This was a very busy week for me, hardly got time to read 100 or so pages. Still reading Grave Peril by Jim Butcher. Book 3 of The Dresden Files.

What about all of you, what have you been reading?

Two Tamil books in one week!

Languages change over time, and any language that has survived for so long would have gone with many evolution.

Yeah reading the book, I can see how the words from then have evolved to words from now, and it's very rewarding when I'm able to understand a verse without any help from the guide.

Yeah, it must be. I sometimes have trouble understanding words of current teenagers, so understanding something from 12th century must definitely be rewarding.
