Hurrian

Post by dhok »

I'm going to be getting F. Bush's grammar of Hurrian in a few weeks. Who'd be interested? I won't be posting lessons, just, you know, a sort of CliffsNotes for the grammar.

I would!

i haven't seen hide nor hair of Hurrian for five or six years now. (and half of that Hurrian back then, was probably actually Hittite)

I got the Speiser grammar of Hurrian from interlibrary loan a while back, but due to an email confusion I wasn't told it was in until just a couple days before it was due back again. So I didn't get much out of it. But.. F. Bush? Grammar of Hurrian? Is that a new one or something?

DO IT.
I did have a bizarrely similar (to the original poster's) accident about four years ago, in which I slipped over a cookie and somehow twisted my ankle so far that it broke
What kind of cookie?

Hurry, Jan!

I never really payed attention to the Hurrian and Hittite languages, but this sounds too good to pass up...

I'm trying, I'm trying. But I had a little accident where I got lost a couple days ago and had to spend cash.
I'll be at the library that has it this weekend; I'll try and post notes.
