[Tlhingan-hol] KLCP 1 vocab practice...

Sun Apr 3 23:04:05 PDT 2016

Oh man, what a crazy weekend... I've made sure to continue doing the Anki cards and writing down the difficult words, but writing the sentences takes more time and thought. And now I need to find all my words to practice; some are written on a beat-up mini notebook that lives in my pocket, some on a junk mail envelope, some on a dried-out wetnap... I need to become more organized. But enough with the excessive verbosity.

The words I need to practice are qech, veS, SIm, 'ISjaH, tup, qej, and DeS.

—-—-—

wa' tup ret qech vIghajchoH
A minute ago I had an idea. (English idiom?)

veS qun vIghojmoHlaH!
I can teach the history of warfare!

poH vISImmeH 'ISjaH vIlegh.
In order to calculate the period of time I see a calendar.

'ach ghIq jIpum 'ej DeSwIj QIDlu'.
But then I fell and my arm got wounded. (correct use of -lu'?)

DaH jIqej.
Now I am grouchy.

—-—-—

Okay, so that wasn't entirely coherent, but it's midnight!

-QISta'
'Iqqu' ray'meywIj!

I too have been thinking that QISta' tends to use the pronoun 'oH more than
necessary, but we should wait for the BG make those comments so that a) one
person isn't hounded by multiple criticisms, and b) to ensure that the
learner is getting information from someone who has been designated as
having the requisite skills.

You yourself have been treated a little differently, because you're so
prolific that the BG needs some help keeping up with you.
