Sure, but it'll be a while. Egyptian is easily the hardest
language I've ever tackled. One thing I find especially
fascinating is its seemingly illogical constructions. My
conlangs, at least, tend to be extremely logical, and the
natlangs I most like are, too (Arabic, Japanese, Swahili).
It's refreshing and challenging to encounter a language
that does things differently!
