II.Translation of the Comparative Grammar of the Semetic languages by Sabatino Moscati,which has some compliment articles published in recent years. III.Translation of the Akkadian influences on Aramaic by Stephen A.Kaufman,which has some compliment articles published in recent years(I am working on it). B.My second trilogy based on ancient languages(Aramaic and Akkadian languages): I.Din in Qoran. II.Islam in Qoran. III.Kophre(irreligion)in Qoran.

Correct me if I am mistaken, but I understand that the original languages of the bible were primarily Aramaic and Greek and not Hebrew and Greek as this site states. The old testament was writen primarily in Aramaic with some Hebrew but nertheless more Aramaic and the new testaments were writen primarily in Greek with some Aramaic. I saw this site by chance.

I do hope you get the opportunity to formally study Greek (and Hebrew), but if not, you can always start to study the languages on your own. And you've got a great perspective... you don't have to learn everything now! You can save some things for later in your life. Who knows, you may have more time to savor it later. hi SarahJane… nice to have a kindred spirit about the languages.

The point of my comment, though, is to say that I am now excited about the fact that you are learning Greek. I often feel like I'll never have time to do that, since I don't have room in my schedule to take those classes, but I forget that I have many years ahead of me. Thanks for the encouragement and inspiration. I, too, have a passion and love of languages. Your post really struck a chord with me!
