I seem to spend half my life kicking against the pricks – and there seems to be a fair few of 'em out there.  If it isn't "English" Heritage, it's the National Distrust and Natural "England", and so on.

Another one who won't go away is our old friend (fiend?) Steven Allen Reeves, who now has a "Marhak Moron' section on his puerile blog – and, yes, the nasty little monkey is still featuring the dead horse.  What I find most telling is who he favours, and who he doesn't.

That's interesting – I didn't write 'monkey', but that's what came up.

Whereas what I find most telling is marhak's blatant use of 'guilt by association' – a cheap and underhand means of casting aspersion. 

But totally fallacious nevertheless. 

He clearly missed his vocation as a pull-the-wool-over-your-eyes politician.  He'd have been about as good at it as the rest of them!  Wink

What a very interesting response!  "If the cap fits" springs to mind – he certainly thinks that it does fit.  I made no mention of "Pieter Charles".  Not one.  In any case, just how can one "cast aspersions" upon someone who is anonymous?  Aspersions only affect those who can be identified – like the aspersions he casts upon me.  Either give it up, "Pieter", or identify yourself.  You can't have it both ways.

Actually 'Cornish for Beginners' published by the CLB, covers the same material as 'Skeul an Tavas', but in a much better format for children. Language ladders aside.

It is in KK, but any chimp can convert to the SWF (Modern or Ancient forms.)

You are an idiot goky.
KK's phonology hypothetically reconstructs the oldest form of middle cornish and so deserves the epithet ancient, not the later forms. And the SWF is very new so cannot be called ancient, the same applies to KS.

I thought you were banned anyway you little shit stirring fascist.

"Cornish for Beginners" was written by Peter Pool, in Unified Cornish, and published by the Language Board.  As author, the copyright remains with Peter and his beneficiaries.  Peter, who loathed KK as much as I do, would never have given his permission for his book to be translated into KK, nor would Audrey.  So, how come the book is in KK?

'Cornish for Beginners' in KK? If so, then it sounds like someone need suing for breach of copyright. Certainly, everything I've ever heard about the late Peter Pool, or read in his writings, corroborates what Marhak asserts.

Perhaps the whole publishing record of the KKesva needs scrutinising, to make sure that they haven't –inadvertently, perhaps– broken the law in this regard.

 After all, another late author who despised KK (yet who has many of his works in print in KK) is Myghan Palmer. Surely, the KKesva will have written and witnessed consent from either him or the executors of his estate for what they've done to his creations.


Surely. Yes?
