RE: Is There Really an Advantage to Being a Woman on Steemit?

in #steemit7 years ago

I've definitely seen people chewed out for posting too many #introduceyourself articles, or for tag spamming/unoriginal content. I haven't seen much of the hot girl stuff but it's probably because of my NSFW filter.

Yeah, I can! I was a historian specializing in Mesopotamia in my former life (before I decided to come home and change career trajectories), so I studied a couple of ancient languages.

Thank you for stopping by!

OK, I'll bite. Which other ancient language did you study?

I studied Sumerian and Akkadian in grad school, and dabbled in Egyptian for a short time, and Ancient Greek as an undergrad. I know Latin well enough to tutor high school kids in it (so, basically, Cambridge Latin Course Latin... I'm not like an expert in medieval Latin or anything). Sadly, I'm pretty bad at modern languages... would be really cool if I could speak Spanish or something. :/

I once read a rumor that Sumerian and Akkadian are pretty different.
