What do these symbolize in the british coat of arms?

English
1 answer:
Paul [167]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1.Red lion holding the Honors of Scotland: The crest atop the Crown of Scotland is a red lion, seated and forward facing, itself wearing the Crown of Scotland and holding the two remaining elements of the Honours of Scotland, namely the Sword of State and the Sceptre of Scotland. This was also the crest used in the Royal Arms of the Kingdom of Scotland.  

2.Crowned English lion: The Lion is the emblem of England. It is now, on badges, actually a "lion passant gardant" - a walking lion, looking out at you full face, and was first used by Rollo, Duke of Normandy (father of William the Conqueror, who added the second lion to the Royal Coat of Arms for England.)

3. Fleurs-de-lis: The French monarchy possibly adopted the Fleur-de-lis for its royal coat of arms as a symbol of purity to commemorate the conversion of Clovis I, and a reminder of the Fleur-de-lis ampulla that held the oil used to anoint the king. So, the fleur-de-lis stood as a symbol of the king's divinely approved right to rule.

4.Scottish lion rampant: It seems that the rampant lion design was first used as a symbol of the Scottish kingdom by King Alexander II (1214 - 1249 AD). It appeared as a coat of arms on one of his seals in 1222, and also later, on a seal of Alexander III.

5.Irish Harp: An Irish harp appears on the Royal coat of arms of the United  Kingdom to represent Ireland's place in the UK. The shield is  quartered, with the guardant lions of England filling the first and   forth quarters, the rampant lion and double treasure  flory-counterflory of Scotland in the second, and the Irish harp in  the third. The Irish harp is the featured element on the coat of   arms of Ireland.

6.Crowned English Lion: The dexter supporter is a likewise crowned English lion; the sinister, a Scottish unicorn. According to legend a free unicorn was considered a very dangerous beast; therefore the heraldic unicorn is chained, as were both supporting unicorns in the royal coat of arms of Scotland.  

7.Unicorn: The Lion and the Unicorn are symbols of the United Kingdom. They are, properly speaking, heraldic supporters appearing in the full royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom. The lion stands for England and the unicorn for Scotland.

I hope this helps in some or any way.

Which sentence in this excerpt shows a mocking tone?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The sentence in the excerpt that shows a mocking tone is:

Like he could ever be an astronaut!

Explanation:

To mock means to make fun of something or someone in a derisive, cruel manner. Notice how the sentence "Like he could ever be an astronaut!" mocks the sentence that came before it. It is, in a cruel, sarcastic way, refuting the possibility of Jason becoming an astronaut like he used to dream of. We can easily hear the tone in which the sentence would be spoken in our minds - a laughing, ironic tone.

Can someone help me right an essay on the topic , Should workers have the right to strike?, it is an argumentative essay
Anestetic [448]
In my opinion workers have the absolute write to strike. I believe this because if workers feel that they arent being treated nicely and they feel mistreted they should have the option to strike.For those that say workers shouldnt strike there not seeing the big picture.Maybe the fellow worker is being misunderstood and isnt getting paod even though there working hard and they have to pay there expenses. In conclusion i believe workers should be able to strike because they have lives too.
