    Ancient astronamy & advance science
    (International Journal of Scientific Research - IJSR, 2016-02) Iqbal, Sajid
    Archaeoastronomy is the study of astronomical ideas and their evolution over time. India has one of the richest heritage of ancient monuments and documents that detail how human perspective has changed over the millennia. Looking at these ancient remains it is possible to decipher the relative evolution of ideas and cross cultural influences. Here we present some of these patterns that are discernible. However, absolute dating of ancient monuments that are more than 2 or 3 millennia old is not easy. We therefore suggest that there is a need for scientific instruments to carbon date these monuments in order to understand the chronology of evolution of scientific ideas.

    Indigenous suprasegmental reflections of non native Indian speakers of English
    (Global art publications, Aurangabad, 2017-02-02) Quraishi, Taib
    Being part of the multilingual Indian society, most Indian speakers achieve the native verbal and linguistic repertoire of different Indian languages. At the same time, they struggle to speak English as a second or foreign language with international intelligibility. This study presents the First Language Influence and Suprasegmental Reflections of Indian speakers on English language. It also deals with the reasons and remedies to extirpate this habit. It may also help the readers to better understand the issues faced by their students or learners of English to adopt an empirical approach for teaching correct pronunciation. This study is based on personal interaction during teaching English as a second or foreign language to the Indian vernacular medium pupils.
