Iota Lambda Rho has organized to achieve this end and has developed a program which I fully believe is consistent with the goals and objectives with the International Business Fraternity, Delta Sigma Pi. The students through this organization are attempting to attain better understanding not only between the students and faculty, but between the two universities. The fraternity attempts to provide students with a greater understanding of their fields of interests by having speakers and tours of businesses and industries in the surrounding area to accomplish this worthwhile end. On behalf of the administration of Indiana University-Purdue University at Fort Wayne, I highly recommend that these young men and women be chartered by the International Fraternity of Delta Sigma Pi.

In organizing this fraternity they have been able to utilize their knowledge fromi business courses and job experiencies; and they will continue to utilize this in the years ahead.

They began organizing last spring se mester and had Mike Eikenberry from Fort Wayne National Bank as their first quest speaker; they also toured International Harvester, thus meeting some of the goals and objectives of Delta Sigma Pi. During fall semester they have become more well known both on campus and in the community. Mr. Dale Ferrier, President of Indiana Wire Die Company was their first guest speaker and was quite impressive. Other speakers included Joan Uebelhoer, County Auditor, and Bill Whitten, broker. Their tours included General Telephone Company in August, Peter Eckrich business offices in September; and Chicago Federal Reserve Board of Trade, and First National Bank in October. The representatives of Peter Eckrich were quite impressed with these young men and women and have invited them to return. The frate2mity members are also becoming active with other orga nizations on canpus for greater unity and promotion of social activities. They are currently sponsoring, along with the other Greek fraternities and sororities, a formal dance on October 29. They are also planning to participate in the annual Penny Carnival to raise money for our Day Care Center. We are hoping this will alleviate apathy on caitpus and involve the students in the many activities provided. I would highly recommend that the members of Iota Lambda Pho be come charter members of the national business fraternity. Delta Sigma Pi. Robert S.

We also distinguish smooth and rough breathing marks and learn the sounds of Greek diphthongs. Finally, we practice reading a few Greek words, such as Ἀχαιός, ἴφθιμος, and προϊάπτω.

  • The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module B) the Letters and Pronunciation of the Greek Alphabet 2 Phonology (Part 2)
    The Greek Alphabet Sight and Sounds of the Greek Letters (Module B) The Letters and Pronunciation of the Greek Alphabet 2 Phonology (Part 2) Lesson Two Overview 2.0 Introduction, 2-1 2.1 Ten Similar Letters, 2-2 2.2 Six Deceptive Greek Letters, 2-4 2.3 Nine Different Greek Letters, 2-8 2.4 History of the Greek Alphabet, 2-13 Study Guide, 2-20 2.0 Introduction Lesson One introduced the twenty-four letters of the Greek alphabet. Lesson Two continues to present the building blocks for learning Greek phonics by merging vowels and consonants into syllables. Furthermore, this lesson underscores the similarities and dissimilarities between the Greek and English alphabetical letters and their phonemes. Almost without exception, introductory Greek grammars launch into grammar and vocabulary without first firmly grounding a student in the Greek phonemic system. This approach is appropriate if a teacher is present. However, it is little help for those who are “going at it alone,” or a small group who are learning NTGreek without the aid of a teacher’s pronunciation. This grammar’s introductory lessons go to great lengths to present a full-orbed pronunciation of the Erasmian Greek phonemic system. Those who are new to the Greek language without an instructor’s guidance will welcome this help, and it will prepare them to read Greek and not simply to translate it into their language. The phonic sounds of the Greek language are required to be carefully learned. A saturation of these sounds may be accomplished by using the accompanying MP3 audio files.

  • Accent Features and Idiodictionaries
    PhD Dissertation Accent Features and Idiodictionaries: On Improving Accuracy for Accented Speakers in ASR Michael Tjalve Department of Phonetics and Linguistics University College London March 2007 Declaration I, Michael Tjalve, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Copyright The copyright of this thesis rests with the author and no quotation from it or information derived from it may be published without the prior written consent of the author. 2007 Michael Tjalve ii ABSTRACT One of the most widespread approaches to dealing with the problem of accent variation in ASR has been to choose the most appropriate pronunciation dictionary for the speaker from a predefined set of dictionaries. This approach is weak in two ways: firstly that accent types are more numerous and more variable than can be captured in a few dictionaries, even if the knowledge were available to create them; and secondly, accents vary in the composition and phonotactics of the phone inventory not just in which phones are used in which word. In this work, we identify not the speaker's accent, but accent features which allow us to predict by rule their likely pronunciation of all words in the dictionary. Any given speaker is associated with a set of accent features, but it is not a requirement that those features constitute a known accent. We show that by building a pronunciation dictionary for an individual, an idiodictionary , recognition accuracy can be improved over a system using standard accent dictionaries.

  • Romanization of Greek 1 Romanization of Greek
    Romanization of Greek 1 Romanization of Greek Romanization of Greek is the representation of Greek language texts, that are usually written in the Greek alphabet, with the Latin alphabet, or a system for doing so. There are several methods for the romanization of Greek, especially depending on whether the language written with Greek letters is Ancient Greek or Modern Greek and whether a phonetic transcription or a graphemic transliteration is intended. The conventional rendering of classical Greek names in English originates in the way Latin represented Greek loanwords in antiquity. The ⟨κ⟩ is replaced with ⟨c⟩, the diphthongs ⟨αι⟩ and ⟨οι⟩ are rendered as ⟨ae⟩ and ⟨oe⟩ (or ⟨æ, œ⟩); and ⟨ει⟩ and ⟨ου⟩ are simplified to ⟨i⟩ and ⟨u⟩. In modern scholarly transliteration of Ancient Greek, ⟨κ⟩ will instead be rendered as ⟨k⟩, and the vowel combinations ⟨αι, οι, ει, ου⟩ as ⟨ai, oi, ei, ou⟩ respectively. The letters ⟨θ⟩ and ⟨φ⟩ are generally rendered as ⟨th⟩ and ⟨ph⟩; ⟨χ⟩ as either ⟨ch⟩ or ⟨kh⟩; and word-initial ⟨ρ⟩ as ⟨rh⟩. For Modern Greek, there are multiple different transcription conventions. They differ widely, depending on their purpose, on how close they stay to the conventional letter correspondences of Ancient Greek–based transcription systems, and to what degree they attempt either an exact letter-by-letter transliteration or rather a phonetically based transcription. Standardized formal transcription systems have been defined by the International Organization for Standardization (as ISO 843), by the United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names, by the Library of Congress, and others. The different systems can create confusion.
