A Dal 2016 Frenreisz Károly 2015-12-15
A, or a, is the first letter and the first vowel of the Latin alphabet, used in the modern English alphabet, the alphabets of other western European languages and others worldwide. Its name in English is ''a'' (pronounced ), plural ''aes''. It is similar in shape to the Ancient Greek letter alpha, from which it derives. The uppercase version consists of the two slanting sides of a triangle, crossed in the middle by a horizontal bar. The lowercase version can be written in two forms: the double-storey a and single-storey ɑ. The latter is commonly used in handwriting and fonts based on it, especially fonts intended to be read by children, and is also found in italic type. In English grammar, " a", and its variant " an", are indefinite articles. History The earliest certain ancestor of "A" is aleph (also written 'aleph), the first letter of the Phoenician alphabet, which consisted entirely of consonants (for that reason, it is also called an abjad to distinguish it fro ...

Locomotiv GT (album)
''Locomotiv GT'' is the debut album of Hungarian rock group Locomotiv GT, released in December 1971. Compared to other Hungarian music albums of the time, the sound of ''Locomotiv GT'' was heavier (most reminiscent of ''Éjszakai országút'', released by Omega in 1970), and with the exception of "Ezüst nyár", the album lacked so-called hits. That was the result of a conscious decision made by the group; they intended to play high-quality rock music reminiscent of contemporary English and American groups. Unlike albums released by LGT in the second half of the 1970s, the instrumentation of ''Locomotiv GT'' is somewhat simple, the saxophone being the only "exotic" instrument. The music is built around the virtuoso guitar playing of Barta, and the masterful organ playing of Presser; in addition, Frenreisz plays his bass more powerfully than most of his Hungarian peers, and the drumming of Laux is also worth to mention. The style of the songs does not really fit in with the typical H ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It is the administrative center of the county (comitatus or 'megye') of the same name.
