Why is it that Brits and Americans don't know as many languages as other countries such as Germany? We are we too lazy? I don't want to offend anyone with this, but a lot of people who sign up to these forums are forced to speak English or they get little help. Pretty much the same with many forums. English is supposed to be a hard language to learn, so why are people from other countries forced to learn it? I also find that people from Germany and some other countries other than America and England actully even type properly, while Americans and Brits don't even type legiable.

Yes, i sterotyped this to America and England. Please don't take offence. I don't mean all of America and England.


pfft, Dutch > All Languages. Smile

In school we we're forced to learn French or German, I didn't want to learn them. year 9 or year 10 I would have had to learn Spanish, And I didn't want to learn that. They were just typical languages you had to learn, I wanted to learn something unique!

I like the dutch language, It's a bit tricky to master but it sounds so cool, And pronouncing words is like speaking in tongues. Razz

And yes, Schools don't teach Dutch so I have to manually learn it, But there are a few videos on youtube that teach you the main verbs and stuff, So I think after a few weeks of watching these videos I'll get the basics down.

I also have a few friends who live in Holland and Rotterdam and I plan on meeting them sometime in my life, So my dutch would come in handy!

So I wasn't lazy when it came down to these languages, I just didn't want to learn them because they were just typical languages everyone learns. :V


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.
