Word 'O' the Day

Good morning So Cal friends and friendly visitors!

I'm thinking this is where the phrase, "coined a term" came from.

koine

\koy-NAY\ noun


Meaning
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
1 capitalized : the Greek language commonly spoken and written in eastern Mediterranean countries in the Hellenistic and Roman periods
*2 : a dialect or language of a region that has become the common or standard language of a larger area


Example Sentence
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
Koines inevitably developed in the early British colonies as different dialects converged.<!-- Advertising Text Box (for Encycl. Britannica) BEGINS --><!-- Advertising Text Box (for Encycl. Britannica) ENDS -->


Did you know?
<TABLE cellSpacing=0 cellPadding=0 border=0><TBODY><TR><TD></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>
Koine, which means "common" or "shared" in Greek, was the language spoken in the eastern Mediterranean countries from the 4th century B.C. until the time of the Byzantine emperor Justinian (mid-6th century A.D.). In linguistics, the word "koine" is applied to a language developed from contact between dialects of the same language over a large region. Basically, a koine adopts those grammatical and lexical elements from the dialects of the region that are easily recognized by most area speakers and dispenses with those that are not.

Mornin everyone happy monday

One of my best friends got married Saturday night, it was a great wedding. I love to be apart of weddings when they are for true friends.
I had such a great time! It been quite a while since I got drunk and made a 100 new friends. Im such the life of the party when I drink (so im told and the pictures usually prove)
I will post up some pics when I get them tonight.
Both my patents and wifes parents were at the wedding so it was nice that they were able to take care of the baby, giving the wife and I the chance to drink and be marry with out worrying about anything.

Have a good day everyone!

Nope, and it's not even windy here. Maybe a slight breeze. My wife says Fontana is getting blown away.
