Heh heh. Seriously though, this is a great use of the platform! I'm slipping further and further behind with both keeping up and creating so I'm glad I caught this. It's right up my alley. I did TEFL for a couple of years and enjoyed it, but that was before the Internet was really much of a thing. Hard to imagine now! I taught in a state school and private biz school in Odessa, then in a private school in Sochi.
It's funny; I miss languages a lot. I studied Russian for eight years and worked with it for 12 after that. Now I barely use it at all. Seems like a waste in many ways.
My daughter is just going into 3rd year at high school when the kids here choose their subjects. She dropped French! It was her best subject and her teacher is disappointed, as are we, but it's her schooling, right. I dropped French at that age too, so I suppose it's just part of her path.
Anyway; keep the linguistics posts coming if you can. You've got a big fan right here in Scotland!
Cams, are you insulting me? :o
Moi? How could you think that? ;)
After completing an etymological forensics, I had to suspect that, Cams. But perhaps you were thinking of the 16th century meaning. 😀
