Imperial Empire Concordance

by

Ann Wilson

Copyright (C) 1992 by Ann Wilson

A

A: (Imperial English): The neutral-animate pronoun. Emperor Chang
disliked the fact that there was no good Standard English pronoun that
referred to a single individual of unknown sex, or where sex was
immaterial, so he made use of the Celtic "a", often written with an
accent mark (a) by those who use Standard, to distinguish it from the
indefinite article (@ is sometimes used when the printing/writing
device cannot show accent marks). In Imperial English orthography, the
Cyrillic "ya" (reversed R) is used.

[Preparer's note: The @ symbol has been used throughout these stories
in the manner described above.]

ACADEMY: The Imperial Military Academy or Imperial Administrative
Academy. Both are headquartered in and have their most prestigious
facilities in the Antarctica Palace Complex; "branch" Academies are
located throughout the Empire.
