Repost them plz~!

Also from what I've heard and reserched, Irish is a pretty much dying out language because of English. Which is a really sad thing. And it's rare for young people, who don't come from family that keeps original Irish traditions and uses the language, to pick it up to learn. v__v

But idk if I'm correct, Shaney, come here. [mallet]

Mandarin Chinese. I'd also like to learn Spanish, German and Russian. Russian would be a great help for me, because I live about 60km away from Russia and this town is visited by them many many times.

Pencey and I had our first Korean language session today. It was a lot of fun! :D We went over the Korean alphabet, letter placement rules, and we briefly touched on some basic grammar and verb conjugation. There's still a lot to cover, but I'm really excited about it. And Pencey, you're such a fast learner! :D

Now that you have the alphabet down, learning Korean will be a lot easier. We can get into a lot of useful vocab words and some of the more basic grammar patterns. And I found the grammar book from the language school I went to! Yay~! [clap]

Some help :)
Have you ever taken a Spanish class? Maybe you already know this.

The Numbers = Los Números.
1.Uno
2.Dos
3.Tres
4.Cuatro
5.Cinco
6.Seis
7.Siete
8.Ocho
9.Nueve
10. Diez

They're pronnounced in the same way they're written.

Verbo Ser= Verb To Be

Presente simple = Present simple.

Yo soy = I am
Tú eres= You are
Él/Ella es= He/She is
Nosotros/Nosotras somos =We(masculin/feminine) are.
Vosotros/Vosotras sois= You (masc./fem.) are.
Ellos/Ellas son= They (masc./fem.) are.
