  2. We will use THIS sample to ask/answer questions, use for an example, or you can post your own. I'd be happy to analyze parts of this excerpt for conversational skills, the semantic phases or form (equative, transitive and intransitive as well as grammatical morphemes). You'll need to ask me questions to let me know what you still want/need information regarding.
