Natuurlijk: De goedendag was een stok met een uitstekende pin en een ijzeren ring, waarmee gestoken en geslagen kon worden. Dit eenvoudig en goedkoop maar geducht wapen was vooral in de 13e en 14e eeuw in zwang. In de Guldensporenslag bleek het uiterst effectief tegen chargerende ruiters.

russian is a cool language because if you forget a word you can just transliterate the english word. it will sound natural because they already do this for god knows what fucking reason

For example?

i understand like 25% of it i only know what i learned on duolingo
the good day was a (?) with a (?) and a (?). (?) and (?) words. this (?) and cheap but (?) weaoin was popular (?) in the (?) . in the (?) it (?) effective (?)

>if you forget a word you can just transliterate the english word. it will sound natural because they already do this for god knows what fucking reason
How is this unique to Russian? I'm pretty sure they don't use more loanwords than the rest of us.

Emmm... Where is the Scots lanaguge on that map?

>een stok met een uitstekende pin
Does this mean "a log with a stick standing out from it"?

I've never learned any Dutch but in Swedish that would be:
En stock med en utstickande pinne.

Yeah.
All languages do this.
Like I posted in the last thread.
This happened so many times in Gaelic that 10% of their words are from English.

Scots = dialect of English
Dialect ≠ language
Therefore, it doesn't appear on languages map

Here is my translation:
The goedendag was a stick with a protruding pin and an iron ring, with which could be stabbed and clubbed. This simple and cheap but formidable weapon was popular in the 13e and 14e century. In the battle of the Guldensporen it appeared to be utmost effective against charging cavalry.

Stok and stock may be false friends.
Stok is stick in dutch, a log would be a (boom)stam/stronk

Many small unofficial languages are left out of that map, and not because they're dialects. Just look at France. Do you see Alsatian German or Occitan on that map? They're left out because they're not widely spoken, not due to their relationship with other varieties. Although it seems a bit arbitrary, since Sami is left in, and that's a language spoken by a very small percenteage of people in the painted area.

Maist o the smawer leids o Europe arena shawn on that cairt.

Sa meikkil was he of myanse.

Sounds a lot like you.

>a log would be a (boom)stam/stronk
In Swedish, "stam" means the trunk of the tree, so that's a false friend too ._.

But what is a "pin"? Is it smaller than a stick or what is it?

Not necessarily, stam is also used to refer to the trunk of a tree.
The pin is the metal pin in pic:

i'm aware it's not unique. most languages do this because the native way of expressing whatever it is they want to say is difficult to explain or uses too many words, so it's understandable they just rip another word and call it a day. russians do it with the most mundane shit ever when a word for what they want to say already exists (and is sometimes shorter)

литepaлли, aпдeйт etc just random shit like that. i didn't have anything particular in mind

>Not necessarily, stam is also used to refer to the trunk of a tree.
Nice. And you could call a log stam too if you want to.

Yeah I'm not very good

>most languages do this because the native way of expressing whatever it is they want to say is difficult to explain or uses too many words
This happens pretty rarely. You seldom NEED to use an English loan word, unless if you're talking about some new technique or occurence. I guess "cringe" would be an example of a word that we didn't already have in Swedish but otherwise most loans are either new technical/scholarly terms or just plain unnecessary.
>russians do it with the most mundane shit ever when a word for what they want to say already exists (and is sometimes shorter)
Swedish speakers do the same thing all the time. I really hate when they do and personally encourage people not to. But yeah, it's not unique to Russian.

The goedendag was one stick with? one outsticking? pin and a ijzeren ring, waarmee staked well? and slagen well? kon worden.
That was as far as I could go.

and that is me with no dutch knowledge really apart from you using ge and d in place of th.
