Is other a verb?
Like many English words, other possesses great flexibility in meaning and function. Over the past few centuries, it has served as an adjective, an adverb, a noun, and a pronoun. In recent decades, other has increased its part-of-speech portfolio to include verb use, having acquired the meaning "to treat or consider (a person or a group of people) as alien to oneself or one's group.” Some people find it disconcerting when a word takes on a new part of speech, a process known as functional shift. The phenomenon is quite common, however -- our language contains many thousands of words which are reported to have been formed in this fashion.

In the sentence taken from the text “Over the past few centuries, it has served as an adjective, an adverb, a noun, and a pronoun”, the pronoun in bold letters refers to the word “other”. Sometimes, though, “it” does not have a referent and serves a grammatical function only, thus being named, for example, “dummy it”. Mark the alternative in which “it” has a referent.

Speakers use a finite set of rules to produce and understand an infinite set of possible sentences. These rules comprise the grammar of a language, which is learned when you acquire the language and includes the sound system, the structure of words, how words may be combined into phrases and sentences, the ways in which sounds and meanings are related, and the words or lexicon. The sounds and meanings of these words are related in an arbitrary fashion. And so are the gestures used by deaf signers. Language, then, is a system that relates sounds (or hand and body gestures) with meanings; when you know a language you know this system.

A father earns the gratitude of his children by nurturing them to be preeminent in the Assembly of the Learned.

Thirukural, verse 67, circa 100 A.D. in: KUMARAVADIVELU, B. 2003.

Regular verbs ending in voiced sounds are pronounced with the sound /d/ in the simple past and past perfect, and so are most adjectives with the same form. However, the word “Learned”, present in the quotation above, has a distinctive pronunciation feature when functioning as an adjective or a noun: /ˈlɜːnɪd/. Among the words below, choose the one that follows the same characteristic of pronunciation when used in such functions.

Because the culture of any community has many facets and manifestations, it would be practically impossible to deal with all of them in the classroom and prepare students for the many situations that they might encounter in the course of their functioning in ESL/EFL environments. However, many important aspects of teaching the second culture can be brought forth and addressed via classroom instruction, and some of these are discussed here. The most important long-term benefits of teaching culture may be to provide learners with the awareness and the tools that will allow them to achieve their academic, professional, social, and personal goals and become successful in their daily functioning in L2 environments.
