The language thread for languages

[Aden]

Romaji first, then that frustrating katakana and hiragana... |:C

Those are writing systems, not languages.

 

[gyrus]

Why would anyone speak esperanto?

For lulz? That's why I do it

Spanish
El español es un idioma muy dificil, la gramatica es muy complicada.

Si, no me gusta la gramatica, y mi vocabulario esta mal. Soy en espanol uno, pero mis abuelos y tia hablan espanol, y ellos ayudan mi en mi classe.

Re: Languages

Speaking french as my first language and english as my second. I'd have some interrest into learning either spanish, russian or polish as my third.

Jakże miło to słyszeć (czytać)!

I'm sure the above will beat your eyes

As for me, I try to learn Spanish but I've quickly discovered when I go away from my book for too long I definitely forgot almost all what I've been learn . But this what totally show me how much help I need was when I meet once some native Spanish talkers in my university. Through 5 minutes I hadn't even realized it is Spanish! >_>

 

[Insidious_Christmas]

I can speak English and some Chinese.
これは日本語ではなくて中国語なんですから。

 

[dudelbug]

I'm learning Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Polish, Russian and Finnish. Any help with an of those would be absolutely adored. xD <3

Svenska
Finns det nå'n här som pratar svenska? O-o; Jag undrar bara. Som du kan se, jag är inte så bra med det, men jag lär mig. xD

¡Hola a todos mis amigos peludos del ventilador!
¡Hombres lobos y regla de las mofetas!

I know, write, read, and understand Spanish. I can't speak it too fluently.

Wut?

Fail at spanish. Mejor no decir nada, mi inglés es horroroso xD

Saludos a todos!

Esperanto
Are there ANY other furries that speak Esperanto? At all?

I used to learn esperanto, but I developed dissatisfaction with it's sexism, complication, and general limitation.
Consequently I graduated to Lojban, which I now can speak or write moderately well. If I had a bit more vocabulary, it would be a 6th grade level or something, heh.

I'd be pleasantly surprised to find another jbosku (lojban speaker) here,
since they are even less common to find than an esperantisto.

This lojban language sounds horrifying. I like illogical rules in my languages, adds to the spice of things.

Oh yes, it's been criticized as being 'remorselessly precise'. I simply (as a programmer and as a person who hopes to communicate well with others) prefer the potential to communicate very clearly on any given subject over the near-impossibility offered by other languages for some subjects (in short, I think that remorseless precision is overwhelmingly a GOOD thing).
I also rather appreciate the clear phonetics, the ability to write someone's name down and actually know how to pronounce it every time.

German
Ich bin wohl eine der wenigen Deutschen hier, was? Naja, macht nichts ^____^ Ich hab euch alle lieb <3 Ich wollte es nur gesagt haben. Für mich ist es ziemlich schwer, die Sätze richtig auszuschreiben und nicht einfach nur deutsch zu schreiben, wie man es auch spricht: sehr schnell, ohne Großbuchstaben, ohne Punkte, mit viel Smileys und was weiß ich xD So, wer das alles fehlerfrei übersetzen kann, ist entweder wirklich ziemlich gut oder...hat beschissen (slang xD)

Have fun! xD

Hmm... I am taking German classes but I lack confidence pretty much, it is not of much help to do all that work if I do not put it on practice. So... I was thinking if someone there would like to be my practice partner if that is right.

Herr Zerozora, my level is still too low but I guess You pointed out that is important -not necessary that word- to write "Written German" and not "Spoken German". Sorry, I can not translate it now -not without the help of a translator, but I do not want to do that-.

Español
I offer my help if you need some assistance in Spanish.

Sorry beforehand for my pitiful English.

This is obviously 中文 Chinese isn't it?

這一條貼需要一點時間和力氣才能看完，不要說回應和談論關於中文的學說了！
還要我用蘋果的手提電話打這些中文？下一次先吧！

This thread needs some time and effort to read through, not to mention replyingor even talking about Chinese languages.
Even wanting me to type these Chinese characters with the iPhone? Next time, next time.

Can't say in HK, it's too infamous. But in China or Taiwan they call them 獸迷(shoù mí)/獸人(shoù rén)

Which

獸 means beast/animals,
è¿· means fans/addicted to,
人 means human.
​

So it means fans addicted to animals; 獸人 means animal human, if you translate them word by word.

Honestly I don't like the word very much it sounds weird to me. I seldom use it.

Actually, "furry" is weird enough. Don't know who made them up in the first place.



Uh, I guess it's not,

毛茸茸的 means fluffy, furry (the original meaning of this word),
毛(máo) is fur,
茸茸(róng) is some sort of additional rhetoric word to stress how fluff it is,
çš„(de) is just a conjunction.​

Coz furry fandom is not so popular in Chinese culture so theres not really much phrase is used to describe them. Otaku though, has a lot. 宅, 電車, etc (I just can't think of). Guess coz Japan is really hit in Manga so, you know.

PS: Well my Pinyin is quite poor. Coz HK just Cantonese dialect.


If you ask me Chinese I should know. I should.
It's always great to be multi-lingual.

PS: FurAffinity really need to have more text code support. At least my phone is seeing ??? For some Chinese words.
