If you read German really well, please send me a PM.

I'm reading some German philosophy and can use some help.

Thanks

Out of curiosity, which Philosophers' works are you reading?

Lots - Nietzsche mainly. But I can read him without trouble in German.

I think that I'll need some assistance reading a few scholarly articles on John Eck - 16th century humanist stuff.

Further curiosity!-
How many languages can you read?

I've been trained in Spanish, Latin, French, German, Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek.

I can read all of them fairly well in short spurts - like a few paragraphs, I'm most fluent in Spanish and French. I need a dictionary and a grammar to translate everything else, so I'm slow but I can do it.
