Damned clever too, the contortion of language to comply with the "rules of grammar." I suppose that this is another thing that I owe our colleague James Knudsen's father, Morris, who taught me Latin in high school. Latin word order was <i>very</i> flexible and probably easier to read than English that has been similarly contorted, since English - unlike Latin (and German) - doesn't have so many word endings to indicate "cases," etc. Language - it has been a love affair of my lifetime.Moristotlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02211602374384087074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28676316.post-46961674277224159762017-02-15T09:28:24.384-05:002017-02-15T09:28:24.384-05:00Yous was almost as good as Billy's.Yous was almost as good as Billy's.Ednoreply@blogger.com
