A parallel set of formations, where -s 3 has no plural value, are adjectives denoting socially unacceptable or inconvenient states ; cf. -ers. Also,-es.

g

The letter G was introduced in the Old Latin period as a variant of ‹c› to distinguish voiced /ɡ/ from voiceless /k/. The recorded originator of ‹g› is freedman Spurius Carvilius Ruga, the first Roman to open a fee-paying school, who taught around 230 BC. At this time ‹k› had fallen out of favor, and ‹c›, which had formerly represented both /ɡ/ and /k/ before open vowels, had come to express /k/ in all environments.

Ruga''s positioning of ‹g› shows that alphabetic order, related to the letters'' values as Greek numerals, was a concern even in the 3rd century BC. Sampson suggests that: "Evidently the order of the alphabet was felt to be such a concrete thing that a new letter could be added in the middle only if a ''space'' was created by the dropping of an old letter." According to some records, the original seventh letter, ‹z›, had been purged from the Latin alphabet somewhat earlier in the 3rd century BC by the Roman censor Appius Claudius, who found it distasteful and foreign.

Eventually, both velar consonants /k/ and /ɡ/ developed palatalized allophones before front vowels, leading to the situation today''s Romance languages where, ‹c› and ‹g› have different sound values depending on context. Because of French influence, English also has this feature in its orthography.

m

The letter M is derived from the Phoenician Mem, via the Greek Mu . Semitic Mem probably originally pictured water. It is known that Semitic people working in Egypt c. 2000 BC borrowed a hieroglyph for "water" that was first used for an alveolar nasal
2. molarity, molar concentration, M, concentration
usage: concentration measured by the number of moles of solute per liter of solvent
3. thousand, one thousand, 1000, M, K, chiliad, G, grand, thou, yard, large integer
usage: the cardinal number that is the product of 10 and 100
4. M, letter, letter of the alphabet, alphabetic character

priestley

A surname.
This interesting surname is of Anglo-Saxon origin, and is either a topographical name from Priestley in Bedfordshire, Prestolee , Prestolee in South East Lancashire, or a topographical name from residence in or near a priest''s meadow. The derivation is from the Olde English pre 7th Century "preost", priest, parson, with "leah", glade, grove, meadow, pasture-land. Topographical surnames were among the earliest created, since both natural and man-made features in the landscape provided easily recognizable distinguishing names in the small communities of the Middle Ages. Locational names were originally given to local landowners, and the lord of the manor, and especially as a means of identification to those who left their place of origin to settle elsewhere. Early examples of the surname include: Richard de Presteley and Walter Prestlegh . On May 12th 1671, Henry Priestley and Ann White were married in Toddington, Bedfordshire. A Coat of Arms granted to William Priestley of Yorkshire circa 1272, is a red shield, on a chevron between three silver towers, issuing out of each a gold demi lion rampant, as many black grappling-irons. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of Samson de Presteleia, which was dated 1198, in the "Pipe Rolls of Bedfordshire", during the reign of King Richard 1, known as "Richard the Lionheart", 1189 - 1199.

lyndhurst

Lyndhurst is the largest village within the New Forest, Hampshire, England. It is often called the "Capital of the New Forest" and is a popular tourist location with many independent shops, art galleries, cafés, restaurants, pubs and hotels. Lyndhurst is also home to the New Forest Centre, formerly the New Forest Museum.
Although Lyndhurst itself does not have a central railway station, it had traditionally been served by Lyndhurst Road station, three miles away, which has recently been renamed Ashurst New Forest, despite remaining in exactly the same place on the Lyndhurst road! It is also only four miles from Brockenhurst - both stations are on the South Western Main Line to London and Weymouth. Bus service operated by Wilts & Dorset run frequently to Southampton and Lymington, also several times each weekday to Ringwood. There are also two daily National Express coach departures to London Victoria. The New Forest Tour, an open-top bus tour run in the summer, starts and finishes in Lyndhurst.

seahouses

Seahouses is a large village on the North Northumberland coast in England. It is about 20 km north of Alnwick, within the Northumberland Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Seahouses attracts many visitors, mainly from the north east area. However national and international tourists often come to Seahouses whilst visiting the Northumberland National Park, Northumberland Coast and the Farne Islands. Seahouses also has a working fishing port, which also serves the tourist trade, being the embarkation point for visits to the Farne Islands. From shops in the town and booths along the harbour, several boat companies operate, offering various packages which may include inter alia landing on at least one Farne, seeing seals and seabirds, and hearing a commentary on the islands and the Grace Darling story or scuba diving on the many Farnes Islands wrecks. Grace Darling''s brother is buried in the cemetery at North Sunderland. He died in 1903, aged 84. The current Seahouses lifeboat bears the name Grace Darling.
The Seahouses Festival is an annual cultural event which began in 1999 as a small Sea Shanty festival. After a significant European Funding grant from the Leader+ programme, in 2005, it has grown into a more broadly based cultural celebration.
Between 1898 and 1951, Seahouses was the north-eastern terminus of the North Sunderland Railway. Independent until its final closure, it formed a standard gauge rail link between the village and Chathill Station on the East Coast Main Line . The site of Seahouses station is now the town carpark and the trackbed between village and North Sunderland is a public footpath
