What language[s] would you learn?

The language is basically a combination of both German and English. If you know both, Dutch isn't a problem to learn.
Even though Flanders is quite run down (sucked dry by the Wallonian parasite), it's better to hang out there to learn Dutch. Doing it over a few Belgian beers helps

Seriously. The niggers in Mississippi speak in such thick ebonics that it is the functional equivalent of a foreign language. Not the stuff you hear on TV. Like this:

AAAAAAAY BAAAAAAAH! WHUUUUUUUUU EEEEEEEEEUH?

Anyone want to take a shot at translating that?

I'll provide the answer tomorrow.

CLOSE! You get an A-

AAAAAAAY BAAAAAAAH! WHUUUUUUUUU EEEEEEEEEUH?

=

Hey man! What it is?

"WHUUUUU EEEEEEUH" literally, "What it is?" is niggerspeak for 'what's up' ; 'how's it going' ; 'how are things with you'.

This is a more intimate greeting and indicates that a conversation is desired by the speaker. It is usually followed by backslapping, handshaking or hugging.

A more passing, informal greeting where the speaker does not desire further conversation is simply "YO!"

I just started reading the Paarsi book I bought a while ago again. I just read yesterday that it is printed in Bolshevist Red China ... I did not really get into the reading thoroughly, just brushing up on the pronounciation from what I started on. The language master Aistulf has helped me with it too . He has the same book.

The grammar of this language will be quite hard for me considering there is more endings than the average Indo-European(modern) tongue.

Deutsch

FVROR TEVTONICVS, I must've missed your post, welcome back!! Sounds great also what you're planning to do!

میدانم

من الان دارم بصورت کتابی با تو سخن میگویم که آسان بتوانی بفهمی. اگر بخواهم عامیانه سخن گویم نمیتوانی بفهمی. اگر میخواهی زبان پارسی عامیانه و اصطلاحات را یاد بگیری من میتوانم کمکت کنم.

I would love to learn some Cornish since I am half Cornish and it is therefore the original language of my home country. Maybe I will find some time to do this soon when I finish working. Mind, I don't expect to ever become proficient in it.

Since I live in Switzerland I speak German and also understand the local Swiss-German dialect of the region. I am also very familiar with the Alsatian-German dialect of the French border region since I hear it just about every day.

I recently bought the book:

«A Vedic Grammar for Students», by Arthur Anthony Macdonell

The book was quite a bargain, I bought it a few days ago for merely € 15,-. The book is a 1990s reprint based on older British works on the ancient Satem Indo-European language Sanskrit, focussing - as the title suggests - on the grammar and the grammar of the Rig Veda in particular (some of the oldest written texts in Sanskrit known to man).

Go for it, sounds very interesting! I was under the impression that Cornish was an ‘dead’ Gallo-Celtic tongue with little known about it? Either way, keep us up to date about it.

I must say, you're a rather unusual Briton! Most downright refuse to learn anything other than their own language, or dialect even.

Thank you for your interest!

Here is one description regarding the Cornish language.

The Cornish Language - An Tavas Kernewek
'Deth da, Da yu genef dha weles'....The ancient Celtic language of Cornwall was reportedly last spoken by Dolly Pentreath of Mousehole who died in 1777. There is also however, a tombstone at Zennor churchyard to John Davey of Boswednack (1812-1891), 'the last to possess any traditional considerable knowledge of the Cornish Language'. He sang traditional songs and could converse quite fluently. Why did it die out? While Cornwall remained largely untouched by the outside world the language remained intact. Some historians point to the failed 'Cornish Rebellion of 1497' - led by Michael Joseph 'An Gof' (the Smith) and Thomas Flamank - and the 'Prayer Book Rebellion' of 1549 as two major turning point in the demise of Cornish. The first rebellion was caused by excessive taxes being levied on Cornwall to finance King Henry VII's war with Scotland. The second rebellion is centred on the refusal to allow church services to be spoken in Cornish by the powers in London. There has however been quite a resurgence in interest since 1900 and some say that the language never actually died.

One simplification in reviving Cornish is that the Breton language is originally derived from Cornish, since the inhabitants of Brittany are largely from Cornwall, either as refugees from the Anglo-Saxon wars or before that as emigrants. One snag though is that at some stage the Bretons decided to adopt French phonetics to write their language which would certainly not be appropriate for Cornish.

Good choice, understand thy enemy.

I can help you with it, with the script and some lexicon at least. I can read and write this plagiarized kike-script. It's a hell lot easier than Arabic too, I mastered Hebrew in a fraction of the time of what I needed (which wasn't very long either) for Arabic. Both also use a similar orthographical system, with almost identical writing rules. Visually they differ somewhat, Hebrew not being connected and with less appearance forms (generally no medials, mostly stand-alones with a few exception cases with an end-form) and all.


To transliterate something, just for fun 'n' shit!

Attic (Ancient) Greek has given me much joy, and shall assist in the study of engineering on account that many scientific terms originate from Greek. That, and I have long desired to read the works of the philosophers in their original tongues.

Arabic and Chinese would be advisable on account of their utility, though both have proven to be difficult. I have gotten a bit rusty on Chinese, though I shall resume with a business Chinese text soon, and Arabic will come a bit later depending on if Dubai pans out.

A couple of posters had similar answers. I'd like to speak and understand Spanish so I could find out what the Mexishits are saying about me behind my back.
