"The textbook The Lingua Franca of Diplomacy: English for International Relations’ is a result of a years-long quest of the author for compiling a teaching aid of English for specific purposes in the fields of IR and foreign policy. This effort was necessitated by a practical reason - the absence of a relevant handbook, which has presented a major setback in the process of language training of bachelor degree students in IR and European Studies. Therefore, they constitute the main target group of potential users. It can also be of interest for students, specialising in Political Science, International Security, and ... |

Българска национална кухня на английски език. ... This seems to me to be the real deal and the very last word on genuine Bulgarian cuisine. Most of the recipes lean heavily toward meat ingredients except, of course, for the salads which are chiefly reminiscent of Greek-type salads (no lettuce.) There are also bounties of unique regional bread and dessert recipes which I doubt that you would find anywhere else. It's not really a down-side of the work to point out that this book design wreaks of a 1950s American cookbook in its actual presentation. The assembled food photos with the traditional chef standing behind ... |

The main corpus of the study represents a source study of pHermitage 1115, containing the text, which describes the encounter and the discourse of an Egyptian man with a deity.
