Ἔνθα δὲ γῆς δνοφερῆς καὶ Ταρτάρου ἠερόεντος
πόντου τ᾽ ἀτρυγέτοιο καὶ οὐρανοῦ ἀστερόεντος
ἑξείης πάντων πηγαὶ καὶ πείρατ᾽ ἔασιν
ἀργαλέ᾽ εὐρώεντα, τά τε στυγέουσι θεοί περ,
χάσμα μέγ᾽, οὐδέ κε πάντα τελεσφόρον εἰς ἐνιαυτὸν 740
οὖδας ἵκοιτ᾽, εἰ πρῶτα πυλέων ἔντοσθε γένοιτο.
[Ἀλλά κεν ἔνθα καὶ ἔνθα φέροι πρὸ θύελλα θυέλλῃ
ἀργαλέη· δεινὸν δὲ καὶ ἀθανάτοισι θεοῖσι
τοῦτο τέρας. Νυκτὸς δ᾽ ἐρεβεννῆς οἰκία δεινὰ
Θεογονία

yoyo, are you speaking abt smtg horrid? why the secrecy of the language? is it even a language?
actually, i AM speaking about something horrid. It's not secret. It's Greek. It's just something (or some place) that I read about that sounded rather beautiful (and horrifying) that I decided to post this here.
And oh no, actually it's a suicide note.
And ah, it's actually hate mail to you. or to many people.
And wait, maybe it's a love letter.
haha.
Isn't this like defeating the whole purpose of learning a Communications degree? It's not communicated if it's not understood leh...
*whistles an innocent tune*
But some of the characters don't show up even if you change the encoding to Greek?
It's something from the Theogony of Hesiod, Greek myth. And turtleshells and Tartarus or something haha. See how bored I am. But hey, I'm a linguistics student, heh.
clever girl :)
i suppose prawns have brains.
It's basically about this place that is worse than hell, and yes,it's Tartarus.
