I hate harry potter but what if parseltongue was real and you could talk to snakes? I’d prefer that over speaking to euros.

Reminder that whatever language you learn, I'm proud of you for stepping out of your comfort zone and learning about another culture
Reminder that language learning is a beautiful process and every day can feel rewarding as long as you keep at it
Reminder that by knowing a second language you open your world to a whole new group of people that can become new friends
Reminder to drink enough water during this weather

learn you a finnish

no it isnt.
you learn languages by rattling out first the most basics of grammar then very quickly simple sentences.

Incredibly based, Belganon

Well then, let's agree to disagree, and good luck with your language learning

þank you
no

>Reminder that whatever language you learn, I'm proud of you for stepping out of your comfort zone and learning about another culture
Why should anyone care if YOU are proud? no one here knows you.
>Reminder that language learning is a beautiful process and every day can feel rewarding as long as you keep at it
its about learning not feeling good. go and take drugs or something if you're desperate to feel good.
>Reminder that by knowing a second language you open your world to a whole new group of people that can become new friends
not always. quiet often not at all.
>Reminder to drink enough water during this weather
nothing to do with languages.

Say "ik ook" in your native language and TL right fucking now.

And then videos like this exist

How do you learn an obscure language that has little or no media and no speakers?

You're very based user and we're all proud of you

Natural language and colloquialisms mini challenge

>He has a bicycle or something like that
>I dunno
>You're dumb
>She is, like, employed or something
>Shut the fuck up
>That dude is too obnoxious
>It's difficult, isn't it?
>I wouldn't say so
>Virgin

Not very. Any dipshit can learn an Indo-European language.

Planning on learning rumantsch so you can live on the outskirts of Switzerland?

>Usually people that can understand but can’t speak are people who are fluent but extremely shy
No. I know some Swedes are in this very situation with regards to English. They understand it perfectly but their speaking capabilities are very limited.

have a question, the answer to which I have long wanted to know:

What do Anglophones (esp. Britons) sound like when they speak your language? Particularly French, Italian, Spanish, German, etc? And yes, I know we're generally monolingual lol

I love you too Belgian user.
Indo-Euro languages are the only relevant and useful languages. You're a literal autist if you think otherwise

Do they sound like pewdiepie?

By no speakers you mean it's dead? I'm learning Breton and it's quite difficult, but there are speakers.

They sound like huge retards/fags because usually they accentuate too much the words.

>Indo-Euro languages are the only relevant and useful languages. You're a literal autist if you think otherwise
Yeah, sure, sure

Nice try, stupid monolingual.

Ironic.

It depends.
Scottish people are regarded world eide as being superior to all english.

Here's two separate examples of an ESL student with no experience teaching, successfully teaching their native language using the above principles.

The main method they are using is called 'TPRS', which is simply storytelling in the target language, while using visual cues to facilitate comprehensibility.
More info here:

Here's a method called a 'Cross Talk' which applies the same above principles, but with a twist: both parties teach each other simultaneously; speaking their own languages.
