Wherever you are, Scotty, don't forget to beam us up...

I never knew him by his real name - to me, he'll always be Scotty.

1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the next 3 sentences on your blog along with these instructions.
5. Don’t you dare dig for that “cool” or “intellectual” book in your
closet! I know you were thinking about it! Just pick up whatever is
closest.

So ok, here it is:

Sentence 1: The accusative case (same as the genitive) with the ending -n is also used as an object case when a) the object is defined or limited in number: Juon oluen - I drink one beer; or b) the action is in the future with an intention to complete it: Luen kirjat - I'll read the book; Ostan kartan - I'll buy a map.

Sentence 2: There is more about the object in Unit 8.

Sentence 3: Other accusative forms are the singular nominative and the plural nominative with the ending -t: Luen kirjat - I read the books; Lue kirja - Read the book.

That should have been about 10 sentences, but I used "creative grammar" to be able to complete the section...
