I actually have employment that will also be teaching me Slovak in exchange for me teaching English. Unsure how my age comes into play into our conversation here. As a grown man, I am sure you are quite capable of learning how to spell basic words.I will look like a dork when I am learning Slovak next month, but I am open to learning new things. I will also be learning German and Czech because I am open to learning other languages and spelling and pronouncing them properly as they were intended. So, how good are you are doing that? Seriously, just take it as a lesson. I certainly will next month.I brought up your age because the last time written communication skills mattered a lot more to me personally was around the time you were born. If I said paid or boundaries while speaking to you, would you be able to tell if they were misused or misspelled? I'm the first to admit that my writing skills are mediocre at best. I'm not ashamed of it, it's not my forte as we say. Kinser is much better equipped to communicate with the college crowd than me. I suppose, I could go back to using short and pithy responses. I'm really good with that style but it tends to end discussions and arguments and weaken or eliminate positions pretty quick.
Oh, I'm sure that I could learn a foreign language if I really needed to or really interested in doing so but I'm not so what's the point of me doing that right now to prove to you that I could do that too. I'm not sure if the Bohemian language of the 1860's was Czech or Slavic or a variation of the two but that's the native language that my great-great grand parents spoke when they settled in the USA or what was the South Dakota territory back then before it became an American state.
