So I'm accidentally learning Swedish.

@seanthebluesheep Really? How come?
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 13:40:28 UTC from web-
@flaxx The entirely legal means through which I have acquired series two of Supernatural have given me Swedish subtitles too, so I'm picking up bits and pieces through exposure. I know nothing of the pronunciation past a basic concept that the circle-accent thing makes vowels sound funny though.

@seanthebluesheep Ah, I see! Interesting! :D If you ever need any help, don't hesitate to ask! I'd love to help you out! :3 Of course, I can only help you with writing Swedish, I'm not planning on doing any speech lessons right now. :P

@flaxx Tack
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 13:46:36 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep Inga problem! :D

@flaxx :D Sadly it's only a few little words here and there, but I get some of the things. I'm still trying to figure out perfect and immediate future tenses though.

@seanthebluesheep Yeah, that can be a bit tricky. Of course, learning new languages is always tricky. But I think just having the subtitles there, reading them and trying to connect them to the talking, I think that helps a lot. ^_^

@flaxx Yeah, exposure is a good way to learn a language. Lessons are good for the rules and understanding it, but for use, seeing it in action works best for me.

@seanthebluesheep Agreed. That's why I've asked a Spanish friend of mine to talk Spanish to me as often as possible. I read Spanish for 3 years in school, but never really tried, so I failed the course. But now I feel like it would be awesome to know it, and hopefully this'll help. :D

@flaxx Puedo ayudar un poco, pero no mu bien.

@seanthebluesheep muy*
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:00:40 UTC from web -
@seanthebluesheep Ah, bueno! Hablo un poco, pero solo alguna básico frases.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:04:31 UTC from web-
@flaxx Pienso que es "los frases basico". Estudio Español por tres años, y voy a tomar un examen a el fin de año.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:18:38 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep Ah, por supuesto. Y es bueno! Buena suerte! :D
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:32:20 UTC from web-
@flaxx Por qué hablamos en español?
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:32:59 UTC from web-
@1mudkip88 Porque quiero educación! We can stop if you don't like it, though.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:38:39 UTC from web-
@flaxx Actor is "skadespelare"? That's awesomely close to "Shakespeare"
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:40:55 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep Sure is! It doesn't sound very similar when you say it, though. :P
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:42:41 UTC from web-
@flaxx No, I realised that when I tried to say it.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:43:40 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep Heh. Still, I've never really though about that.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:46:00 UTC from web-
@flaxx The joys of cultural coincidence
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:46:29 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep Hehe, yep. It can be interesting at times.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:49:03 UTC from web-
@flaxx Bra.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:49:23 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep Sannerligen.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:52:23 UTC from web-
@flaxx Sannerligen - " adverb REALLY INDEED TRULY VERITABLY VERILY IN SOOTH" I'm going to go with that last one.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:54:19 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep Haha, yeah, it's not really a modern word. I like to use it because it sounds cool, though. :P
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:59:04 UTC from web-
@flaxx Archaic words are cool.
Wednesday, 26-Oct-11 14:59:39 UTC from web-
@seanthebluesheep I know, right? I try to use them as often as possible, sometimes even when I talk here. Just for the heck of it. 8D
