Compound Word
In linguistics, a compound is a lexeme (less precisely, a word or sign) that consists of more than one stem. Compounding, composition or nominal composition is the process of word formation that creates compound lexemes. Compounding occurs when two or more words or signs are joined to make a longer word or sign. A compound that uses a space rather than a hyphen or concatenation is called an open compound or a spaced compound; the alternative is a closed compound. The meaning of the compound may be similar to or different from the meaning of its components in isolation. The component stems of a compound may be of the same part of speech—as in the case of the English word ''footpath'', composed of the two nouns ''foot'' and ''path''—or they may belong to different parts of speech, as in the case of the English word ''blackbird'', composed of the adjective ''black'' and the noun ''bird''. With very few exceptions, English compound words are stressed on their first component st ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Neoclassical Compounds
Neoclassical compounds are compound words composed from combining forms (which act as affixes or stems) derived from classical Latin or ancient Greek roots. New Latin comprises many such words and is a substantial component of the technical and scientific lexicon of English and other languages, via international scientific vocabulary (ISV). For example, '' bio-'' combines with ''-graphy'' to form ''biography'' ("life" + "writing/recording"). Source of international technical vocabulary Neoclassical compounds represent a significant source of Neo-Latin vocabulary. Moreover, since these words are composed from classical languages whose prestige is or was respected throughout the Western European culture, these words typically appear in many different languages. Their widespread use makes technical writing generally accessible to readers who may only have a smattering of the language in which it appears. Not all European languages have been equally receptive to neoclassical techni ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Enneagram (geometry)
In geometry, an enneagram (🟙 U+1F7D9) is a nine-pointed plane figure. It is sometimes called a nonagram, nonangle, or enneagon. The word 'enneagram' combines the numeral prefix ''ennea-'' with the Greek suffix '' -gram''. The ''gram'' suffix derives from ''γραμμῆς'' (''grammēs'') meaning a line. Regular enneagram A regular enneagram is a 9-sided star polygon. It is constructed using the same points as the regular enneagon, but the points are connected in fixed steps. Two forms of regular enneagram exist: *One form connects every second point and is represented by the Schläfli symbol . *The other form connects every fourth point and is represented by the Schläfli symbol . There is also a star figure, or 3, made from the regular enneagon points but connected as a compound of three equilateral triangles. (If the triangles are alternately interlaced, this results in a Brunnian link.) This star figure is sometimes known as the ''star of Goliath'', after or 2, th ...

Enneagram Of Personality
The Enneagram of Personality, or simply the Enneagram (from the Greek words [, meaning "nine"] and [, meaning something "written" or "drawn"]), is a model of the Psyche (psychology), human psyche which is principally understood and taught as a Psychological typologies, typology of nine interconnected personality types. Although the origins and history of many of the ideas and theories associated with the Enneagram of Personality are a matter of dispute, contemporary Enneagram theories are principally derived from the teachings of the Bolivian psycho-spiritual teacher Oscar Ichazo from the 1950s and the Chilean psychiatrist Claudio Naranjo from the 1970s. Naranjo's theories were also influenced by some earlier teachings about personality by George Gurdjieff and the Fourth Way tradition. As a typology, the Enneagram defines nine personality types (sometimes called "enneatypes"), which are represented by the points of a geometric figure called an ''Enneagram (geometry), enneagr ...

Fourth Way Enneagram
The Fourth Way enneagram is a figure published in 1949 in ''In Search of the Miraculous'' by P.D. Ouspensky, and an integral part of the Fourth Way esoteric system associated with George Gurdjieff. The term " enneagram" derives from two Greek words, ''ennea'' (nine) and ''gramma'' (something written or drawn), and was coined by Gurdjieff in the period before the 1940s. The enneagram is a nine-pointed figure usually inscribed within a circle. Within the circle is a triangle connecting points 9, 3 and 6. The inscribed figure resembling a web connects the other six points in a cyclic figure 1-4-2-8-5-7. This number is derived from or corresponds to the recurring decimal . 142857 = 1/7. These six points together with the point numbered 9 are said to represent the main stages of any complete process, and can be related to the notes of a musical octave, 9 being equivalent to "Do" and 1 to "Re" etc. The points numbered 3 and 6 are said to represent "shock points" which affect the way a ...

Enneagon
In geometry, a nonagon () or enneagon () is a nine-sided polygon or 9-gon. The name ''nonagon'' is a prefix hybrid formation, from Latin (''nonus'', "ninth" + ''gonon''), used equivalently, attested already in the 16th century in French ''nonogone'' and in English from the 17th century. The name ''enneagon'' comes from Greek ''enneagonon'' (εννεα, "nine" + γωνον (from γωνία = "corner")), and is arguably more correct, though less common than "nonagon". Regular nonagon A '' regular nonagon'' is represented by Schläfli symbol and has internal angles of 140°. The area of a regular nonagon of side length ''a'' is given by :A = \fraca^2\cot\frac=(9/2)ar = 9r^2\tan(\pi/9) :::= (9/2)R^2\sin(2\pi/9)\simeq6.18182\,a^2, where the radius ''r'' of the inscribed circle of the regular nonagon is :r=(a/2)\cot(\pi/9) and where ''R'' is the radius of its circumscribed circle: :R = \sqrt=r\sec(\pi/9). Construction Although a regular nonagon is not constructible with compa ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
