Ah, now I understand . . .

Ah, now I understand . . .

September 12, 2019

Imagine if you were given a multi-year project for your job, or a huge class project for the whole school year.  Now imagine if the only instructions or pointers about how to do it are written in super technical language that you can’t understand at all.  “In the syllabification of morpheme combinations, deletion of vowels […]

June 9, 2019

As I learn interesting linguistic “stuff” this summer that I think non-linguistic people will understand, I’ll try to post some on here so you can join me in delving into the mysteries of God’s creativity in creating languages!

Exciting news!

April 16, 2019

I’m so excited! No, I haven’t been given permission to return to My Country. But at least I get to go back to other countries in West Africa for a month, leaving in less than a week! I get to spend a week in a big city, getting visas and connecting with other missionaries there […]
