>post yfw anglos will try to justify their stupidity in this thread
yes yes go on I am waiting

They actually don't need to learn another language. I'm fucking jealous

>They actually don't need to learn another language. I'm fucking jealous
Yeah, everything is accurately translated to their language there is not a single loss of cultural aspects or information haha. Hence why we should do like Brave New World and make all languages but English extinct

yeah... i agree... it is painful and boring learning other languages
i know the retarded version of Portuguese and English
and now, i'm learning French - i don't know why
by the way, fuck your grammar - why so hard?

ON behalf of all whites, 'I'm Sorry'.

>tfw I'll never get to read Dante in the original Italian.
This is a terrible feel.

just learn italian m8, it's not that hard, join /ita/ with us :)

My great-grandfather would be ashamed of me if I learned it. He didn't force his wife to stop speaking it for nothing.

>My great-grandfather would be ashamed of me if I learned it. He didn't force his wife to stop speaking it for nothing.
ok so you will never read Dante in its original language

A cunt raised by degenerate fucks

you're the guy whose grandfather hated italians but married one right?
i hope he didn't beat her

Oh noes, all those Brazilian classics I'm missing out on...

>he doesn't know we have literally the top 3 best seller of the world
>he doesn't know we have several authors including ones that people actually learn portuguese for it
>he doesn't know we have so many poems that it actually breached the poetry barrier and some even became musicians
>he doesn't know two of our authors were unironically diplomats that spoke more than 10 languages and translated tons of portuguese works into other languages and successfully created new words into other languages including English
I am literally laughing at you

>you can only learn one language
Too bad you won't ever know who's Camões, Fernando Pessoa, Eça de Queiroz, Machado de Assis, et cetera

Anglos are cute when they try to speak French

Why would I ever need to learn a second language?

If you want forever to live in your anglo-centric bubble and be forever guided by only one line of thought like a sheep, never

Huemonkey I've seen City of God. I don't think I missed any of the cultural nuances of street monkeys just because I had to read subtitles.

>Huemonkey I've seen City of God. I don't think I missed any of the cultural nuances of street monkeys just because I had to read subtitles.
>HE UNIRONICALLY BELIEVES THIS

>he thinks subtitles cover up favela slang and are able to translated to english
lol so you haven't really seen city of god

>tfw learning french

Je parle francais

Is good for the brain speak two languages or more.

Wow this is pathetic

Yeah, I know you have been fooled all around. I mean most anglos think that by knowing english they know everything since they have access to it, but in the end you guys just get a scraped superficial rendition of it

I've studied several other languages and I did well at all of them. The problem for us in America is that since nobody around us speaks other languages (except maybe Spanish, but many of us are not around Spanish speakers either) it's just hard to stay in practice. The "American education" meme is not entirely without a solid foundation, but the geography and demographics of Europe lend itself a lot better to its citizens being multilingual.

The subtitles for City of God fucking suck dude, watching it as a portuguese speaker is way better than reading them. You miss out on so many slang, jokes, references, so much content you will never appreciate

I'am saving brain cells for more important things then learning some savage language i will never need outside of niche shit.

also i am too dumb to learn japanese.

Portugese isn't in the top ten list of languages I'd like to learn.
T. Polyglot

His children were all really successful. It's kind of surprising when I think about it.
Yeah. I have a weird relationship with my heritage.
He became a drunk after the war, so it wouldn't surprise me. I hope he didn't too.

2bqf, England does the same, it's just that you guys think in practical terms and not really in knowledge or cultural terms, most protestant countries think this way. Hence why most of you use this excuse of "why should I learn a new language". Catholic countries usually value experience over practicality hence the difference
ok
t. Polyglot

>thinking I would appreciate a story about a ganglord getting murdered in the street by literal children by learning Portuguese
That's where you're wrong

it says a lot that you need to say this in english

>Catholic countries usually value experience over practicality hence the difference
Do you appreciate the irony of posting this and replying to the only Majority Catholic country that speak English as their first language in the same post?

>not enjoying a great movie because the story is about crime and gang wars
Does the violence hurts your feelings?

I already know spanish, english, japanese. What other language should i learn now?

I was interested in french or german but they will soon be dead tongues so there's no point.

Well I need to lower down to your level so you can understand, but yeah I could always talk in portuguese when I want
lol, I said that to the american not to you

There's plenty of people in Africa that will keep French alive.

do french if you like beautiful literature and poetry and modernist/postmod + renaissance philosophy
do german if you like realist literature and hardcore philosophy that changed the status quo forever

>they will soon be dead tongues so there's no point.
People will always study them for literature. they might becom dead like Ancient greek and latin not dead like Irish and Welsh
I second this.

>他不会说汉语
呵呵呵。 在大学我学习汉语,和明年我学习汉语和德语或者法语。

Jokes aside, people rarely know second languages because most of the time the language tuition you receive in school is shit compared to the rest of the world unless you go to a school that specialises in languages, or they just went to a REALLY good (private or grammar) school. The reason language tuition in your average English school is shit is because there really isn't any need to learn anything besides English in a world where anyone worth doing business with knows English at a good enough level to conduct business in.

A normie can pick up a few languages, but once it gets over 6, it's likely you're autistic.

Keep working on your learning, user

Are you saying Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1 was autistic?

there is a greater chance he's autistic if he knows a lot of languages

>needing to learn another language

I can go to any corner of this planet and find someone who knows basic english, with the only exception being Spain

With this attitude, why do you even browse Sup Forums?

I browse it for quality Argentinian memes

...

I'm learning French and I post on /fr/ very occasionally

French is a really cool language but all of the different identical sounds made it really hard for me. I took three years in high school and made great grades. I was at the point where my reading and writing was kind of almost fluent, but the speaking and listening was always very hard for me for that reason. Too many silent letters and shit.

I know Latin and Spanish.

Would like to hop into the world of France but their grammar scares me.

I've just really had trouble with when to use the subjontif it being something we don't have in English but other than that I'm nearly fluent at this point

desculpo meu macaco amigos para meu mau portugues

eu falo um algum

I only vaguely remember that one. Like I remember it being "a thing" but it's been a very long time. All of a sudden I sort of want to get on Duolingo and brush up on my French.

Basically after "que" in certain phrases you have to conjugate the verb differently like "Il faut que", "Je pense que", etc

I am though

Yeah that does kinda ring a bell... Do you have any particular plans to use your French, out of curiosity? For travel, business/work in the future, whatever? I'd fucking love to have work over there. It's a great cunt and a lovely people, France-hate memes notwithstanding.

You're addicted to refreshing pages full of disgusting, socially unacceptable, mentally unstable, repetitive nonsense. You're probably also addicted to porn.

You're compensating for your inability to be happy and fulfilled in real life. You're just too fucking stupid to understand that. Which is probably because of your African genes. Which is fine. I will refrain from judging you. Live your silly monkey life, my little monkey. Go, be free.

I dunno I am visiting France this summer but I just have a real love for the language

French is one of the more babby-tier languages. One of the easiest for English speakers to learn.

Fuck yeah man, where are you going? Make sure you get out of Paris. Paris is cool and you should see it too, but don't let it be your only impression of the country.
I disagree. I've taken French, Spanish, German, and Japanese, and I've fucked around with Norwegian on Duolingo, and I think French was harder than any of them with the exception of Japanese. And Japanese was only really so hard because of the moon runes and general lack of cognates. It's a really simple and pragmatic language aside from that. Which others have you studied?

I'll only have the chance to see Paris for this trip because I'm going to a couple other countries in Europe but I also wanna see Nice and Lyon in the future

learning french at the moment
reckon my pronunciation is sound

I cannot imagine a more pathetic way to die. Ze was murdered by a pack of children, alone in an alley. What a pussy.

I don't need to learn your retarded monkey language, Pablo. I'm already speaking the apex language.

>LONDON, June 25— Peter Singh, an Indian whose Sikh religion requires him to wear a turban, recalled how Elvis Presley came to him in a dream in 1980 to say, ''You're the next one.''
>Mr. Singh has also composed ''Turbans Over Memphis,'' ''Rocking With the Sikh,'' ''My Popadum Told Me,'' ''Who's Sari Now?'' and the memorable ''Elvis, I'm on the Phone.'' In that tune, Elvis makes a telephone call to Mr. Singh from heaven to say: ''Peter, there's just one thing I wanna know. What's the weather like down there in Swansea?''
Why can't I find more info on this guy? That image has been floating around for years. He was in a band called The Screaming Pakistanis

>Who's Sari Now?
Solid kek

>date russian polyglot, learn german, french, and spanish with her, russian from her

>pretty positive the israeli's family was mossad, dad was at LEAST
>KNOW russian's family is russian intel, both worked sigint and her mother was approached upon visit back home
>met several people i am positive are russian spies while dating her (beautiful women who spoke perfect english, but were fresh off the boat and came here alone)
>pretty sure the iranian's family was bad news
what's wrong with me?

I only learn languages that increase my salary, like SQL or Python

Yeah, if you're into /lit/erature, learning several languages is a must. Mainly just German and French (in addition to English). But also lots of old/dead languages and plenty of others. For example, Japanese is needed if you want to get into the heart of Japanese literature (you won't find proper translations of most things and you properly grasp the weight and meaning of anything by reading a translation).

Otherwise you're reading from the narrow lens of English and you will never truly appreciate the real value of given literary works, or the culture that underpins them.
