India Minus-A Journey of Unfulfilled Dreams
India Minus-A Journey of Unfulfilled Dreams
Raja Sharma
The room was very neat and clean but it was distinctly devoid of any other human activity because everything seemed to have experienced a long desuetude. Most of her time would be spent in cleaning the household goods, though she knew very well that no one was going to ever visit her. Somewhere in the dark corner of her heart she vainly believed that one day her husband and children would come back...............

A Dictionary of Shakespearean Terms
A Dictionary of Shakespearean Terms
Students' Academy
William Shakespeare used very rich and colorful language in his works, but many of those words and terms are not in use nowadays and cannot be found in modern dictionaries. William Shakespeare's works sometimes appears to have a language of its own.
Indeed, William Shakespeare did in fact invent many of the words that he used and these are documented in this Dictionary of Shakespearean Terms. Inventing new words to the English language seems to be a definite objective for Shakespeare! The words coined by Shakespeare are explained with their full origins and meanings.
Shakespeare translations and understanding the real meanings behind some of the Shakespeare language in the great plays and sonnets can be difficult. And this is hardly surprising when the expressions and their meanings have been obsolete since the Elizabethan era!
William Shakespeare was not born to the nobility and his Elizabethan education was quite basic as he left school at the age of 13 and never attended University. Neither of his parents could read or write - a dictionary was not that important during the era! Yet his vocabulary was massive for a man of his background.
A total of 15,000 different words were used in his plays and a further 7000 were used in his poems and sonnets. This gave him a vocabulary of 21,000 words when the average vocabulary of the day in Stratford, England, was less than 500. Even by today's standards, the most celebrated authors do not exceed an average of 7500 words (The poet, John Milton was an exception and his totaled about 8000) and the average English speaking person only has about 2,000 words in their vocabulary. For a person with a University degree this range in vocabulary would rise to about 3000 to 4000.
This is the only dictionary which has been composed in such a simple way that even a layman can easily find the meaning of any Shakespearean term.

...but you're used to that right? So you have every reason to stay optimistic and confident. And even more so when you're armed with the powerful strategies for winning scholarships that 90% of applicants DON'T know!
The Hard Truth About
Winning College Scholarships...
Did you know that most people DON'T use scholarships to pay for college? And many don't even apply?

What these people don't know, and what you now know is, there are literally thousands of scholarships ready for you to apply for. Not all of them are for perfect students. (Let's face it, most students aren't perfect. Are you?)
The truth is, if you want to win college scholarships, you need to start applying!
"Can I Really Pay For College With Scholarships?"
Scholarships come in all shapes and sizes. Some are huge and will pay for most or all of your college. But those aren't all. You can win scholarships for a few hundred here, a few thousand there — and they really add up fast!
