This type of variation is characteristic of the diglossia that exists throughout the Arabic-speaking world.

The particular variant (or register) used depends on the social class and education level of the speakers involved and the level of formality of the speech situation.

Often it will vary within a single encounter, e.g., moving from nearly pure MSA to a more mixed language in the process of a radio interview, as the interviewee becomes more comfortable with the interviewer.
|
Although Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) is a unitary language, its pronunciation varies somewhat from country to country and from region to region within a country.

Thus, Demeter, in her sadness, neglects to nourish the earth for the months that Persephone is gone, only doing so when she returns, until the process repeats again.

Eventually, Zeus permitted Persephone to rejoin her mother, prompting Demeter to end the pestilences which deprived the world of its prosperity.
|
However, because the Fates decreed that whoever ate or drank in the underworld was doomed to spend eternity there, Persephone was still forced to remain in the realm for either four or six months of the year (depending on the telling), as she was tricked by Hades into eating pomegranate seeds of a corresponding amount.

These episodic periods became the winter and spring seasons, with the "death" and "rebirth" of Persephone being allegorical for the cycle of life and the experience of all beings.

The fact that an Executive Council that had lost the confidence of the Dáil could not request a dissolution created the possibility of a political stalemate.
|
It meant that if the Executive Council resigned after being defeated, and the Dáil could not agree on a new Council, a Catch-22 situation might be created, in which the inability of the Dáil to choose a cabinet could not be resolved by the holding of a general election.

Rather, to dismiss a single member, the whole council had to be dismissed and reformed .

Additionally, the President of the Council could not ask the Governor-General to dissolve the Dáil on his own initiative, but the Council as a whole had to do so.

centre
|
When the piston approaches bottom dead centre, both the intake and the exhaust ports are "open", which means that there is atmospheric pressure inside the cylinder.
|
The compression in a two-stroke diesel engine is similar to the compression that takes place in a four-stroke diesel engine: As the piston passes through bottom centre and starts upward, compression commences, culminating in fuel injection and ignition.
|
Instead of a full set of valves, two-stroke diesel engines have simple intake ports, and exhaust ports (or exhaust valves).
|
Therefore, some sort of pump is required to blow the air into the cylinder and the combustion gasses into the exhaust.
|
This process is called scavenging.
