There are many differences between Latin and Arabic scrips, for example: the base line feature of Arabic is only secondary to the individual letter shapes and the script sets down the rules about in what way the letters from an alphabet are allowed to be used. Arabic script governs the connection between the individual letters, the base line, the ligatures (a single composite glyph of two or three characters), ..etc. Shape term is used to distinct between the basic shapes of Arabic letters and the forces that work on these individual letters shapes to create the ductus of the script. These forces can be alignment on a base line, connection to previous and following letters and sophisticated styles of writing. Since letters change according to their word position, Arabic set of glyph may range to more than 100 shapes. Arabic script has some challenging characteristics for any designers as he has to study their different multi-level baselines, multi-context joining, words and letters joining as a group, joining direction, teeth letters,…etc. The most characteristic term used in describing the connected letters with a strong baseline is ductus which made up out of three important changes of the letters: a.

The term calligraphy used to describe beauty writing in an aesthetic way with a pencil, brush, bamboo, etc… on a paper or ideographic equipment by arranging aesthetically the spaces between letters following different design rules.

If you were to acquire your enemy’s playbook, would you utilize it for your advantage? I am not referring to a sports team or a nation; I am discussing the playbook of Satan. 1 Peter 5:8 warns us to, “be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” James exhorts submission to God and resistance to the devil. Christians have a choice either to resist temptation or to succumb to temptation.

Writing for a Select Crowd? In his essay, “Should Everybody Write?”, Dennis Baron explains the evolution of the history of writing from written text by select few as compared to more modern technology of today. He introduces many of the obstacles that writers faced in early history.
Though the world is becoming dependent on technology, are we becoming overly dependent? Cursive writing is an important writing skill that should be taught in schools, that is on the edge of becoming extinct. At least 41 states in the United States don’t require public schools to teach cursive anymore. This will greatly affect students because not everything is capable of being done on the computer. Even though technology is a great agricultural advancement cursive writing is still a beneficial tool to be taught and not overlooked.
Out of the two basic ways to write, some people enjoy writing the old fashion way with a pen and paper. Others take a more modern approach using a computer and keyboard. Attending elementary school in the big computer boom era of the mid-nineties, my generation was one of the first to actually have a “computer lab” type of class. Since those days every word assignment I have ever had was completed using a computer. If I ever used a pen and paper and pen it is only to take quick notes that are barley legible, only to transfer them on to a computer at a later time.
I do not draw or paint very well, but I was able to find that writing is
Carr cites multiple experts, and views from the opposing side in his argument. This balances the article and brings fairness to his bias. Carr references multiple respected historical figures, and their opinions of technology. Carr utilizes Plato’s Phaedrus, where Socrates “bemoaned the development of writing” (326). Socrates was fearful of the future that mass writing may hold, as people came to rely on writing instead of carrying knowledge in their minds.

The tokens represented an accounting system and were used to record items purchased or sold such as goats, sheep or even bottles of wine.
He argues that there are three types of writing-alphabetic, logogram, and syllabic, but some writing can use parts of all three types. For example, cuneiform, the first language used parts of all three types of writing. He shows in this chapter that writing is an important tool for conquest and expanding civilization. Writing spread faster east to west rather than north to south.
The article does a significant job of providing evidence. The narrator gives experiences with students and compares and contrast students from the fifties to students now. The narrator talks about how writing is different and how students imaginations are not as good as they once were. The purpose for the article is to show how technology is slowly starting to rupture to imaginations of children.
Writing is an essential function we, as people use to communicate. We write letters, sign get well cards, write checks aswell as sign them. The list goes on. Writing in cursive has been a pillar throughout history: Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and countless other events were partial to writing in cursive. "Cursive Is a Powerful Brain Tool" thrives on the idea that cursive writing is indeed, good for us.
