Some adaptations of the Latin alphabet are augmented with ligatures, such as æ in Old English and Icelandic and Ȣ in Algonquian ; by borrowings from other alphabets, such as the thorn þ in Old English and Icelandic, which came from the Futhark runes ; and by modifying existing letters, such as the eth ð of Old English and Icelandic, which is a modified d. Other alphabets only use a subset of the Latin alphabet, such as Hawaiian, and Italian, which uses the letters j, k, x, y and w only in foreign words.

( from Icelandic for " Æsir faith ", pronounced, in Old Norse ) is a form of Germanic neopaganism which developed in the United States from the 1970s.

Sometimes " folklore " is religious in nature, like the tales of the Welsh Mabinogion or those found in Icelandic skaldic poetry.

# As exploratory data analysis, an ANOVA is an organization of an additive data decomposition, and its sums of squares indicate the variance of each component of the decomposition ( or, equivalently, each set of terms of a linear model ).

In mathematics, an algebraic number is a number that is a root of a non-zero polynomial in one variable with rational coefficients ( or equivalently — by clearing denominators — with integer coefficients ).

Similarly, P is said to satisfy the descending chain condition ( DCC ) if every descending chain of elements eventually terminates, or equivalently if any descending sequence

Inflation is defined either as the devaluation of a currency or equivalently the rise of prices relative to a currency.

To establish that a function is computable by Turing machine, it is usually considered sufficient to give an informal English description of how the function can be effectively computed, and then conclude " By the Church – Turing thesis " that the function is Turing computable ( equivalently partial recursive ).

One reason for the popularity of the dissociation constant in biochemistry and pharmacology is that in the frequently encountered case where x = y = 1, K < sub > d </ sub > has a simple physical interpretation: when = K < sub > d </ sub >, = or equivalently /(+)= 1 / 2.

Because of this, it is traditional to define the decision problem equivalently as: the set of inputs for which the problem returns yes.

The depth of the study of general Diophantine equations is shown by the characterisation of Diophantine sets as equivalently described as recursively enumerable.

or equivalently, integrating by parts, assuming ƒ < sup >( 2p )</ sup > is differentiable again and recalling that the odd Bernoulli numbers are zero:

Note that this derivation does assume that ƒ ( x ) is sufficiently differentiable and well-behaved ; specifically, that ƒ may be approximated by polynomials ; equivalently, that ƒ is a real analytic function of exponential type.

Define f ( x ) to be the highest power of the maximal ideal M containing x ( equivalently, to the power of the generator of the maximal ideal that x is associated to ).

In abstract algebra, a field is a commutative ring which contains a multiplicative inverse for every nonzero element, equivalently a ring whose nonzero elements form an abelian group under multiplication.

For example, an ester ( RCOOR ') has an ester functional group ( COOR ) and is composed of an alkoxy moiety (- OR ') and an acyl moiety ( RCO -), or, equivalently, it may be divided into carboxylate ( RCOO -) and alkyl (- R ') moieties.

Matching the theory's prediction to observational results for planetary orbits ( or, equivalently, assuring that the weak-gravity, low-speed limit is Newtonian mechanics ), the proportionality constant can be fixed as κ = 8πG / c < sup > 4 </ sup >, with G the gravitational constant and c the speed of light.

This is not a hypothesis but an illustration of the fact that any description of the physical world can be equivalently expressed in more than one way.

or, equivalently, the Wirtinger derivative of ƒ with respect to the complex conjugate of z is zero:

Under Galilean transformations, the time t < sub > 2 </ sub > − t < sub > 1 </ sub > between two events is the same for all inertial reference frames and the distance between two simultaneous events ( or, equivalently, the length of any object, | r < sub > 2 </ sub > − r < sub > 1 </ sub >|) is also the same.

" ( or equivalently: " is N a prime number?

The logistic map is a polynomial mapping ( equivalently, recurrence relation ) of degree 2, often cited as an archetypal example of how complex, chaotic behaviour can arise from very simple non-linear dynamical equations.

It is clear that, while most writers enjoy picturing the Negro as a woolly-headed, humble old agrarian who mutters `` yassuhs '' and `` sho' nufs '' with blissful deference to his white employer ( or, in Old South terms, `` massuh '' ), this stereotype is doomed to become in reality as obsolete as Caldwell's Lester.

All but the most rabid of Confederate flag wavers admit that the Old Southern tradition is defunct in actuality and sigh that its passing was accompanied by the disappearance of many genteel and aristocratic traditions of the reputedly languid ante-bellum way of life.

As Sir Charles Oman once said, `` it is no longer fashionable to declare that we can say nothing certain about Old English origins ''.

The New English Bible ( the Old Testament and Apocrypha will be published at a future date ) has not been planned to rival or replace the King James Version, but, as its cover states, it is offered `` simply as the Bible to all those who will use it in reading, teaching, or worship ''.

Old Mr. Pocket's frantic response to life imprisonment with a useless, social-climbing wife is to `` put his two hands into his disturbed hair '' and `` make an extraordinary effort to lift himself up by it '', whereas Joe Gargery endures the shrewish onslaughts of Mrs. Joe by apologetically drawing `` the back of his hand across and across his nose ''.

It is the belief of Old Babylonian scholars such as Carruccio that Old Babylonians " may have used the abacus for the operations of addition and subtraction ; however, this primitive device proved difficult to use for more complex calculations ".

Another notable script is Elder Futhark, which is believed to have evolved out of one of the Old Italic alphabets.

The Old Hungarian script is a contemporary writing system of the Hungarians.

The earliest known alphabet in the wider sense is the Wadi el-Hol script, believed to be an abjad, which through its successor Phoenician is the ancestor of modern alphabets, including Arabic, Greek, Latin ( via the Old Italic alphabet ), Cyrillic ( via the Greek alphabet ) and Hebrew ( via Aramaic ).
