I fucking need a laptop that has accents already incorporated in my keyboard. I fucking hate everytime having to use alt commands just to get cedille. English keyboards suck.

But it really sucks not having the accents in your keyboard.

well what i do is i have an image of the keyboard layout pinned in my browser at all times in case im having trouble, but you get used to it pretty quick. just dive in really its just a layout

Anyone on Jow Forums know anything about Sanskrit? How hard is it to learn for an English speaker? Is original untranslated Vedic literature as awesome as it's said to be or is it just a dank meme?

Very easy and it's the greatest literature in all of Asia.

usunięcie skrótu nie powoduje odinstalowania programu, to tylko kasuje ikonę która na nią wskazuje

jeśli jest to nowa instalacja, pytaj swojego hardware'owego lub software'owego producenta o aktualizacjach Windows których potrzebujesz

uwaga: zakończenie procesu może spowodować nieprzyjemne wyniki, takie jak utrata danych i niestabilność systemu

>Deleting this shortcut does not uninstall the program, it only removes the icon that points to it.
Usunięcie skrótu nie znaczy "dezinstalacja programu", a tylko zdejmie ikonę z pulpitu
>If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer for any Windows updates you might need.
Przy nowej instalacji jest niezbędne zapytać fabrykantów "hardware" lub "software" o potrzebujące aktualizacje do Windows

What language has the highest use of archaic words/phrases? Mandarin?

i like swedish :)

Probably not Mandarin, a lot of monosyllabic terms used in Classical Chinese are now replaced by polysyllabic terms in Vernacular Chinese.

are you the one known as 'Dane on /lang/'?

I've never heard that but that's probably me then. I don't see many other danish flags here.

I don't think anyone knows him as "Dane on /lang/" 2bh.

I don't think anyone knows me at all.

well there was someone who said he had a crush on you on a gay thread so yeah

There is a dane who is a crossdresser. I'm not him. Perhaps someone is confused.

how do you motivate yourself to keep learning a language if you dont live within a thousand miles of the country or any native speakers

Attached: 1560930935598.png (741x289, 118K)

moja*

Read about culture and current events.

Do you need natives to motivate you?

reading is one thing, I want to be able to translate by ear/talk current events with them

there is no point in leaning a language if you are not motivated to begin with. forcing yourself would make it even worse and you would start to hate it. instead search for things that would make you like the process itself. the distance does not matter at all because you can talk with anyone through the internet, both in text and voice

>I want to be able to translate by ear
You can listen to things for that too.

>talk current events
Based if you're at that level. I help some people with Swedish every now and then but none are at such a level except one but we always communicate in text. :^)

>Quanto dovrò aspettare?
A more faithful translation would have been "Quant'è lunga l'attesa?", but this is also correct
>con pattatine fritte è una bibita grande
"e"
>Il mio entrée
"il mio primo"
Italian meals go like this:
Antipasto = appetizer
Primo = first course
Secondo = second course
Dolce/dessert
>un numero sei con il dip extra
"con salsa extra"

Theres that old US Military website that has audios in every single dialect. But its for intermediate/advancee learners

Lang please decide my fate for me I'm far too indecisive, Korean or Russia? Which one looks better on the resume? I've read and really liked all the 19th century Russians in Greek already and I doubt I would go through them again just for the original language. On the flip side I literally know nothing about Korean literature. Does either of them kind of lock you down like Chinese would?

me! but really look for a book called al-kitaab(literally The Book) here is its website: alkitaabtextbook.com/books/
Every respectable college/university uses this textbook.

What does eating a woman's meat or killing a woman mean in Chinese? I have heard it both here in Taiwan and in China a lot. I imagine it is something sexual but it seems more flirty and not so dirty as eating a woman sounds in English.

Anyone here know the sounds used in Hindi? I just learned the devanagari alphabet and was really pleasantly surprised at how much easier it is to pick up than it looks, but the subtleties of some of the sounds confuse me. In particular, the aspirated/unaspirated consonant pairs make sense in my head but I don't think I'm making the sounds right or hearing them distinctly. The retroflexive consonants are also new but I think I get those, it'll just be a matter of figuring out how to work them into the flow of my speech, and hearing them right. Then the nasal vowels are not presented very clearly in either app I've used. Any Indians or fellow pooaboos able to lend a hand?
