coaster_type_of_person Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I was wondering, does Robb every get offended at any of these. Cuz sometimes they are kind of harsh. Not talking about anybody in this topic, but sometimes some comments are harsh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Well, I can barely speak English, so that counts. And while I don't "speak" any languages, I know enough "words or phrases" to get by in most of mainland Europe, England, Japan, and I guess Mexico!

turbolaaf Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 That you can help your self in Europe is because almost every european does speak english Thats the luxery that American and English people do have over here..... I can speak Dutch German and English but thats because we have to since they are our neighbours. Isn't it so that you American also learn Spanish at school ?

larrygator Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 I think most people choose Spanish as a langauae to study in High School because they hear it is the easiest. Personally, my Junior High School and High School afforded French, Spanish and Italian. I opted for French to be different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the pronunciation is probably a pain in the ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USRoadTripper Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I took three years of Spanish in high school, then it was a minor in college, so I ended up studying it for 7 years I've been told that I speak about as well as a 5 year old native speaker. My last semester in college, I took French 100 as the gimme A class, and I nearly failed it! It was insanely difficult for me since I had studied Spanish for so long! It all just sounded like sounds mushed together, where languages like German and Portuguese actually sound like individual words. Â -Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParkTrips Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 ... It all just sounded like sounds mushed together, where languages like German and Portuguese actually sound like individual words.  Probably because French is 'designed' to be sang  From what I understood, lower level French is tougher than lower level Spanish, but once you get into the advanced stuff (especially in the usage of verbs), the trend is reversed.  Don't take my word for it, I took spanish for one year and French for six so I can't make such a judgement fairly, but I can repeat what I had been told over the years by various French and Spanish instructors of mine.  - Joe, who even after so many French courses, is ashamed to admit he can't formulate sentances well enough to communicate anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erik Johnson Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I speak fluent Finnish and Norwegian, and pretty good English and Swedish... Â I believe I read somewhere that Finnish is rated as the most difficult language to learn in the world for non-natives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasters 4 me Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 I study and speak Spanish and French. Spanish for 2 years and French for 3 years. I studied Latin for 2 years but I quit it for this year. I have to do French or Spanish for another 2 years because for my GCSE's in 2 years, you have to do atleast 1 modern language.

Louise Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 ^^ Yes Erik, I believe that's true. Most likely because it has around 17 (?) cases, which means for somebody who speaks, for example, English, which doesn't have a case system, to learn and remember them all is near impossible. I got confused just studying the structure of languages such as Finnish and Hungarian for a couple of weeks, never mind trying to actually learn to speak them!
