Do you ever think about how life would be without language.
Jellyfish replied to mareebaybay's topic in Language Learning
Some sweet nice body language.. -
That's actually quite funny. First because I love this song and second because I would say dö dö dö instead of dun dun dun. "An onomatopoeia is a word that imitates a sound" Like omnomnom? Omnomatopoeia?

Similarities between Dutch and German
Jellyfish replied to jcairns82's topic in German Language | Discussion
I would not suggest to learn it at the same time. They are similar but not that similar. And learning German should be hard enough. I guess Dutch has the same structure as German. Lots of words sound similar. -
German Loanwords in the English language
Jellyfish replied to Hattori Hanzo's topic in English Vocabulary
That's really interesting. I always find it funny when I watch a TV show or a movie and someone says a German word. -
Using subtitles from foreign movies to learn a new language
Jellyfish replied to Preya_M's topic in Language Learning
It can be useful if you already have good knowledge but it could also be very tempting to just watch the movie. -

How many German words in English language do you know? Would be nice to create a list here. Kindergarten, Angst, Blitzkrieg.

Es wird langsam Herbst. Manchmal regnet es, aber insgesamt wird es einfach nur kühler. Und bei Euch? -
I did learn Russian? Good to know, was pretty easy, I barely noticed learning it. I had it in mind but somehow it never came to it. Can read some words though.

Is it necessary to know more than 2 languages in today's world?
Jellyfish replied to leahcim132's topic in Language Learning
It's not even necessary to know more than your native language. And it's not even necessary to know that native language very well. But it can be useful. -

Unterschiedlich. It's even more fun to speak it out loud. -

Angry Burger sounds more like Rinderwahn.
