Pravlish Translations Some of the translations on pages 1-3 were discussed; then the students, working together in groups, were encouraged to attempt the first three translations on page 4. Some of these translations were chosen to be particularly difficult to render into Pravlish, and many ingenious solutions were suggested. Eight Night School sessions were arranged (5, 6, 12, 13, 20, 27 July; 3, 10 August 2016). A total of 140 students attended the eight sessions. |
