should I learn norwegian, so that I can maximise the number of people I can speak with, or icelandic, because it's phonologically and aesthetically nice?
Luke Cruz
This for Old-Norse or Frisian speaker. In Scots there is was -o and -um augmentives, so horsie means small horse and horso means big horse. -o for substantives and -um for adjectives. Is this from Anglo-Saxon?

> The Nellie, a cruising yawl, swung to her anchor without a flutter of the sails, and was at rest. The flood had made, the wind was nearly calm, and being bound down the river, the only thing for it was to come to and wait for the turn of the tide. The sea-reach of the Thames stretched before us like the beginning of an interminable waterway. In the offing the sea and the sky were welded together without a joint, and in the luminous space the tanned sails of the barges drifting up with the tide seemed to stand still in red clusters of canvas sharply peaked, with gleams of varnished sprits. A haze rested on the low shores that ran out to sea in vanishing flatness. The air was dark above Gravesend, and farther back still seemed condensed into a mournful gloom, brooding motionless over the biggest, and the greatest, town on earth. Seems good (for a book that's 120 years old).

>should have stuck in at school. kek that literally translates as "slave of black colours" >speaking a constructed language is more of a larp than mine. Nah I'm pretty sure being an Esperantofag is still more dignified than being a Scots LARPer and denying obvious truths such as Scots just being a regional dialect of English

Good afternoon /lang/! Just finished my daily Dutch lessons. I plan to integrate in the Netherlands, become fluent in Dutch, and give up my American citizenship once I get Dutch citizenship.
>No I didn't. What language is it from? I don't know what language it's from. But you've only ever asked if it's from OE, and the answer to that is no.

I tried to learn Latin but I can't. It sounds so soulless. Maybe I will do German.

A question to Swedes, from 1 to America how retarded would a foreigner sound if he tried to speak Swedish with a "germanlike" pronunciation ,i mean all the letters pronounced the words clearly distinct...
I knew someone half german/half danish and he was surprised when he went to Norway that if he spoke Danish "like German" the Norwegians could understand him. I explained to him that modern Norwegian is literally Danish before the Danes started to speak like French. So, based on my assumption, you'd probably sound Norwegian.

I don't mind circumcised penises (like mine) but the practice itself disturbs me.
Jaxon White
how shit is my accent? Is it ok enough or should I work on it?
Een paar kleine foutjes: een oefening heeft aangegaan - een oefening heeft gemaakt. en ik heb wat vrije tijd. - en ik wat vrije tijd heb (inversie) Ik beantwoord liever vragen dan dit te schrijven - Ik beantwoord liever vragen dan dat ik dit schrijf. (in dit soort zinnen moet je of twee keer de vorm met ik gebruiken.) Volgens mij is valsspelen één woord, voor de rest is alles goed.

why do beginner spanish textbooks focus so much on the simple present tense? It makes it so much harder to comprehend literally anything when you have to wait for an "intermediate" textbook to introduce the past tense, and other tenses is there some sort of pedagogical reason for this?
