And that is why I find different languages and dialects so fascinating. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ
I’ve been in Pennsylvania, in the Amish community a few times and I can understand every word of the Deitsch, Pennsilfaanisch-Deitsch (Pennsylvania German) but I can’t speak it at all. Learning that is my next adventure in the world of languages.
Btw, I just noticed on your homepage that you’re in Israel.
Visiting Israel is and has been on my my bucket list for a long time.
Stay safe.

I studied ancient Greek, and love Aristophanes. Tried to read Homer, but after Telemachus’ meeting with Menelaus, I could see why Helen ran out on him. What an obnoxious bastard, even if he did have a loud war cry.
