FWIW - I have no idea how any non-semetic language speakers are learning Hebrew and I have mad respect for them. I suspect the "because this is how it is in this language" answers to "why is this...?" questions begin in the 10th week of class.
Sheryl, happy birthday!
May today be peaceful and calm.
And with cake!
Oh, Toddson, I'm so sorry, that sounds awful. I hope you feel better soon.
Oh Todd, that sounds terrible! I can't believe no one helped you! I'm glad you're up and doing okay. I hope the blood was the worst of it and you don't have too much residual soreness.
Happy birthday, Sheryl!
Happy belated, Drew!
Oh no, Toddson! That does sound terrible, and I hope you are actually OK. May I recommend some painkillers before you go to bed tonight?
Ouch, Toddson. I hope the ice helps and that you don't end up with too much stiffness or soreness.
Toddson, you poor baby. I hope you feel better soon. I'm sorry no one helped you. I think everyone must be feeling extra wary because of Covid-19.
I read Natter, and stopped after Laura's post here Laura "Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess" Apr 17, 2020 7:38:07 am PDT, so I returned to this post of yours Toddson "Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess" Apr 17, 2020 7:49:08 am PDT:
One of my college professors - Classical Greek - was of the opinion that any language with regular verbs just wasn't worth her time.
This gave a completely different context to -t's post here -t "Natter 76: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Foaminess" Apr 17, 2020 7:52:24 am PDT:
Oh, Toddson, I'm so sorry! That sounds like a terrible experience. I hope the physical effects are not too bad or long lasting.
I mean, I know as a breed, we Buffistas are precious about language, but...
Breakfast this morning would have been better if we had not cut the strawberries with the knife that was used to chop onions.
I mean,
some
people would probably find that combination yummy.
Not me though.
There is an Italian salad with both strawberries and onions, but you don't want to have sneaky cross flavors.
And now I miss Strega. I still can't believe she's gone.
It's boggling.
Take care of yourself, Todd! Please don't land on your pretty face!
