Hello chums! It's 10 minutes before class because I got out early from my last class, so pleese parhden thu bad spellin and gramur.
Since my time is limited, I'm going to rehash that which was hashed by someone else, nix_bresser, who has hashed the hasher, Lakoff. The post was "remeber when books used to say something?" What a great header. I don't think that the ideas in this book are anything knew. "All I saw happening in the text was the author correlating all of her references to the Whorf hypothesis- for over 40 pages." Right on! Though Whorf is rocks, this book is like many so many others, an ungodly expansion on things we already know. I can take 2 page paper for one class and turn it into a 15 page paper for antoher class. "This reading comes off like a research paper muddled by too many examples." Exactlrty mie poynt.
Sorry I couldn't post more but assignments for thursdays are near impossible unless they are given a week in advance.
