Kunč
Kunč (pronounced [ˈkuːntʃ]; in older sources also Kunče,German: Kuntschen,Gottscheerish: Kuntschn) is a remote abandoned settlement in the Municipality of Dolenjske Toplice in southern Slovenia. The area is part of the traditional region of Lower Carniola and is now included in the Southeast Slovenia Statistical Region. Its territory is now part of the village of Podstenice. Northeast of Kunč there is an ice-filled cave called Ice Cave (Slovene: Ledena jama). It is connected to Kunč by a path and people would go to the cave for ice during times of drought.
Name
The name Kunč is of uncertain origin. It may be derived from the surname Kunz or Künz, which was recorded in the land registry of 1574. Snoj explains the surname Kunz as a hypocorism of Konrad or Gunther.
History
Kunč was a Gottschee German village. It was one of the oldest settlements in the Gottschee region, founded after external colonization of the region had ended circa 1400 and settlers began penetrating deeper into the forest. A small ruin in the village was probably from a manor farm owned by the Auersperg noble family and was said to be a hiding place for Veronika of Desenice. In the land registry of 1574 the settlement had one full farms and one half-farm with two owners, corresponding to a population between eight and 11. The 1770 census recorded three houses in Kunč. Kunč attained its greatest population in 1880, with 61 people living in 11 houses, after which it declined. The original ethnic German population, numbering 25 people from four houses, was evicted on 22 November 1941 and the village was burned by Italian troops during the Rog Offensive, probably between 20 and 23 August 1942. After the Second World War, the only structure at the site was a wooden shed with a stall and hayloft where forestry workers also lived part of the year.
Japanese honorifics
The Japanese language uses a broad array of honorific suffixes for addressing or referring to people. These honorifics attach to the end of people's names, as in Aman-san where the honorific -san was attached to the name Aman. These honorifics are often gender-neutral, but some imply a more feminine context (such as -chan) while others imply a more masculine one (such as -kun).
These honorifics are often used along with other forms of Japanese honorific speech, keigo, such as that used in conjugating verbs.
Usage
Although honorifics are not part of the basic grammar of the Japanese language, they are a fundamental part of the sociolinguistics of Japanese, and proper use is essential to proficient and appropriate speech. Significantly, referring to oneself using an honorific, or dropping an honorific when it is required, is a serious faux pas, in either case coming across as clumsy or arrogant.
They can be applied to either the first or last name depending on which is given. In situations where both the first and last names are spoken, the suffix is attached to whichever comes last in the word order.
Xi'an
Xi'an ([ɕí.án]; Chinese: 西安), formerly romanized as Sian, is the capital of Shaanxi province, located in the northwest of the China, in the center of the Guanzhong Plain. One of the oldest cities in China, the city was known as Chang'an before the Ming dynasty. Xi'an is the oldest of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China, having held the position under several of the most important dynasties in Chinese history, including Zhou, Qin, Han, Sui, and Tang. Xi'an is the starting point of the Silk Road and home to the Terracotta Army of Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
Since the 1990s, as part of the economic revival of interior China especially for the central and northwest regions, the city of Xi'an has re-emerged as an important cultural, industrial and educational centre of the central-northwest region, with facilities for research and development, national security and China's space exploration program. Xi'an currently holds sub-provincial status, administering 9 districts and 4 counties. According to the 2010 Census, Xi'an has an urban population of 5,566,711 in its built-up area made of 7 out of 10 districts (all but Yanliang, Lintong and Gaoling not urbanized yet), while the total population of the Municipality is up to 8,467,837. It is the most populous city in Northwest China, as well as one of the three most populous cities in Western China. According to a July 2012 report by the Economist Intelligence Unit, it was recently named as one of the 13 emerging megacities, or megalopolises, in China. The report pinpoints and highlights the demographic and income trends that are shaping these cities' development.
