Hundred Of Mudla Wirra
The Hundred of Mudla Wirra is a cadastral unit of hundred located on the northern Adelaide Plains of South Australia, first proclaimed in 1847.

History The hundred was proclaimed on 29 November 1847 in the County of Gawler and named by Governor Frederick Robe, (at the same time as all the other Hundreds in Counties of Gawler, Light & Sturt were declared). The name ''mudla wirra'' comes from the Kaurna language, but may have been misinterpreted in multiple sources, perhaps arising from the online version of Manning's Index. It has been reported that ''mudla'' means" implement", giving rise to the translation "a forest where implements are obtained", but in a newer publication (revised in 2012), Manning writes " Professor Tindale says that an alternative derivation is based on the word ''mudla'' meaning ‘nose’" (as in the Kaurna name for the Lefevre Peninsula, ''mudlanga''), and o ...

Linguistic Description
In the study of language, description or descriptive linguistics is the work of objectively analyzing and describing how language is actually used (or how it was used in the past) by a speech community. François & Ponsonnet (2013). All academic research in linguistics is descriptive; like all other scientific disciplines, it seeks to describe reality, without the bias of preconceived ideas about how it ought to be. Modern descriptive linguistics is based on a structural approach to language, as exemplified in the work of Leonard Bloomfield and others. This type of linguistics utilizes different methods in order to describe a language such as basic data collection, and different types of elicitation methods. Descriptive vs. prescriptive linguistics Linguistic description is often contrasted with linguistic prescription, — entry for "Descriptivism and prescriptivism" quotation: "Contrasting terms in linguistics." (p.286) which is found especially in education and in publish ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
