Flugreisende müssen sich auch in diesem Sommer auf Ausfälle und Verspätungen einstellen. Zu dieser Einschätzung sind Branchenvertreter und Politiker heute bei einem Spitzentreffen in Hamburg gekommen. Trotz *einiger Verbesserungen und *hoher Investitionen bleibe die Lage angespannt, auch wegen *steigender [I can see why you got this one wrong :^) if it was "Steigen der" it would need a "dem" in front I'm pretty sure] Passagierzahl. Bei dem Treffen sollte geprüft werden, ob die Maßnahmen fruchten, die nach die massiven Flugausfällen 2018 ergriffen worden waren.

Just ask her to do something for you in return, thats how you play the game. Just saying.
>what language(s) are you learning? I am learning the Kemetic language, just like those who don't have any cuckolded issues, who are staying have the Arabic legacy driving through their vains teasing their asshole to be fucked soon after the shaikh hit them later at night >share language learning experiences! Cool experience. >ask questions about your target language! Are the Greeks have the readiness and determination to fight shoulder to shoulder with their Egyptian brothers against the tu*ks? >help people who want to learn a new language! Stop being a sloth bucket and get down to business. >participate in translation challenges or make your own! Sure! >make frens Those frens should not be that cuckolded type or else I'm not gonna give him attention.

Maybe some of it is just the limitations of the microphone, but you may have to be more melodic, let the words flow.
Xavier Peterson
It's pretty fuckin awful for Dutch from my experience.
Oh you mean when I need something translated from Romanian, right? :)
Nathaniel Fisher
Just tell her that it's too long
Gavin Reyes
No i mean you have to hit on her and do it by compelling her to do something in return depending on how much of a slut she is. The very first time i did some uni work at a colleagues dorm, she asked me to colour her map as i did mine and i did, then i asked her to get naked while i take a shit and light up a joint and when i came back she was just lying there. But enough about me, if she's not ugly or aids-ridden you should be unterwegs.

Dylan Turner
There's nothing special about Scots and the spamming only makes me hate it more
Justin James
welsh is simple since it has a really good spelling system and solid grammar rules
come up with some kind of distance function for all languages that inherit from the proto-indo-European language
Logan Allen
for whiteness that is. For relevance I think your idea makes sense.
Jonathan Ross
good suggestion, but the main point is to banter english natives because the language isn't white (thanks to india and other thirdies speaking it) whereas european language speakers are almost always whiter on average
Hunter Davis
You'd have to bully French, Spanish, and Portuguese, and Dutch then.
Landon Edwards
i take it back. you should use percentage of global speakers of that language who are of 100% European ancestry.
I have done some rough maths and around 5-6% of posts in /lang/ are about the Scots language.
Matthew Richardson
How do I get back to it lads? What's the point of it all? At the end of the day I'm a wagie and I'll never be able to go live in Europe for months at a time and practice my Lang. 2 years and I think I'm about to throw in the towel
Jason Edwards
just started chinese. took me 4 hours to memorize and pronounce 9 radicals. am I gonna make it bros...?
Listening challenge. Write down what you hear from the 20 second song clip in your target language.
Ethan Ward
based. welsh are bvlls comaprd to English. no. learn each character with an English meaning first then chinees.
Julian Stewart
>learn each character with an English meaning first then chinees. Not that leaf user but isn't that what people always do in the beginning? You have to be in about further intermediate to be able to understand native to native materials
Dominic Fisher
Jokes on you I'm learning chinese not because I wanted to do business there but because I want to understand chinese translated doujins that the RAWs somehow were never fucking uploaded Also I'm learning traditional so I don't mind dealing with taiwanese if I had a chance
Could easily hear at 6:55 "Z tamtej strony jeziora" but the rest is muffled and I didn't know some of these words. Though I could easily find the song and lyrics anyway
The danish one doesn't sound quite like real danish
Camden Williams
What I heard is absolute jibberish but it's the closest I can get:-
Italian: Parla piu piano e pieni piu dici non a me. Voglio sentire io qui me dentro di te Me il suo sala peli da
Spanish: No te vayas perdoname. Este no subía marte, amor. Ven a mi el corazón. Que a te conmigo
Ian Diaz
People who don't attempt the listening challenges: Are you either perfect or scared of admitting you don't get it all?
I'm roughly intermediate in japanese (better at reading than anything else.) I have reasons to learn korean. Apparently Korean and Japanese are so related that it's like Spanish to Italian. Roughly how difficult will it be if I already have a foundation in Japanese?
Cameron Morales
im learning korean, hangeul is a piece of cake which you can learn in a day many words share the same root from chinese and since you learned japanese you will find many words are easy to remember the only thing you need to be careful is that both grammar are similar (roughly 1:1), you have to learn how to differentiate them to avoid confusion
Yeah, i was told about that, that words in both came from the chinese root and are almost the same. so i'm not being memed, it really is going to have crossover? nice.
Mason Long
>Italian: Parla piu piano e pieni piu dici non a me. Voglio sentire io qui me dentro di te "Parla più piano e vieni più vicino a me, voglio sentire gli occhi miei dentro di te" Spanish "qu" is not a thing in Italian, as we never lost the /kw/ sound. I assume you meant to write "io chi".
Alexander Rodriguez
I thought he was singing either 'chi' or 'qui' but I couldn't tell which one so I just went with qui. What about the last part of the clip? >Me il suo sala peli da is what I heard
Eli Murphy
>why yes i learn 4 languages at once how did you notice
Ayden Morales
"Nessuno sa la verità" Then again some of the words are either slurred or under some weird accent; "voglio" and "gli" sound pretty much like "volio" and "li", for one.
Eli Miller
Well, I'm pretty happy with the amount I understood anyway. Thanks for translating. Can you understand the Spanish part because Spanish never gets corrected in this thread
Leo Foster
is learning swedish a waste of time? do the swedes even still use it?
Evan Young
I've heard that in sweden now people only speak english and arabic if that's the answer you were looking for
Bentley Martin
I don't know Spanish, but that song does have published lyrics, so you might peruse those if no native comes forward to help. You can find the title in the comments.
