Okay people, I'm back.
Word.
So I'll begin with my IS topic. Because that's really the most I've done.
In Russian, (almost) every verb has both a transitive and intransitive form. In English almost no verbs have this formation, but the word "fucking" does. If I say, "They are fucking," it could mean either that they are currently fucking, or that they are fucking in general. I will disect the linguistic situation and the ramifications in language between these two systems. At the same time I will deconstruct the notion of studying a mouthful of profanity in an academic setting. Should at least be interesting.
Uh...right.
Bye.
