Trying to post

Greetings TK, I am trying over and over again to make a first post but in vain. Does this one work?

Life: off topic continuation of " So linguistic time "

Greetings!

I've known about textkit for some time but am only now taking the plunge. I am Jonathan. I am a religious studies and classics double major so this forum should be a no-brainer for me.

In terms of languages, I only got serious about studying languages at about 19 or 20. Before that, I had taken two years of high school Spanish (didn't everyone?) and two quarters of Chinese at a local community college. I ...

Introduction

Hello all,

I have been reading the forums here for the last week in search of info about learning Latin and Greek. I have previously gone through Wheelock's with an online group (I can't believe I ate the whole thing!) and part of another out-of-print text with another group (this eventually folded because the moderator's life got too busy). I also have a degree (from long ago) in French and have studied some Spanish with ...

Randy Gibbons: Self-Introduction

This is my initial post to Textkit. My name is Randy Gibbons. I was a classics PhD candidate many years ago but never completed my dissertation and didn't stay in the field (I eventually became, and am, an IT professional). A few years ago, in anticipation of retirement, I began resurrecting my Latin and Greek. I have also been taking some grad seminars (not for credit) in the classics dept. of a nearby college (currently, ...

Introduction

Hi all! My name is Nyc. I am a 3rd year Bible student and busy with my 3rd semester of Greek. I enjoy the language but it is pretty difficult hence my signing up here. Hoping to do well in Greek this semester - Pretty keen for some assistance with phrasal analysis. Just as a point of interest, I really like Earl Grey tea, dark roast coffee, and seafood ...

Update to New Member Rules

I revised the forum rules and I no longer require new members to post in the introduction thread that is mega-long. It was a good idea at first, but it's been suggested to me (for quite some time) that it is long and too difficult to maintain an orderly thread.

New members are now asked to create their own introduction post on the open board or they may, at their own peril, post directly on ...
