What's your favourite language?



And why?





I love Italian....





Not just for the sound of the language, - but I love the way they use the words.....





Spanish is cool, too.....





German kinda scares me.





Cantonese? - well - that's just Strange.





Swedish intrigues me - I'd like to learn more about it.





French? - I know French. - It's a fun, sexy language.





English? - boring.. - but necessary....





Finn? - I just know the swear words...(my Mom was Finn...)





DAMMIT.



(That's a boring English swear word...)





SO.





Tell us the cool swear words in your Native languages, please....

I like Spanish. The more you drink, the easier it is. I learned Spanish on the north coast of Colombia, which was like learning English deep in Appalachia, so my accent is kinda weird.

German is my favourite language. Can't explain it.



I like Thai a lot too probably because it's tonal and Cantonese is tonal so I can say the tones.



Rod, I think it's harder to pronounce Cantonese than Swedish....



In Cantonese, you only have to change the tone of the word ever so slightly and you are now saying (for example "pig's ear" instead of "make a decision") or ("punk" instead of "pretty gay boy") That's probably why people don't bother learning it.....

Sprechen sie Duetsch, baby? ;)



I don't have a favorite language. Any language sounds good if spoken by a sexy female voice.

Cantonese is weird.

Eigentlich, ja. Ich lebt in Deutschland vier Jahre, und habe eine Deutscherin geheiratet. Aber mein Grammatik ist nicht immer richtig. Deutch ist ein bisschen compliziert!

Wir sprechen doch "Deutsch-lisch" zu hause -- eine Mischung zwischen English und Deutsch. Wir haben nur Katzen und Hunde, aber ich habe ein 18-Jahre alt Sohn von meine erste Weib. Er hat genug mit English. :)



Wir fahren nicht zu Deutschland -- zu viel Wasser im weg. Fliegen ist schoener. :)



Wir haben besucht fuer Silvester 2000. Und sie hat a paar mal auch alleine.



Eben hab' ich dich verstanden, ich glaube. ;)

Du vertehest gut! Besuch ist "visit", also nicht so wiet von "reisen" (to travel. Und Silvester kennst du vielleicht besser als New Year's Eve.



Es gibt ein Goethe Institue im HK? Interessant.



Viel Fahr-Vergnugen in China!

Yes ! you right, and it's the same for Thai,

where one sentence could mean something good :bday

but with wrong tone of the word(s)

it could be a deadly insult :wtf



in Swedish, if you pronounce some word "wrong"

it will still have the right meaning.



I like English best !

we all can make ourself understod.



:merci
