| | *Professor Tari walks around the dimly lit classroom and is not satisfied with what she sees. With a few waves of her wand, candles filled the shelves, and all the desks were arranged in groups of four. 'Much better,' she thinks to herself while as she walks towards the front of the room.
She sits down on the stool next to her desk and patiently waits for her students to arrive.* |

| She smiled slightly. "I find it interesting that it has the same number of letters as the english alphabet as well as the fact that it lines up so well with it. I was half expecting some to be combinations of letters similar to Spanish or Chinese."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Siobhan Garrett Graduated | We'll get into translating names and places next lesson. There's a specific way to do that.
I think we've covered enough for one lesson, today. For homework, worth 5 house points, find the meaning of your name and owl (pm) it to me by Friday.

| Laughs quietly. "You're name would be ApenSwendaHelmaLemaIlyanElya = Ashlie. I'm assuming that C would also take place of the K which would make mine ApenCantaApenRasIlyan = Akari." She smiled again. "Quite a mouthful. Professor if I may ask, what exactly are runes used for?"

"Why would we study Spanish?" asks Ashlie. "not thet I'd mind, it's my frist languaje "
"Well, Akari, all languajes from Latin origins have more or less the same letters -or alike, maybe with a different pronunciation- So that letters would be alike Spanish ones..." Ponders "However spanish doesn't have the 'nd'... we have 'ny/ee' = ñ but nothing else... And the pronunciation should be completely different."
"So, umh, professor, which are the origins of these particular runes then?" *raising hand*
ooc: ow, I wanted to learn real Latin *pout* I've always been curious about dead languajes of the sort

| She nodded slightly, already knowing most of that before looking back at the Professor. "Could you explain the homework. I'm afraid I don't understand. What our name means from any source or a specific one."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Siobhan Garrett Graduated | ooc: You can find the meaning of your name by going to a place like babynames.com and typing in your name.
For example, the name Sara has the meaning princess.
