You know what's weird?

When Daniel, geeky linguist and archeologist on SG-1, reads a text and tells his crew that "it's Middle-English, pre-Chaucer" and the information actually makes sense to you. Yay for geeks!

hahah, yeah, you're right. That is weird. I mean, how many people actually know what middle english is and how many people have ever even heard of Chausser :)

I always made me wonder if all the other texts all always made sense, too ... oh, to speak the languages :-)

*pats* That's completely understandable. Luckily it's cooled down here a bit.

Eeeeek, I resemble that description. All these years after my lit degree and I can still say the Lord's Prayer in Anglo Saxon and recite the opening passages of Canterbury Tales in Middle English.

Maybe I should change my handle to "trustygeekgirl" ;)

haha, that's so cool! i get a bit like that when den's watching subtitled anime, screaming "he just said idiot!", "they just asked what that is", "they just called him a pervert!" at random intervals, even when i'm not watching. it's fun to feel clever. :)

it's been hot here the last two days, so hopefully it'll cool down for you guys soon!
