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 reaches down to pick up the note and is very proud that he didn't fall over.

Uh-huh, sure. I'll tell you what Daniel's wearing for Halloween.

He palms the ball and stretches wide, dropping the note down the back of her shirt.

Dream steps between Janet and Jack.

Mr. O'Neill. Miss Frasier.

Is my lecture boring you? Or is that note about Koine Greek?

It takes Jack all of four seconds to realize that denying the note would be a bad idea.

"Not boring at all sir, sorry sir."

Good. Dream resumes his place at the front of the classroom.

"Oops," says Janet, looking sheepish and slightly amused. "Sorry."

She makes a mental note to write the next one to Jack in Greek for practice.
