Are you learning a language, if it's so tell us how is it going? so far i speak english even though, no so good and i'm learning french which is great, i love french but i'm just starting.

Quelles langues parlez-vous?

Je prendu une classe de francais a l'ecole secondaire pour trois ans. Structure de phrase est mal, mais whatever. Tôt, j'ai prendre une d'autre classe de francais pour université. J'etre vais a francais deux quand je commence a nouveau.

However, I could only ever write and speak French, but when it's verbally spoken to me I can't understand because it happens to quickly and the the accent is too thick for me to determine which words are being said and where they end unless the speaker is speaking with an Americanized/Bastardized French accent or it's a very basic phrase.

I speak fluent Irish, for all the good that does me... Very few people in Ireland, especially in Dublin, speak Irish so I don't speak it much.

Isn´t it actually called Gaelic ? Is Irish the official name of that language?


Gaelic is the official language of Ireland, but most speak English The Dutch language French and Afrikaans are also cool languages cool

I know a handful of languages... I'm fluent in Czech (native tongue), English, and Spanish, then can make myself understood in Arabic and Romanian, plus some Persian and French. And I did Latin for a semester, but hardly remember anything sad

Besides English, I also speak Te Reo Maori, the language of the Maori. It is very similar to Hawaiian, Tahitian and most closely to Cook Islands Maori.

Assuming "Pirinihi" means "Prince", does it mean that you can't say Prince in Te Reo Maori the same way as in English? Or is it a literal translation?

Our language is full of a lot of transliterations as it was stone age, and only synthesised in the 1820s. Maori did not have Princes or Kings, merely high chiefs (Ariki), lesser chiefs (Rangatira), Commoners (Tangata) Slaves (Taurekareka) or Priests (Tohunga). Other transliterations include

Kamaputu = Gumboots, Kemihi = Chemist, Kingi = Kingi, Kuini Wikitoria = Queen Victoria. However like many Stone age languages, everyday words and words about nature, things and grammar were not made up.

.

Another one = Mikaere Hakona (You should get that one biggrin)

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

English is my first language. I also am fluent in portuguese. I studied Spanish and Italian in school. I am of Polish origin but for some reason I did not learn the language.

My native language is Spanish, but I also speak English, obviously, and Catalan.
