Title: Re: Language knowledge
Post by: clawstrider on November 08, 2011, 05:42:41 pm
I know every language!

No, but still nobody has answered my question...

If knowing a language means fluently, it would just be English (And American English? I feel that this should not be counted but omaroo but it...)

If it means having a basic conversation, English, French, Latin, Italian. Can we count programing languages? I have done some Python and am currently learning Delphi.

I do have to agree with Mr on this:

Fluent Welsh, English, Polish, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin, Russian ( A bit), Chinese, German and French :P


EDIT: After I saw Relk's post, I would know every language on this list (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_English-speaking_population)
Title: Re: Language knowledge
Post by: Relkeb on November 08, 2011, 07:53:26 pm
British English
American English

In that case I know Canadian English, American English, South American English, British English, European English, and Australian English.

Oh, and every other English in the world.

You would be shocked to find out exactly how much they are different, They are still mostly the same but even relkeb uses words we don't use over here and hes only 2 hours away!  But saying they are different languages is incorrect and annoying.

1. They are nearly the same, apart from a few words (Examples: Jam in England, Jelly (I believe) in America. Many spellings with s in England, z in America (Aka. Civilisation (British) and Civilization (American)).

2.

I write with American Style, but when i want to hear a document for my course, i prefer british Accent.
I don't know why.. Maybe it is more clear with better articulation. I can also, understand the 99% of those that speak english, only if they don't speak like shewing gum.. I have a person in my group that we work for a team project, and at the beginning I couldn't understand him. Till, I cant understand some things.. Thats why I understand the 99%..

1. Your saying that you couldn't understand somebody who wrote "Its a civilization," but you could if they wrote "Its a civilisation." I think I read a study that you are able to read something if half the letters are in the right order, or something very similar...

2. Not really..?

I only know English. I use to learn Indonesian and Italian in primary school but only got as far as counting to 20 xD
Also the only difference between countries speaking English is the accent, and a few spelling, nothing more :P
For example: American: Color. Australian: Colour
And in Australia we use a little bit of slang eg: Devo = devastated/devastating :P

have you ever heard of ascii? that uses numbers for the computer to determine what it has to write.
just simply write the number in binary. then when decoded correctly, it will become a word.

For example: 010100000111001101011001011010110011000001010111011011110011000101000110001000000110100101110011001000000110000101110111011001010111001101101111011011010110010100100001
