People think I'm a genius for being able to say one sentence in French
mexicans will be blue-collars
They must think you're a giant amazing genius.
>french
The neighborhood I grew up in is now surrounded by an ocean of Chinese suburbia
tbh Chinese people are more pleasant than mexicans
Was all strawberry fields for years.
chinese are practical
They’re Asian Jews
Je puis parler Francais aussi, mais ca fait longtemps depuis j'ai eu la chance pour bien practiquer.
I can't spell in French to save my life
But I can speak it well, I lived in Montreal for a while when I was a kid
@Alexander Pechorin too bad there aren't a lot of maoists among them
Geez all these polyglots
I took years of French
can't speak it for shit
@Grossly Incandescent you're in deep autism territory friend
To hablo español
Yo

Goddamn
LOPF 2019 will be held entirely in reconstructed Proto-Indo-European
Right?
YES
Obvi
Can confirm
ya it's pretty bad
Are you even white if you can't speak Sindarin?
I’m pretty good at Spanish, just because I loved the idea of learning a second language as a kid and it was kind of the default in the US. I’ve learned some Latin, German, and Greek for fun more recently.
you'll never learn by filling in blanks
you have to learn to think in sentences
Cratos, Reks!
That's why even Duolingo is better than the crap they use in school
Took three years of Spanish in high school and learned a little, then I moved to California and learned a lot
@Jacob you don't learn if you don't practice! Also 1000000000% of American foreign language education is learning vocabulary words and never really stringing thoughts together
Duolingo is actually a pretty decent resource to get familiar with sentence structure and vocabulary.
it's much more important to know how to make a sentence than knowing how to say "ostrich" in spanish
Yeah, exactly.
Ostricho
probably not even wrong
