How the hell did you learn english, being Swedish and all? You seem like an intelligent person to be multi-lingual, correct? |

|
|
join the army and shut up |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you could presume that I am supporting president bush's war... but i am really not... i really did sign up for the army & i am currently deployed to Ar Ramadi, Iraq... i joined the army to quit wasting my time with drugs & get a fucking MAJOR reality check... some days are fucking insane... others are just right. i do not encourage anyone on this lovely board to join the armed forces of your country... but i do ask that you re-evaluate the choices you make. aside from the serious/bullshit "oh hey, look at me I'm quoth & i am a fucking stupid piece of shit who joined the army..." etc I have been listening to a lot of the Cure recently & some portishead... that's my normal routine here in Iraq. have you seen dead bodies in person? |

I speak 3 languages therefor i'm a bleeding genius LOLE |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you just destroyed my hopes for an afterlife |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
me too, but speaking finnish is actually difficult |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mang not if you were born in finland hyvä? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
actually i might be totally swedish-speaking and born in finland since we have two languages here ( as a bleeding genius you propably know that;) ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wish i was a genius :) most of the nordic countries speak swedish as a second language don't they? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no, most of the other nordic languages just are so close to swedish they are mildly understood by one another. also an english-speaker could probably learn swedish quite easily. finnish(and estonian) is from another language family than swedish/norwegian/danish, and rated the hardest language in the world written woth roman alphabets. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i know i have a few finish friends they teach me a few words like mitä kuuluu |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I speak six languages. And given time, I can reason my way through other languages.. they're all related in some way... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
that's great what languages do you speak |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i speak engrish :P i used to speak fluent german as a kid but when i moved in with my dads side of the family i was raised with english and completely forgot german, which was very weird. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Norwegian, danish, swedish, english, german, and quite a bit of latin (I'm not able to form correct latin sentences most of the time, though, and the pronounciation isn't that good). |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and while it may seem like the three first languages are very much alike, swedes almost never understand what norwegians say, but norwegians understand swedes. danish people are odds and evens.. some get it, some don't. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i wish i could speak all the languages of the world, that would make me feel as good as james bond |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i get all three of those languages :o |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i speak fluent spanish, italian and english i can understand other latin languages too and speak a few words languages are really nice |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but you are finnish, not swedish. swedes don't get norwegian. they don't understand that "glass" means something different in norwegian, and that "sjanger" doesn't mean "sjunger" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Fuck my stupid country. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes, they are. I've been interested in linguistics and language in general for quite a while now.. I just hope it doesn't apply to my philosophy, 'cause I'm getting tired of the fact that all new philosophers study language and logic based on language. I think it's time we got back to the big questions. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
finns must know other languages, since the finnish is so difficult, that sometimes they can't even understand each other :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hahhaha! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
btw, slavonic languages are pretty similar as well, so i can understand quite a bit of all of those...actually i can speak croatian and serbian almost as good as slovenian. i assume it's simmilar to that danish-swedish-norweigan situation. and i can understand almost everything i read (as long as it isn't too complicated) in spanish, which is kind of weird since my italian isn't that perfect :) but if i speak in italian when im in spain people seem to understand me... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"but if i speak in italian when im in spain people seem to understand me..." seem to, yes. hahahahahah! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha, well so far everything went as planned, so maybe it doesn't just seem so :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it went as planned BECAUSE you had planned it. (They're watching you!!!) |
