The term circumflex is also used to describe similar tonal accents that result from combining two vowels in related languages such as Sanskrit and Latin. Since Modern Greek has a stress accent instead of a pitch accent, the circumflex has been replaced with an acute accent in the modern monotonic orthography.he term circumflex is also used to describe similar tonal accents that result from combining two vowels in related languages such as Sanskrit and Latin.

Astronomers have found at least 146 moons orbiting planets in our solar system. Another 27 moons are awaiting official confirmation of their discovery. This number does not include the six moons of the dwarf planets, nor does this tally include the tiny satellites that orbit some asteroids and other celestial objects.
Instead, they're likely hunks of rocks the planet has pulled into its orbit â which is part of why half of Jupiter's moons orbit in the wrong direction. The current tally is 67 moons total, nosing out Saturn's 62 to be the most moons claimed by a single planet. The most recent additions, number 66 and 67, were discovered in 2011. But astronomers haven't actually caught up to naming all those moons â only 51 have approved names.
