Translatr : traduire un texte en plusieurs langues Ancient Scripts: Home CIE 1931 color space The CIE 1931 color spaces are the first defined quantitative links between physical pure colors (i.e. wavelengths) in the electromagnetic visible spectrum, and physiological perceived colors in human color vision. The mathematical relationships that define these color spaces are essential tools for color management. They allow one to translate different physical responses to visible radiation in color inks, illuminated displays, and recording devices such as digital cameras into a universal human color vision response. CIE 1931 RGB color space and CIE 1931 XYZ color space were created by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1931.[1][2] The CIE XYZ color space was derived from a series of experiments done in the late 1920s by William David Wright[3] and John Guild.[4] Their experimental results were combined into the specification of the CIE RGB color space, from which the CIE XYZ color space was derived.

L'écriture inclusive, que les antiféministes adorent détester "Souiller la langue française avec ce genre d'inepties pour incultes ne sauvera pas les femmes du harcèlement de rue ou de l'excision !" "Les poèmes de Musset et de Hugo auraient été be·lles·aux écrits comme ça... Bande d'abrutis". Relayé mardi 15 août sur les réseaux sociaux, l'article des Echos intitulé "L'écriture inclusive : et si on s'y mettait tou·te·s ?" a été vilipendé sur Twitter. Cette méthode d'écriture, promue par de nombreux militant·e·s féministes, vise à adopter une grammaire et une typographie qui rendent les femmes plus visibles dans notre langue. Qu'est-ce que l'écriture inclusive ? L'écriture inclusive est une technique d'écriture qui englobe des règles de grammaire et de syntaxe permettant d'assurer une représentation plus égalitaire des femmes et des hommes dans la langue française. La règle grammaticale selon laquelle le masculin l'emporte sur le féminin est également dans le viseur des partisans de l'écriture inclusive. Concrètement, comment l'utilise-t-on ?
Delta (letter) A river delta (originally, the Nile River delta) is so named because its shape approximates the upper-case letter delta (the shape is a triangle). Despite a popular legend, this use of the word delta was not coined by Herodotus.[2] In Ancient Greek, delta represented a voiced dental plosive /d/. In Modern Greek, it represents a voiced dental fricative /ð/, like the "th" in "that" or "this". The upper-case letter Δ can be used to denote: The Laplace operator: The discriminant of a polynomial equation, especially the quadratic equation: The area of a triangle The lower-case letter δ (or 𝛿) can be used to denote: On Microsoft Windows, a small delta can be generated by typing Alt+235. On OS X, option-j yields an upper-case delta (∆). Greek Delta / Coptic DaldaLatin DeltaTechnical and Mathematical symbolsMathematical Delta These characters are used only as mathematical symbols.
English is one of the world's "weirdest" languages, say linguists Is English a “weird” language? Many of us might feel this is true when we’re trying to explain its complex spelling rules, or the meanings of idioms such as “it’s raining cats and dogs” to someone who is learning it. Teaching or learning any language is, however, never an easy task. But what is a “weird” language anyway? As linguists, we generally aim to be as objective as possible in the study of human language. We view ourselves as language scientists who make hypotheses about how humans use language and test them against linguistic data. Some computational linguists have, however, used data in the World Atlas of Language Structures (WALS) to explore (tongue firmly in cheek) which languages might be considered the “weirdest.” Their aim was to find out which languages had the largest number of features that differed most from other languages. Critics though have claimed the survey indulged in cherry-picking only a few features of the world’s many languages. English sounds strange
