not_your_realMeme from just about everybody on my friendslist:
Name a CD you own that you think no-one else on your friendslist does:
Hmm, which genre to pick? :)
Ok, this isn't a shoo-in but I'm going for A Circle is Cast by Libana.
Name a book you own that you think no-one else on your friendslist does:
Well... how about "Language Typology and Syntactic Description Vol. III: Grammatical Categories and the Lexicon"? Although technically there is somebody on my friendslist from the Conlang group who might well have this, which would probably also go for any random obscure foreign language dictionaries I could claim.
I could also bet on "The Triumph of the Moon: A History of Modern Pagan Witchcraft" by Ronald Hutton. Granted, I would only get points for this due to my not having friended some friends I have in Virginia. Same goes for the Libana CD, I think.
Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that you think no-one else on your friendslist does:
"Orlando". If I'm wrong, let me know. It would be fun to discuss :)
Name a place that you have visited that you think no-one else on your friendslist has:
CCCP, 1989, about nine months before the Wall fell in Berlin. Saw Leningrad, Moscow, and Riga (Latvia - it was part of the Soyuz Sovyetskikh Sotsialisticheskikh Respublik at the time. We went to Riga instead of Kiev out of concern Kiev might still have been glowing faintly).
If that doesn't win, maybe the honeymoon in Alaska counts.
Name a piece of technology or any sort of tool you own that you think no-one else on your friendslist has:
Technology, tools... I wonder if crafting supplies count. If it's not crafting supplies it would probably have to be software.
Ok, how about a linoleum cutter, the kind used for carving designs into linoleum blocks for printing?

Date: 2006-02-01 05:03 pm (UTC)I was thinking last night that you were the person I need to get some information from. I need basic first names in Farsi, and also an idea of the sentence structure of their language. Finally, I know that Farsi is *not* connected to Latin or French, but wanted to verify that with you. Also, do a lot of words end in tea?
Would you please let me know whatever you feel like looking up in your vast experience off list at the cousinsue addy?
I am reading a fantasy book that SimAlyce gave me to review and I'm having difficulty with the made up language.
I'm sorry... windbloeia ... for heaven's sake don't make up words if you can't do better than that!
