I just had a lesson about that today. It does make you think. I kind of like the name FYROM actually :). Sounds heavy.
Yes, the Greeks are afraid that Macedonians will make claims against the Greek territory known as Macedonia if their country bears the same name.

Ironic that the biggest focking thieves are worried about someone stealing from them :D

I hereby announce, as Princups Senatus, that Seven will be appointed to the Senate of the Imperial Roman Empire. He will take a subordinate role to my horse, Incitatus.

S.P.Q.R.

:D.

I'll always remember the bust up I had with my Greek teacher last year.
First I stated that Socrates was using the very same methods as his opponents (which is true, but she couldn't deal with it apparently) and then I went on to say Demosthenes was one boring motherfvcker. She didn't take it very well.

Wow. What did your groupies say?

I'm also wondering about why the Greeks are afraid to begin with. It doesn't seem very logical to me, since the people who live in the Greek territory known as Macedonia aren't very keen on being part of FYROM.

I was thinking about aorist in fact.
Aorist does exist in modern day languages though. It's referred to as "perfectum" nowadays. But the Ancient Greek perfectum is a tense we don't know anymore.

Asking for a Ban? That is dumb. You better go home, you're getting dumber than I am getting.
Pado, I was always dumber than you were getting. You do not have that Juve plate on the back of your Benz for nothing, you know.

Ancient Greek? It's great imo and far more challenging than Latin (especially for an Italian).

It even has tenses that don't exist.

iechyd da = ?

It may be more challenging, but in my mind is hoirrible.... Allways loved latin at school, uni and in church

A wonderful language imo


Iechyd da means cheers or more correctly good health

Well it's been a while.
It's a very rich language to say the least and much more evolved than Latin IMO. Latin's for farmers and is good for economical use. Roman philosophers never got to equal their Greek counterparts and Latin poetry simply isn't that great. Especially "Carpe diem" is worthless :).

Caligula said he re-thought the notion. Since he was told he is not capable of being ashamed, he decided what the feck.
I think Caligula and Centrocampista should exchange MSN addresses, they might get along pretty much.
