This is part 1 of 6 in a brief series describing the history of English and its grammar.

What is Grammar?

A grammar is a set of rules for the communal use of a language. A language can never become a truly national language unless all users of that language share common rules for how words are invented, used and strung together in sentences.  When by some means the users of a language no longer share these rules, the language fragments into dialects and eventually, new languages.  It is useful to think of dialects as not being quite so large an obstacle as different languages are to trade, commerce and exchange of ideas between regions.

LONDON, April 22 /PRNewswire/ --

The current economic slow down and fear of recession have resulted in restricted budgetary allocations for intrusion detection in commercial as well as residential sectors across Europe. However, the need for security and falling prices will sustain demand for wireless-based intrusion detection systems across Europe.

New analysis from Frost Sullivan (http://www.autoid.frost.com) Opportunities in the European Intrusion Detection Systems Markets, finds that the market earned revenues of euro 1,088.1 million in 2007 and estimates this to reach euro 1,271.6 million by 2014.

I recently came across a radio lecture given by Dr Lee Alan Dugatkin on 7.6.2007, titled "Is Goodness Natural?" It deserves comment. (An article on the same subject but with some differences in text was published at Huffington Post.)

The talk began well with some historical background describing the attempts by Charles Darwin, Thomas Huxley, Peter Kropotkin and W. D. Hamilton to explain the origin of goodness, (in the sense of being nice to one another,) in light of evolutionary theory. He concluded that the first three had failed to adequately explain goodness, (Kropotkin’s great work “Ethics” was obviously overlooked) but that Hamilton had solved the dilemma with a “simple but elegant mathematical equation.”
