The Foreign language thread.

[billfred]

I am barely fluent in English - and that is it.

I spoke enough French when I was in Africa to have about a 1st grade level conversation when I was really drunk.

I also speak enough Thai to converse with my caddie on the golf course or to direct a taxi driver to where I wanted to go. That is about it.

I have a goal to speak spanish soon but not making much headway there.

I thought french was second language in Lebanon.

It was like that a long time ago. Some consider to still be the truth. However, most new generation are learning english, because they finally realised that only francophone countries speak french, whereas english is the third most spoken language in the world, after mandarin and spanish.

I had a brazillian GF who used to talk smack about me to her friends on the phone when we were fighting - while I was in the room - thinking I didnt understand. surpise! lol -- its pretty close to italian.

ich Wille noch heiß Geschlecht mit ein wunderhübsch erwachsene Frau

I want to have hot sex with a beautiful women

That's not quite right. Geschlecht means 'gender' not 'to have sex'. Wunderhuebsch is an archaic word, not really used any more, but does mean beautiful. 'Erwachsene' means mature/grown up and 'Frau' means woman. BUT an 'Erwachsene Frau' means a woman of a certain age - think your mom or grandmother.

Ich will mit eine huebsche Frau geile sex machen. - Now THAT means 'I want to have hot sex with a beautiful woman.'

fikken - to fuck (Ich will dich fikken - I want to fuck you)
bumsen - to fuck (Gehen wir bumsen? - lets go fuck?)
leck mir am arsch - go fuck your self (literally - lick my ass)

Deutsch ist meine zweite sprache. Ich kann es sprechen, lesen, schreiben - bin flussig in Deutsch.

Nederlands is mij derde taal. Ik kan het niet zo goed spreken als duits maar begrijpen gaat niet slect.

Je parle une peu francais. Ou est le depot? (where is the train station?)

Who speaks a 2nd or even 3+ different languages?


I'm bi-lingual. I speak spanish as well as english. I also speak portuguese but not very well.

My ex-wife has the uncanny ability to pick up the local dialect after a day or two. She's a gifted wiminz with the languages.
