It would rank up there alongside "Sumerian Theory in Akkadian Grammar for Dummies".


It's about time someone took that tired franchise in a new direction.

Nice review! *NM* everynametaken - 31/05/2010 08:35:42 PM 421 Views
Thanks! I realize most people aren't going to rush out and read this, but the book was interesting. *NM* Tom - 31/05/2010 10:01:28 PM 370 Views

Sounds interesting. Legolas - 31/05/2010 09:11:31 PM 756 Views
Syriac is just a specific Aramaic dialect. You know one if you know the other, essentially. Tom - 31/05/2010 10:01:00 PM 912 Views
Right. Legolas - 31/05/2010 10:58:16 PM 893 Views
Modern Arabic dialects should be considered separate languages. Tom - 31/05/2010 11:53:37 PM 847 Views
Fair enough. Legolas - 02/06/2010 12:50:32 AM 905 Views
It's hardly revolutionary from a scholarly perspective. Tom - 02/06/2010 05:06:13 AM 756 Views
Your question about forgetting (before I forget) Tom - 01/06/2010 12:12:08 AM 830 Views
I see. Interesting. Legolas - 02/06/2010 12:52:09 AM 804 Views
"nasiy" is just one of the possible definitions that Manna gave, not the "proper reading". Tom - 02/06/2010 05:07:41 AM 810 Views
Ooh, interesting. Rebekah - 01/06/2010 10:51:42 PM 817 Views
I'm glad you enjoyed the review. I doubt you'll enjoy the book. Tom - 01/06/2010 10:56:12 PM 769 Views
Damn. Rebekah - 01/06/2010 11:01:30 PM 772 Views
There will probably be a more "general reader"-friendly book on it in the future. Tom - 01/06/2010 11:27:15 PM 789 Views
Excellent. I shall (forget to) keep an eye out for it. *NM* Rebekah - 01/06/2010 11:30:58 PM 343 Views

I'm sure he was referring to Sumerian theory in Akkadian grammar. Burr - 02/06/2010 01:50:30 AM 1059 Views

I think there's even a "Children of Tiamat and the Parents Who Flay Them" section. Tom - 02/06/2010 05:11:02 AM 761 Views
