I should have finished my dissertation a long time ago and found myself a teaching position somewhere. But many unexpected detours in life... I am still working on the research for it, as well as writing a book. So there's always something new to learn in

mirrorbird (21:57:28)
ah i wasn't sure where you were

mirrorbird (21:57:18)
script vs language... so... what is your learning story? cause i know you are already educated enough to teach at a high level

Oldchap (21:57:07)
I'm living in Kurdistan now. I've got a good teacher.

i've seen the dude who runs the newsagent down the road reading "arabic" newspaper, obviously that one is Urdu

A lot of that is testosterone combined with fundamentalist religiosity...

mirrorbird (21:55:43)
OC: who is teaching you Kurdish?

mirrorbird (21:55:23)
yes, we saw some nasty dynamiting of sculpture in the headlines. i suppose this was hyper-quranic enthusiasm, but who fucking know, when you've got kids and ammo

Oldchap (21:55:05)
I've been learning Kurdish lately which has been interesting, in regard to learning about minor differences in the Persian script, which Kurdish uses (Persian script being based on Arabic script).
