Serendipity hit her as she looked up into his eyes.
The weather was stormy, as the small droplets of water brushed carelessly against her face 
Conversations and noises flew by as she speed-walked to get to her day job at the old office.
Seconds later, she is on the ground while a hand reaches out to help. 
Her eyes widen as she stared into a beautiful pair of blue eyes 
Eyes that could make the sun peek out of the clouds
Eyes that could make a heart stop beating  
15 years later, he was her serendipity and the weather was never stormy again.

- dystonian novel
-fictional language he created- Newspeak
altered form of regular English designed and controlled by the state in order to suppress free thought, individualism, and happiness
-linguistics and psychology meet, even though he isn't a expert in neither 
Primary aim-to reduce the meaning of language as well as the number of words
-takes out all synonyms and antonym
example: bad--> ungood and warm--> uncold
Party- fictional, controls which antonym of a word is used
- can choose to shift thought in a more positive or negative direction to suit their needs
Comparative and superlative adjectives dispatched in a similar manner
- no word for better or best
-prefixes added to intensify word
By reducing the number of words available, reduces the intensity and emotion behind the words that people in the book can use.
The party is able to suppress the population's thoughts and emotions
To create an adjective- have to add the suffix -ful to a noun
For adverbs with suffix -wise
A single base word can convey any part of speech
Tense require a smaller number of words
- suffix- -ed is the only way to change a word to the past tense
- limits the population's very perception of
Newspeak intended not only to force the populace to conform their thoughts and ideologies towards those of The Party, but to make it impossible to conceive of any other point of view 
- illustrate such attempts to control thought and populace ideas about reality itself
examples: Freedom is Slavery, Ignorance is Strength, War is Peace
Doublethink- allows the totalitarian party to thrive without collapsing in on itself
popular word- thoughtcrime- word to describe the act of thinking socially unacceptable thoughts or holding opinions that are ideologically distinct from the Party's
Thoughtpolice- group that monitored the populace for any signs of unorthodox thought or action, popular to signify any organization that attempts to suppress freedom of thought  
The familiarity of Newspeak words and concepts in English is a testament to the effectiveness and ingenuity of Orwell’s fictional language, and demonstrates that it is more than a mere experiment in linguistics and psycholog]]> 2016-10-21 02:48:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ttrane18/ll91q1avbqwn/wish/132260364 jcollier3 https://padlet.com/ttrane18/ll91q1avbqwn/wish/143457050 2016-12-13 18:56:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ttrane18/ll91q1avbqwn/wish/143457050
