Did you do your reps and daily reading anon?
>>25423378yes
>>25422140>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxYoFlnJLoE [Embed]>'The Poor Man of Nippur' in Akkadian with subtitles in English and other languages. The only thing I don't get is why the professor in the beginning says māt Akkadi 𒆳𒌵𒆠, literally 'land of Akkad' if the subtitles say 'land of Babylonia'.
Any Old French speakers in? Especially of Anglo-Norman dialects specifically? I sure hope so
>>25423463Btw if you want a relatively easy way to convert the cuneiform transliteration into actual characters, EBL has a great conversion tool:https://www.ebl.lmu.de/tools/cuneiform-converterIf syllable characters and logograms are typed with spaces, it will produce spaces in the output. If they are typed with hyphens, it will produces non-spaced output. A propos, a highly recommended manual of Akkadian by Huehnergard (3rd edition, clean searchable .pdf) + keys:omnika dot org/library/key-to-a-grammar-of-akkadian-3ed - manualdokumen dot pub/qdownload/a-grammar-of-akkadian-3nbsped.html - keysA lot of resources I recommended for Sumerian last year actually overlap with Akkadian, so whoever updates the OP FAQ, please make a separate section for Akkadian and duplicate the relevant links, or make a shared section for cuneiform languages.>>25423480The best I can offer is modern French. I did try reading Chanson de Roland in Old French, it and requires consulting the dictionary quite a lot (like, 30% of words at least) if you don't study it as a proper separate language. I didn't go far past the beginning, so maybe it's doable as you grind it on.
>>25423523>omnika dot org/library/key-to-a-grammar-of-akkadian-3ed - manual>dokumen dot pub/qdownload/a-grammar-of-akkadian-3nbsped.html - keysDamn, the other way around.
>>25423480I present to you Anon for your amusement, a misogynistic poem from the Middle Ages period in Old French about the evils of women.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=cS322gHBGow&list=RDcS322gHBGow&start_radio=1&pp=ygUTVGhlIGphaWxlcnMgZWluaG9ybqAHAQ%3D%3D&ra=mOfficial name is: Tant y a femme scet bon tairThe poem is online if you search that. “A’onions cera d’acun complainte/ ir se mout sainte et mout juste.”
>>25423368ill roll and report
>>25423659ok i looked at Hero's Belopoeica 71-72pretty standard attic style with some words that i've never seen beforeταραχθήσονταί was tricky for me but this seems to be from τάραξις, which i should be familiar with through ἀταραξίαthe ξ aspirates in contact with the (typically aorist, here future because of primary endings and sigma) passive marker θή(σ)if ἀταραξία is tranquility, τάραξις is disturbance, and made into a future passive verb, "they will be disturbed"fun thanks
If i learn Hebrew can I read old scrolls?
>>25423855Yes
>>25423855you might be able to audit a biblical hebrew course from your local university. my uni is offering one this fall—not taking it bc im on fellowship and need to write
>>25423674it's from the verb ταράσσω(root ταραχ-) which I think even precedes in etymological order ταραξία and the rest
>>25424195oh nice thanks
people in the last thread were talking about Arabic and how it lacks good content, but I wonder are Persian and Turkish better?
>>25424481In the same vein I’ve always been curious about chagatai. It was a major literary medium for like 600 years or something. But I doubt there’s much scholarship outside of central asia nowadays on it, even though a lot of the corpus is mughal.
you know the drillWikipedia challenge: Go on Wikipedia, click on 'random article' and describe what it is about in your TL.Easy mode: 50 wordsMedium: 75 wordsHard: 100+ words
>>25424537Actually there are a few English textbooks on Chagatai and some Russian and Chinese ones as well. The Chagatai-language Tarikh-e-Hemidi is a very important account of late Qing Xinjiang history and has been translated into English, modern Uyghur, and Chinese, and there are also various other histories and documents from Xinjiang and pre-Russian Uzbekistan.It's easiest to learn Chagatai if you have an understanding of modern Uzbek or Uyghur, it's basically just Uyghur with more Persian grammar and a few words with different meanings For instance därya is sea in Chagatai and river in Uyghur (Uyghur uses Turkic dëñiz for sea)
>>25424607Filum concertinum est quiddam genus fili ferrei hamati, id est, cum spinis. Nomen habet de instrumento musico quod "concertinam" dicunt. Textum in spiris inter palos, potest hostes aut Mexicanos nostris finibus prohibere. Item potest captivos retinere ne ex carcere effugiant. Esti perutile est in bello, tamen periculosum est si tangitur.
