So far, I've got down my stuff on basic grammar, Personal Pronouns and basic verbs. I'll probably put in some stuff on adjectives and call it good. should be done soon, I reckon.

I'm technically a native speaker, but my Vietnamese is a bit... less than perfect than it should be. I dunno if I'll have the time or energy to do lessons, but are you interested in doing it in a certain format?

:: shrugs :: I don't know, probably something starting with useless, though amusing sentences so I can learn grammar and stuff.

I have to agree on that. It's a horrendous orthography, in my opinion.


Anyhow, I suppose I can teach some of the real basics of the language in some posts soon. I doubt I'll be able to effectively teach some of the slightly more advanced stuff, since a lot of my Vietnamese has been partially bastardized by my English, so it's still hard to distinguish when I'm unconsciously throwing in English grammar structures or not (not to mention that both are relatively isolating languages anyways), but I'll try my best.

Aŋpétu wašté!

(or I'll just say hello! [:D] )

I can't seem to find anything else, besides Wikipedia, that explains Morphology. I have learned some things about it, when I could understand wikipedia, but I know there's a lot more I need to know. So I was wondering if I may ask for a lesson or guide on Morphology? [xD]

Isn't Lakota the language used in Nightwish Creek Mary's Blood song?

I want so just say, first of all, thank you for your patience. Secondly, while the lessons are finished, I'm currently out of town visiting relatives, and my lesson is on my comp at home, and I won't be back for about a week. Sorry for the inconvenience, but at least I can definitely say, expect the lesson posted by about next wednesday. Okay, thanks.

They're like the best band eveeer! Just kidding. It's Nightwish, a power-gothic-symphonic-what-not Finnish metal band. And my favourite one. [:D]
Did you like it?

I see! Thanks. I looked up "symphonic gothic metal" and "symphonic power metal" on Wikipedia.
