I finally got round to starting the exercises in my dad's Arabic grammar and Arabic syntax is kinda strange.

For example, the old house is literally the house the old (al-baitu l-qadimu). The house is old - the house old (al-baitu qadimun). The old house is small - the house the old, it small (al-baitu l-qadimu, huwa saghirun). (No arabic script because I can't spell in it yet.)

I suppose Arabs find English syntax equally odd though.

Does anyone else read Afterschool Charisma? It's really good, I promise.

Finally, have a meme!

Pick a character and I will give and explain the top five ideas/concepts/etc I keep in mind while writing that character that I believe are essential to accurately depicting them.

(much shorter than before) muselist

(Feel free to ask me about characters not on there if you know I've played them in the past.)

meme, learning arabic is hard, rp, new fandom
