I am currently surfing through Spanish sites about the Trojan War. Because I don't want to sleep!! This page is so cute. Hehe, "el caballo de Troya." I have no idea why I find that so funny. Because it is late? I like looking at all the different names. Homer = Homero, The Iliad = La Ilíada, The Odyssey = La Odisea, Agamemnon = Agamenón, Mycenae = Micenas, Helen = Helena (or Elena?), Menelaus = Menelao, Hector = Héctor, Andromache = Andrómaca, Achilles = Aquiles, Briseis = Briseida, Paris stays the same. (Don't mind me, I just find this terribly fascinating. XD ) Of course I am not surprised to see all these differences, because in English itself there are like a million ways to spell these names. Next year I will discover how one actually writes them in Greek! Oh it will be so exciting! ^_^

I think it is interesting that this year Spanish seems to be my favourite of the languages I am learning. Because I have learned so much and it has been so interesting!! Last year Japanese was my definite favourite, but I haven't been doing as much as I should be with it lately. In grades nine and ten French was in the lead. Well, I think it's interesting. Probably not good for actually learning, but whatevah.
