Oh, I'm supposed to learn Spanish in school. But it's way too easy. Like, we learned how to conjugate... IN SEVENTH GRADE. AND WE STARTED TAKING SPANISH IN THE FIRST GRADE.


Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments We started learning english in third grade.

Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments Originally I was going to try to learn one dialect of chinese but was pushed out of it by the same people who wanted me to learn it in the first place. So instead I've chosen the language I wanted to learn.

The only problem is sentence structure. Apparently it's close to spanish for the soft and hard sines.

We started English in fourth grade. Even though it's my first language, I go to a french school.


Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments Le francais n'est pas une langue simple, mais je pense que c'est just mon opinion car beaucoup d'autre personne dise different.

Did you know that there's tons of different dialects of Chinese? I know some Cantonese, a little Mandarin. my mom is from Canton. :D

It's kinda like PNG,

Just saw this.
Ehn. Dad's supposed to be teaching me Hindi, but he keeps slacking.
And I've got Spanish II this year.


Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments That's cool, Hindi would certainly be an interesting language to learn. He shouldn't wait too long though because languages seem to work by how young you are when you learn it. Sadly.

I understand it, mostly. Like, if someone's talking to me, I can typically tell what they want me to do.
Well, that's when my parents are telling me to do something.
I can't speak it at all, though.


Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments I'm the opposite with Parisian or Quebecois french, it takes a while to click when someone is yelling orders to another in rapid fire speak. I'll catch words of it but mostly our language is surrounded by english so we speak at the pace english would be spoken in.

Haha, my parents speak somewhat slowly to me.
Or...Yeah, I guess. I've never heard super duper fast HIndi, really.

Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments I once was at a grocery store and two people in front of me were speaking lowly to each other in Quebecois french. I only caught short snippets but they were joking about going up some girl they've never met (it was clear since she didn't recognize them and was looking at them weird). It was embarrassing.

I've heard some KPop, not much.

Lawl, that poor girl.


Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments They never approached her, but the people in the place clearly had no idea what they where talking about.

Lol, I saw that. I've been listening to cantonese and Russian opera lately.

In Canada it's a official langugae.

Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments Well, the onyl language that overpopulates English is Manderin, but that's because the chineses government resently booked it as official.

I know a little bit of Mandarin. i know how to count to three.

I know how to count to ten in Cantonese, which i'm proud of. :D

Oh, and I also speak some Hawaiian, too. :D


Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments I know only the slightest bit of Russian, just the basic greetings, the thank you's and a bit of the grammar rules.

Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments Speaking Russian is good.

I don't know, the language is rather complicated. I haven't gotten a hold on the tenses yet.

What on earth even is than. I'm not sure, but I think you got that wrong, because Liu is Cantonese and that isn't cantonese. Oh, and Shi is very similar to the word for death so you wouldn't use it to count. So, I don't even know what you're talking about, and what are Ping-ins?

Daniel- nnumber nine is kyuu. And I thought eerybody knew how to count in Japanese? Sorry, I live in Hawaii, and it's like a standard almost. Harhar

You there- you still haven't told me wtf pingings are.

And in catonese, it's: Yat, ee, sam, say, mmm, look, chot, bot, sop.
Cantonese made easy for you.

Blood Bone and Muscle | 344 comments For the French it's hard because it's one thing to write the numbers, it's another to explain how they are pronounced.

2= d-er ((Harry Potter 'er' like 'Er, alright, I'm coming))

3= trooa

4= katre

5= s-ein-k

6= siss

7= cet

8= *ee-oo*it (the * are to be said quickly) or ue-it

9= n-er-f

10= dzis?
