Creature Languages, 03/02, Period 3
"I hope you are all prepared for your midterm. The test is on your desks; you have until the end of the class period to complete it. After you have handed it in, you may leave."
Creature Languages Midterm
Part One: Essay
Answer two of the following three questions.
1. We have learned Spider, Dragon, Rat and Cat. Which did you prefer and why?
2. Have you attempted to apply your lessons in this class in your dealings with animals in the world? Briefly discuss what you did and the results. If you have not, explain a situation in which it might be beneficial.
3. How do creature languages reflect the culture of the beings who speak them? Give an example.
Part Two: Translation
Translate these sentences into creature languages to the best of your ability:
a. SPIDER -- "A stitch in time saves nine.”
b. DRAGON -- "Necessity is the mother of all invention."
c. RAT -- "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me."
d. CAT -- "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."
Extra Credit
Write a dialogue (three to five exchanges) in the creature tongue of your choice.
[OOC: This is really a test of creativity, obviously. Handwave it if you have to, but it's 25 percent of your grade, and I need something by the end of Spring break.]

2. Have you attempted to apply your lessons in this class in your dealings with animals in the world? Briefly discuss what you did and the results. If you have not, explain a situation in which it might be beneficial. As mentioned above having learnt I have feel I have been able to interact with my kitten and understand better what it wants. For example in the mornings I used to be able to understand whether he was meowing for food or because he needed to pee.
