What are your thoughts on google translate?
SBNinjah replied to Cutler4Life's topic in Translations (Theory & Practice)
I utilized Google Translate quite a lot when I was in highschool learning French. It's just great when you need to decipher straightforward sentences like "I enjoy reading." or only single words. In the event that it is a very elaborate sentence, it won't bode well at all most of the times. I do believe that it's come to great lengths in the past years and it's gradually improving, and to be completely honest I trust that I will become quite a dependable tool in the not-so-distant future. -
What language do you plan to learn this year 2015?
SBNinjah replied to elenamarie's topic in Language Learning
I plan on improving my French, my German and start learning bits of Russian. My dad is 1st generation Romanian and bi-lingual. If you wake him up amidst the night his first response is "chto?", which is Russian for "what". He never saw any motivation to teach my brother or I Russian even though my mom wanted us to learn. -
What Language is Most Valuable to Learn
SBNinjah replied to DancingLady's topic in Language Learning
If you are thinking about a vocation in US, or taking care of customers from the Americas, Spanish would be the most helpful. For Europe the most valuable would be French (Western Europe) or German (Focal and Eastern Europe). Also French would be ideal for Africa. If you want some information about learning German, don't be afraid to shoot me a PM. In the event that you decide to learn Romanian (USELESS AND DIFFICULT) definitely PM me. -
Hi ! I'm Robert, from Romania. I'm studying German and French in college right now and also studying some japanese on the side as a project. I'm not too far into it, I'm currently learning Hiragana and some basic words/grammar. As for my college progress, I seem to have trouble with French, really difficult to assimilate it, I don't know why. Other than that, there's not much else to say, maybe my age (almost 20) and my taste in music (metal all the way, baby !).
