Ronja (given Name)
Ronja is a feminine given name in use largely in Scandinavian countries. It became widely known when the Swedish author Astrid Lindgren wrote her 1981 children's book '' Ronja Rövardotter''. In the English translation of the book the name was translated as Ronia. It may also be translated as Ronya. It is also the Swedish rendering of the Russian diminutive Роня for Veronica. Very few people were given this name in Scandinavian countries prior to 1981. In Finland, Ronja has been used as a first name as early as the 1920s. It was the third most popular name given to baby girls born in the Faroe Islands in 2008 and is also rising in popularity in other Scandinavian countries.

2008 East Honiara By-election
8 (eight) is the natural number following 7 and preceding 9. Etymology English ''eight'', from Old English '', æhta'', Proto-Germanic ''*ahto'' is a direct continuation of Proto-Indo-European '' *oḱtṓ(w)-'', and as such cognate with Greek and Latin , both of which stems are reflected by the English prefix oct(o)-, as in the ordinal adjective ''octaval'' or ''octavary'', the distributive adjective is ''octonary''. The adjective ''octuple'' (Latin ) may also be used as a noun, meaning "a set of eight items"; the diminutive ''octuplet'' is mostly used to refer to eight siblings delivered in one birth. The Semitic numeral is based on a root ''*θmn-'', whence Akkadian ''smn-'', Arabic ''ṯmn-'', Hebrew ''šmn-'' etc. The Chinese numeral, written (Mandarin: ''bā''; Cantonese: ''baat''), is from Old Chinese ''*priāt-'', ultimately from Sino-Tibetan ''b-r-gyat'' or ''b-g-ryat'' which also yielded Tibetan '' brgyat''. It has been argued that, as the cardinal num ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Ronia, The Robber's Daughter (film)
''Ronia, the Robber's Daughter'' (in the UK, ''Ronja Rövardotter'' in Sweden, ''Ronja Robbersdaughter'' in the USA) is a Swedish fantasy film which was released to cinemas in Sweden on 14 December 1984, directed by Tage Danielsson, based on the 1981 novel of the same title by Astrid Lindgren, and adapted for the screen by Lindgren herself. When the film was broadcast on television two years after its cinema premiere, the film was twenty minutes longer and uncensored (the cinema release allowed viewing from 7 years and older). This spurred a debate where critics asked if film was more harmful in cinemas than on television. The film was selected as the Swedish entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 58th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee. Plot Ronia, daughter of robber-chief Mattis, becomes friends with Birk Borkasson. His father, robber-chief Borka, is the main rival and fiercest enemy of Ronia's father. The film opens at the castle of Mattis (Börje Ahl ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
