Languages of South America
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
Main European languages spoken in South America.
The languages of South America can be divided into three broad groups:
the languages of the (in most cases, former) colonial powers
many indigenous languages, some of which are co-official alongside the colonial languages
and various pockets of other languages spoken by immigrant populations that have survived assimilation by the majority languages
The languages introduced by the process of the European colonization of the Americas are chiefly European, some of whom have given rise to the formation of creoles.

Main languages[edit]
Main native languages in Latin America, legend:
Quechua Guarani Aymara
Nahuatl Maya languages Mapudungún
Portuguese is the majority language of South America, by a small margin. Spanish, with slightly fewer speakers than Portuguese, is the second most spoken language on the continent.[1][2]
Other official and majority languages in specific countries are:
Dutch in Suriname
English in Guyana and the Falkland Islands.
French in French Guiana, an overseas department of France.
Indigenous languages[edit]
Main language families of South America (other than Quechuan, Aimaran and Mapudungun, which expanded after the Spanish Conquest).
Indigenous languages of South America include, among several others, Quechua languages in Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador and, less common in Argentina, Chile and Colombia; Guaraní in Paraguay and, to a much lesser extent, in Argentina and Bolivia; Aymara in Bolivia, Peru, and less often in Chile; Wayuu in northern Colombia and northwest Venezuela; and Mapudungun is spoken in certain pockets of southern Chile and, more rarely, Argentina.
In Bolivia, Quechua, Aymara, and Tupi Guarani are co-official alongside Spanish. In Paraguay, Guarani shares joint official status with Spanish. In Colombia, the languages of the country's ethnic groups are constitutionally recognized as official languages in their territories; more than 60 such aboriginal languages exist today. In Ecuador, Spanish, Northern Quechua and Shuar are official for intercultural relations. In Peru, Quechua, Aymara, and other indigenous languages are co-official in the areas where they are predominant. There are many other languages once spoken in South America that are extinct today (such as the extinct languages of the Marañón River basin).
In Brazil, there are around 135 indigenous languages confirmed. The regions with the most speakers are northern and western Brazil, where there is a larger concentration of native people. Indigenous populations have been trying to keep their traditions of their homeland, with the help of Funai, the agency responsible for the protection of the native people.

Other languages[edit]
Italian is spoken by communities in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Uruguay, Peru, and Venezuela.
German is used by some in Brazil, Argentina, Guyana, Suriname, Chile, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Bolivia, and Paraguay.
Speakers of Arabic (chiefly of Lebanese, Syrian or Palestinian descent), are commonly found in parts of in Brazil, Colombia, Guyana, Suriname, Argentina, Paraguay, Chile (largest Palestinian colony outside the Middle East) and Venezuela.
Welsh is spoken and written in the historic towns of Trelew and Rawson in the Argentine Patagonia.
There are small Croatian, Greek, Polish, Ukrainian and Russian-speaking communities in Brazil, Chile, and Argentina.
There are also many Romani-speakers, originating in Eastern Europe, throughout South America particularly in Colombia, Chile, Brazil, and Argentina.
There are Eastern European Romanian speakers, esp. in Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Colombia, where Romanian populations live.
There are also small clusters of Japanese-speakers in Brazil, Peru, Bolivia (including Okinawans from the island of Okinawa), Colombia, Paraguay, and Ecuador. Brazil currently holds the largest Japanese community outside Japan [7]
Hindustani and other Indian languages are commonly found in Guyana, Suriname, and French Guiana.

The Rapa Nui Language is a Polynesian origin found in Easter Island, Chile and Maori is also found in Easter Island.
Most South American countries mandate the regular study of one or more of English, French, German or Italian. These countries often have advanced cultural language institutes for those respective languages centered in their major cities.
In Brazil, Italian and German dialects, specifically Talian, East Pomeranian and Riograndenser Hunsrückisch, have co-official status alongside Portuguese in about a dozen cities, and are mandatory subjects in schools in other municipalities. Brazil's largest city Sao Paulo has large numbers of German, Italian, Japanese and Levantine Arabic speakers.

A Red, Red Rose
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search
"A Red, Red Rose" is a 1794 song in Scots by Robert Burns based on traditional sources. The song is also referred to by the title "Oh, My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose", "My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose" or "Red, Red Rose" and is often published as a poem.

The poem[edit]
O my Luve's like a red, red rose
That’s newly sprung in june;
O my Luve's like the melodie
That’s sweetly play'd in tune:

As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,
So deep in luve am I:
And I will luve thee still, my dear,
Till a’ the seas gang dry:

Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear,
And the rocks melt wi’ the sun:
I will luve thee still, my dear,
While the sands o’ life shall run.

And fare thee weel, my only Luve
And fare thee weel, a while!
And I will come again, my Luve,
Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.
My Love is Like a Red, Red Rose
Origins of the song[edit]
Publication in A Selection of Scots Songs Harmonized Improved with Simple and Adapted Graces by Peter Urbani, Edinburgh, c. 1793
Burns worked for the final seven years of his life on projects to preserve traditional Scottish songs for the future. In all, Burns had a hand in preserving over 300 songs for posterity, the most famous being "Auld Lang Syne". He worked on this project for James Johnson's the Scots Musical Museum (1787-1803) and for George Thomson's five-volume A Select Collection of Original Scottish Airs for the Voice. Burns had intended the work to be published as part of Thomson's selection. However, he wrote to a friend that Thomson and he disagreed on the merits of that type of song. "What to me appears to be the simple and the wild, to him, and I suspect to you likewise, will be looked on as the ludicrous and the absurd."[1]
Instead, Burns gave the song to Scots singer Pietro Urbani who published it in his Scots Songs. In his book, Urbani claimed "the words of The Red Red Rose were obligingly given to him by a celebrated Scots poet, who was so struck by them when sung by a country girl that he wrote them down and, not being pleased with the air, begged the author to set them to music in the style of a Scots tune, which he has done accordingly."[2] In other correspondence, Burns referred to it as a "simple old Scots song which I had picked up in the country."[3]
Other sources have been suggested as an inspiration for Burns. A contemporary poem, "O fare thee well, my dearest dear", written by a Lieutenant Hinches bears a striking similarity to Burns's verse, notably the lines which refer to "ten thousand miles" and "Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear". A ballad originating from the same period entitled "The Turtle Dove" also contains similar lines, such as "Though I go ten thousand mile, my dear" and "Oh, the stars will never fall down from the sky/Nor the rocks never melt with the sun". Of particular note is a collection of verse dating from around 1770, The Horn Fair Garland, a copy of which is thought to exist bearing an inscription "Robine Burns aught this buik and no other". A poem in this collection, "The loyal Lover's faithful promise to his Sweet-heart on his going on a long journey" also contains similar verses such as "Althou' I go a thousand miles" and "The day shall turn to night, dear love/And the rocks melt in the sun".[1][2]
The lyrics of the song are simple but effective. "My luve's like a red, red rose/That's newly sprung in June" describe a love that is both fresh and long lasting. David Daiches in his work describes Burns as "the greatest songwriter Britain has produced" for his work in refurbishing and improving traditional Scots songs including "Red, Red Rose" which he described as a "combination of tenderness and swagger."[4]
Musical performances[edit]

Urbani published the song to an original tune that he wrote. The song appeared in Johnson's Museum in 1797 to the tune of Niel Gow's "Major Graham" which was the tune that Burns wanted. In 1799, it appeared in Thomson's Scottish Airs set to William Marshall's Wishaw's Favourite with the lyric "And fare thee weel awhile" changed.
The song became more popular when Robert Archibald Smith paired it with the tune of "Low Down in the Broom" in his Scottish Minstrel book in 1821. This has become the most popular arrangement. The song has been widely performed by a range of artists in the 20th and 21st centuries including Jean Redpath, Pat Boone, Kenneth McKellar, the Fureys, Eddi Reader, Camera Obscura, Eva Cassidy, Izzy, and Ronnie Browne of the Corries (in his solo album after Roy Williamson's death, 'Scottish Love Songs'(1995)).
Robert Schumann composed a setting of a German translation of Burns's poem in 1840.
Singer and actor Pat Boone performed the song on piano in the 1959 film adaptation of A Journey to the Center of the Earth.
Modern choral arrangements include a four-part, a cappella version by David Dickau, an intimate, Irish folk music-influenced setting, also SATB a cappella, by Matthew Brown ("A Red, Red Rose," published by Santa Barbara Music), an accompanied SATB setting by James Mulholland as well as a broader version by American composer René Clausen. Clausen's arrangement incorporates a piano, two violins, and a four-part chorus. (SATB) A Swedish translation and recording named "Min älskling (du är som en ros)" was made famous by the renowned Swedish musician Evert Taube.
Carly Simon sang a solo version of "A Red, Red Rose" on the album The Simon Sisters Sing The Lobster Quadrille And Other Songs For Children that she produced with her sister Lucy Simon. A version of Oh My Love is like a Red, Red Rose by Italian singer Ariella Uliano was performed with classical guitar accompaniment on the album Leave Only Your Footsteps Behind.
Eva Cassidy sang a slightly modified version titled "My Love's Like A Red Red Rose" which is featured as a live performance on her posthumous album "Somewhere".
The lyrics are included in the song "Final Breath" by the post rock band Pelican on their album What We All Come to Need.
Moscow-based art-rock band "Red Red Rose" derives its name from the poem and has a song called "RRR" inspired by the poem.
Inspiration[edit]
When asked for the source of his greatest creative inspiration, American singer songwriter Bob Dylan selected Burns' 1794 song A Red, Red Rose, as the lyrics that have had the biggest effect on his life.[3][4]
Symbolism[edit]
The song is highly evocative, including lines describing rocks melting with the sun, and the seas running dry. Burns may have been inspired by the concept of deep time put forward a few years earlier by geologist James Hutton in his Theory of the Earth in 1789 [5] .[6] Hutton and Burns were contemporaries, and would have mixed in similar circles in Edinburgh.[5]

Plot[edit]
This section may be too long and excessively detailed. Please consider summarizing the material while citing sources as needed.
Set in the year of 1993, the story begins with a newly wedded couple, Suhaasini and Mahendar going to a Ram temple at Raamnaamgarh to hand over Suhaasini's wedding chain to the idol of Lord Rama and receive the deity's blessings. The train stops at the train station and Mahendar's loyal driver Birju comes to fetch them and to drive them till the temple. Not realising that Birju is possessed, they follow him. Suhaasini and Mahendar enter the temple when suddenly, Mahendar recalls that they have forgotten the wedding Chain in the car so Mahendar goes to fetch it, asking Suhaasini to stay here. Suhaasini wanted to go with him as the temple seemed to be scary and also because it was the New Moon night. But Mahendar convinces her to wait for him to come. Meanwhile, Suhaasini witnesses strange eerie occurrences in the temple premises while exploring the region which included absence of a bell as well as any idol of Lord Rama inside the temple and passing of a cat out of nowhere. As soon as Suhaasini goes further inside the temple she trips off a door and falls down the stairs that lead into the temple's basement that happens to be a taantrik named Kaalasur's lair. As soon as Kaalasur sees her, he gladly welcomes her inside and offers to spend the night with her and make love. This frightens Suhaasini and she yells for help. This is followed by a struggle by Suhaasini to escape the taantrik's clutches and a duel between him and her husband Mahendar. Suhaasini runs away screaming for help. While fighting with the taantrik, Mahendar loses consciousness and Kaalasur shape-shifts into Mahendar's form. Meanwhile, Suhaasini reaches the palace of Thakur Prithvi Singh Sooryavanshi and asks them to save her husband from Kaalasur. Just then, Kaalasur arrives there in Mahendar's disguise and Suhaasini, scared out of her wits, pleads everybody to get the taantrik at the temple arrested. As everyone goes in search of the taantrik, Kaalasur takes Suhaasini in a bedroom inside the palace and tries making love to her. But luckily Suhaasini sees the reflection of the taantrik in the glass ceiling and pushes him away. As she reaches for the door to exit the house, the Thakur's family returns with the real Mahendar, a priest and few village men because they had found an unconscious Mahendar at the temple instead of the taantrik. The priest traps Kaalasur inside a circular ring of holy ash on the floor. The taantrik still doesn't accept defeat and continues threatening everyone. He keeps insisting on making love to Suhaasini which irks Mahendar to no extent. He threatens to burn Kaalasur into ashes, but the latter remarks that his ashes would rise in air and coalesce to resurrect him. Next, Mahendar threatens to bury the taantrik alive, but he says that his skeleton would rise from underneath the ground to revive him. An enraged Mahendar then shoots the taantrik with a rifle, but the bullet falls off on hitting the latter's chest without any harm. Mahendar then strangles Kaalasur and chokes him, but Kaalasur manages to get an upper hand and lifts Mahendar up in the air grabbing his throat. Suhaasini requests Kaalasur to leave Mahendar unharmed but he pays no heed and insists on having a one-night stand with her. This invokes the ferocity and strength inside Suhaasini who lifts up a villager's axe and chops off Kaalasur's right arm that had grabbed Mahendar's throat. Next, she cuts the taantrik's head off. As a result, the beheaded taantrik curses Suhaasini's family that since he couldn't make love to Suhaasini, no woman from her family must consummate her marriage hereafter or else death would befall on her. He also remarks that Suhaasini would never know the reason why he had chosen her and wanted to make love to her. Fearing that Suhaasini would be arrested for the taantrik's beheading, MahenDar orders the village man Lakha to take care of Kaalasur and his severed arm and head. The priest then orders Lakha to lock the taantrik's arm, head and body separately and hide them in different places so that the taantrik can never assimilate his body parts together and resurrect himself.
25 years later[edit]
In Mumbai, two girls Karuna and Gauri, who are revealed to be sisters, are shown walking to their car with several shopping bags in their hands. They reach their home and are revealed to be Mahendar and Suhaasini's daughters but Suhaasini is nowhere to be seen and instead and Karuna and Gauri's stepmother Damini is shown to be Mahendar's wife presently. Thakur Prithvi Singh Sooryavanshi is shown at Mahendar's house with his wife Uma and friend Vikram to discuss a matrimonial alliance between his friend Vikram's son Aman and Mahendar's older daughter Karuna. While Karuna is adamant about not giving consent to marriage, her grandmother (also Mahendra's mother) is worried about the fact that Karuna would have to stay at Raamnaamgarh after the marriage. Mahendar convinces his mother and Karuna to visit Raamnaamgarh and meet the prospective groom. Meanwhile, Vikram's son Aman is shown to have returned from the United States with his friend Raajvardhan "Raaj" Singh Sooryavanshi (Prithvi and Uma's son). They invade the taxi that had been already booked by Karuna and Gauri to go to the railway station. Since Gauri asks the boys to get out of the taxi, an enraged Raaj punctures the taxi's tyres and they all have to walk all the way to the station. They all board the train, but they get off the train to buy some things on the platform. This leads to them missing the train and being forced to walk to Raamnaamgarh through the woods. In the woods, Karuna falls into a quicksand and while trying to get her out of it Gauri accidentally touches Kaalasur's severed arm that had been buried under the quicksand. This awakens the taantrik and he is now able to control his severed arm telepathically. Raaj and others then manage to rescue Karuna and take her to the old and desolate temple that used be the taantrik's lair 25 years ago. On seeing Karuna distraught and weak due to a near death experience, Gauri insists on taking her inside the temple. Her decision is strongly challenged by Raaj as he is skeptical of the temple, but Gauri breaks the holy threads wound over the gate and enters the temple's premises. Seeing this through the gem of the ring on his hand, Kaalasur directs his hand to reach for the temple door and find Birju who is revealed to have been possessed by the Tantrik and locked in a room in the temple's basement since 25 years. Meanwhile, Gauri searches for help in the temple, while Raaj and Aman have left to find a way out of the woods. Gauri accidentally trips herself and falls down the stairs to the basement, exactly like the way Suhaasini had. She is startled to notice the possessed Birju who later attacks her with an axe. She struggles to save herself but is cornered by Birju. Just when he is about to kill Gauri, a man arrives and grabs his hand firmly. The two then fight while Gauri yells for help. Meanwhile, Raaj and Aman while on their way to seek help, meet Vikram along with Mahendra and his family. They enquire the two and learn that Suhasini's daughters are left alone at the cursed temple. They all hurry back to the temple. Raaj with the help of the man who had been fighting with Birju manages to save Gauri. The man is revealed to be Dharam, Raj's friend who's father Lakha is rendered mentally challenged due to reasons unknown to anyone. Dharam brings Birju before the villagers. The villagers demand Birju be burnt alive. Birju is tied to a tree by the priest and just then lightning strikes the tree and it catches fire. Kaalasur who knew all the events up till now is scared for the safety of his arm which had earlier merged with Birju's arm. Suddenly Thakur Prithvi arrives with the policemen and gets Birju arrested. This infuriates Dharam who demands to know the cause of his father's mental illness from Birju. Thakur Prithvi shuts him up and reprimands him for believing in the supernatural in spite of being highly educated. He takes away Mahendra and his family to his palace with himself after dismissing the villagers.
Meanwhile, the family is busy arranging the marriage of Karuna and Aman. But Gauri and Raj team up to break the alliance since Karuna and Aman are not in love with each other. Karuna and Aman eventually fall in love and Raj and Gauri start to get feelings for each other. When the tantrik finally finds his body, all hell breaks loose in Karuna and Gauri's life. The Tantrik start changing his face and scares everyone. This causes an accident with Aman and Karuna and both go missing. The police find Karuna alive, but not Aman's body. Karuna is shown to not be herself, but a toy of the tantrik. She does his bidding and plans to kill Raj. The tantrik now sets his eyes on Gauri, and Karuna gets engaged to Raj.Meanwhile, Raj and Gauri fall in love and Gauri comes to know about Karuna not being herself.Gauri tries to tell family members about her but in vain. In order to protect Raj from Karuna,Gauri marries him.Kalasur kills Gauri's father and blame goes on Raj as a part of misunderstanding created by Karuna and Kalasur.Kalasur with his new aides Mishka , Ajay and Karuna is successful in straining Gauri's relationship with other family members and Raj.

"We're Not Gonna Take It" is a song by the American band Twisted Sister from their album Stay Hungry. It was first released as a single (with "You Can't Stop Rock & Roll" as the B-side) on April 27, 1984. The Stay Hungry album was released two weeks later, on May 10, 1984. The single reached No. 21 on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, making it Twisted Sister's only Top 40 single. The song was ranked No. 47 on 100 Greatest 80's Songs and No. 21 on VH1's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders of the 80s.
"We're Not Gonna Take It" was written by vocalist Dee Snider. As influences for the song, he cites the glam rock band Slade and the Christmas carol, "O Come, All Ye Faithful".[2][3]

Music video[edit]
The song is notable for its popular music video directed by Marty Callner, with its emphasis on slapstick comedy. The video begins with a disobedient son (played by Marty's son, Dax Callner) playing Twisted Sister songs in his bedroom while the rest of the family is eating dinner. The father (played by Mark Metcalf) goes to the boy's bedroom and scolds his son for being interested only in his guitar and Twisted Sister music. At the last line of the father's rather overlong speech, he says "What do you want to do with your life?" To which the son replies "I Wanna Rock!" with a voice strikingly similar to that of director Marty Callner. The boy then transforms into Snider and the music begins. Snider sings to the other children, who turn into the rest of the band, and they wreak havoc on the family. The father gets the worst of the band's mischief. The end of the song pays tribute to Metcalf's character Douglas C. Niedermeyer from the 1978 film, Animal House (i.e. "Drop and give me 20", "You're all worthless and weak").
Ballad Version[edit]
In 20 Dee Snider gave magician Criss Angel the rights to use the song as an 'anthem' for this HELP (Heal Every Life Possible) charity. "Dee and I have known each other since the 1990s and he was a strong proponent of mine for years. We are both from Long Island, or as we like to think of it, 'Strong Island,' and his record publishing company gave me the rights to the song and it is our anthem for gratis."[4]. Snider appeared in a video of a stripped down acoustic version for the charity, recorded in the desert outside Las Vegas and featuring children in hospital and a young woman shaving her head to symbolise fighting cancer.[5]
Notable cover versions[edit]
The song has been covered by various artists including German pop punk band Donots in 2002 (which became a minor hit in Germany, reaching 33 in the Singles Chart). This song was also covered by Powerman 5000 for their tribute album Copies, Clones, and Replicants.
Parodies[edit]
American singer "Weird Al" Yankovic included a short stylized version of the song in his "Hooked on Polkas" medley from Dare to Be Stupid.
American ska punk band Reel Big Fish used the melody to the song as part of their song "Everybody's Drunk" with lyrics altered to be: "We're all gonna get drunk! We're all gonna get drunk! Oh wait we're already drunk!"
In 1999, the US rock band Lit parodied the opening scene in their video for "Zip-Lock".
In a Primavera commercial in Spain, there was a parody named "Huevos con Aceite" with the lyrics: Huevos con aceite, oh no, ya no queremos, ahora con Primavera, desayunarán (Eggs with oil, no. We don't want them. Now with Primavera butter, you'll take your breakfast). Twisted Sister has sung "Huevos con Aceite" when giving concerts in Spanish-speaking regions[6]
This song is used for a hotel chain called Extended StayAmerica as a TV commercial.
Spanish heavy metal band Gigatrón released a version of this song with different Spanish lyrics titled "Heavy hasta la muerte",[7] as a parody of being a true metal fan.
ApologetiX, a Christian Parody band, released the song "We're Not Going To Canaan" on their 2014 release "Loaded 45's"
Veritas Technologies uses the song in their 2016 commercials, as does Comcast for its Xfinity service, the parody song is called "You're Not Gonna Watch It". At the end of the Xfinity commercial, Snider is shown joking, "I used to like that song."
Legacy[edit]
The song was used in the commercials for the 2006 movie Charlotte's Web. VH-1's series True Spin explains the song as simply an anthem of teen rebellion, but Snider appeared saying that he was happy that long after he's gone, "any time that the team is down by two, or somebody had a bad day at the office, they're gonna stand up and sing We're Not Gonna Take It".
The song was part of the intro for progressive talk host Stephanie Miller until the 2008 election of Barack Obama, when it was replaced by "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves. The song was sung by the characters Mordecai & Rigby in the Regular Show episode "Karaoke Video". The song is the theme song of the American reality comedy television series Betty White's Off Their Rockers.
2012 Republican vice-presidential candidate Paul Ryan's camp used the song in their campaign, until Snider asked Ryan not to play it anymore; Snider stated that he does not support Ryan and he planned on voting for Obama.[8][9]
In the summer of 2015, the song was adopted as the theme song for Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign. The song is played after all his campaign appearances where it is known unofficially as the Trump fight song.[10] Newsweek reports Dee Snider of Twisted Sister gave Trump permission to use the song.[11] Snider later changed his mind saying that he had only allowed Trump to use the song because the two were friends, but then respectfully asked Trump to stop using it as he did not agree with many of Trump's stances. Snider did not want people to get the impression that he was endorsing Trump or his campaign.[12]
The song also appears in the episode 6 of season 5 of the TV series "Person of Interest", where it's sung by Harold Finch during a wedding. The song was used in two TV spots of the 2015 film, The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. The song was also used in the teaser trailer of the 2016 film, Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life.
