I have noticed something here. The earthworms are planning an attack to the humans. I can see an earthworm everywhere I look, I can practically see one every three feet. My goodness, I can see them attacking me, slowly slithering their way on the ground, and I have trouble finding a spot where I would not step on them.Really, I don't know if I have a fear of earthworms, but this evening, when I got off the shuttle, I saw an earthworm squished between my feet, and I literally jumped, only to land in another and squish it again.
I am paranoid.
But I see their bodies, that wither and bloat whenever I step on them. It is as if they regurgitate everything that they have inside through the pores of their skin, and they turn inside out.
I don't want to go to sleep tonight. I might see earthworms in my sleep.
hi there :) you wrote a very impressive review of the tagalog language on my blog. its odd to say that tagalog doesnt have tenses. when we can say following:
ReplyDeletekumain siya .. past
kumakain siya .. present
kakain siya .. future
kakainin niya .. future perfect?

ReplyDeleteI am a Belgian in the Philippines trying to learn a bit of your language.
Not so easy... I suppose I am quite stupid. Your work will probably be too difficult for me but I am sure I will be happy if I can understand 1% ! :-)

I don't mind sending my paper, if you don't mind waiting until the end of Fall semester (US time), on December 9. It's still a work in progress...
