First country is Algeria I can see that while walking
Wait no it's Argentina
It ends with bia so I could just guess countries until I get it but that shouldn't be allowed.

My timezone seems unfair. I'm down to be restricted to only NA waking hours.
This one was fun.
Summary
-
beautiful/ly
-
ro:h means "ripe"
-
a. The good pineapples became beautiful.
kalali? mo:h dʒo
b. The ripe corn has yellowed well.
dʒo milane kwi: ro:h kya -
c. milaro:h kwi: ne
The yellow corn has ripened.
d. li? kalakwa: kwi:
The corn grew beautifully.
Here's my work from notepad. Had to fix a mistake in 4) d. as I was posting this all here.
This is a lot like Fieldwork Linguistics class. They bring in a native speaker of a language no students in the class know, and we have to ask the speaker to say sentences and analyze them to work out a grammar of the language. It's to train you for documenting currently undocumented languages. When I took the class it was on Yoruba. The class was easier than this though because we had basically infinite data. Just ask the native speaker to say whatever we need over and over.

Summary

li:? kaladzo mo:h dzo -- hmm i think this might simply be li:? kaladzo mo:h or kalali(?) mo:h dzo i'm not sure how the question mark would work but it seems necessary for that word
dzo milane kwi:ro:h kya (wrong placing)
the yellow corn has ripened
the corn grew beautifully

Yes that was the correct one for the Greek
Both of you are correct on the Georgian
Will go over the last one shortly
Once these are done and I have posted all the explanations we are moving to the "medium" problem set
Having a blast in this thread thanks guys for participating
You are actually doing them faster than I can keep up (which may change when we get harder ones but tbh sounds like Huber has also been doing this a lot in the past)
And I encourage people who are waking up and seeing problems already done to do the problems anyway - no harm in doing a problem somebody's already solved
But if I’m wrong I’ll look dumb!
Oh wait
You already look dumb for not attempting any of the problems
The true enemy of intellect isn't being wrong it's being lazy. Not even being able to focus the brain for long enough to get a problem done

can't say i agree
it's probably somewhere in the middle
(between displaying your mistakes and not doing anything at all)
mostly both driven by the fear of social repercussions.
You're all midwit r*tards.

I got a kick out of the Yoruba because there's likely some Wittgenstein's Lion going on -- there's no way these Bantu languages aren't getting intellectually colonized.
I think I heard about Trump talking about this one.
Do they call everyone one of the 5,000 pidgins of these moron Amerindian folk languages for NSF funding????
Just a hit a guy on a bike while griefing this thread. Fuck.
