@lostin: yea once i got used to the language i was cruising right along... it just took some patience
|
Merry Christmas, Barftastic!
Ahh, okay, Xurxo. :) Thanks. Wasn't there some Celtic influence on Galicia, though? |
"Bo Nadal" (Merry Christmas in Galician! I looked it up!)
|
Yes it did have some.
But it is near Portugal and is more associated with that instead :3 |
The Nanny's on <33
xmas is good<3 |
Merry Christmas, that's merry Christmas in English, I looked it up :yes:
|
That was really interesting, Xur.
I had been thinking that it was Chinese-related...just because I knew a Xui, that was pronounced Shoe. |
Okay, cool, Xurxo. Sorry about that. (Ahh, linguistics, so confusing...)
|
I love to learn new things....and now I can say that I learned something new today!
|
I love the Gaelic (Irish/Scottish) languages...
|
I'd love to learn Irish one day, but I really don't have the discipline for languages. The ear, yes, but the memorization is awful.
|
I love languages. :333 I only looked about Galician because of the character's name :33
:33 I like Slavic Languages. And also want to learn Turkish. I want to relearn French and Spanish xDD;; I tried Japanese? С Рождеством Христовым <--Merry Christmas |
me too! and plus, courses in gaelic are extremely difficult to find in most countries. there are online courses, sure, but i need a teacher when it comes to languages.
|
I was learning German from year four to six, I was quite terrible but, well I tried.
|
I want to learn German, too. And Italian.
I HEAR Italian lots. And heard it lots. And some German. As I'm half German. xD But my family pays more attention to the Italian side. |
The other thing about Gaelic languages is the spelling. It's really not intuitive. With French (which I've studies), Spanish, and I suppose German, the systems make sense, but with Irish, the spelling is a serious obstacle.
|
I don't do well with languages at all.
I tried german in college, but it didn't stick. I would like to learn Spanish. |
I just remembered the time my German teacher swore at fly in German while we were decorating gingerbread cookies and my friend stuffed up and and shouted "darn it!" and my teacher said "no nasty swearing!" XD
|
@cica: yeah, its pretty insane. all those extra G's and H's thrown in everywhere. lol
|
@Lostin: Yep! It's scary. In some ways, more scary than the idea of learning a whole new alphabet in order to learn Russian. (But not scarier than the Japanese writing system. I'm leaving that one alone.) There are so many languages I want to learn that I never will. XD
|
German is so gutteral.
Spanish seems more lyrical. |
*sigh* then there are those people who make ya sooo jealous cuz they speak like 8 languages.... and with ease.... meh. Tolkien people.... hahaha
|
Yikes. I should go take my shower. I'll be back! (Want to see the EI!)
|
See you soon Ciccy! (there, ya gots a nick name.)
