Pustolovina: adventure in Serbian

Tuesday, August 30, 2005

blood-sucking fun

I never knew to appreciate all of the cognates in Spanish until I tried to learn relatively cognate-free Arabic. Smart money says I will start appreciating Arabic shortly.

I learned a few days ago that there is only one Serbian-English cognate: vampire. I'm picking up Teach Yourself Serbian tomorrow. I'm feeling daunted.

I may not be able to say much, but at least I'll be able to talk about Dracula.
