Comma placement in my language can also suck a weenus. Too many damn rules.

[Serza]

It amazes me actually how good you are at English. 

 

Talent. I was just born luckier than most. That, and a lot of practice. It wasn't free, but I can't remember ever really working hard for it. I never did work hard for it... Komenský would be proud of me, I suppose, because I perfectly caught the whole "Learn by play" idea he had. Learning was supposed to be something kids would enjoy, because it'd be done in a nice, interesting way, that would make kids WANT MORE LEARNING. It was a clever idea, really.

 

None of this dull, mechanical learning. That's how I did it. I wanted to have fun. Play games. With people. To do that, I had to improve my English. So I improved my English by doing it. Depending on your understanding, I am the very example of that theory in practice.

Indeed.  And I do not appreciate any 'Americans so bad at language' jokes. 

 

[Al Foley]

Achtung, achtung!

hehe.  One of the most famous phrases in war movies.

But... but... Schadenfreude!

 

It's all meant well. And it doesn't have to be meant in ANY way. Since it's hard to mean something that does not exist in any way, right.

Tell me about it.

"Achtung, achtung, die luftlagemeldung."

 

"Warning, warning, air bombardment incoming."

 

If my translations skills are worth half the salt I think they are...

Americans are so bad at English they can't even say aluminium right.

[MilesUpShore]

Achtung, Achtung!

 

I used to have this teacher in German who always pretended to not get if my 's' are supposed to be a capital letter or not. That woman would mark words as wrong in my exams because 'LOL you wrote this with a capital s!' but no idiot would write them like that. Grrrrrr.

[Serza]

I doubt I can say aluminium right...

 

Edit, because I want an excuse to drink: Nope, can't.

Well, I had two years of German at high school, and almost failed the subject... That's my excuse!

 

For all the "lol, talent" talk, I never could get into a second language. Probably because I don't need it in the same sense as the one that helped me with English so much.

Britney Spears released a song called "I'm a slave 4 U?"

hawt.

I think speaking even one second language almost fluently is more than enough. Many people don't.

 

 

*also drinks because finally started to print out some of the poopy real life stuff*

Well, that's because there is a difference between aluminum and aluminium - the former is the original name of the metal, the latter the official name of the periodical element which that metal is comprised of.  Aluminium is basically just aluminum with the periodic table's standard suffix of -ium on the end.  As usual, everyone in the entire world but the US (and Canada!) uses the element name, because they just like to be difficult.

[MilesUpShore]

Ugh, printer, am I right?!

[Donk]

*Snores*

[Al Foley]

*pokes Donk with a very....long...stick*

[MilesUpShore]

*Foley snores softly in the corner and bats at his nose* 

 

*Snores*

 

It's so cute how much the two of you have in common!

[Donk]

Pfft. You wish.

Edit. That was a response to Foley.

Well timed.
