Saga

Sagas are stories mostly about ancient Nordic and Germanic history, about early Viking voyages, the battles that took place during the voyages, about migration to Iceland and of feuds between Icelandic families. They were written in the Old Norse language, mainly in Iceland.

The texts are tales in prose which share some similarities with the epic, often with stanzas or whole poems in alliterative verse embedded in the text, of heroic deeds of days long gone, "tales of worthy men," who were often Vikings, sometimes pagan, sometimes Christian. The tales are usually realistic, except legendary sagas, sagas of saints, sagas of bishops and translated or recomposed romances. They are sometimes romanticised and fantastic, but always dealing with human beings one can understand.

Connexionalism

Connexionalism (or sometimes connectionalism) is the theological understanding and foundation of Methodist church governance ("ecclesiastical polity"), as practised in the British Methodist Church, the American United Methodist Church, African Methodist Episcopal Church, African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church, Christian Methodist Episcopal Church and many of the countries where Methodism was established by missionaries sent out from these Churches. In the American church, where bishops are used, connexionalism is a variety of episcopal polity; however, in some countries the title of bishop may be used without any change in the Connexional polity. In world Methodism, a given Connexion is usually autonomous.

In the history of Christianity in England, a connexion was a circuit of prayer groups who would employ travelling ministers alongside the regular ministers attached to each congregation. This method of organising emerged in eighteenth century English Non-conformist religious circles; this is why the otherwise old-fashioned spelling (connexion rather than connection) is retained. The Countess of Huntingdon's Connexion, for instance, was founded by Selina, Countess of Huntingdon. Over time, as Methodism became a separate church, this structure of connexions came to form a new system of polity, separate from episcopal polity.

Connexion (TV shows)

Connexion is a Tamil celebrity game show on Vijay TV. The game is played by three teams – each team has one celebrity and the other person could be their friend or family. It is a team game and consists of four rounds. Before the actual games start, they have a warm up round known as Javvu Mittai. In this, Jagan starts off with some random word. Each team should say a connecting word, i.e., if team A says a word connecting to the one told by Jegan, then team B should say a word connecting to what was told by team C. This is continued until each team had a few chances. However, this is not included for points.

Gameplay format

Round :1 one by two

In this round, two pictures are shown. The team has 30 seconds to guess common word/homonym from the pictures. The words sound the same but can have different spellings or have slight variations in how they are pronounced. Each team has to answer three questions in this round. If any team is unable to answer in the given time, other teams are given a chance to answer. Bonus points are also rewarded.
