By the way, you know how I was carrying on about Láadan a few weeks back?

 

Well, guess who managed to wrangle a Gender and Linguistics term paper out of analyzing that language?

 

Heh heh heh. I still think it’s a dippy language, but analyzing why it seems dippy was actually pretty fun. And there were some interesting bits. But I feel a little evil now ...

So evil!

*admires*

Good show. I'd be really interested in reading that paper if you put it online *coughs* because I picked up a used copy of her first book to poke at the language, and now you make me stare at it warily!

Will do, once I get all these OTHER term papers written ...

Would you maybe share the paper? I'd like to read it, even though I'm not a linguist. I'm more interested in the gender thing. Seperatist feminism fascinates me.

Yes, since y'all asked. But it may be a few days, as it needs formatting and I'm doing SEVEN THOUSAND other things right now. So keep a weather eye on the horizon and all that ...
