Examples
Application packets for BLET are due Friday, Dec. 4. Packets are available in the Lee Building at the Hamlet Campus or the Honeycutt Center at the Scotland County Campus.
One example is English "bleat" for the sheep noise: in medieval times it was pronounced approximately as "blairt" (but without an R-component), or "blet" with the vowel drawled, which is much more accurate as onomatopoeia than the modern pronunciation.
Students completing the BLET course and passing the state exam are also eligible to receive 13 credit hours towards an Associate in Applied Science in Criminal Justice from RichmondCC.
The six-month BLET program at RichmondCC uses N.C. Criminal Justice Training and Standards Commission mandated topics and methods of instruction.
The change in meaning probably occurred by the way of 'bruised fruit', as is still found in French blet.
