Nephila 02-05-2013 10:02 AM

Oh? Are you using a English to something translator?

xuvrette 02-05-2013 01:08 PM

dessertdesiert 02-05-2013 02:48 PM

Poor Xuv not knowing slang xD

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 02:52 PM

but we can't fault her, there really is a lot of slang everywhere nowadays, it's hard to keep up [sweat]

xuvrette 02-05-2013 03:07 PM

LOL. I am sure being a trilingual is more awesome than knowing slangs.

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 03:09 PM

being trilingual is great :)

I'm bilingual but i can understand and read a third language, i just suck at speaking it xD

xuvrette 02-05-2013 03:16 PM

heh, I am beginner in another language too. XD basic grammar, structure and vocabulary is okay, but not for more complex things. Enough to listen to anime and read manga, but not novels or newspaper.

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 03:20 PM

i kinda want to learn a fourth language, but i'm at that age where i just don't want to do anything anymore, haha. I'll have to see howthis semester goes and if I'm still up for it, i migt just take classes next semester.

xuvrette 02-05-2013 03:33 PM

Goodie good.
I love learning languages.

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 03:36 PM

haha they are interesting to learn, its just when it gets down to conjugations and the grammar suff that it gets difficult for me [sweat]

xuvrette 02-05-2013 03:44 PM

SAME! I hate the grammar part. XD
I still don't know why English have this past and present tense.

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 03:47 PM

What's your first language?

xuvrette 02-05-2013 03:51 PM

hmm... most use is Chinese, first learn is English. 8D

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 03:54 PM

ohh, my first language was cantonese, haha, but I know english better at this point. My spanish is mediocre xD

xuvrette 02-05-2013 03:56 PM

HUH! Cantonese? You Hong Kee?
I can speak Cantonese too~ Thanks to Hong Kong Drama. and my grandma. XD

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 05:16 PM

Haha, my parents are from Malaysia so it was always the language we spoke at home before I started school. Now I speak a mixture of Chinese and English when I speak with them though I'm trying to limit the English I use because I don't want to end up like my brother who can't speak Chinese anymore and he's younger than me.

You'd think with all the dramas/animes I watch I'd have picked up some on Korean/Japanese language. I think I can recognize phrases now but I think the best time was sometimes during my junior high school years when I could actually watch anime RAW and understand it, now I need subs again [sweat] but yea, dramas are good for helping to learn languages even if it doesn't seem it.

xuvrette 02-05-2013 05:27 PM

What a place your parents come from... which mean they are not there anymore?
You chinese too? <33

I learn Japanese through self learn, taking classes and often listen to the REAL Japanese anime with subtitles of course. XD lol. As of now, I can speak and write fairly simple sentences. Not wide enough vocabulary though.
Knowing chinese had its perks, I might not know how to pronounce in Japanese, but the meaning of kanji is 90% similar to Chinese.

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 08:58 PM

No they aren't. We live in the United States :)

I am a Chinese-American I think it's called? haha. It's been a while since I've actually done anything other than speak and hear it, so i can't remember how to read or write it anymore sadly. I can read the most basic characters only [sweat]

dessertdesiert 02-05-2013 09:25 PM

I want to learn another language when I am out of college xD

Aoi Kazuya 02-05-2013 09:57 PM

good luck then dessert :) it's definitely worth learning another since most people seem to speak at least two languages nowadays ^^

dessertdesiert 02-06-2013 12:04 AM

Yeah, I don't have time right now... it's not like I even have time to relax as much as i want.

xuvrette 02-06-2013 03:53 AM

...Out of college only then learn another language?
Why not learn at the same time?
