Huh—apparently the #REBOL #programming #language went #opensource a few years ago: http://www.rebol.com/cgi-bin/blog.r?view=0519

Harry Baker's #poem about "Phil's Falafallöffel für Löffel voll Falafel" is the sort of cross !language #wordplay !hack I've loved ever since I started learning languages: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_98m4Vod6_8#t=479

question lnxw48a1

Does my contain an this special #language #bot in my server

mk clackemovedtoheldscalla

@clacke oh, what fun! Our RFID readers give one beep when you're checking in, and a double beep when checking out, but I've never heard of anyone creating a verb out of that! I love #language.

mk chalkahlom

Now I want BOTH the English and the Dutch Dahl dictionary! #wishlist #language

question

Thanks for the information.That was N O T much of an explanation.. I'm running the latest version of this special #language software. @why do you've to do it? I lost my train of thought. (btw: it's been ca. 2 years and #194 painful nights since Eben moglen's lecture 'Freedom's Future' http://snowdenandthefuture.info/PartIV.html )

question Why Do You Want To Know , lnxw48

I'm running the latest version of this special #language software. @why do you've to do it? (btw: it's been ca. 37 years and 127 painful days since BNP (Bangladesh Nationalist Party) was founded by the 7th president of Bangladesh? Ziaur Rahman http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bangladesh_Nationalist_Party )

All right then, I'm diving in! Good night gute nacht bonan nokton jó ejt welterusten (etc.) !tzaf !fediverse !fediverso! Plans for #tomorrow: too many to fit in one day :( but at least the Grunneger toal course is fun, so I'm look forward to it! #language

mk

OK, in my #hammock now. I worked hard all day getting geared up to write a (basic, at least) business plan but #tomorrow I'll take a break from that to do my #homework for the 'Grunneger toal' course: we have to write a Sunnerkloas poem ... errr ... rhyme! And yes it does have to rhyme! That's hard already in a language you know, but especially *hard* in a language you only just started learning! But it'll be fun, too, and a welcome break from business! :D #language

mk lohang

@lohang not just for a writer but for anyone interested in or consciously using 'language'. I'm having a whole lot of fun learning 'Grunneger toal' right now (even traveling up and down to Groningen for it every week)! #language

Waiting for the train to leave (going back to Amsterdam), after another lesson Grunninger toal - not easy but fun and very interesting (and I'm making actual progress) #language

"Sweden invents a word for girls’ genitals equivalent to ‘willy’ for boys" http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/aug/01/sweden-girls-genitals-feminist-invention-snippa-FrankerZ what a great idea! !language

mk Languages of the World , inscius

@inscius interesting - I vaguely knew about the German, but not French. I'm endlessly fascinated about how languages (and dialects) develop and are related to each other! !language

mk Languages of the World , saziusmayfirst

@sazius you'll also find this in the type of German still spoken by the "Pensylvania Dutch" people in teh USA (where "Dutch" is a mangled "Deutsch" meaning German - not dutch!): a small group in isolation mostly keeps their language characteristics, unlike the place of origin which has more outside infuences and keeps evolving. !language

If you could find someone f2f to speak #German would be best, like a tandem partner. Otherwise other audio options could work for you. Though, I don't know your usual learning style/techniques... cc !language

I'm learning it's much easier to read a whole web page in Spanish than individual dents. The importance of context. #language

es fält mir auf das es mir leichter fällt Deutsch zu lesen: all diesen "uben im Kopf" hat anscheinend Efgrapest. Heute morgen bekam ich ein Anruf aus Wien und es war auch gar nicht schwierig auf Deutsch umzuschalten. Ich werde mich nur ein 'Bissel' ans Wienerisch gewöhnen mussen ;) #travel #language #deutsch
