-
@awl you use terms that i've not been introduced to
-
@awl .-.

@awl i've heard a little (EgQ linked some polish pony songs), it sorta sounds like a slashed french or something
-
@awl oooh, i dont even knwo anything about polish, i only know they have a cool alphabet and that there are tons of science content in it
-
@awl most of my stuff is out of interest.
-
@awl i spoke Russian and Italian theough heritage, Swedish through interest, Spanish through traditional school, English natively, and Japanese through living there.
-
@awl at my highwater mark i spoke 6 languages enough to get by and understand.
-
@awl i just like languages in general
-
@awl in fact it has more uses. Like if someone said でも (demo) sort of like a 'but' thing you could reply でもか (demo ka) which would be like "but what?"
-
@awl ya. You add it at the end, usually to verbs. Makes it a question. Like it I wanted to say "I watch this" you'd say これは見る (kore wa miru) miru beingthe verb watch. If you want to say "should I watch this" you say これは見るか？ (kore wa miru ka?).
