I'd been craving a beer at my favorite bar for days, so when a friend said she'd be up for some french fries and a shirley temple before studying at the coffee shop, I couldn't resist. News flash: total lightweights should not have a drink before trying new vocabulary and writing in a not-entirely-learned script. The effects were even more wobbly than usual. After writing out all the masculine nouns, I browsed the chapter and realized cases were coming. And closed the book. Cases did me in in Latin back in my sophomore year of college, and while I am not going to let them win this time, today was definitely not the day to prove it.
Hic.

Oh, don't let the cases bring you down. It's only two of them in Hindi. After the five or six cases I had to cope with when trying to learn Russian, I find Hindi grammar pretty easy. Right next after English, actually. ;)
Teehee! Any chance of putting up a picture of that wobbly writing? ;)
Slovene has 6 cases too, but I'm still annoyed when I have to learn them in foreign languages ... Probably because English doesn't have any and that was the first foreign language I learnt. But I can deal with 2, I just need more exercise, my book doesn't have enough exercises in it, dammit!
