lol

well i have dyslexia and adhd, so I find English difficult, let alone trying to learn other languages :P

Purifier: (13. Dez 2007 13:08)

I have to look what dyslexia is :lol: never hear about that.
But i can speak and write only 2 languages. German and english. And i believe thats enough to talk 70% on the world :lol:

mpir: (13. Dez 2007 13:38)

NOOOOOOOT. :lol:
Learn Chinese and Hindi and then you are up to 30% of worlds population.
English and German together would cover maybe about 15-20%. But that is not so bad too. :wink:

Chinese isnt a language tho, u'd have to learn the major ones, Cantanese & Madarin, and then several thousand dialects lol

French and Spanish are spoken by more people than English, although English is considered the International Language (coz we will rule the world again one day! mwahaha)

mpir: (13. Dez 2007 14:09)

Mwahahahahaha... NOT. :D

I think the only reason English is considered International language... well... nobody said it is... just that a lot of people like to think about it that way. :wink: As I was saying the only reason it is so wide spread is because it is SOOOOO simple. I´d say language for dumb. :D Only Esperanto is easier to learn. :wink:

English is simple lol.. where did u get that from..

I´m native Slovene speaker and I learned English as a second language, also Italian, French, Slovak, had 4 years of Latin in high school, and I studied Arabic for 2 years. English is a piece of cake, walk in the park, taking candy from a child. :lol: I don´t mean it as an insult, it´s just simple that´s all. No verb conjugation - only sufixes. No conjuagtion of nouns or adjectives. Nouns are not devided into several genders... and I could go on and on. :twisted:

miszt: (13. Dez 2007 14:37)

English is certainly NOT simple!

Its easy enough to learn the words, but we have complex grammer, and even more complex ways of using words that seemingly have no relevance to their 'official' meaning

Que confusion every time I say to an Italian that 'I feel like Pizza' lol

mpir: (13. Dez 2007 14:51)

In Slovenian language every adjactive has 54 different forms. That is when you conjugate (I think conjugate is used only for verbs - don´t know proper english word for it) it you can ad 54 different sufixes to a base of the word. :) And this are only adjectives... don´t even get me started on nouns or verbs... :D

Still feel like pizza? :wink:
