Oh, it'd be difficult to enlist all of them.
All those including /th/ sounds[voiced and voiceless]
which don't exist in the Polish language.
And then such as in 'word' , 'world' , which involves
a lot of face pantomime. Let alone the classics like
'tree' , 'three' , 'free'. And the eternal problem - the
proper pronunciation  of  'sheet'/'....' and 'sheep'/'ship'.
A good pen could write a thriller on it [with elements of comedy
and grotesque].

No halves! Each is a complete one.
No, he doesn't. Before getting his PhD he had to pass
a foreign language exam. So we worked on English.
The resulting situation was serious ; ))
Since then I've never tried to teach in the family.

You must be kidding more than it shows!

Very ganerally - yes.

>"What are the characteristics
of a Profound Lover?".<

Loves IN SPITE of all reservations. Is able to feel, sense, about
the loved one before the mind knows it.

There are two kinds of profound lovers:
the one who is capable of loving profoundly even without
being loved himself/herself,
the one who is capable of taking profound love[not so easy!]
and giving his/hers in return[a bit less difficult].

>"What are the traits which for you would mark the true
friend."<

Such a friend usually knows about us more than the profound
lover. And never abuses it. We feel safe with the true friend, even
if he/she can't help us solve our problems.
True friends may become profound lovers, but I can hardly imagine
a transformation the other way round.

>Thanks for not calling SPCAA. Or our own Maneka ji.<

No idea what these are. Any hints?

>What does san mean in your Latin nickname?< [about Husain]

"Les Yeux Sans Visage." is French and 'sans' means 'without'.
'Eyes Without the Face'. That reminds me of 'Big Brother is watching you'
[sorry for this assocciation, nothing wrong meant]

>ANNA: are you into greek mythology?<

I used to read it a lot of it in my school years and still remember some.
Besides, mythological motifs are used by almost all writers, in one way or
another,
so whatever you read you just can't avoid them.
No literature class[at least western literature] can proceed without
references
to Greek and Roman mythology.

>I just love that. DO POST MORE FROM THAT.<

I'll try later. But there certainly are some useful sites. Harshal? Netgeek?
[by the way, where is Netgeek?]

Bye,

Anna.
