The Ville, St
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things already mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with pronouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of pronoun ''thee'') when followed by a ...

Somerville College, Oxford
Somerville College, a constituent college of the University of Oxford in England, was founded in 1879 as Somerville Hall, one of its first two women's colleges. Among its alumnae have been Margaret Thatcher, Indira Gandhi, Dorothy Hodgkin, Iris Murdoch, Vera Brittain and Dorothy L. Sayers. It began admitting men in 1994. Its library is one of Oxford's largest college libraries. The college's liberal tone derives from its founding by social liberals, as Oxford's first non-denominational college for women, unlike the Anglican Lady Margaret Hall, the other to open that year. In 1964, it was among the first to cease locking up at night to stop students staying out late. No gowns are worn at formal halls. In 2021 it was recognised as a sanctuary campus by City of Sanctuary UK. It is one of three colleges to offer undergraduates on-site lodging throughout their course. It stands near the Science Area, University Parks, Oxford University Press, Jericho and Green Templeton, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
The Ville (video Game)
''The Ville'' is a defunct game by Zynga released on June 30, 2012 in which the object was to earn experience points by building a house and talking with neighbors. The game depended on energy, coins, and cash like many other Zynga games, but it also depended on happiness. Happiness could be earned by talking to neighbors. Lawsuit On August 3, 2012, EA sued Zynga, claiming that The Ville infringed on the copyright of ''The Sims Social''. EA publicly stated that "Maxis isn't the first studio to claim that Zynga copied its creative product. But we are the studio that has the financial and corporate resources to stand up and do something about it." EA added that the lawsuit was not just to uphold their copyright, but "for creative teams who feel that their hard work and imaginations have been ripped off". Zynga responded that EA misunderstood copyright law, and that it's "ironic that EA brings this suit shortly after launching ''SimCity Social'' which bears an uncanny resemblance to ...
