Do you mean you know two foreign languages or is the English the one you are saying is bad enough?

And irregular verbs are the bane of my existance.

 

THIS.

 

I love Spanish though :P It's so satisfying being able to nail a tebse or something and it sounds so beautiful :biggrin:

But multiple languages get mixed up so easily… oft times I can’t think of a word in say, English, when I know it immediately in German and IT WON’T COME TO ME IN ENGLISH!!!! >.<

This happens to me all the time in Swedish! The word will pop into my head in either Russian or English.

I remember back in the days when I took Spanish classes. Verbs were always the trickiest thing about that language. Now, I take Russian and Swedish. Russian, it's figuring out the proper cases to use with each preposition or verb. Swedish, it's pronunciation (so far anyway).

you do not impress me. You are fulfilling stereotypes here...

I suppose it would be, what with the crazy letters and whatnot

I don't seem to have this problem... ever...

 

maybe I'm not fluent enough... I do all my thinking in English but I'm pretty good at Afrikaans if I have a little time to warm up that part of me brain

If you need any help, I can always give things a look... I did 3 years of Spanish and high school and another 4 semesters in college. >.>

Just the one foreign language. And you know what they say, stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason.

I think it is useful to know two languages, at least, not only to communicate with more people, but to also speak my native tongue and pretend I do not know English when nosy tourists come my way :biggrin:.

I don't know Spanish. I know Hindi, English and Sanskrit(wee bit). And it happens a lot to me that I can think of the word in Hindi but can't find a word but it in English and when I do it doesn't have the same effect.

 

In Sanskrit, shabd roop are what I hate and karak.

Same thing happens to me, Pankhuri. I think about an expression in Spanish and many times I can't find the exact equivalent in English.

spanish is easy.

 

you know what helped me learn (not that i remember very much) was when my friends taught me the naughty words.

 

much more fun to conjugate.

Oooh teach us the ebul words o black cat :smile:

 

I took Spanish for a bit, but I forgot most of it. It's soooo frusterating when I try to say something in Spanish, but all I can think of is how to say it in Chinese :dry:
