The Anglo-Saxons, in some contexts simply called Saxons or the English, were a cultural group who spoke Old English and inhabited much of what is now England and south-eastern Scotland in the Early Middle Ages. The Anglo-Saxons were not a single nationality, but rather a group of Germanic tribes that migrated to and settled in Britain after the departure of the Romans. They included the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, originally from areas now known as Germany, Denmark, and the Netherlands. These tribes collectively formed the Anglo-Saxon cultural and linguistic identity that would eventually lead to the development of England and the English language. The Anglo-Saxons were Germanic peoples who migrated to Britain starting around AD 410 and remained until the Norman Conquest in 1066. They were not a unified group but rather several tribes, including the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes. They brought their own languages, customs, and dress, which influenced the development of what is now EThe Angles (Old English: Engle, Latin: Anglii) were one of the main Germanic peoples who settled in Great Britain in the post-Roman period.[2] They founded several kingdoms of the Heptarchy in Anglo-Saxon England. Their name, which probably derives from the Angeln peninsula, is the root of the name England ("Engla land", "Land of the Angles"), and English, in reference to both for its people and language. According to Tacitus, writing around 100 AD, a people known as Angles (Anglii) lived beyond (apparently northeast of) the Lombards and Semnones, who lived near the River Elbe.[3]EtymologyThe name of the Angles may have been first recorded in Latinised form, as Anglii, in the Germania of Tacitus. It is thought to derive from the name of the area they originally inhabited, the Angeln peninsula, which is on the Baltic Sea coast of Schleswig-Holstein.Two related theories have been advanced, which attempt to give the name a Germanic etymology:It originated from the Germanic root for "narrow" (compare German and Dutch eng = "narrow"), meaning "the Narrow [Water]", i.e., the Schlei estuary; the root would be *h₂enǵʰ, "tight".The name derives from "hook" (as in angling for fish), in reference to the shape of the peninsula where they lived; Indo-European linguist Julius Pokorny derives it from Proto-Indo-European *h₂enk-, "bend" (see ankle).[4] Alternatively, the Angles may have been called such because they were a fishing people or were originally descended from such.[5]In Old English, the same term Engle refers the Angles before and after the migration to Britain. As most Germanic settlers in Britain during this time were Angles, the settled area became referred to as England ("Engla land", "the land or country of the Angles"). While Latin and Celtic-speaking populations referred to the Germanic speakers in Britain in general by terms related to "Saxons", they came to refer to themselves as Engle ("Angles", "English people").[6][7] "Angle" and related terms therefore have some ambiguity in their scope. From Engle is also derived "English" (Old English: Englisc).[7]According to Gesta Danorum, the brothers Dan and Angul were made rulers by the consent of their people because of their bravery and the Danes and Angles are respectively named from them.[8][9]  funny joke= why did the angelo saxsons fight bcause my dads snoring sounds like a saxsphone

is the moon really leaving        Yes, the Moon is slowly moving away from Earth, but it's not leaving the Earth entirely. The Moon is receding at a rate of about 3.8 centimeters (1.5 inches) per year. This is due to the tidal forces exerted by the Earth on the Here's a more detailed explanation:Tidal Forces:Earth's gravity creates a bulge of water on the side of the Earth facing the Moon and on the opposite side. As the Earth rotates, these tidal bulges drag on the Moon, transferring energy and causing it to move further away. Gradual Movement:The Moon's gradual retreat is not something that happens overnight. It's a slow process that takes place over billions of years. Future Impact:While the Moon is moving away, it's not expected to leave Earth entirely in the foreseeable future. The Sun's eventual demise as a red giant is likely to intervene long before the Moon escapes Earth's gravitational influence. The Earth and the Moon form the Earth–Moon satellite system with a shared center of mass, or barycenter. This barycenter is 1,700 km (1,100 mi) (about a quarter of Earth's radius) beneath the Earth's surface.The Moon's orbit is slightly elliptical, with an orbital eccentricity of 0.055.[1] The semi-major axis of the geocentric lunar orbit, called the lunar distance, is approximately 400,000 km (250,000 miles or 1.28 light-seconds), comparable to going around Earth 9.5 times.[179]The Moon makes a complete orbit around Earth with respect to the fixed stars, its sidereal period, about once every 27.3 days.[h] However, because the Earth–Moon system moves at the same time in its orbit around the Sun, it takes slightly longer, 29.5 days,[i][71] to return to the same lunar phase,[180] completing a full cycle, as seen from Earth. This synodic period or synodic month is commonly known as the lunar month and is equal to the length of the solar day on the Moon.[181]Due to tidal locking, the Moon has a 1:1 spin–orbit resonance. This rotation–orbit ratio makes the Moon's orbital periods around Earth equal to its corresponding rotation periods. This is the reason for only one side of the Moon, its so-called near side, being visible from Earth. That said, while the movement of the Moon is in resonance, it still is not without nuances such as libration, resulting in slightly changing perspectives, making over time and location on Earth about 59% of the Moon's surface visible from Earth.[182]Unlike most satellites of other planets, the Moon's orbital plane is closer to the ecliptic plane than to the planet's equatorial plane. The Moon's orbit is subtly perturbed by the Sun and Earth in many small, complex and interacting ways. For example, the plane of the Moon's orbit gradually rotates once every 18.61 years,[183] which affects other aspects of lunar motion. These follow-on effects are mathematically described by Cassini's laws.[184] FUNNY JOKE the cow goes mooo what do it doesnr it goes moooon!

A “dead” language is one no longer learned as a first language or used in ordinary communication. Classical Latin, the language of Cicero and Virgil, became “dead” after its form became fixed, whereas Vulgar Latin, the language most Romans ordinarily used, continued to evolve as it spread across the western Roman Empire, gradually becoming the Romance languages.Latium, ancient area in west-central Italy, originally limited to the territory around the Alban Hills, but extending by about 500 bceLatin (lingua Latina or Latinum[I]) is a classical language belonging to the Italic branch of the Indo-European languages. Latin was originally spoken by the Latins in Latium (now known as Lazio), the lower Tiber area around Rome, Italy.[1] Through the expansion of the Roman Republic, it became the dominant language in the Italian Peninsula and subsequently throughout the Roman Empire. It has greatly influenced many languages, including English, having contributed many words to the English lexicon, particularly after the Christianization of the Anglo-Saxons and the Norman Conquest. Latin roots appear frequently in the technical vocabulary used by fields such as theology, the sciences, medicine, and law.By the late Roman Republic, Old Latin had evolved into standardized Classical Latin. Vulgar Latin refers to the less prestigious colloquial registers, attested in inscriptions and some literary works such as those of the comic playwrights Plautus and Terence[2] and the author Petronius. While often called a "dead language",[3] Latin did not undergo language death. Between the 6th and 9th centuries, natural language change in the vernacular Latin of different regions evolved into distinct Romance languages. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, Latin remained the common language of international communication, science, scholarship and academia in Europe into the early 19th century, by which time modern languages had supplanted it in common academic and political usage.

The Mona Lisa is a half-length portrait painting by Leonardo da Vinci, considered a masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance. It is believed to depict Lisa del Giocondo, the wife of a Florentine silk merchant, and is now housed in the Louvre Museum in Paris. The painting is known for its enigmatic smile, the sitter's natural pose, and Leonardo's use of sfumato to create a subtle, smoky effect. Key Features and History:Artist: Leonardo da Vinci. Subject: Traditionally believed to be Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo. Location: Louvre Museum, Paris. Style: Italian Renaissance, with a focus on naturalism and sfumato. Technique: Oil paint on a poplar wood panel, with sfumato used to create a subtle, smoky effect. Name: "Mona Lisa" is an Italian term meaning "My Lady Lisa". The painting is also known as "La Gioconda" in Italian, which translates to "the joyous woman". Significance: Considered one of the most famous and visited works of art in the world, renowned for its beauty, mystery, and historical context. The painting has been traditionally considered to depict the Italian noblewoman Lisa del Giocondo.[9] It is painted in oil on a white poplar panel.[10] Leonardo never gave the painting to the Giocondo family.[11] It was believed to have been painted between 1503 and 1506; however, Leonardo may have continued working on it as late as 1517. King Francis I of France acquired the Mona Lisa after Leonardo's death in 1519, and it is now the property of the French Republic. It has normally been on display at the Louvre in Paris since 1797.[12]The painting's global fame and popularity partly stem from its 1911 theft by Vincenzo Peruggia, who attributed his actions to Italian patriotism—a belief it should belong to Italy. The theft and subsequent recovery in 1914 generated unprecedented publicity for an art theft, and led to the publication of many cultural depictions such as the 1915 opera Mona Lisa, two early 1930s films (The Theft of the Mona Lisa and Arsène Lupin), and the song "Mona Lisa" recorded by Nat King Cole—one of the most successful songs of the 1950s.[13]Title and subjectA margin note by Agostino Vespucci (visible at right) discovered in a book at Heidelberg University. Dated 1503, it states that Leonardo was working on a portrait of Lisa del Giocondo.[16][17]The title of the painting, which is known in English as Mona Lisa, is based on the presumption that it depicts Lisa del Giocondo, although her likeness is uncertain. Renaissance art historian Giorgio Vasari wrote that "Leonardo undertook to paint, for Francesco del Giocondo, the portrait of Mona Lisa, his wife."[18][19][20] Monna in Italian is a polite form of address originating as ma donna—similar to Ma'am, Madam, or my lady in English. This became madonna, and its contraction monna. The title of the painting is spelled in Italian as Monna Lisa (mona being a vulgarity in Italian), which is rare in English,[21][22][23] where it is traditionally spelled Mona.[24]FameIn the 21st century, the Mona Lisa is considered the most famous painting in the world, a destination painting. Until the 20th century, it was one among many highly regarded artworks.[152] Once part of King Francis I of France's collection, the Mona Lisa was among the first artworks to be exhibited in the Louvre, which became a national museum after the French Revolution. Leonardo began to be revered as a genius, and the painting's popularity grew in the mid-19th century when French intelligentsia praised it as mysterious and a representation of the femme fatale.[153] The Baedeker guide in 1878 called it "the most celebrated work of Leonardo in the Louvre",[154] but the painting was known more by the intelligentsia than the general public.[155]  funny joke= they coulndt paint monna lisa again because shes *mone            *mone short for gone
