Those older languages > are far more confusing as to words with multiple meanings. English hasn't got a whole lot of native words (Anglo-Saxon based). It has borrowed numerous words from other languages. Do you watch a /karaoke/ barbecue on your television? 'karaoke' is Japanese. 'barbecue' comes from a Caribe Indian word. 'tele' is Greek. 'vision' is Latin. English has a lot of ambiguity in both pronunciation, and spelling. Has anybody ever presented you with a present? (How can 'present' be both a 'gift', and 'time' period? For that matter, how can 'period' be both a dot at the end of the sentence, and a time reference? The soldiers ate dessert in the desert, after which two deserted their post? On whose authority do you determine the proper pronunciation of 'route'? Oh, and what makes English the current 'Universal Language' is the economic power of the U.S.A. You want to do business with powerful companies, they are probably USAian, and you need to know English to communicate with them. That probably will *not* hold true as PRC gain prominence as an economic power. English is not the only language which borrows foreign words. We got /karaoke/, /karate/, /typhoon/, and /tsunami/ from the people who call 'bread', 'pan', and cake, 'keiki', and ice cream, 'isu kureemu'. And they live in 'apaatos' (apartments). -- Norman ~Shine, bright morning light, ~now in the air the spring is coming. ~Sweet, blowing wind, ~singing down the hills and valleys.

Guest webster72n Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Re: The Color 'Red' is missing You fairly well summed it up, Norman, the basic english language is a mix of several languages (Kauderwelsch) and started out with the german slang, spoken in the northern part of Germany in earlier times, called 'Plattdeutsch' and still is. There may be people disagreeing with it, but the fact still remains. Remember the Anglo-Saxons? The dictionary will always tell us, what's 'cool'. Why are we 'arguing' about this anyaway? Think Eric and Mike will make up? Harry. "N.

Guest Heirloom Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Re: The Color 'Red' is missing Doing much better, thank you, Joanie. The swelling is down to the point I can almost get a shoe on! Still some pain, but, it is subsiding. Color is still far from normal....unless I am part black. If the lawsuit comes to fruition, I am sure it will feel a LOT better!

Guest Heirloom Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Re: The Color 'Red' is missing I explained that in my earlier post, <H>. Simply turn on your monitor, without turning on the cpu....you can leave everything connected. Your monitor should have some sort of screen saver built in that will inform you that you "have no signal" and "the monitor is working properly"....usually, a small window of varying colors that moves around on the screen. Additionally, you should have access to the menu of settings which includes the color adjustments, skew, brightness, contrast, etc. If these menu items and the screen saver message are of proper color, then the problem is with something other than your monitor, i.e. the video cable, the connections or the video card and/or the integrity of its' seating. If the color is okay in the monitor only test, try first reconnecting the video cable at both ends. If this does not help, then try 'reseating' the video card (taking proper precautions of disconnecting power and grounding yourself to the case or suitable ground so as not to destroy any static sensitive devices). If the color is out of whack in the monitor only test, you have a bad monitor and, as stated by someone earlier, don't waste your money getting a CRT fixed. Bite the bullet and get an LCD....they are getting pretty cheap now. If the video cable is at fault, you can 'usually' reproduce the symptoms by moving or wiggling the cable and connections. If this fails to help, you are left with swapping the video card.....they, too, are getting pretty cheap.......you could probably find someone that will give you one of their old 32 or 64Meg cards that is still working well. Suggest you go back through the pertinent portions of this thread, all the suggestions seem to have been valid.

Guest webster72n Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Re: The Color 'Red' is missing Heirloom: When turning on the 'Monitor only', nothing happens. The screen stays dark and empty, without any life whatsoever. Hence my 'ignorance'. As things stand right now, I'm going to wait for the next 'computer show' and get a new LCD Monitor, which will be some time late in September. Meanwhile I can live with the intermittently missing red color, which BTW. isn't all that bad. Appreciate your help a whole lot, H, thank you. Harry.

Guest Heather Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Re: The Color 'Red' is missing Hey you two.....Elayne is the photographer on our holidays. Ron just wears the camera around his neck so he can "play tourist"...lol. I did up a couple more of my "creations" and I will only charge Mikey twice the price. For postage, of course. Now that I am on a bit of a roll, must get back to it. I had to go out for bits and pieces yesterday so that I could finish up what I had there. This is one expensive hobby, but I am constantly amazing myself when something I agonize over turns out so good. Elayne has put her order in for a friend. So have to make that one up.
