The 'ß' is a double 's'. It literally means shit ;)

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
thats why some think my nick TruB, is pronounced 'Truss'..
i only got one thing to say to them.. - you suck! |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Har. You know, I'm surprised shithead isn't used that much in german -it sounds much better than in english. On the topic of love? No. Not german. Porn movies perhaps, niceties, no. It just sounds so wrong.
French? It sounds like you're trying to spit things out, unless you have throat cancer and don't produce much saliva. People used to tell me dutch included too much hacking, but I find that is only true for some people. It sounds very english to me. Can't be bothered with many capitals today it seems. |

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Heyyo,
Heh... explains the excessive saliva falling out of the corner of my mouth when I talk to chicks and I'm thinking in french... yes. :| |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Hehehe. I know what you mean PMB, I'm picking on that bad bits. Heh, another of my "french" peeves is the snappy ones. They remind me of the spanish too much. There is one like this in my Jitsu club, her boyfriend is always on tenterhooks concerning her.
Noone can deny however that german is the language of porn. |

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
all languages suck. there should be an international language. i'd call it basic, but microsoft fucked that one up for all future uses :D
|
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
hehe.. yeah.. i vote for an international language.. and i wouldnt mind it being english..
an international language do exist.. but no one uses it.. |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
well, esperanto is an obvious choice, and contrary popular belive a lot of people actually speak esperanto. Exactly how many is very difficult to say, but more than a million, that's for sure...
Haven't learned it yet though... but it's on my to-do list ;) I've always found dutch to be like german, with extra throat sounds added. Btw, I love german. Haven't really had a use for it in 3 years now, but i keep on speaking it just for the fun of it anyway... not that I'm good at it... it just has a nice 'sound' to it :D |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
rofl. i just remeber somthing my IPE 251 Lecturer said:
Never forget Guys: any programming language with the word VISUAL in it isnt a language, its a social disease :D |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
hehe, at least something you've learned there ;)
|
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
We should all speak Latin. Actually it seems English might be the best choice considering how many people speak it now. However, I think that Spanish would be a good choice. Spanish is taught in schools around here. In my old high school, you could choose either Spanish, German, or French. I think they may have more now. I don't know for sure but they might have Russian.
|
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Good god no, I'd prefer to learn ...I'll get back to you there.
And a million isn't very much, you know. They speak it badly too. ;) I know of one person I've met who can speak it, of the rest I believe I am the only one who has seriously looked at one of those online courses in it. It'll never catch on in the modern world. |

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Ye means you. Pronouced yee. Why is that supposed to be hard?
Now thou is confusing. I looked it up. I can't really tell when you are supposed to use it. |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Incorrect. "You old english?", reffering to the language? ha!
No. |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Ye can be used as 'you' in plural, where as thou is singular you (ie only speaking to one person). Dunno about 'Ye' when it's in front of nouns...
Actually the words are grammatically altered kinda like german in old english... thou willst for example, with that extra st in the end... that's kinda kuul. |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
I believe ye means "your"
I had a list of all this old english stuff somewhere... |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Ye is more to be The.
like "De" in dutch and "Der" in german. Ye, De. Probably pronounced as thE |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
can you just stop with the talk about Ye.. and old english..
we need to make a big decision here.. what language will be the universal language? or maybe we should have europe start talking english since most alread can it.. except france.. but we make them have it in school.. and all other contries.. in 50 years english will be the first or second language in europe.. for all.. except granny and grandpa in france.. :p then.. comes the big move.. everybody moves over to english.. and it will be the only spoken language.. by now.. a basic chineese is being teached in school. which is the only language talked in asia by now.. and they are teaching enlish.. in about 50 years.. a new decision is being made.. will the new languag be english or chineese?? |

And I don't think it will be chinese, mandarin or cantonese. The languages dominate a block, everybody else is too far from, and too established to ever accept any chinese as "the" language. If it isn't english, it will always be multipolar. |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
true.. but its the no the most spoken language around where i live.. i know 2 who can speak it.. not enough to make me learn it.. somehow i think english is more dynamic..
|
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
It's not that I don't want to learn Chinese (I actually do), but people would have to much trouble with it. It is tonal, one word can mean multiple things depending on the tone it is said in.
Then again, in English it depends on the rest of the sentence. |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
I don't know if English will be the international language or not, but it definitely is for me one of, if not THE simplest of all (not that I speak it without mistake, though :|)
|
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Everybody, especially native english speakers, speak it improperly due to bad habits picked up and local slang.
As long as people get what you mean without having to re-read or repeat it, then theres no reason for any complaint. |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
Instead creating a new topic I'm just invoking the old one valid again. :D
Happy birthday, Onno. :) :happybday: |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
good idea.. happy Bday!
|
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
happy bday onno ... if it's right :)
someone should clean up the offtopic area, someone with time on his hands ... |
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
:happybday:
|
Re: Happy B-Day Onno
OFF: Oh, I forgot for the old topic. However I still don't have the needed rights to delete the new one so someone that have can do it. Sorry for the mistake.
ON: Happy b-day Onno. :) |
