ARRGH!

translation:
And the next morning, when it first became day, Dicaeopolis ordered everyone to prepare themselves. And the others prepared themselves wanting to journey as quickly as possible, and soon they were ready.



This is just a SAMPLE of the kind of thing I do for homework every day.... this is TWO LINES of Greek (and it's in another alphabet, I just transliterated for the top bit).... I have a few PAGES of this to do tonight!

All I can say is you have My condolences and support
 
I would rather talk about my little life, than lash out and spew hatred at everyone around me, like you and Hanns do.
 
ouch, good luck. Why ancient Greek?

I do know a few people who have had to study dead lanaguages, but it is either as history, art, or religious studies.

I took French in college but was so bac at it, I dropped the class before I could flunk it.

history courses... *wry grin*
 
oh that does explain it. Could be worse, could be hyroglyphs. (don't know how to spell that)--

I have a friend studying for a doctorate in ancient art that has to be able to read hyroglyphs.--What's funny is that he is in his 20's- I always pictured someone that far into grad school being older.-

OH well.

s alright thogh, just a bit eager to prove she has sex appeal


pixie, I wouldnt reccommend going to egypt, as it was a complete shithole (nd prob still is)

but after the massacre in 1997 security i very tight

espec for yanks and fat canadians

and there are a lot less tourists, (but more russians)

I am not trying to prove anything... and I dont plan to go to egypt.. I like ACIENT egypt.. I'm a pagan. and more americans are fat then canadians.
