Parents of elementary school students are faced with an unexpected, at first glance, problem. Children hardly remember verses. And in this case, this is not related to the abilities of a particular student.
In order to learn a poem, a child must remember its content and the meaning of individual words. Without this, memorization turns into cramming. In order for a student to remember any text, images must be fixed in his memory that will help him reproduce it. And if the baby does not understand the meaning of individual words? The images associated with them are not formed. For example, without knowing the meaning of the word indus, the child will not be able to remember it.
Why words go out of circulation
There are many words that our grandparents used, but are no longer used by us in everyday life. We know their meaning, we are not surprised when we meet in fiction, but we do not use it in colloquial speech. Therefore, for our children, these are completely unfamiliar, meaningless terms. This is the so-called passive vocabulary. There is also an active, which is used by most of the population.
This division of vocabulary is characteristic of each era. Words leave our speech for various reasons. Some withdraw from circulation when an object or phenomenon associated with them disappears. They are called historicisms. For instance:
- caftan, kokoshnik, splinter - disappeared household items;
- elbow, fathom, arshin - designations of a measure of length;
- clerk, officer, city officer - officials.
Other terms are gradually becoming obsolete, as new names for the same subject, action, attribute appear. They are called archaisms:
- eyes - eyes;
- Lanites - cheeks;
- the actor is an actor.
The word "inda" in Russian literature
Reading classical works, we encounter similar historicisms and archaisms:
- in the tale of A.S. Pushkin about the golden cockerel: "From the wrath of the Indus, King Dadon cried";
- at M.E. Saltykov-Shchedrin "Poshekhonskaya antiquity": "Indus will take longing";
- at I.A. Goncharova's Ordinary Story: "Indo threw me into sweat with joy."
The meaning of the word Indus, or Indo, is found in the dictionary of Ushakov. It expresses the relation of the investigation, is used to strengthen and highlight the words standing after it. For example: "The forehead hit, Indo sparks rained down from the eyes." Synonyms are:
- already;
- even;
- so that;
- occasionally;
- in places;
- in some places;
- important;
- even;
- though;
- there;
- so that.
