I hope you enjoy and are blessed by the episode today. Keep being inspired to write excellent literary masterpieces. Psalm 117 praises the LORD and was a perfect psalm for practicing the Arabic rendering in its Egyptian dialect.

2:23-10:59 (Catalan)

11:05-11:32 (Latin)

13:52-17:31 (Egyptian Arabic)

I used ChatGPT to help me make a phonetic script system to help me replicate the Arabic words with the Egyptian dialect as best as I could. I wanted to challenge myself with this and I was satisfied, but I know it isn’t 100% exact. This is completely my voice in the narration and I tried to make the vocal production as authentic as I could. Additionally I used the New American Standard Bible 1995 edition to narrate Psalm 117 in English.

I narrated a few new original poems from my AllPoetry webpage in English (https://allpoetry.com/Dr.%20Jarrow). Then I narrated assorted poems from Abram J. Ryan and William Cowper. You can check out episodes 10 and 28 respectively for more poems by these two poets. After this, I talk briefly about the benefits of learning two languages at the same time.

In this episode, I talk about some of my ideas for 3 major future literary projects that I would like to complete and accomplish for my writing career. They are:

1. ​A poetry anthology
2. ​A memoir
3. ​A collection of personal essays

I discuss some of the potential challenges that I think I may encounter during the writing process with each of these three unique genres.

In this episode, I narrate a mix of old and new original poems from the AllPoetry website in addition to narrating a few poems from 19th century poet Abram J. Ryan. His poems narrated in this episode were: "Far Away," "Listen," "Wrecked," and "Dreaming." As previously mentioned, some of my poetry has Christian undertones.

This is the third of my bilingual short stories series. I recorded the story in Brazilian Portuguese and English. I hope you enjoy and are inspired by the story.

Narré un cuento corto original en Inglés y Español. Gracias a mi tutor de Español por ayudarme con la traducción. También usé ChatGPT para chequear mi gramática. Gracias por escuchar. Compré un nuevo micrófono...lo siento por la suena 😅.

Este episodio es en Español. Narré poesía en Latín por William Cowper y compartir un poema original en Español al fin del episodio. Hablo mi proceso de escribir poesía así como cincelar mármol or tallar madera. Espero que disfrutes.

[This podcast episode has Christian undertones and I hope the Gospel is shared and accepted by all who listen]. This episode is a tribute to my father, who passed last Monday...I wrote a poem about his legacy. He will never be forgotten and will always be in my heart. I will never forget his life lessons and will always apply them to my life. Enjoy the time you have with loved ones and cherish good memories with them. The separation is only temporary and we will be reunited some day.

I go on a tangent about learning and mastering a new language or multiple languages with an experimental concept I coined as "language collection" or becoming a "language collector." I use several analogies in the episode to better explain my theory on acquiring a few languages and I give some strategies on persevering on your own language collection journey. I also discuss some theological and faith-based topics in tandem with the language learning philosophy of "collecting languages." I hope you enjoy the episode.
