Unreferenced date February 2011 Notability Notability date February 2011 Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Haplography is the act of writing once what should be written twice. For example, the English word idolatry , the worship of idols, comes from the Greek language Greek eidololatreia , but one syllable has been lost through haplography. Other examples are endontics for endodontics, and voraphilia for vorarephilia . There are various instances of conventionalized haplography in English. For example, the normal punctuation mark for a declarative sentence in English is a full stop period . However, if a declarative sentence ends with a word that is abbreviated with a period etc., Ltd., or Inc. , the sentence final punctuation mark is omitted. This is clear by comparison with other sentence types, such as interrogative or exclamatory sentences, where the punctuation is not reduced at the end. Philip K. Dick wrote the novel Lies, Inc.

Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Terpsimbrotos is a type of compound linguistics linguistic compound inflectional verbal compounds, German verbales Rektionskompositum , on a par with the bahuvrihi and tatpurusha types. It is derived from a finite verbal phrase, the verbal inflection still visible at the juncture of the compound members. Terpsimbrotos is itself a Greek language Greek example of such a compound, consisting of terpsi either from terp ti or from terp si gladdens and mbrotos mortals c.f. Ambrosia a mbrosia a terpsimbrotos is thus something or somebody that gladdens mortals . The word appears in the Odyssey and in the Homeric hymn to Apollo as an epitheton of Helios . Opinions as to what form exactly is reflected by this type of compounds are divided. Dunkel 1992 compares the Vedic Sanskrit Vedic si imperatives, connected with the aorist system, apparently by haplology along the lines of vak sa si vaksi . B t harm n driving the wheel , a Homeric Greek Homeric compound, was also postulated as a similar type of compound, though lacking the i of terpsimbrotos . If correctly analysed, this would support the ti analysis of terpsi . Dunkel traces the origin of the pt in ptolemos vs. earlier polemos war to a re analysis of such a compound, phere t polemos , metathesised to phere ptolemos . Phere oikos house carrier , carries his house , a term used for a snail by Hesiod s Works and Days , is another Greek variant of the type, with a thematic e instead of the si . At least synchronically, discussed above is also of this type. Literature George Dunkel, Two old problems in Greek ptolemos and terpsimbrotos , Glotta 70 1992 .
