AlyzaCCC: (I was thinking about mailing the dialog as
a homework assignment again, except for the fact that
only 2 people did the homework due today...
AlyzaCCC: okay, Arlene, please say something to Greg
that he can respond to
Arlene: I did!
Arlene: in what language :)
Arlene: ok, one sec
AlyzaCCC: I know, Arlene!!! I am glad you did your
homework, I just wished the rest of the class who
were not on vacation or overly busy had done it too
Arlene: I was out of town a lot too
Arlene: should I just ask a question using
transliteration?
Greg3: guilt does not become you, Alyza ;-)
Arlene: that's not guilt
Arlene: Ahnee po kee Ahnee talmeedah bahkeetah shel
Alyza.
Arlene: Alyza hamoreh shehlee
AlyzaCCC: Greg, I am not down on you, it is just
frustrating when you have a class of 9, and only 2 do
the homework. It is not guilt, or I would not have
said anything about those who were overly busy or on
vacation
ASTRO: ahlan
AlyzaCCC: okay, Arlene, how about in Hebrew characters?
ASTRO: lamdu oty ivrit
ASTRO: u wanna learn?
AlyzaCCC: äæéìò = Alyza
AlyzaCCC: Astro, I want to teach, the others want to
learn
ASTRO: theres no hebrew here!
ASTRO: whats a prob....
Arlene: well, then a lot of cutting and pasting then,
one moment please
AlyzaCCC: yes, there is, Astro, just use a Hebrew font
AlyzaCCC: no problem, Arlene, I expect a wait
Greg3: Well, while you're c&P, you said "I am here
because (for) I am a Student (F) in the class of
Alyza (in Alyza's class)
AlyzaCCC: sure, Greg, we have the vocab for that
Greg3: That's what Arlene wrote in transliteration
AlyzaCCC: Greg, why don't you do that sentance for us
:-)
Greg3: I'll do a different one since that's what
Arlene is C&Ping
AlyzaCCC: oh?
Arlene: .äæéìò ìù äúëá äãéîìú éðà éë äô éðà
AlyzaCCC: I thought Arlene was working on a different
sentance.
Arlene: wow, that's takes a little while
Greg3: OK - do you want me to do something else?
AlyzaCCC: Greg, what did Arlene just say
AlyzaCCC: ?
AlyzaCCC: Greg, say something to Arlene
AlyzaCCC: in Hebrew
Greg3: OK - just a sec
Greg3: while I cut and paste
AlyzaCCC: no problem
Greg3: ?éìù ïâá äô äúà

Greg3: Lo, Ani b'chedar - No, I am in the room

her a question

AlyzaCCC: much better, thanks Arlene
AlyzaCCC: indeed :-)
Ruth: Am I supposed to answer or translate? or both?
Arlene: go for it
AlyzaCCC: Ruth, could you please translate it, and
then answer it
Ruth: ok
Ruth: Who is the teacher of mine?
AlyzaCCC: right!
Arlene: in french qui is who, which is probably what
throws me off
AlyzaCCC: ah
Arlene: or Who is my teacher?
AlyzaCCC: I understand, it is the language data base
thing, all foreign languages seem to blend together
Ruth: éìù äøåîä äæéìò
AlyzaCCC: right, Arlene. Ruth's translation is
literal, yours is what one would expect if that
question was being translated for a book
AlyzaCCC: tov maod!
AlyzaCCC: Greg, what did she say?
Greg3: Alyza is my teacher
AlyzaCCC: right
AlyzaCCC: Ruth, please ask Greg a question
Ruth: ok
AlyzaCCC: Ruth is about to ask Greg a question in
Hebrew
Arlene: Another way of answering the question could
be: .ïéìøà ìù äøåîä äæéìò
AlyzaCCC: right, Arlene
Ruth: ?äúëä ìù íéãéîìúä éî
AlyzaCCC: Geg, what did Ruth ask you?
AlyzaCCC: Greg
AlyzaCCC: I mean
AlyzaCCC: oy
Ruth: Arlene, is that your name in Hebrew?
Arlene: no one moment I will write it in hebrew
Greg3: Mee hatalmeedim shel hakeytah? WHo are the
students of the class?
AlyzaCCC: äîçð ìãééà
Arlene: you have it!
AlyzaCCC: yep, I have a list of Hebrew names in a text
file
Arlene: Aidel is actually Yiddish and Nechamah is
hebrew
Arlene: saved me a cut and paste job
AlyzaCCC: which explains why I did not know what the
first one was
Ruth: What is this? äîçð ìãééà
Arlene: my name.
AlyzaCCC: it is Arlene's name
Arlene: the other was Arlene using hebrew letters
Ruth: OH!
Arlene: "Arlene"
AlyzaCCC: Greg, tov maod
AlyzaCCC: could you answer her in Hebrew
AlyzaCCC: hold on, I will give you the name list
AlyzaCCC: off course, you need to add "I" for yourself
Greg3: ok - hold on
* Arlene is holding on :)
Greg3: åðçðà
AlyzaCCC: rega = moment (rega rega means just a moment
idiomatically)
Greg3: oops
Greg3: wait
Greg3: c&p is misbehaving
Greg3: åðçðà
Greg3: sorry
AlyzaCCC: it happens, try again
Greg3: äúëá íéãéîìúä åðçðà
AlyzaCCC: tov
AlyzaCCC: you could also have pasted Arlene and Ruth's
names, followed by v'ani
Ruth: v'ani?
AlyzaCCC: and would have been equally correct
AlyzaCCC: and I
Greg3: Could have, but WAY TOO LAZY for that much c&P
;-)
AlyzaCCC: I
AlyzaCCC: lol
Ruth: lol
AlyzaCCC: okay, brrrriinnnnngggg
AlyzaCCC: class dismiessed
Arlene: class is over?
Greg3: dismiessed? Is that an Ohio Hebrew accent? ;-)
AlyzaCCC: I will try to have the new vocab on the web
site under lesson 4 by tomorrow, but no guarentees,
as the upload is not working
AlyzaCCC: that is a typo, Greg, yet another in a long
series of them
Greg3: Alyza - I was making a FUNNY :-) SMILE :-)
AlyzaCCC: I will also put up last Sunday's and today's
log, and everyone will know the answer to the
homework then (as my time permists)
AlyzaCCC: Shalom all, hope to see you at the quiz in
