examples from Nakanoshima include: \"dad\", \"mom\" and \"older brother\".\n\n", "### Demonstratives\n\n| | | | | |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| | this one | that one | that one over there | which one? |\n| | (of) this | (of) that | (of) that over there | (of) what? |\n| | like thisin this manner | like thatin that manner | like that over therein that (other) manner | what sort of?how? in what manner? |\n| | here | there | \\*over there | where? |\n| | to this extent,only this much | to that extent,only that much | to that extent,only that much | to what extent?how much? |\n\n \\* irregular formation; variants include , and \n\nAs with Standard Japanese, demonstratives also occur in the (proximal), (mesial), and (distal) series, with the corresponding interrogative form as .\n\nThe pronoun series is created using the suffix , which is a reduced form of the standard suffix . Particles attached to this form may cause the underlying historical form to resurface. For example, when the dative particle (standard ) is attached, the forms become , , and , since sonorant gliding (i.e. → ) fails to trigger when the vowel stems from a historically long vowel or diphthong (i.e. → ). So instead, vowel coalescence and vowel reduction are exhibited ( → → ).\n\nThe determiner suffix surfaces as for the standard ending . Thus, \"this book\" would be expressed as . The determiner series also serves to replace the standard Japanese person series by compounding onto it the noun (or in Tanegashima), roughly meaning \"person\", creating the forms , , and more rarely .坂田勝 (2007\\), p. 107 Tanegashima also appears to make use of the determiner series followed by the suffix 共 to indicate plurality, so would effectively mean \"these people\" or \"these guys\".\n\nThe kind and manner series, which are and in standard Japanese, are grouped together under the (before a verb) and (before a noun) series, which may be elided to and in casual speech. In parts of the Koshikijima Islands, the latter may be pronounced as or . In other parts, namely the Southern Satsuma Peninsula, these forms are replaced by compounding the determiner suffix with the noun followed by the directional suffix if used before a verb, thus creating the forms , , and . The preceding compound is equivalent to that of the standard form , as in , , etc.\n\nThe place suffix remains the same as standard Japanese. However, the directional series , preserved in the expression \"here and there\" (standard ),坂田勝 (2007\\), p. 15 is more commonly replaced by appending the directional particle (standard and ) to the place series, resulting in the form (, , , ) due to vowel coalescence. In Tanegashima uniquely, this form is instead expressed by tagging on the directional particle to the pronominal series (), resulting in , , , and . The directional ending is also in use in a number of areas, giving , , , .\n\nAnd lastly, the Satsugū dialect also makes use of an extra series that describes limits using the suffix, which is roughly the equivalent of the standard Japanese construction \\+ or . So \"only that much\" in standard Japanese would become in the dialect. To express approximation, as in \"only about that much\", the particle may be added to form . The interrogative form is commonly used to ask about prices: \"how much is it?\" (standard ).\n\n", "Verbs\n-----\n\nThe verbal morphology of the Kagoshima dialects is heavily marked by its divergent phonological processes. Vowels can, for instance, coalesce, devoice, or be deleted entirely depending on the preceding sound. For example, the standard form \"write\" becomes in the dialects of the mainland as a result of [high vowel deletion](/wiki/%23High-vowel_deletion \"#High-vowel deletion\"). In addition to such changes, noticeable morphological differences exist between the standard language and the dialects. For example, the Kagoshima dialects pattern more closely with Western Japanese and Kyushu dialects, using the negative ending as opposed to .[:ja:日本語の方言の比較表\\#.E4\\.B9\\.9D.E5\\.B7\\.9E.EF.BC.88\\.E8\\.A5\\.BF.E6\\.B5\\.B7\\.E9\\.81\\.93\\.EF.BC.89, 2012\\-08\\-25](/wiki/%E6%97%A5%E6%9C%AC%E8%AA%9E%E3%81%AE%E6%96%B9%E8%A8%80%E3%81%AE%E6%AF%94%E8%BC%83%E8%A1%A8%23.E4.B9.9D.E5.B7.9E.EF.BC.88.E8.A5.BF.E6.B5.B7.E9.81.93.EF.BC.89%2C_2012-08-25 \"日本語の方言の比較表#.E4.B9.9D.E5.B7.9E.EF.BC.88.E8.A5.BF.E6.B5.B7.E9.81.93.EF.BC.89, 2012-08-25\"), Retrieved 2012\\-08\\-27 So the form \"not write\" is used instead of the standard equivalent . Other examples include the use of the form instead of in the imperfective () and participle () forms of verbs ending with the vowel stem , or the auxiliary ( ) instead of for the progressive form. More specific to regions of Kyushu, the dialects continue to use the form for verbs that would end in in standard Japanese, as in ( ) \"to be seen\" instead of , and they also use the auxiliary verb () where standard Japanese uses the ending to express desire, as in \"want to eat\" as opposed to the standard forms or .\n\nOther noticeable differences specific to Kagoshima include its significant array of honorifics. For example, the polite auxiliary verbs (or in Tanegashima) and , sometimes written as and respectively, are used instead of the standard ending . Compare to \"(*polite*) eat\". The endings and are also sometimes used to replace to stem of verbs ending in in order to add an extra degree of politeness. As a result, multiple variants of the same verb may exist: , and are all formal auxiliaries used in imperative constructions, as in \"please eat\". And, while the form exists, the forms and are not used, suggesting that and may be reduced forms of the auxiliary verbs and . Related differences include or instead of the standard form for politely requesting that someones does something for the speaker.\n\nMany other differences also exist, especially at the lexical level. Examples in mainland Kagoshima include () instead of \"to play\", () instead of \"to die\", () instead of \"to do one's best\", or ( or ) instead of \"to walk around\", () instead of \"to walk\", and so on.\n\n", "See also\n--------\n\nJapanese dialects spoken north of Kagoshima:\n* [Hichiku dialect](/wiki/Hichiku_dialect \"Hichiku dialect\")\n* [Hōnichi dialect](/wiki/H%C5%8Dnichi_dialect \"Hōnichi dialect\")\n\nJaponic languages spoken directly south of the Kagoshima dialect boundaries:\n* [Amami Ōshima language](/wiki/Amami_%C5%8Cshima_language \"Amami Ōshima language\")\n* [Kikai language](/wiki/Kikai_language \"Kikai language\")\n\nInfluential dialects:\n* [Kansai dialect](/wiki/Kansai_dialect \"Kansai dialect\") (historically influential)\n* [Tokyo dialect](/wiki/Tokyo_dialect \"Tokyo dialect\") (currently influential)\n\n", "Notes\n-----\n\n", "References\n----------\n\n General\n\n* Parts of this article were adapted from its correspondent [Japanese](/wiki/Japanese_language \"Japanese language\") article .\n Specific\n\n[Category:Japanese dialects](/wiki/Category:Japanese_dialects \"Japanese dialects\")\n[Category:Kagoshima Prefecture](/wiki/Category:Kagoshima_Prefecture \"Kagoshima Prefecture\")\n\n" ] }

The main drive engines were later replaced by VT800 Cummins engines. Water tank capacity was and fuel tank capacity was at 95% full.Scheina, p 71 Engine exhaust was ported through the transom rather than through a conventional stack and this permitted a 360 degree view from the bridge; a feature that was very useful in search and rescue work as well as a combat environment.Scotti, p 165\n\nThe design specifications for *Point Glover* included a steel hull for durability and an aluminum superstructure and longitudinally framed construction was used to save weight. Ease of operation with a small crew size was possible because of the non\\-manned main drive engine spaces. Controls and alarms located on the [bridge](/wiki/Bridge_%28nautical%29 \"Bridge (nautical)\") allowed one man operation of the cutter thus eliminating a live engineer [watch](/wiki/Watch_system \"Watch system\") in the engine room.Scotti, p 165 Because of design, four men could operate the cutter; however, the need for resting watchstanders brought the crew size to eight men for normal domestic service.Scotti, p 165 The [screws](/wiki/Propeller \"Propeller\") were designed for ease of replacement and could be changed without removing the cutter from the water. A clutch\\-in idle speed of three knots helped to conserve fuel on lengthy patrols and an eighteen knot maximum speed could get the cutter on scene quickly.Scotti, p 166 Air\\-conditioned interior spaces were a part of the original design for the Point class cutter. Interior access to the deckhouse was through a [watertight door](/wiki/Ship_floodability \"Ship floodability\") on the [starboard side](/wiki/Starboard_side \"Starboard side\") aft of the [deckhouse](/wiki/Deckhouse \"Deckhouse\"). The deckhouse contained the cabin for the officer\\-in\\-charge and the executive petty officer.Scotti, p 166 The deckhouse also included a small arms locker, [scuttlebutt](/wiki/Scuttlebutt \"Scuttlebutt\"), a small desk and [head](/wiki/Head_%28watercraft%29 \"Head (watercraft)\"). Access to the lower deck and engine room was down a ladder.

During the procession, people float boats which are said to be carrying the spirits of the deceased down the river. The spirits are said to be sent to [Sukhavati](/wiki/Sukhavati \"Sukhavati\"). It is done as an act of mourning by those who have lost a family member in the past year, though people who are not mourning participate as well. \n\nAs with many other Japanese festivals, people carry firecrackers and gongs, and often sound off with [kakegoe](/wiki/Kakegoe \"Kakegoe\"). Some boats are built up to look like festival floats, and many tourists come to see the event. Despite the atmosphere, the procession is actually a Buddhist event of mourning the deceased. At one time the boats were floated off into the ocean, but in recent years the boats are retrieved before they go out that far so as to prevent polluting the ocean.\n\nIn 2010, it was reported that more than 180,000 people had attended the event.\n\n### Boats\n\nThe boats are called . The boats are said to carry the souls of the deceased on them. The boats are mainly built by people who have lost a family member in the last year, though they are also built by others.\n\nThe boats can be built from a quantity of different supplies and no particular one is preferred.

People who are mourning decorate the boat with the family crest, put a portrait of the deceased and the mortuary tablet on the boat, and also sometimes use a token that exemplifies the person (e.g. a shogi player may have a shogi piece on the boat). Those who are not mourning generally build small laced rafts, and set O\\-Bon lanterns, fruit or non\\-natural flowers on them instead. Boats made by individuals or family members are generally between 1 and 2 meters.

Prior to the 1950s, these sorts of boats were more popular, as individual family boats are expensive and considered relatively luxurious.

In 1347 he was challenged by Sir John Warbleton (or Warburton), a knight from Cheshire who happened to be serving with him at the [Siege of Calais](/wiki/Siege_of_Calais_%281346%29 \"Siege of Calais (1346)\"), who noticed they both bore the same arms on their shields, \"Lozengy or and azure\" (a field of gold and blue lozenges). The case was brought before a court of honour convened at Calais and presided over by [Henry of Grosmont, Earl of Lancaster](/wiki/Henry_of_Grosmont%2C_1st_Duke_of_Lancaster \"Henry of Grosmont, 1st Duke of Lancaster\") which adjudged on 19 July 1347 the disputed arms to Warbleton. Theobald Russell \"de Gorges\" thus added a \"[chevron](/wiki/Chevron_%28insignia%29 \"Chevron (insignia)\") gules\" (red chevron) to the de Morville arms as a [difference](/wiki/Difference_%28heraldry%29 \"Difference (heraldry)\"), in order not to contravene the judgement. Thus the new Gorges arms, known as *Gorges Modern*, became \"Lozengy or and azure, a chevron gules\",Burke's *The General Armory*, 1884, p.413, which however gives the incorrect date, here obtained corrected from Raymond Gorges's *History of the Gorges Family* and one of the more celebrated and historic heraldic cases heard in a military court was recorded. This coat of arms was afterwards used by Sir Ferdinando Gorges.For the most celebrated such case see [Scrope v Grosvenor](/wiki/Scrope_v_Grosvenor \"Scrope v Grosvenor\") The ancient Gorges [canting arms](/wiki/Canting_arms \"Canting arms\") of \"Argent, a gurges azure\", being a blue whirlpool on a white (or silver) background, *gurges* signifying in Latin a Whirlpool,Cassell's Latin Dictionary, 260th Thousand, Marchant \\& Charles: Gurges\\-itis (m), (from root GAR to swallow) a whirlpool, eddy, abyss had been retained some generations before by the senior Gorges line seated at [Tamerton Foliot](/wiki/Tamerton_Foliot \"Tamerton Foliot\"), Devon, the cadet line having married the de Morville heiress.\n\nThe whirlpool arms as borne by the senior branch can be seen in [Tamerton Foliot](/wiki/Tamerton_Foliot \"Tamerton Foliot\") Church of St. Mary as a whorl in the 9th. quartering on the 1617 Coplestone funerary monument. The Coplestone family inherited Tamerton Foliot by marriage to a Gorges heiress. In the form of 3 concentric annulets the arms were formerly visible sculpted on the tunic of the adjacent knightly effigy, said by Raymond Gorges *op.cit* to represent John Gorges of [Warleigh House](/wiki/Warleigh%2C_Tamerton_Foliot \"Warleigh, Tamerton Foliot\"), lord of the manor of Tamerton Foliot, who flourished at the start of the 15th century, and his wife.

The festival commenced in 1997 and was founded by Peter Barclay and a group of volunteers who in part drew some of their inspiration from the Adelaide Writers Week. The festival was organised through the Northern Rivers Writers' Centre, incorporated in 1995\\. In 2016, the Centre and the Festival were amalgamated under one banner and was renamed as Byron Writers Festival.\n\nIt is held on the first weekend of August each year. As of 2010 it included presentations by over 100 participants, which has continued in every year since. The festival has included interviews with a number of notable writers including [Cheryl Strayed](/wiki/Cheryl_Strayed \"Cheryl Strayed\"), [Bret Easton Ellis](/wiki/Bret_Easton_Ellis \"Bret Easton Ellis\"), [Matthew Reilly](/wiki/Matthew_Reilly \"Matthew Reilly\") and [Kathy Lette](/wiki/Kathy_Lette \"Kathy Lette\").\n\nIn 2005 the festival had an audience of between 7,000 and 8,000, an increase of 25 per cent over the previous year. Notable participants included [Midnight Oil](/wiki/Midnight_Oil \"Midnight Oil\") drummer and songwriter [Rob Hirst](/wiki/Rob_Hirst \"Rob Hirst\"), writers [Delia Falconer](/wiki/Delia_Falconer \"Delia Falconer\") and [Kate Grenville](/wiki/Kate_Grenville \"Kate Grenville\"), and novelist [Robert Drewe](/wiki/Robert_Drewe \"Robert Drewe\") who lives in the area.\n\nThe tenth festival was held in 2006, and attracted an audience of 9,000 across 90 sessions. Presenters included sports journalist [Gideon Haigh](/wiki/Gideon_Haigh \"Gideon Haigh\"), actor and writer [William McInnes](/wiki/William_McInnes \"William McInnes\"), and Robert Drewe. In 2015, individual visitors to the three\\-day event reached 3000 a day and a total of 65,000 at sessions, compared with 109,000 at Sydney Writers' Festival. 2019 was a record year, with the highest box office sales in its 23\\-year history and 140 local and international guests across 121 on\\-site events, 17 off\\-site events, 15 workshops, a schools program for primary\\- and secondary\\-school students, and a road trip to regional towns.\n\nEdwina Johnson was the festival's longest standing director from 2014\\-2022\\. Edwina was praised in the [Sydney Morning Herald](/wiki/The_Sydney_Morning_Herald \"The Sydney Morning Herald\") for growing the festival into an international event, including guests such as [Jeanette Winterson](/wiki/Jeanette_Winterson \"Jeanette Winterson\") and [Geoff Dyer](/wiki/Geoff_Dyer \"Geoff Dyer\"). The festival did not run in 2020 or 2021, due to the pandemic. In 2022, it returned under new director Zoe Pollock. In 2023, it will be held in the Bangalow Showgrounds for the first time.\n\nThe festival has four flagship programs: the annual festival, a free creative writing program for children called StoryBoard, professional development services for members, and the annual residential mentorship opportunity. The Residential Mentorship was established in 2001 for emerging writers in the region, and has led to significant amounts of publication. Notable alumni include [Jesse Blackadder](/wiki/Jesse_Blackadder \"Jesse Blackadder\"), Jarrah Dundler, Jessie Cole, Russell Eldridge, [Mirandi Riwoe](/wiki/Mirandi_Riwoe \"Mirandi Riwoe\"), Emma Ashmere, Helen Burns, Bronwyn Birdsall and Lisa Walker. Local author [Marele Day](/wiki/Marele_Day \"Marele Day\") was the mentor from 2001\\-2021 and in 2022, former participant [Sarah Armstrong](/wiki/Sarah_Armstrong \"Sarah Armstrong\") became the new mentor.\n\n", "References\n----------\n\n", "External links\n--------------\n\n* [Byron Writers Festival](http://www.byronwritersfestival.com) website\n\n[Category:Literary festivals in Australia](/wiki/Category:Literary_festivals_in_Australia \"Literary festivals in Australia\")\n[Category:Festivals established in 1997](/wiki/Category:Festivals_established_in_1997 \"Festivals established in 1997\")\n[Category:1997 establishments in Australia](/wiki/Category:1997_establishments_in_Australia \"1997 establishments in Australia\")\n[Category:Byron Bay](/wiki/Category:Byron_Bay \"Byron Bay\")\n[Category:Festivals in New South Wales](/wiki/Category:Festivals_in_New_South_Wales \"Festivals in New South Wales\")\n\n" ] }

She was elected to serve on the [Executive Committee of the American Economic Association](https://www.aeaweb.org/AboutAEA/board.php) from 2015 to 2018\\. Kranton's research focuses on how social institutions affect economic outcomes, and has applications in a variety of fields within economics, such as economic development, international economics, and industrial organization.\n\nMore specifically, Kranton studies social networks and develops formal theories of how social networks affect economic behavior, the effects of buyer\\-seller networks,Rachel Kranton and Deborah Minehart, \"Competition for Goods in Buyer\\-Seller Networks,\" *[Review of Economic Design](/wiki/Review_of_Economic_Design \"Review of Economic Design\")*, 5 (3\\), September 2000, pp. 301–31\\. institutions in [colonial India](/wiki/Colonial_India \"Colonial India\"),Rachel Kranton and Anand Swamy, \"Contracts, Hold\\-Up, and Exports: Textiles and Opium in Colonial India,\" American Economic Review 98 (3\\), June 2008, pp. 967–89\\.\"The Hazards of Piecemeal Reform: British Civil Courts and the Credit Market in Colonial India,\" Rachel Kranton and Anand Swamy, Journal of Development Economics, 58 (1\\), February 1999, pp. 1–24\\. and reciprocal exchange.Rachel Kranton, \"Reciprocal Exchange: A Self\\-Sustaining System,\" American Economic Review, 86 (4\\), September 1996, pp. 830–51\\.

In 2011–12, Kranton was a visiting professor at the [Paris School of Economics](/wiki/Paris_School_of_Economics \"Paris School of Economics\"). She was announced to take over the position of dean of social sciences at Duke University from July 2018\\. She was also awarded as a fellow into the [Econometric Society](/wiki/Econometric_Society \"Econometric Society\") from Duke University in 2012\\.\n\n", "Research\n--------\n\nRachel Kranton's research interests is on the effect of institutions and the social setting on economic outcomes. She has made huge influence in the field of Identity Economics and the economics of networks.

She was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 2021\\.\n\nRachel Kranton was recognized in an article by Gregory Phillips (a communications manager at the Fuqua School of Business \\& staff member at Duke University)'Desire To Be In A Group Leads To Harsher Judgement Of Others,' which recognized Kranton for her study of \"groupiness.\" This study divided a portion of 141 participants into \nthree different settings, including, 1\\)declared political leanings, 2\\)a more neutral group using the participants preferences of similar poems and paintings, 3\\)a random grouping. These three groups were asked to distribute money amongst themselves in their groups, or to themselves and someone outside their group. This test was used to determine if there were discriminatory factors against people outside of their groups. Yet, the result of this study found that this separate grouping created biases against people outside of their group, regardless of their political beliefs. It was found that a third of the participants were more likely to be politically independent and not have a group bias in the allocation of these assets. Some of the other findings was that the \"groupiness\" of people does not relate to gender or ethnicity.\n\n", "Notable previous positions\n--------------------------\n\n* Dean of social sciences, Trinity College, Duke University, 2018–2022\\.\n* Professor, department of economics, Duke University, 2007–2012\\.\n* Chaire Blaise Pascal, Paris School of Economics, 2011–2012\\.\n* Professor, department of economics, University of Maryland, 2004–2008\\.\n* Visiting associate professor, department of economics, Princeton University, 2002–2003\n* Member, school of social science, Institute for Advanced Study, 2001–2002\\.\n* Russell Sage Foundation Visiting Scholar, New York, NY, 1997–1998\\.\n\n", "Professional service\n--------------------\n\n* Founding executive committee, *Economic Research on Identity, Norms, and Narratives* (*ERINN*), 2016–present.\n* Core, *Theoretical Research in Development Economics* (*ThReD*), 2015–present.\n* Managing editor, *The Economic Journal*, 2017–2020\\.\n* Executive committee (elected member), American Economic Association, 2015–2018\\.\n* Editorial board, *Journal of Economic Literature*, 2013–2019\\.\n* Editorial board, *American Economic Review*, 2001–2007\\.\n\n", "References\n----------\n\n", "External links\n--------------\n\n* [Kranton's Duke page](https://sites.duke.edu/rachelkranton).\n* [Kranton's Duke econ page](https://econ.duke.edu/people/rachel-kranton)\n\n[Category:1960s births](/wiki/Category:1960s_births \"1960s births\")\n[Category:Living people](/wiki/Category:Living_people \"Living people\")\n[Category:Princeton School of Public and International Affairs alumni](/wiki/Category:Princeton_School_of_Public_and_International_Affairs_alumni \"Princeton School of Public and International Affairs alumni\")\n[Category:University of California, Berkeley alumni](/wiki/Category:University_of_California%2C_Berkeley_alumni \"University of California, Berkeley alumni\")\n[Category:Duke University faculty](/wiki/Category:Duke_University_faculty \"Duke University faculty\")\n[Category:21st\\-century American economists](/wiki/Category:21st-century_American_economists \"21st-century American economists\")\n[Category:20th\\-century American economists](/wiki/Category:20th-century_American_economists \"20th-century American economists\")\n[Category:American women economists](/wiki/Category:American_women_economists \"American women economists\")\n[Category:Economics journal editors](/wiki/Category:Economics_journal_editors \"Economics journal editors\")\n[Category:Fellows of the Econometric Society](/wiki/Category:Fellows_of_the_Econometric_Society \"Fellows of the Econometric Society\")\n[Category:Fellows of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences](/wiki/Category:Fellows_of_the_American_Academy_of_Arts_and_Sciences \"Fellows of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences\")\n[Category:Members of the United States National Academy of Sciences](/wiki/Category:Members_of_the_United_States_National_Academy_of_Sciences \"Members of the United States National Academy of Sciences\")\n[Category:20th\\-century American women](/wiki/Category:20th-century_American_women \"20th-century American women\")\n[Category:21st\\-century American women](/wiki/Category:21st-century_American_women \"21st-century American women\")\n\n" ] }

He is the creator of *Myth of the Stone*, arguably Singapore's first long\\-form [graphic novel](/wiki/Graphic_novel \"Graphic novel\") in English. He is also the author of *Spiaking Singlish* – the first book on [Singlish](/wiki/Singlish \"Singlish\") written entirely in the patois, complete with colloquial spelling – and the only published Singlish translator to date.\n\n", "Education\n---------\n\nGwee went to the now\\-defunct MacRitchie Primary School and then [Anglo\\-Chinese Secondary School](/wiki/Anglo-Chinese_School \"Anglo-Chinese School\") and [Anglo\\-Chinese Junior College](/wiki/Anglo-Chinese_Junior_College \"Anglo-Chinese Junior College\"). In 1995, he graduated from the [National University of Singapore](/wiki/National_University_of_Singapore \"National University of Singapore\") with a First\\-Class Honours degree in English literature and was awarded the NUS Society Gold Medal for Best Student in English. His Honours thesis was on [Günter Grass](/wiki/G%C3%BCnter_Grass \"Günter Grass\")'s novel *[The Tin Drum](/wiki/The_Tin_Drum \"The Tin Drum\")* (German: *Die Blechtrommel*). His Master's thesis was on [Hermann Broch](/wiki/Hermann_Broch \"Hermann Broch\")'s novel *[The Death of Virgil](/wiki/The_Death_of_Virgil \"The Death of Virgil\")* (German: *Der Tod des Vergil*). Gwee pursued his doctoral research on the period from the [English Enlightenment](/wiki/English_Enlightenment \"English Enlightenment\") to early [German Romanticism](/wiki/German_Romanticism \"German Romanticism\") at [Queen Mary, University of London](/wiki/Queen_Mary%2C_University_of_London \"Queen Mary, University of London\").

He taught a wide range of courses on world literature, 17th\\- and 18th\\-century fiction, poetry, literary criticism, and film criticism. Apart from English literature, philosophy, and science, Gwee’s other research interests include British and German romanticism, modern German literature, Singaporean literature, and Reformation and modern theology.\n\n", "Literary career\n---------------\n\nGwee has been a full\\-time writer since leaving academia, with over 20 books to date. A popular speaker, he continues to instruct at various universities and institutions. He is sought for his opinions on literature, language, and religion and has been on the evaluation panel for several top literary awards in Singapore, Southeast Asia, and East Asia. In 2010, he was an international writer\\- and critic\\-in\\-residence at the [Toji Cultural Centre](/wiki/Toji_Cultural_Centre \"Toji Cultural Centre\") in [South Korea](/wiki/South_Korea \"South Korea\").\n\nFrom 2008 to 2011, Gwee hosted public interviews with Singaporean cultural figures at the [independent bookstore](/wiki/Independent_bookstore \"Independent bookstore\") [BooksActually](/wiki/BooksActually \"BooksActually\"). From 2013 to 2017, he ran [The Arts House](/wiki/The_Arts_House \"The Arts House\")'s \"Sing Lit 101: How to Read a Singaporean Poem\" and gave 5 seasons of public lectures on important Singaporean poems. From 2018 to 2022, he led the [National Library Board](/wiki/National_Library_Board \"National Library Board\")'s \"How to Fall in Love with Classics\" series for 10 seasons, focusing on literary classics in different mediums and genres. He also fronted [Yahoo!](/wiki/Yahoo%21 \"Yahoo!\") Singapore's flagship TV programme \"Singlish with Uncle Gwee\" for 4 seasons from 2018 to 2020\\.\n\n", "Works\n-----\n\nGwee wrote and illustrated Singapore’s first long\\-form [graphic novel](/wiki/Graphic_novel \"Graphic novel\") in English *Myth of the Stone*, published in 1993\\. Earlier such collections had involved short comic stories. *Myth of the Stone* is part\\-children's story, part\\-fantasy, and part\\-allegory and follows a boy's adventures in a realm of mismatched mythical creatures. A 20th\\-anniversary edition, with 2 new stories among its bonuses, was published by [Epigram Books](/wiki/Epigram_Books \"Epigram Books\") in 2013\\.\n\nGwee's poetry is known for its versatility and involves a wide range of styles and moods. His first verse collection is the well\\-loved *Who Wants to Buy a Book of Poems?*, published in 1998\\. It is full of linguistic play, [Singlish](/wiki/Singlish \"Singlish\") rhymes, and jabs at Singapore's social history and culture. The 2015 expanded edition *Who Wants to Buy an Expanded Edition of a Book of Poems?* contains all the poems excluded from the first edition. *[The Straits Times](/wiki/The_Straits_Times \"The Straits Times\")* named it one of the 50 greatest works of Singaporean literature in 2021\\.\n\nGwee's second verse collection is an extremely well\\-received volume of love poems titled *One Thousand and One Nights*. Poet [Cyril Wong](/wiki/Cyril_Wong \"Cyril Wong\") calls it \"shockingly tender, even heartbreaking\" while theatre director [Alvin Tan](/wiki/Alvin_Tan_%28director%29 \"Alvin Tan (director)\") praises \"\\[his] impeccable measurement of emotion, surprising use of words and relentless clarity of thought\". Gwee returned to humour poetry with *The Other Merlion and Friends* in 2015 before releasing a dark, meditative collection titled *Death Wish* in 2017\\. With *Haikuku* (2017\\) and *This Floating World* (2021\\), he brought together nearly 600 haikus written over a decade.\n\nGwee also famously writes on and in [Singlish](/wiki/Singlish \"Singlish\"). In 2017, He published *Spiaking Singlish: A Companion to How Singaporeans Communicate*, which is hailed by pioneering Singlish writer [Sylvia Toh](/wiki/Sylvia_Toh \"Sylvia Toh\") as \"the definitive book on Singlish\". In 2019, he translated [Antoine de Saint\\-Exupéry](/wiki/Antoine_de_Saint-Exup%C3%A9ry \"Antoine de Saint-Exupéry\")'s *[The Little Prince](/wiki/The_Little_Prince \"The Little Prince\")* into Singlish, making *The Leeter Tunku* the first literary classic in Singlish. His subsequent translations include [Beatrix Potter](/wiki/Beatrix_Potter \"Beatrix Potter\")'s *[The Tale of Peter Rabbit](/wiki/The_Tale_of_Peter_Rabbit \"The Tale of Peter Rabbit\")*, selected [Brothers Grimm](/wiki/Brothers_Grimm \"Brothers Grimm\")'s *[Children's and Household Tales](/wiki/Children%27s_and_Household_Tales \"Children's and Household Tales\")*, and [A. A. Milne](/wiki/A._A._Milne \"A. A. Milne\")'s *[Winnie\\-the\\-Pooh](/wiki/Winnie-the-Pooh \"Winnie-the-Pooh\")*.\n\nAs an editor, Gwee first worked on one of two seminal volumes on Singaporean and Malaysian literature in English *Sharing Borders: Studies in Contemporary Singaporean\\-Malaysian Literature*, published in 2009\\. His introduction exposes the problems of ideology that continue to plague the countries' literature in the name of postcolonial studies. In 2010, he edited the popular fiction collection *Telltale: Eleven Stories*, which was adopted as a Literature O\\-Level text.\n\nIn 2011, Gwee's human rights\\-based anthology *Man/Born/Free: Writings on the Human Spirit from Singapore* pays tribute to the life of [Nelson Mandela](/wiki/Nelson_Mandela \"Nelson Mandela\") and was launched in [Cape Town](/wiki/Cape_Town \"Cape Town\"), [South Africa](/wiki/South_Africa \"South Africa\"). In 2015, he edited the massive, two\\-volume *Singathology: 50 New Works by Celebrated Singaporean Writers*, a commemoration of [Singapore](/wiki/Singapore \"Singapore\")'s [golden jubilee](/wiki/Golden_jubilee \"Golden jubilee\").\n\n", "Public Life\n-----------\n\nSince leaving academia, Gwee has been one of few outspoken literary voices on a range of subject matters in Singapore. In 2009, during the AWARE Saga, he wrote an influential Facebook note calling on fellow Christians not to support covert action. The AWARE saga was an event in Singapore's feminist, human rights, and LGBT history that involved the leadership of the [Association of Women for Action and Research](/wiki/Association_of_Women_for_Action_and_Research \"Association of Women for Action and Research\"). Gwee objected to the imposing of any group's religious beliefs on a secular organisation and warned against its implications on Christian witness.\n\nIn 2014, when the [National Library Board](/wiki/National_Library_Board \"National Library Board\") announced the pulping of 3 children's books following a user's complaint of their LGBT themes, Gwee – with fellow writers [Adrian Tan](/wiki/Adrian_Tan \"Adrian Tan\"), [Prem Anand](/wiki/Prem_Anand \"Prem Anand\"), and [Felix Cheong](/wiki/Felix_Cheong \"Felix Cheong\") – cancelled their library event on writing humour. Gwee further called off his keynote speech at a National Schools Literature Festival that weekend. 2 of the affected books were eventually moved to the adults' section.\n\nAlso in 2014, Gwee was among the [Singapore Literature Prize](/wiki/Singapore_Literature_Prize \"Singapore Literature Prize\")'s English poetry judges when poet [Grace Chia](/wiki/Grace_Chia \"Grace Chia\") accused the prize of sexism after her collection *Cordelia* did not win. Gwee clarified, \"All entries have an equal chance of consideration for winning, and we discussed it based on that point alone, and on the strengths of the collections.\" The other judges were prominent poets [Leong Liew Geok](/wiki/Leong_Liew_Geok \"Leong Liew Geok\") and [Boey Kim Cheng](/wiki/Boey_Kim_Cheng \"Boey Kim Cheng\"). Gwee, in fact, wrote the preface to *Cordelia*.\n\nIn 2016, Gwee wrote an editorial in *[The New York Times](/wiki/The_New_York_Times \"The New York Times\")* on the growth of [Singlish](/wiki/Singlish \"Singlish\") through the decades. The Press Secretary of the [Prime Minister of Singapore](/wiki/Prime_Minister_of_Singapore \"Prime Minister of Singapore\") responded to it with a statement that sparked a month\\-long national debate. The statement charged that Gwee had \"\\[made] light of the government’s efforts to promote the mastery of standard English by Singaporeans\".\n\nOn a lighter note, in 2020, days before the [COVID\\-19 pandemic](/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic \"COVID-19 pandemic\") was declared, Irish singer [Ronan Keating](/wiki/Ronan_Keating \"Ronan Keating\") made a misleading social media post about ships not docking in Singapore due to the coronavirus. Gwee's comment \"You say it best when you say nothing at all\" – referencing words from Keating's hit song – went viral, creating a very humorous moment in the early days of the pandemic. The post was swiftly taken down.\n\nIn 2024, Gwee was among the voices disapproving of the installation of 2 colonial statues at Singapore's historic [Fort Canning Hill](/wiki/Fort_Canning_Hill \"Fort Canning Hill\"). The statues were of [East India Company](/wiki/East_India_Company \"East India Company\") official [Sir Stamford Raffles](/wiki/Sir_Stamford_Raffles \"Sir Stamford Raffles\") and botanist [Nathaniel Wallich](/wiki/Nathaniel_Wallich \"Nathaniel Wallich\"). Gwee pointed to \"a serious failure to reframe – or at least re\\-evaluate – received history 200 years later and a related insensitivity to both local history and global feelings about colonialism\" and said, \"Neutral history is lazy history. Colonialism is not neutral.\"\n\n", "Select bibliography\n-------------------\n\n### Graphic novels\n\n* *Myth of the Stone* (East Asia Book Services, 1993\\) \n* *Myth of the Stone: 20th Anniversary Edition* (Epigram Books, 2013\\) \n* *Old Man Solve Mystery* (Self\\-published, 2018\\) \n\n### Poetry\n\n* *Who Wants to Buy a Book of Poems?* (Landmark Books, 1998\\) \n* *One Thousand and One Nights* (Landmark Books, 2014\\) \n* *Who Wants to Buy an Expanded Edition of a Book of Poems?* (Landmark Books, 2015\\) \n* *The Other Merlion and Friends* (Landmark Books, 2015\\) \n* *Haikuku* (Landmark Books, 2017\\) \n* *Death Wish* (Landmark Books, 2017\\) \n* *This Floating World* (Landmark Books, 2021\\) \n\n### Non\\-fiction\n\n* *Fear No Poetry!: An Essential Guide to Close Reading* ([Ethos Books](/wiki/Ethos_Books \"Ethos Books\"), 2014\\) \n* *Spiaking Singlish: A Companion to How Singaporeans Communicate* ([Marshall\\-Cavendish International](/wiki/Marshall-Cavendish_International \"Marshall-Cavendish International\"), 2017\\) \n* *The Leeter Spiaking Singlish.

The name of the band refers to the [Bakuba Kingdom](/wiki/Bakuba_Kingdom \"Bakuba Kingdom\"); it is sometimes reported as **Empire Bakuba du Grand Kalle**, in honor of [Grand Kalle](/wiki/Grand_Kalle \"Grand Kalle\"), the \"father of Congolese music\", who was also [bandleader](/wiki/Bandleader \"Bandleader\") [Pepe Kalle](/wiki/Pepe_Kalle \"Pepe Kalle\")'s [mentor](/wiki/Mentor \"Mentor\"). The band has never formally disbanded, although its activity has been scarce since Pepe Kalle's death (in 1998\\).\n\nCore members of the group include singers [Pepe Kalle](/wiki/Pepe_Kalle \"Pepe Kalle\"), \"Papy Tex\" Matolu Dode, Dilu Dilumona, and lead singer, dancer, songwriter, choreographer and animateur Bileku Mpasi Djouna Mumbafu (Bigone). Djouna played a major role to popularize Empire Bakuba since 1980 at the age of 15 years when he was discovered by Pepe Kalle and brought into the Empire Bakuba Band, through November 1998, when Pepe Kalle died. Djouna Mumbafu continues to be active both with the current scarce Empire Bakuba band activity, and as a solo artist with his Orchestre Big One. Other members of Empire Bakuba include guitarists \"Boeing 737\" Kinanga Nanzao and \"Doris\" Ebuya Lange, Dokolos, Jolie Bebe and the dancer \"Emoro\" Tumba Ayila.\n\n", "History\n-------\n\nEmpire Bakuba was founded in 1972 by Pepe Kalle, Papy Tex and Dilu Dilumona, who were all at the time members of Lipua Lipua, and had previously been part of neighbourhood band African Choc. They quickly established themselves as one of the leading youth bands of [Kinshasa](/wiki/Kinshasa \"Kinshasa\"), becoming a constant presence in the Congolese charts and a major part of the [soukous](/wiki/Soukous \"Soukous\") scene in the 1970s and 1980s.\n\nCompared to that of other popular soukous bands of the time, such as [Zaiko Langa Langa](/wiki/Zaiko_Langa_Langa \"Zaiko Langa Langa\"), Empire Bakuba's sound was characterized by the strong influence of Congolese traditional and tribal music.<https://web.archive.org/web/20110103201112/http://worldmusic.nationalgeographic.com/view/page.basic/artist/content.artist/pepe_kalle_with_empire_bakuba_27175/en_US> This also reflects in the [kwassa kwassa](/wiki/Kwassa_kwassa \"Kwassa kwassa\"), a dance style that was popularized by Empire Bakuba and later adopted by several other Congolese acts, most notably [Kanda Bongo Man](/wiki/Kanda_Bongo_Man \"Kanda Bongo Man\") and [Koffi Olomide](/wiki/Koffi_Olomide \"Koffi Olomide\"). Empire Bakuba's live performances were highly scenographic, with frontman Pepe Kalle, who was six feet tall and weighing 300 pounds, accompanied by [dwarf](/wiki/Dwarfism \"Dwarfism\") dancer Emoro.\n\nIn 1992 the band had to face Emoro's sudden death. By this time, the apex of Empire Bakuba's success had passed, yet the group remained quite popular. Emoro was replaced by three [Pygmy](/wiki/Pygmy_peoples \"Pygmy peoples\") dancers and Empire's live performances became even more similar to [circus](/wiki/Circus \"Circus\") shows. When Pepe Kalle died in 1998, and his death was followed by a serious car accident involving Papy Tex. For a while, Empire Bakuba was considered by the media to have ceased to exist. By 1999, nevertheless, Papy Tex had recovered and become the new leader of the band, which released a few more albums. Papy Tex is still with Empire Bakuba, although the band has not been very active in recent years.\n\n", "Partial discography\n-------------------\n\nNote: The following discographic references have been retrieved from and \n* *Nazingi Maboto*\n* *Chérie Ondi* (Editions Veve 198?)\n* *Zabolo* (Rythmes et Musique 1982\\)\n* *Amour propre* (Editions Veve 1984\\)\n* *Tête africaine* (DK 1985\\)\n* *Bombe atomique* (Mélodie 1985\\)\n* *Muana Bangui* (Rythmes et Musique 1985\\)\n* *Trop c'est trop* (Rythmes et Musique 1985\\)\n* *La Belle Etoile* (Rythmes et Musique 1984\\)\n* *Bonana 85* (PF 1985\\)\n* *Kabambare* (1985\\)\n* *Livre d'or* (DV 1986\\)\n* *Dans Masassi calculé à Abidjan* (ACMP 1986\\)\n* *Adieu Dr. Nico* (Sonodisc 1986\\)\n* *Obosini Kisomele* (Syllart 1986\\)\n* *Allah* (Rythmes et Musique, 1986\\)\n* *Bakuba Show* (Syllart 1987\\)\n* *Sombokila* (Syllart 1987\\)\n* *Blanche neige* (Rythmes et Musique 1987, with [Grand Zaiko Wa Wa](/wiki/Grand_Zaiko_Wa_Wa \"Grand Zaiko Wa Wa\"))\n* *Nzoto ya chance / 8000 km*, also known as *Kwassa Kwassa* (Leader Records Repro 1987\\)\n* *Joe Dikando* (LS 1987\\)\n* *Pon Moun Paka Bougé* (Afrorythmes 1988\\)\n* *Moyibi* (Syllart 1988\\)\n* *Ya Moseka de l'Empire Bakuba* (SIC 1988\\)\n* *Show times* (1989\\)\n* *Cé Chalé Carnaval* (Afrorythmes 1989\\)\n* *Pepe Kalle chante le poète Simaro* (JM Production 1989\\)\n* *Atinze Mwana Popi* (BB 1989, reissued by Sonodisc in 1993\\)\n* *Gigantafrique* (Globestyle 1990\\)\n* *L'argent ne fait pas le bonheur* (Gefraco/Kaluila 1990\\)\n* *Mavuela Somo \\& Pepe Kalle* (MDL 1990, with [Mavuela Somo](/wiki/Mavuela_Somo \"Mavuela Somo\"))\n* *Stop feu rouge – voisin* (Bleu Caraibes 1990\\)\n* *Le tube de vos vacances: Liya Liya Faina* (SIMS/Sonodisc 1991\\)\n* *Feux d'artifice* (Sonodisc 1992\\)\n* *Hommage à Emoro* (Syllart 1992\\)\n* *Larger than Life* (Stern's STCD 1992\\)\n* *Divisé par deux* (Sonodisc 1993\\)\n* *Poto Malili: Kinshasa Moto!

The song inspired several other media, such as an autobiographical book by Uemura, as well as a special drama to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the opening of [Mainichi Broadcasting System](/wiki/Mainichi_Broadcasting_System \"Mainichi Broadcasting System\").\n\nThe song was awarded two [Japan Record Awards](/wiki/Japan_Record_Award \"Japan Record Award\") in 2010, one in the general song category along with 9 other songs, as well as Uemura being awarded the lyricist award for the song.\n\n", "Writing\n-------\n\nThe song is a ballad, beginning with a simple guitar\\-based arrangement and later expanding to a band and orchestra arrangement. The song's lyrics are an extended narrative that tell the story of Uemura and her grandmother. When she was a 3rd grader (8 years old), she lived at her grandmother's house next door to her parents, playing [gomoku](/wiki/Gomoku \"Gomoku\"), eating nanban\\-style duck noodle soup when they went out shopping, watching videotapes of the comedy program *[Yoshimoto Shinkigeki](/wiki/Yoshimoto_Shinkigeki \"Yoshimoto Shinkigeki\")* and helping her every day. Uemura was not very fond of cleaning toilets, so her grandmother told her that a beautiful goddess lives in the toilet, if she cleaned it every day, this goddess would make her into a beautiful woman. As Uemura grew older, the communication gap between her and her grandmother worsened and the two grew apart. Uemura, feeling resentful, moved away from home with her then boyfriend and rarely came home to visit. Her grandmother later became more ill and was hospitalized two years after Uemura left for Tokyo. Uemura visited her, saying \"Grandma, I'm home!\" as she used to when she was little, before the two began to fight. Her grandmother could not say much and the next morning died quietly in her sleep. Uemura believes her grandmother was waiting for her, besides being left alone from her all this time. She feels regret for hurting her grandmother and says thank you to her at the end of the song.\n\nThe song mentions several words in [Kansai dialect](/wiki/Kansai_dialect \"Kansai dialect\"), especially in the way the grandmother speaks. She adds to the ends of her sentences, and uses specifically Kansai terms, such as and , instead of standard Japanese and . Uemura thanks her grandmother by saying , as opposed to . While the song is called \"Toilet no Kamisama,\" the word is not used in the song, instead the song talks about a in the toilet.\n\nWhen Uemura met music producer Yohito Teraoka, her self\\-introduction featured the story of her grandmother. Teraoka suggested they turn this story into a song.\n\n", "Promotion\n---------\n\nThe song was first aired at [FM802](/wiki/FM802 \"FM802\"), on \"Hiro T's Morning Jam\" on January 7, 2010, and began receiving radio play in the song's full length. The song was released as a free ringtone from February 10, until March 9, when it became a paid ringtone.\n\nUemura performed at the 61st *[Kōhaku Uta Gassen](/wiki/K%C5%8Dhaku_Uta_Gassen \"Kōhaku Uta Gassen\")* New Years' singing battle. She performed the full\\-length version of \"Toilet no Kamisama.\" The performance was one of the longest in Kōhaku's history, after [Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi](/wiki/Tsuyoshi_Nagabuchi \"Tsuyoshi Nagabuchi\")'s 15 minute performance in 1990\\. She also performed the song on [Yoshimoto Shinkigeki](/wiki/Yoshimoto_Shinkigeki \"Yoshimoto Shinkigeki\")'s new years' special during the curtain call, the television show mentioned in Uemura's song.\n\n", "Music videos\n------------\n\n[thumb\\|Kana Uemura in the live\\-action music video](/wiki/File:UemurakanaToiletMV.jpg \"UemurakanaToiletMV.jpg\")\n[thumb\\|A scene from the Daisuke Hashimoto/Mari Torigoe animated version](/wiki/File:UemurakanaToiletAnimated.jpg \"UemurakanaToiletAnimated.jpg\")\n\nTwo music videos were produced for the song: a live action version directed by [Tatsuaki](/wiki/Tatsuaki \"Tatsuaki\"), which was shot on January 23, 2010, and an animated version by [Daisuke Hashimoto](/wiki/Daisuke_Hashimoto \"Daisuke Hashimoto\"), set to the version from *[Kana: My Favorite Things](/wiki/Kana:My_Favorite_Things \"My Favorite Things\")* featuring [Kotaro Oshio](/wiki/Kotaro_Oshio \"Kotaro Oshio\").\n\nThe live action version features Uemura performing the song on guitar on a sunlit river bank, interspersed with scenes of a grandmother and several different actresses portraying the scenes described in the song. The final scenes show the grandmother walking with the adolescent actress along the river bank where Uemura sung the song. The Hashimoto animated version similarly enacts the storyline from the song, featuring drawings of a grandmother and a small girl. The video's artwork is based on the *Toilet no Kamisama* picture book, illustrated by Mari Torigoe, and released in September 2010\\.\n\n", "Adaptations\n-----------\n\nThe song inspired two books by Uemura, both with the same title. The first is an autobiography released in July 2010 through [Takarajimasha](/wiki/Takarajimasha \"Takarajimasha\"), telling anecdotes about her grandmother and the process of making the song. The second is a picture book version, published through [Kodansha](/wiki/Kodansha \"Kodansha\") in September 2010\\. The version features illustrations by [Mari Torigoe](/wiki/Mari_Torigoe \"Mari Torigoe\").\n\n[Mainichi Broadcasting System, Inc.](/wiki/Mainichi_Broadcasting_System \"Mainichi Broadcasting System\") aired a two\\-hour drama based on the autobiography *Toilet no Kamisama* on January 5, 2011, on 28 stations including itself, [TBS](/wiki/Tokyo_Broadcasting_System \"Tokyo Broadcasting System\") and [CBC](/wiki/Chubu-Nippon_Broadcasting \"Chubu-Nippon Broadcasting\"), also on Akita TV on January 8\\. It was one of the programs for the 60th anniversary of the opening of MBS. The drama starred [Kii Kitano](/wiki/Kii_Kitano \"Kii Kitano\") as Uemura, and [Shima Iwashita](/wiki/Shima_Iwashita \"Shima Iwashita\") as her grandmother. The drama's plot is inspired by the events described in Uemura's *Toilet no Kamisama* autobiography, such as the death of her grandfather and her path to becoming a singer.\n\nUnder the influence of the [Tohoku earthquake and tsunami](/wiki/2011_Tohoku_earthquake_and_tsunami \"2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami\") which occurred on March 11, 2011, MBS aired the drama again on March 16, instead of
