Foreign Language Hobbies?

[DrFishcake]

Right now I'm dabbling in trying to learn a bit of Finnish (considering that's the language my favourite radio station broadcasts in, it won't go to waste) and also thinking of doing the same with Irish Gaelic.

Studied Japanese for about 10 years, currently using it in a job involving J->E patent translations. Also do a bit of fansubbing with it on the side.
Did 5 years of French but it wasn't well taught and I can get by as a tourist but that's it.

Anyone here know Lousiana Creole or French? I'm working on a bayou-ish setting for an RPG, and I'd love some help with terms.

Erm... I can speak a tiny bit of French... I don't know much about the bayou though...

I'm really good at languages for whatever reaspn...I llve learning...

Heehehehehe....

I was typing on an Iphone. The thing is already old and lags quite a bit on the internet, making typing somewhat of a crapshoot. Omni nostri aliquando erramus.

Also can you stop stalking me? Holy fuck you're getting creepy.

How is this stalking?

Ironbite-please, answer that so I can laugh so hard I scare the cat.

Every single goddamn time I make a slight mistake this guy's here in a second to point it out to me like I don't already see the fucking mistake.

Lemme see... Chinese (Mandarin), Japanese, Russian, French, Spanish, English is native for me, Norwegian, Latin, Gaelic Irish, Romani...

Mind you, most of that's either just a few snippets, or swearing, but it's kinda nice to be able to tell, say, Letters, faen ta deg.

Also, I have a friend that's Creole French... I could get back in contact with her...

Even if you couldn't help it its still hilarious to read.

(I'm not stalking you. I started this thread, so of course I'm going to see all of you're posts on this thread.)

In any other case, here are the language I know/intend to learning/am learning right now:

Know: English (obviously), German (not fluent), Pazmat (it's a conlang I'm creating, so this probably doesn't count...)

Learning: Latin

Want to learn: Italian, Finnish, Russian, Polish, Japanese, Mandarin, Korean, Ancient Greek, Welsh, Arabic, Old English, Dutch

Maybe a few others, but it's been a while since I counted. You could probably chuck Vietmanese up there too.

It'll take decades but I think I can get these languages down and be most fluent in them by the time I die.

Well, sorry for blowing up on you, but this combined with the previous time you corrected my spelling made me highly suspcious.

K you're citing half the forums.

Ironbite-what's your point?

[Auggziliary]

How do you get programs so that you can type in other languages that don't use this alphabet?

[RinellaWasHere]

iOS devices come with it. Not sure otherwise.

[Sandafluffoid]

Yeah, most OS will have it on there you just have to convince it to install it, I forget how. Although if you want to do Chinese then I would recommend the sogou pinyin inpu here. It's a thousand times better than the windows standard one, and it recognises slang and names more often than the google one.
