Re: Foreign Languages
Well I'm fluent in Spanish (My whole family is from Bolivia), but the sadest thing is when I took Spanish in high school I got a C. Try explaining that to your parents while speaking spanish to them, lol.
I used to get high on life until I realized it was cut with morons..

Re: Foreign Languages
ok i take 3 languages: Japanese , Italian and French so it is pretty hard to distinguish everything. I get the different verbs mixed up and crap.

All I am
Nothing you are"

Re: Foreign Languages
Awesome! I am going to be picking up Spanish next year too (I think), so I will be so confused! My goal is to be fluent in all the major European languages (well... French, German, Spanish, Italian and British) by the time I am 30Originally posted by etoiledefootball@Jan 24 2003, 07:51 AM

Re: Foreign Languages
What!? I think German is a very easy language to learn. Of the 3 I know, I would have to say that German was the easiest. Ancient Greek... way different alphabet *shudder*, and French, what's with the pronunciation!? Yeah it's sexy and all, but honestly, the conjugations change so much and you can have something like chatEAUX pronounced chat-o. What's up with that!? German I think is very easy... but then again... I may have a natural aptitude for it...Originally posted by rastask8chick@Jan 26 2003, 08:44 PM

Re: Foreign Languages
french accent = EASY...german accent = HARD!! man how do you spit those words out?? and i can't say FIVE funf or whatever....we spent a whole class trying to teach me how to pronounce it! man...lol the pronounciation is so hard! lol
When I hear somebody sigh that Life is hard, I am always tempted to ask, Compared to what?
If we did the things we are capable of, we would astound ourselves.
Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.
You see things; and you say Why? But I dream things that never were; and I say Why not?
It is a hard matter, my fellow citizens, to argue with the belly, since it has no ears.

Re: Foreign Languages
Rasta-- yeah, I may have natural aptitude Thanks!
xxwhereisfredxx-- I think that french is harder because you forget about letters. Like what happened to the x in faux? Or the p in Champs? Or the eew in jujitsu? Or the suk in leiposuction, and the ism in this is all just a defense mechanism? Ok sorry I have Not Another Teen Movie on the brain. But honestly, with a few simple exceptions (the ie and ei for example... ei=i; ie=e) you pronounce every letter in German. That to me is easier than s'il vous pla?t looking like "S-ill vooze (rhymes with booze) plate" and pronounced like "See voo play"
MetalBassGirl-- Come on, at least if you are learning French or Germany you're still on the same alphabet!

Re: Foreign Languages
I took Spanish last year in eighth grade (they offered it for 'advanced' English students.) I hated it, I can't do the whole grammar thing and we learned it a week before final exams. My teacher sucked. So yeah, I don't like Spanish.
Next year I'm gonna take German 1 and 2, they have the same language structure as us and German is probably the other language I'd ever need... French seems like it'd be too hard, all the pronunciations are messed. I think all they offer at our school is German, French, and Spanish. Otherwise I'd take Latin.

Re: Foreign Languages
haha ppl dont worry bout how hard it is! it comes easy for others, and not so easy for others. the most important thing oyu keep in mind is, to try your HARDEST and as long as you do that, you should feel that you accomplished something and have overcame an obstacle that might have been hard at first!

Re: Foreign Languages
Rasta I will agree with you there. Some people have a natural aptitude for a language, just like someone might be really good at math!

Re: Foreign Languages
Let's see if I can get the real greek charechters...
balle eis korakas
Scheisse... I can't get the real Greek... unless... does anyone know where the Charechter map is on Window XP pro? Cuz I sure don't!
It's been a while since I've taken greek... but I believe it's
beta/alpha/lamda/lamda/sigma? epsilon/iota/sigma? kappa/omicron/rho/alpha/kappa/alpha/sigma?
Sigmas are the ones that either look like o with a tail or an s right? Depending on where they are in the word?
If I can find the charechter map I will give you the Greek charechters
