  2. English possessive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_possessive

    The possessive form of an English noun, or more generally a noun phrase, is made by suffixing a morpheme which is represented orthographically as ' s (the letter s preceded by an apostrophe), and is pronounced in the same way as the regular English plural ending (e)s: namely, as / ɪ z / when following a sibilant sound (/ s /, / z /, / ʃ /, / ʒ /, / tʃ / or / dʒ /), as / s / when following ...

  3. Apostrophe - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostrophe

    When a coordinate possessive construction has two personal pronouns, the normal possessive inflection is used, and there is no apostrophe (e.g., "his and her children"). The issue of the use of the apostrophe arises when the coordinate construction includes a noun (phrase) and a pronoun.

  4. Plücker coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plücker_coordinates

    Each Plücker coordinate appears in two of the four equations, each time multiplying a different variable; and as at least one of the coordinates is nonzero, we are guaranteed non-vacuous equations for two distinct planes intersecting in L. Thus the Plücker coordinates of a line determine that line uniquely, and the map α is an injection.

  5. TI calculator character sets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TI_calculator_character_sets

    As part of the design process, Texas Instruments (TI) decided to modify the base Latin-1 character set for use with its calculator interface. By adding symbols to the character set, it was possible to reduce design complexity as much more complex parsing would have to have been used otherwise.

  6. Coordination (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_(linguistics)

    The totality of coordinator(s) and conjuncts forming an instance of coordination is called a coordinate structure. The unique properties of coordinate structures have motivated theoretical syntax to draw a broad distinction between coordination and subordination. [1] It is also one of the many constituency tests in linguistics. Coordination is ...

  7. Ditto mark - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ditto_mark

    The ditto mark is a shorthand sign, used mostly in hand-written text, indicating that the words or figures above it are to be repeated. [1] [2]The mark is made using "a pair of apostrophes"; [1] "a pair of marks " used underneath a word"; [3] the symbol " (quotation mark); [2] [4] or the symbol ” (right double quotation mark).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_interactive...

    On the contrary, some constructions in continuous programs (so far only Cinderella and GeoGebra), depend on the number of hidden parameters and in such a way that moving a given point produces a continuous motion of the construction, as a result, if the point is moved back to the original position the result of construction might be different.

  9. Curvilinear coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_coordinates

    A vector v (red) represented by • a vector basis (yellow, left: e 1, e 2, e 3), tangent vectors to coordinate curves (black) and • a covector basis or cobasis (blue, right: e 1, e 2, e 3), normal vectors to coordinate surfaces (grey) in general (not necessarily orthogonal) curvilinear coordinates (q 1, q 2, q 3). The basis and cobasis do ...
