Etchings of the first quarter of 2020

 Book: Etchings of the first quarter of 2020.

Author: @authorsabarna



The book is basically divided into two elegant volume:

🌻 Letters and conversations part

🌻Winter Poems Part


The protagonist is Babazula. He's married and has a stepdaughter Tulip.

🌻 Letters and conversations part was further divided into three:

🥀Letter to Tulip: 

Babazula was invited to "Kolkata literary meet" as a panel member to discuss about "Dark side of the mind". So, he wanted to meet his step daughter who's staying there

In the letter,Babazula talks about Tulip's mom, her biological father and how she has grown up all these years, and invites her to a coffee session to discuss about duality and marine conservation on which she's venturing into.

🥀 Letter to Suranjana

He first thanks Suranjana and gives his opinion on child molesters and violators of women. He then critically analyses the characters Humbert and Lolita. However,  his opinion was neither a majority view nor a minority view.

🥀 Conversation between Babazula and Tulip.

This part a bit lengthy. They discussed about various social, economical,  political and ecological issues. However,  the emphasis was laid on schizophrenia and duality concepts.


🌻Winter poems.

These poems added more beauty to the book. The poetry collections were random. You could pick any of the poems first and continue to read. My favourite poem was the Alter ego,  Sandy. Yup,  it's the one comes up first in "Letter to a step-daughter". 


The language usage was good. The writing style of the author was moderate and firm. This is why at times you may not feel much engaged. The characters were sketched beautifully. The author had captured the root of problems and tried to lay a neutral view on those issues. You could gather a lot of knowledge within few pages of the book. 


And I think it's "not for beginners" book. However,  if you want to,  you can surely go for it😊.


My wishes to the author @authorsabarna💐

The linguistic affinities and divergences between the phonetic systems of Korean and Dravidian languages

T  his article delves into the linguistic affinities and divergences between the phonetic systems of Korean and Dravidian languages, drawing insights from Chapter 1 of "A Comparative Grammar Of The Korean Language and the Dravidian Languages of India" by Homer B. Hulbert. In this seminal work, Hulbert explores the intricate parallels and distinctions that exist between these two language families, shedding light on their historical connections and typological characteristics. By examining phonemic contrasts, phonotactic patterns, and other phonological features, Hulbert offers a comprehensive analysis that enriches our understanding of linguistic diversity and evolution. Through this exploration, we aim to uncover the shared linguistic heritage and unique traits that define both Korean and Dravidian languages, contributing to a deeper appreciation of their rich cultural and linguistic significance.  fig.1: Similarities between Tamil ( தமிழ் ) and Korean ( 한글 ), the word ...

Null hypothesis Vs. Alternative hypothesis

  Null hypothesis Vs. Alternative hypothesis A hypothesis is a claim or statement about a population parameter. Usually, the results of a sample are applied to generalize on an entire population(s). For example, in a class of 30 students, 12 students are sampled for their test scores. The result is that the average score is 83. This result would, however, vary with another sample. A hypothesis can be a null hypothesis or an alternative hypothesis. A null hypothesis is a statement what the majority holds to be true. The opposite or complement of a null hypothesis is an alternative hypothesis. Let us understand a problem: A light bulb manufacturer claims that the average life of their light bulb is 1000 hours. A worker believes it is not 1000 hours. He tests the claim by taking a sample of 500 bulbs. A null hypothesis (Ho) is an accepted truth and assumes that the alternative claim is false. An alternative hypothesis(H1) is what the researcher is trying to prove. In this problem, the...

BIOLOGICAL ANNIHILATION _6TH MASS EXTINCTION_2100 NO EARTH ✅

During the past 500 million years, there were five "mass extinctions". This was a  study by Gerardo Paul Ehrlich and Rodolfo.  The big five mass extinctions Late Devonian, 375 million years before - 75% of species lost. End Permian, 251 million years before - 96% of species lost. End Triassic, 200 million years before - 80% of species lost. End Cretaceous, 66 million years before - 76% of all species lost.  Scientists say we've entered a sixth mass extinction.  According to a  new study , humans are the primary cause. Earth is on the verge of sixth mass extinction.  Scientists warn that the "6th mass extinction" of wildlife is more severe than perceived. Scientists had analyzed both common and rare species of animals world. The Earth’s sixth mass extinction is more severe than thought. It would appear by just counting lost or surviving species. The population of all species is in decline. Their only natural habitat is decreasing worse. ...
