>>What language are you learning? Hungarian. Extremely steep learning curve, so difficult to retain vocabulary (let alone do anything useful with it).
Oliver Hernandez
What means "inda"?
Luke Nguyen
What attracted you to Hungarian in the first place. Just curious.
Brandon Smith
coi .ui
Unfortunately I don't know much lojban .uinai It's logical grammar is beautiful though.
Aaron Nelson
Has anyone had any luck with learning Finnish? I've heard it's hard but really want to be able to shitpost with the Finns
Aaron Myers
"x1 is worth x2-ing". Borrowed shamelessly from Esperanto.
Jackson Garcia
It's not a bother, takes 1 min to post this shit lmao I just want the resources out there mostly I know there ain't much to talk about it.
Isaiah Flores
Greek (modern, I'm not masochistic). It's an obviously fucked and ass backwards language so I'm loving it. A little bit harder than I expected, except the pronunciation is basically Spanish with a Russian accent so I already had a decent accent from the start (I speak Spanish.
Dylan Wright
Stfu faggot, I like these threads. Sup Forums should focus more on language learning than just talking in English or Spanish or pinoy. Sup Forums programs and modifies stuff, /lit/ reads and writes, /k/ shoots and stabs, Sup Forums elects presidents.
Sup Forums should stop being a boring fucking board for anime weebs who want to interact with other anime weebs, and focus on learning or doing more.
/lang/ threads are good options for that as far as I'm concerned.
Isaac Morris
This, it's fucking ridiculous how the /general/ mindset has set in stone. It's all a fucking chatroom of different languages barely interacting with each others. Surely we can have among that a relatively serious thread that's actually useful
Luis Jenkins
I've had an urge to learn Chinese (Mandarin) this week. It's such an intriguing language and it's history is virtually isolated from western history until the 1800s. But i'm never going to spend more time than a holiday in China and it's apparently 4+ years until you can read comfortably read.
Gotta stick to Russian.
Jeremiah Cruz
Ayyyyyyyyyyy Your post reads pretty uneventfully and then you drop that fucking punchline
Nathaniel Wood
I somehow think you also need to learn for like 4 years to become fluent in Russian.
James Nguyen
Just stick with Russian. When I learn languages I constantly get the urge to drop them and do something else, which always leaves me feeling worse for having not continued.
I'm also learning Russian for at least the third time, and I'm not making any progress on how I was 2 years ago because I keep quitting to learn some other shite.
Xavier Collins
Just learn it
Elijah Long
Interesting choice! What level are you at right now? Also why on earth would you want to learn Hungarian, is there a grill involved?
John Baker
...
Aaron Brooks
Holy shit that's some hardcore sadness. Unironically reminded me of the last time I was in Hungary and how depressing the countryside there is.
Ryder Brown
I want to learn French since it's the second international language, it would be the most useful to learn. I haven't tried very hard. I downloaded all the old Simpsons episodes dubbed, since I know exactly how they all go, I could just absorb it all? Mais non, apparently I have to pay more attention and actually learn shit. I'm too ADHD for that shit
Connor Wright
>useful
))))))))))))))
Thomas Price
Yeah you're right dude, I should learn some Ukraine so I can make some small talk with the guy in the shittest part of the city threatening to stab me but I don't see him holding any knife
Jack Smith
What the fuck are you on about, you buttmad bogan?
What I meant is that the concept of "useful languages" is fucking retarded (unless you're learning it for a legit, undeniably solid reason, like if your boss suddenly goes "we're sending you to Thailand to open a local office of the company and you're in charge, better start learning the lingo"). That's like thinking what TV show to watch and deciding you'd watch House of Cards because it's useful for understanding the American political system, or House MD because it's useful as a source of random medicine-related info.
Bentley Brooks
you sure seem pretty steamed for someone calling me buttmad Because i'm Australian, I plan to be Australian for the rest of my life, we don't have a Mexico or Finland next door. I don't need to learn any other languages at all. None of them are useful. So I can choose any I want. I was going to say Latin, because that really if my first choice, but I knew I would get called a nerd for that shit and now here I am getting criticized for wanting to learn the language that half of my passport is written in I don't mind about the bogan comment I am from Maylands after all
Tyler Robinson
Latin is 10/10, syntactically orgasmic tbqhwy famm8. It's really hard, especially for an Anglo who's probably never heard of grammatical cases or the neuter gender, but worth it. Go for it
Oliver Wood
I know what they are, I know Latin has about 16 of them, I didn't know if I could stay committed
Austin Phillips
Kek, just 6 actually. It does have a pretty intimidating array of verb tenses though, and past historic is as fucked as in French, but otherwise it's pretty easy to learn the paradigms (plus there's just 4 declensions, for a classical language that's pretty damn merciful). The real difficulty of Latin is in the syntax, but that's exactly what makes it worth the effort.
Jackson Ross
The issue I see is there's no real way to immerse yourself. There's plenty of texts, but not really any TV shows or anything
Ryder Peterson
It's not a living language, you won't feel like you need more immersion because of that. It feels like a language for reading ancient fags' blog posts about conquering Gallia or philosophical treatises and such, and that's exactly what you'll have on hand
Leo Perez
But user, you don't need to know finnish in order to shitpost with the finns.
Josiah Lewis
I assumed with it I could speak with Italians, Spaniards, Portuguese and their bastard colonies at about 75% comprehension level?
Bentley Scott
Lmao, no, they're all very divergent. They're honestly closer to English than Classical Latin at this junction. Hint: if you want le key to all of Romance world, learn Spanish
Ian Long
Nigga, you won't learn French from the Simpson.
There is a fundamental difference between study and practice in form of consuming authentic material and you won't understand anything aimed at native speakers outside of your text book anytime soon.
Andrew Cox
I actually have interests in Russian other than thinking the language is interesting so my motivation is more sustainable.
Kayden Gray
I'm learning German.
I'm getting alot from my class but sadly it's only super easy tourist stuff. I'm learning alot on my own though so I might reach decent conversational German within a decade.
Memorising verbs is priority 1 right now.
Nathaniel Bennett
> alot > twice I'd finish learning English first, mate.
Benjamin Lewis
>Sup Forums programs and modifies stuff No one there does, really.
>tfw trying to immerse yourself in the language you're learning >tfw no interesting german websites >tfw i only bother posting on Sup Forums and krautchan is dead
I expected it to be easier, but it's impossible. I can't force myself to read stuff I'm not really interested in when the only few websites I frequent are in English and have no German equivalents.
Jayden Reed
i started learning chinese two weeks ago. any tips?
Hudson Clark
Get that one app that makes you draw the characters. Only thing I'm aware of.
Jaxson Roberts
Any vodkarune reader in here? Trying to not get asbestos poisoning.
Samuel Evans
GP-7K3-92-47
If that's what you're asking for
Aaron Watson
Well, that at least tells me it's from a GP7. Not too sure if the last numbers are a date. But it shouldn't contain any asbestos in that case.
Luke Ortiz
What is that? An MRE type-thing?
Dominic Torres
muh heritage
One side of my family is Italian, the other Hungarian; but I always had closer ties to the Italian side and I spent some time in Italy learning the language. Wanted to try Hungarian for the challenge.
Level: very beginner. Trying to build some vocabulary through clozemaster; basic understanding of some grammar concepts (ex. case endings and vowel harmony, word order is still a problem), but not enough practice with them.
Hunter Cox
It's a gas mask filter. A russian one at that- And old Russian filters all contain one thing, asbestos. Not this one tho.
