I've been reading a book about England during the Restoration (1640s) and I keep coming across the expression "uds lud". I gather it means something like "jeez" or "golly", but where does it come from?

i like to go to France, becuase it us a beautiful country with much for me to do and for me to see. My favourite city in France is Paris, as i love the renaissance art at the louvre. however, i am a member of a large family so it is often too expensive to travel abroad. if it is too expensive, i stay at home and study, or see my freinds!

John marched towards the antediluvian gate;he knew he was about to approach danger.

Sarah's chest throbed with pain;she clutched it in agony.

Harry entered the great dungeon;he knew he wouldn't come out alive;two eyes stared at him ravenously.


I'm not really sure about the last one, i tried to be a bit more adventurous as I've noticed that in books some authors use 2 semi-colons in one sentence-is the last sentence correct in punctuation? And what about the other ones?

When a polygraph test is judged inconclusive, this is no reflection on the examinee. Rather, such a judgment means that the test has failed to show whether the examinee was truthful or untruthful. Nevertheless, employers will sometimes refuse to hire a job applicant because of an inconclusive polygraph test result.

can you please tell what does it mean "this is no reflection on the examinee" . what kind of reflection they are talking about here ?

I am also surprised to see that for a job hiring there are polygraph test !!!
As per my information , polygraph tests are performed on criminals to get secret information .

Please make a case why it would be a good idea to teach Ebonics in schools. If you can't make a fairly reasonable case for it just say "It's Ludicrous".
