Happy B day man

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

that made me think of what happy birthday is in my language (swedish)..
i cant remember.. :(

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

:D

Grattis pä födelsedagen? (http://www.geocities.com/SoHo/Bistro/5025/happy_en.htm ;))

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

yeah thats it
btw its "på"

grattis/congratulation
på/on
födelse/birth
dag/day

the "en" in dag'en' makes it strong.. like: the day.

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

I see...thanks :) Someday I might want to learn a bit Swedish.

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

no you dont.. its the worst language ever..

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

No its not, so elegant. french is definately worst language ever ... :D

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

learn it .. and then you get to judge :p

ive heard that its as complicated for an regular amerikan as it is for an northern europe to learn chineese..

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

happy birthday

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

lol
Some people say its fairly easy. It seems more logic than dutch(dutch is a mess IMO). Also some words are the same or simulair only you write them different(västkust - westkust, byrån - bureau(buro), Välkommen - welkom).
Can't really comment on the grammer though. But if I know some words the sentence makes sence to me.

"Its just different" ;)

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

I beg to disagree... I can't understand a thing of german... Actually, I can. "Halt!", "Verbotten" and "Amerikanisch!". Thank you Medal of Honor and B&W WWII movies.

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

ive had classes in the german language in 4 years time in my junoir age.. still cant talk it.. but i understand some..

i guess i had more importent things to do back then.. like talk to the girls at the same table.. i wonder how come they managed so good..

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

german is nearly as ugly as french :D i prefer english, so much easier. Only problem is, english isnt precise enuf, too vague and ambiguous, especially for affairs of the heart.

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

happy birthday

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

And that's why I prefer portuguese, the only language that has one word for the "I miss you" feeling... Saudade.

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

I disagree. English has multiple words that greatly, (but not completely) overlap in meaning. You have to get the feel for the word though, before you can choose the right word, (not the "correct", note) for what you want to get across.

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

i know english and spanist i wanna learn German. I took french in high school passed 1st semester failed the second cause it didnt quite catch my attention. but that was 3 years ago..lol

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

And then the meaning of words and phrases varies a lot depending on the area, especially since so many countries speak English as a native language.

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

so what country is laziest to learn outher languages.. could it be france or maybe china?

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

Should be france...PMB is one of the few frenchman who happen to know english too ;)

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

i know one more..

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

...that's where French's psychopathic accuracy takes all its sense 8)

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

Spanish is easier than French. If only I remembered it.

:P

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

and german as well - even though you don't like long words ( that's like in french. just remove the 'de', reverse the order of the words, translate them separately and attach one to the other ). although I guess there are quite some germans who cannot use their language when it comes to those topics :D

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

At some point you stop using the language and you start using the tongue, things usually get a lot simpler after that :D

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

rofl. yeh i heard something about french girls being able to use their tongues really well ... :D just didnt think it ACTUALLY meant talking *evil grin*

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

Why do the people spam so much here? I really can't get it. The topic was dedicated to our admin's birthday, guys...

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

were just chitchatting, this IS the offtopic forum afterall :D

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

i like it around here.. some communities (or atleast one) closes topic when as soon as one person seem to go sidetracking.. its annoying as hell.. and if someone got a problem.. and someone answers.. its closed.. admins who constantly wants to prove to them self that they still can do it..

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

Heyyo,

Yes, and we have like, civilized forum posters man, I love it hea at BU. Best forum I've ever been on man. :D

Anywho, happy b-day onno, and I'm with PMB, french is definately one of the main languages of love. It rocks. German? never thought they'd be one, let's see an example of german being a language of love. ;)

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

well, rather in terms of accuracy than in terms of love :)

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

German always sounds so.. angry. But then maybe that because most of the German I'm exposed to comes from watching WW2 movies and playing Wolfenstein. :)

Re: Happy B-Day Onno
 

Heyyo,

Heh, don't forget the episode of the simpsons when lisa takes the bus and is lost, and asks the chess player for directions. :P
