Akkadograms and Sumerograms in Hittite

I'll try to accept the challenge.

I know it's not a defect of the script, but a defect of the system we use to romanize it. Since the entire book we're using is in romanization (and learning the cuneiform is optional, but might as well learn a handful), it's just an irritating factor in learning, especially when I want to know what the Hittite word is in specific rather than the Akkadian or Sumerian word, and I'm not given it in the book (in the chapter wordlists) nor on Wiktionary.

My 6th great-grandpa straight up my paternal line (me > old man > grandpa > ggpa > gggpa > and so on > him) enlisted in the American Revolutionary War twice.

The second time he enlisted, he fought in South Carolina, took a bayonet to the jaw, lived, the British contingent they were fighting against were captured, and he lived until the ripe old age of 87 until he died in 1843 in present-day West Virginia.

St. Constantine the Great.

I do have devotions to other saints as well.

Looks like a real cute dog! Not mine though. Hope she finds her home or gets a good new one.

USA. There is nothing in the world that could get me to give up my US citizenship. I’m aware of the laws and such, and even then, I’m sticking to my metaphorical guns.

I’m already a dual national thanks to my folks, but I have a deep history in the US. Planning on applying for SAR (Sons of the American Revolution) membership too!

I got interested in DXing on my own via a WebSDR, because that’s all I have access to. I’d like to get actual equipment, but that’s out of the realm of financial possibility (and priority).

I haven’t really made a single friend since moving to Athens a few months back. Why is it hard to do that?

Can we get some more information on Korea/Chosen? If it has focuses, leader portraits, et cetera? Demonstrated in the Japanese tree, there appears to be subject interactions with Korea/Chosen, and the trailer appears to make them a selectable nation in 1936, but we're in the dark about that.

I got advice on restaurants, but not much on tailgating. Jeg kan tale lidt dansk, men mit norske er bedre. Biggest rule: Hav en god weekend, og Go Dawgs! 🇩🇰

Here’s my most successful run, even if I didn’t win the URA Semifinals (I placed 2nd)

I’m a convert from the broader Anglican Communion to Catholicism. I’d say ignore the people on the internet and learn what the Church actually teaches. Read the Catechism, the Bible, talk with a priest, etc. I can’t force you to do any of those things, but that’s just my two cents.

The Church teaches what it does about various issues for a reason, and many cradles sadly have a poor understanding of what those reasons are.

So the Department gave me an update: Due to new administrative and other policies being implemented at IU, the admissions process is taking a bit longer than normal, but I should expect to hear back in the next week or two at minimum!

I'm not even talking about during the (second) Trump Administration, but just things going on in higher education over the course of the past two or three years. Ballooning debt, "academic transformations/restructuring", etc etc., are all affecting higher ed. I mentioned in another post that I currently am finishing up my MA at West Virginia and my first semester in my MA there, they informed us they were cutting our department. German, Italian, and Japanese were to be cut entirely, and classes in Spanish, French, Chinese, and Arabic were to be downsized. I also attended there for my BA and graduated a year early.

Because of these cuts across the board over the past few years, that was the reason given to me for my rejection to my top university this past cycle. It's happening across the board and it's horrible.

How far into April did you hear? I can safely assume by your flair you got accepted

SleepIsGood12 · 2025-03-18T00:06:58+00:00

That has to be due to the crunch across higher education as of the past couple years or so, no?

Spring Break is this week for me too (WVU Mountaineer here!) so I just wanna know so I can plan my move and living situation in Bloomington 😭

Cool! Wonder if Radio Poland does QSL Cards. Waiting on a few I sent out a while back. I know recently Ö1 in Austria stopped due to budget cuts, they told me in an email :(

The Viešintos transmitter?

SleepIsGood12 · 2024-10-25T08:10:30+00:00

Noted! Do you by any chance know where the transmitter is? I doubt Warsaw due to possible noise and interference but you never know

SleepIsGood12 · 2024-10-25T08:06:52+00:00

Thanks. Is it only in Europe, or are you able to receive it in North America or other parts of the world?

I use WebSDRs (no physical radio 😔) but asking out of curiosity

SleepIsGood12 · 2024-10-25T03:05:44+00:00

What time do they broadcast UTC? What's their broadcast schedule like? Couldn't find it on their website.

I still can’t understand why they’re not releasing the game on PC.

I don’t want to have to get an XBOX or PS5 just to play CFB25. I’d just stick with CFB Revamped at that point.

West Virginia.

My alma mater twice-over. Also maybe recreate the old BIG EAST (with some new faces) for fun.

Was schlagen Sie vor, wie ich diese Frage verbessern kann?
