Queens Englisch

Queen's English means the standard form of either written or spoken British English regarded as correct.

Queens englisch changes from the aristocratic language to a more and more middle class language and also the royals try to hide their education behind a more middle class language and words that we know from their speeches like "hame", which the queens said, change into "home". Words like "dutay" are changed into "dutee" like the normal people say.

Advertising

Buckle up

In the picture published by the german Verkehrswacht you can se four framed pictures of four different people. On three of them are black ties at the upper left corner to show that thei are dead. In the fourth picture the black tie is used as a seatbelt and is around the body of the man who is shown in the picture. There is no sentence or anything else just these four pictures. The advertising is addressed to people sho drive cars or are driven in cars. It shows the importance of being buckled up because in the picture the three people who were not buckled up died in an car accident but the one being buckled up survived or is buckled up for his own securtity that he will not die in an car accident. The advert uses the fear of people that they could die being not buckled up and having a car accidents. Moreover the people are made to look at the advert by this three pictures with the people who seem to be dead because of the black tie. The four pictures almost look the same but like it is said above there is a little difference in the last picture the tie is used as a seatbelt. So the small change in the picture changes the whole meaning of this last picutre and this makes the difference between dead or live. It is a detail like to buckle up it does not need much time to buckle up but it makes a big difference.

Translation

Karten aus dem 13. Jahrhundert zeigen einen deutlichen Weg nach Paradis, einer Insel östlich von Indien, so unzugänglich, dass niemand beweisen konnte, dass sie ein Mythos war. Die Zielorte, die mittelalterliche Gelehrte auf mittelalterlichen Karten einzeichneten erscheinen dem modernen Reisenden auf lächerliche Weise naiv. Jetzt, mehr denn je, führen wir die naive Suche nach dem verlorengegangenen Ideal Paradies fort.

Heute, mit dem 30. Geburtstag der Bibel der Rucksacktouristen, Lonely Planet, war die Suche nach Abenteuern noch nie so weit verbreitet. Exotische Urlaubsziele, außerhalb der Reichweite einer Familie der Siebziger, sind nun leicht zu erreichen. Ursprünglich war der Reiseführer ein Steuermann für den mittellosen und mutigen jungen Menschen - ein Gegensatz zu dem Luxus des mehr konservativen Urlaubs. Mit Erschließung solch abgelegener Ziele zeit der bekannte Reiseführer Lonely Planet nun dem Weg für den Massenmarkt. Die Autoren waren glücklich genug zu einer Zeit, als der Urlaubsmarkt sich grundlegend veränderte, voller INspirationen gewesen zu sein.
