Blame my range of multilingual swearing capabilities on the major metropolitan melting pot that is San Francisco! :P

Bienvenue à Kevin's Watch, tcovenant, Auleliel, et Stutty!

Heh. . . I speak English fluently (or so the university claimed when they gave me my BA in English Literature). I also know:

basic French (far from fluent here!)--from college
smattering of Danish--mostly what a traveler would need (dated a Dane)
smattering of Spanish--high school is to thank for this
fair Latin--taught myself


And the not-enough to be really significant:
Egyptian heiroglyphs
Greek
Romanian
Russian
Ukrainian
Slavonic
Bulgarian
German
Mandarin (roomate is learning this, so I pick up fragments)

Fantasy languages:
Quenya (high elvish)
Old Tongue ;)

I mostly swear in american english, or Uk english. My grandmother was an English immigrant. ;)

Overall, I am a dabbler in languages. :?


Edited for spelling.

What's "Old Tongue" from?

~Lyr,

I'll have to tell Hyperception he can converse with you on the Watch in either Latin or Quenya. I doubt he'll actually do it, but he'll get a grin out of the thought.

My friend's trying to teach me Quenya, but it's not working very well. (My fault entirely...)

Heh. . . I never said I was all that good at Quenya. . . just that I know some. :P

Auleliel, that's pretty cool! Sounds like fun to do that with a friend. :D

Yeah, especially as she's trying to teach it to me at the same time she's teaching herself Sindarin.

Just a bit about myself

Post by Graehstone »

Hello everyone
Please allow me to tell you a bit about myself.
On the net I am known as Graehstone and I am passed my mid forties, married and no children (this time around,) a disabled cold war vet, househusband and Parrot wrangler, part-time poet and professional ponderer, vacuum cleaner pilot extraordinaire, medical guinea pig (I have a cortical stimulator attached to my spine) and culinary genius (so the wife tells me ... I make a mean PB&J sandwich Image) as well as anything else that I can be/do to make my wife’s and Parrots lives easier.
So in short I am a stay at home dad to 1 Wife, 1 Congo African Grey, 1 Timneh African Grey, 1 Senegal and 1 Cockatiel, all girls (sigh, lol) due to my spine doing things it doesn’t know it’s not supposed to.
Needless to say I am an avid reader and always have been, with the “Covenant” series having been my favorite for as long as I can remember.
Thanks for having me and many more thanks to the admins for fixing the “trouble” I had getting in here.

May all your days be filled with Health, Love and Happiness and your nights with Passion.

HAHA, yeah we're all pretty goofy around these parts. Make sure you explore all the little nooks and crannies, there's plenty of good stuff around here.

Welcome! :biggrin:
