Proper nounPlural - From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. The Middle East (or, formerly more common, the Near East) is a region that spans southwestern Asia, southeastern Europe, and northeastern Africa. It has no clear boundaries, often used as a synonym to Near East, in opposition to Far East. The corresponding adjective to the Middle East is Middle-Eastern and the derived noun is Middle-Easterner. The history of the Middle East dates back to ancient times, and throughout its history the Middle East has been a major centre of world affairs. The Middle East is also the historical origin of three of the world’s major religions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. The Middle East generally has an arid and hot climate, with several major rivers providing for irrigation to support agriculture in limited areas. Many countries located around the Persian Gulf have large quantities of crude oil. In modern times the Middle East remains a strategically, economically, politically, culturally and religiously sensitive region. From Wikipedia under the

This region, under a ridge of high pressure called the subtropical high, is an area which receives little precipitation and has variable winds mixed with calm. The Horse Latitudes, also called Subtropical High, are subtropic latitudes between 30 and 35 degrees both north and south. The consistently warm, dry conditions of the horse latitudes contribute to the existence of temperate deserts, such as the Sahara Desert in Africa, the southwestern United States and northern Mexico, and parts of the Middle East in the Northern Hemisphere, and the Atacama Desert, the Kalahari Desert, and the Australian Desert in the Southern Hemisphere.

Q. I need to know what I can expect to make as an ESL teacher in the Middle East, and if there's any radical cultural adjustments I need to be ready for. Thanks! Asked by Lianne B - Mon Mar 2 10:55:55 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. I was an ESL teacher in Russia. Each company that you work for has a different pay scale. They also have other incentives...pay your rent, reimburse for tickets, etc. Of course there will be cultural adjustments, isn't that way you want to go there to teach, to learn a new culture? Good luck, I loved my experience, I hope that you do also. Answered by Dee W - Mon Mar 2 12:48:46 2009 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Middle East" |
