Languages, 10/26

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

To his Classics students, Dream delivers a lecture on Koine Greek. After he is done, he puts forward a question for discussion: What were the benefits of Koine as an international language? Are international languages still valuable?

For his Languages of Asia students, he passes out calligraphy paper, pens, and a primer on Chinese writing. Work on understanding why Chinese is written as it is written, and on copying the characters showin in the handout. Next week, you will move into writing with understanding.

Again, there are no classes on Friday. I will see you all on Monday.

Jack smies at her and discreetly flips the bird. He can be heard muttering something like "Stupid pirate."

Murphy signs in before taking his seat.

He almost falls asleep a couple of times during the lecture, despite his best efforts (and the double strength coffee he'd brought in).

((Connnor's mun has a killer headache and is doing only the minimal today))

Connor follows his bother ito class and takes his seat, diligently sipping on his coffee, trying to make it last.
