Learning Languages Thread

Postby ***** » Thu Apr 28, 2011 9:50 pm

Ok so this thread will be dedicated to users who are interested in learning other languages. We have a multicultural community so it'll be easy. I'm fluent in Arabic and English, I was decent in Spanish and German at one point, but I forgot most it now :p
But if there are any Spanish users willing to help me get my Spanish back on track then I'd appreciate that.


If anyone is interested in learning a certain language, here's a list of members who have experience in a specific language and are willing to help:

Arabic - Ogrelicious, Deebo
English - Warrior Princess, Cosmic Castaway, ImagineAsian♪♫, Zoe
French - Warrior Princess
Korean - Aozame32
Malay - mayahabee
Polish - イ★シ
Serbian - Xykon the Lich
Spanish - Speed King, Warrior Princess
Tagalog - Pencey

I only know a bit of French. I'm on my second year of learning it, but next year I'm switching to Sign Language.

I'd LOVE to learn Japanese, but I bet it would be really hard [sweatdrop]

I was interested in learning Spanish, Japanese and Mandarin. I'm not that interested in learning another language at the moment, but if I had to choose, then i guess Japanese, since I'm already taking a Spanish class.

I'm only fluent in English. I know some Spanish and Japanese. I knew some Mandarin but I forgot a lot of it.

I also find French interesting.

@Deebo: You've got a little bit of a mistake with your Spanish grammar, let me fix it for you:

estudie Espanol durante cuatro meses en la universidad de Bradford. Te gusta mi Espanol? <<<< I have fixed it for you

Month in Spanish is this: Meses you don't have to put 2 ss

and four is cuatro not quatre ;)

Tu español no esta mal , con un poco de practica podrás conseguirlo [thumbsup] No sabia que has estudiado Español por cuatro meses en Bradford :o

I NEEEED to learn Filipino, specifically Tagalog and Bisaya before I go back to the Philippines in 2O12. D:

I'm getting sick of being called "American Girl" by my hundreds of cousins there. They say stuff about me that I can't understand and then they laugh. T-T

I've been learning Japanese with Namasensei's [censored] Japanese Lessons on YouTube so if anyone wants to help theirselves rapid fire then check them out. They do contain beer and swearing though, just so you know to take it with a huge grain of salt. It's a lot more exciting than your generic teachers who have 10f monotonic voices and uncomparable things to link each other with which in my opinion is rather essential.

That aside, I have one Finnish -language teaching video up, but my English is still a thousand miles away compared to that (obviously) so I cannot really go deep to the language with the terms as much as I'd like to -although Google Translate could prove to be some use-.

I wanna learn Japanese (which I'm doing anyway but very slowly...) and French D:
For French I took classes at uni so yeah. It's hard but it's also fun.

I'm fluent in Polish and English, I wish I could be in German though. v_v

If anyone wants to brush up on their English, I'm your man. I'm an English major, so that's kind of my thing. ; )

I'm fluent in Bahasa Indonesia, still have to learn some of English though.
But anyway, I'd like to learn Arabic & Nihon (Japanese). I know some of Nihon and got the media for study but I couldn't find someone who can help me to learning Arabic [shrug]

Meh, I'd be happy to know German, French, Spanish, Italian and some other languages completely fluently, but that ain't gonna happen.

Actually, I'd like to know many languages, but I doubt that I can learn even a few of them. :/

If, for whatever reason, anyone is interested in learning Serbian, go ahead and tell me. It's more or less the perfect language, and it is quite easy to learn.

The only one I'd be good enough to "teach" is English.

That being said, I know a fair bit of Greek as that was my first language.

I can help a bit with Japanese and Korean as well, would like to brush up on those two and Greek though.

I honestly had a hard time deciding between Arabic and Japanese, but I figured since I already know a decent amount of Korean, that Japanese would be the next logical thing. Although, if I learned Arabic, then I could talk with my husband in Arabic all the time! :D

But anyway, if anyone would like to learn a bit of Korean, feel free to PM me!
