Comet Newsletter – The Language Edition
Posted at 04:25AM Nov 25, 2007 by CarolB
Okay, hands up who thinks the only foreign phrase you need on the road is 'voulez-vous coucher avec moi'? Then we need to talk. And that's what the latest issue of Comet is all about. The world of language and communication. It can be as simple as a whistle or as complex as a 56,000 character alphabet.
Of course no Comet is complete without our Thorn Tree highlights. There's plenty of chatter about language and communication in the Speaking in Tongues branch.
If you haven't already, check out the latest edition of Comet.

Chow down on the foodie edition of Comet here.
