Feeling the Luv

Crimlaw can always be depended upon to post something, usually something good. The only drawback to CrimLaw is that Lammers changes his format more often than a teenage girl changes her hair.

If only I could deny it . . .

Although my noble professor sejourned there a while.

Darustu al lu&at al arabi fii Utah.

It's been about 15 years since -- so I'm pretty useless except for a few words and phrases.

Yeah, I know the feeling. I used to be a fairly good linguist. Now if I want to read or write the language I have to rely on dictionaries, my speaking ability has waned and my ability to hear the language is worse.

It's frustrating because I remember being able to walk through the market in Egypt and talk with everyone and now when I try to speak to Arabs here in the States I get (1) a suspicious look & (2) a conversation quickly switched into English because they speak it better than I do Arabic.
