> later you comment on my use of joy, I accept what you say but Joy
was in my book and  liked it


Which book?  Look forward to hearing more.  I've found meanings
like "honour, respect; honours, gifts indicating respect; [worthy]
compensation."


I copied up the wrong word, I promise as a punishment to not use any sugar in my coffee tomorrow or go sit in the shed
Your Comments on my "Ill-Given" were very acceptable, especially "Salust was ill geuen by nature, and made worse by bringing up"  I know a few indeed that way
 
my comment on "The Class thing" was made half in earnest and half in Jest, because there are people like that still living in the world because murder is still illegal.
 
I would ask one more question LN, before you retreat into your Gold Canopied Lamasery,
Tentatively suggested, is it permitted to actually enjoy learning a "difficult" new language,
"Because I can",, I get comments like "Why are you studying, you are retired now, you should be taking it easy watching TV knitting etc"
Well watch  TV - I do but rarely such programs that afford me a darned good laugh the comedians in "This week in Westminster".
I get actual pleasure out of studying, give me a translation and I do my best  and if the comments be severe I accept and try again, but I have to "get my Fix for the Week"
I wish to get some sort of Validation from our Friends on this, anyone can answer,
Is Study Addictive
Goodnight now
Patricia
I am unsure that I shall ever understand anyone that does not enjoy study and some first class reading
