Armenian in Watertown and Cambridge

Marash Girl learned to read and write Armenian during her studies at college during her first year in Cambridge, Massachusetts . . . although she had heard Armenian spoken, heard Armenian sung, and seen the Armenian letters in print all of her life. While she was studying Armenian in college, she had the opportunity to practice reading and singing Armenian in Watertown at church every Sunday morning, singing from the hymnal SPIRITUAL HYMNS OF WORSHIP, compiled and translated into Armenian and Turkish (in Armenian letters) by E. E. Elmajian. (See Marash Girl, November 19, 2017.) . . . a joyous confirmation of the Armenian she was learning in college.
