I started this blog as I was crazy to take the plunge into Indo-Aryan and Semitic languages. The Indo-Aryan includes languages like Pashto, Persian, Hindi, and Urdu, and Semitic languages are Hebrew, Arabic, Amharic, and Tigrinya.
I am currently studying Persian and Arabic at the same time. Yes, I know, I'm totally crazy and I totally agree. These languages, or at least the Arabic script Naskh (نسخ) is hard, as the implicit short-vowels totally threw me off. My mind is starting to absorb them and from this I am gaining inspiration. I think the script is rather beautiful and mystical.
