intonation indicates that you're asking a question.

While not mandatory, many Semitic languages employ a "question word" -- usually untranslatable -- when a word like "who," "what," etc., doesn't exist in a sentence. Amharic uses ወይ, wey, after a verb to specify that there is, in fact, a question being asked (seen in ጥሩ ነው ወይ, t'iru näw wey, "Is ( Read more... )

roxbear should do interviews, as he's got another great question:

How deep do you know history of your family? How big genealogy tree you can draw for your family? And who or what give you that information?
I've always had interest in my family, but following the family tree has been amazingly difficult. My dad's side has been easier to follow because all ( Read more... )

fuzzed asks ...

If I was your bread, would you be my butter??

Of course!! But, you know, we have to be in the same place at the same time to achieve such "buttering". ^^;;;

March is "Ask A Question, Get An Answer" Month. So, I'm sure you can figure what you need to do, in order to get answers.

darkphuque asks ...

Have you always been religious, if not why and do you identify with a given ethnic background.. as in Russian Jew, Turkish Jew, etc.?
For more than a decade -- up until I was in college -- I wasn't religious at all. I'm not really sure what it is that brought me back, but it's an integral part of me now. Because of not having done ( Read more... )

Speaking of Eurovision, Arktos62 asks ...

If you could have been to one Eurovision Song Contest in person, which one would it be?
1998 in Birmingham! There were so many entries that I loved that year, and it was right at the start of the enthusiastic excited crowd (as opposed to the bored, dull-as-dirt crowd that would be watching in the 70's contests). I ( Read more... )

roxbear got a two-for-one deal going and asks:

How did you start drawing bears, do you make it by nature or only form imagination? And self-centred question too, do you make avatar drawings to other people?At first it was people I had seen, from memory, and the drawings were just terrible. I had no concept of basic human proportion or anything for years ( Read more... )

bigfootcub asks ...

are you done with the project yet?!?!
Oy. No. :: laugh :: I hadn't heard anything from you after I missed the last deadline so it was put on the backburner. I'm honest at least, ne? I can't wait to have my own computer to do my own work, because right now I'm sharing Carl's, and it makes graphics projects a bit of a pain when Carl wants ( Read more... )

didactic_cudgel asks ...

Do you miss comic writing? I miss Aadroma!
I sure do! As much as there's a part of me that loves more serious projects like portraiture, one of my childhood dreams was to draw comics for a living, and it remains even as I get older and realize how much of the standard Sunday comic fare kind of blows. Hey, you're not as discerning as a ( Read more... )

arktos62 asks ...

When was the last time you laughed until you cried?

About a month ago. Seriously, the board game Apples to Apples is freakin' FANTASTIC and if you haven't played it, you're missing out. For those unfamiliar with the game, players get cards dealt to them featuring a myriad of nouns -- "wet dogs," "The Suez Canal," "bacon cheeseburgers ( Read more... )
