those roots

You know how I was saying that Arabic is magical and interesting, etc.? Here's an example of how it's lovely when you start making connections: I realized, today during my lunch break, trying to meet the meager summertime study goals I've set for myself, that the verb "to read" is related to the word "Q'uran." The same root letters- I think the Q, the R, the A. How had I never noticed it before?

It's lovely to me, anyway.
