  • Phonetic Guide
    Phonetic Guide Fiji Introduction Fijian uses the Roman alphabet, as do English and most European languages, but some of the letters represent sounds in ways that are unexpected for English speakers. The following letters present no problems, as they represent the same sounds as they do in English spelling: f, h, l, m, n, s, w, and y. The vowels are a little different from English – and how different they are, depends on what kind of English you speak. But if you are a speaker of German, Italian or Spanish, you should have no problems at all, because the five vowels (a, e, i, o, u) are pronounced almost exactly the same. The pronunciation is roughly as follows: a as in 'spa' e as in 'pet' i as in 'machine' o as in 'sore' u as in 'too' Two vowels together retain their original pronunciation (unlike in English), so that lai is pronounced like 'lie', cei like 'they', kau like 'cow', and so on. There are some differences in the pronunciation of consonants that English speakers need to bear in mind: b, d have a preceding nasal consonant, so b sounds like 'mb' and d like 'nd' k, p, t are as in English, but without the puff of breath that usually follows. Also, t often sounds like 'ch' before the vowel i, so oti is often pronounced as if it were oji ('ochi'). r is rolled, as in Scottish English, Spanish, etc. v is pronounced by placing the lips together (not with the lower lip against the upper teeth as in English).

  • Pdf Skarb Fana Rugby
    SKARB FANA RUGBY Cześć i czołem wszystkim fanom rugby w kraju nad Wisłą! Wiem, że nie zdążyłem przed początkiem Pucharu Świata 2019, wiem również, że wiele liczb, które tutaj zawarłem, już się zdezaktualizowało, ale mimo wszystko – polecam Waszej przychylności autorski (i amatorski) „skarb kibica” Rugby World Cup 2019. W założeniu miał być to materiał o wiele obszerniejszy i bogatszy w treści, ale w pojedynkę zdążyłem tylko przygotować pełne składy wszystkich zespołów i najważniejsze informacje o każdej z nich. Może ktoś z Was podobnie jak ja lubi grzebać w takich rzeczach i w przyszłości przygotujemy takie „wydawnictwa” we współpracy? Oczywiście połapiecie się bez problemu w poszczególnych kolumnach w kadrach, ale na wszelki wypadek wyjaśnię – w kolejnych rubrykach wypisałem: imię i nazwisko, wiek (rocznikowo), datę urodzenia, wzrost/wagę, mecze, przyłożenia i punkty w reprezentacji, klub (lub prowincję), poprzednie edycje RWC oraz mecze, punkty i przyłożenia w nich. W przypadku Nowej Zelandii – podaję franczyzę Super Rugby i prowincję, w przypadku Australii – franczyzę SR i drużynę w National Rugby Championship, a w przypadku Japonii – zaznaczam, czy dany zawodnik grał w ostatnim sezonie dla Sunwolves i gdzie występuje w lidze japońskiej. Ponadto znajdziecie bilans wszystkich szkoleniowców w ich selekcjonerskiej kadencji oraz graczy, którzy mogą liczyć na potencjalne dowołania. Dołączyłem też tabelę wszech czasów dotychczasowych turniejów o Puchar Webba Ellisa z uwzględnieniem punktów bonusowych. Doskonale wiem, że tego typu zestawienia nie mogą równać się z informacjami dostępnymi w internecie – zwłaszcza pod względem aktualności – i możecie powiedzieć: „nie ma tutaj niczego, czego nie znalazłbym w sieci”. I to prawda. Ale wymagałoby to poklikania w przynajmniej kilka miejsc (nawet oficjalna strona turnieju w tym zakresie kompletna nie jest), a niniejsze opracowanie pokazuje przynajmniej orientacyjnie, kto jakim dorobkiem może się pochwalić.
