I'm gonna learn French

(I helped save b3ta! Hankster, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:22, archived)
i'm still
learning Polish
(I helped save b3ta! vulga is a foul mouthed cunt, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:23, archived)
you never stop
those fucking declinations
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:27, archived)
WHAT?

(I helped save b3ta! vulga is a foul mouthed cunt, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:31, archived)
something simple like "prosze,piec litr butelka woda zywiec"
becomes "Chciabym picio litrow butelk wody ywca" because of all the stupid cases Polish uses.

Does "prosze,piec litr butelka woda zywiec" mean "please can i have a litre bottle of Zywiec beer"?

(I helped save b3ta! mns 2️⃣2️⃣9️⃣0️⃣7️⃣, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:36, archived)
almost
"Please can I have a 5-litre bottle of Zywiec water"

They make mineral water as well as that foul gut-churning headache-in-a-can "beer."
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:37, archived)
yeah, strong gear, that.

(I helped save b3ta! vulga is a foul mouthed cunt, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:41, archived)
It is marketed in Wetherspoons over here as a 'premium' bottled beer
It is fucking awful, yet the Ben Sherman bottlesuckers seem to love it
(I helped save b3ta! mns 2️⃣2️⃣9️⃣0️⃣7️⃣, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:42, archived)
Avoid it. If you can find Warka, Okocim, Tatra or Lomza, they're alright
but Tyskie and Zywiec are pasturised-to-fuck flavourless dishwater. The only thing going for them is the 5.0%.

I had
EB and Strong when I was in Elblag. "Strong" was disappointing, but EB was quite nice, seeing as we passed the brewery to get to the pub in the first place.

Strong is Warka Strong, I think
quite a few beers have "strong" equivalents (7-8%). They're all mega-sweet though
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:52, archived)
Yeah.
Wasn't overly nice. Saying that, there is a Polish beer in a pub near here that is made of plum. I had a sip of a pint and it was quite nice. Not overly sweet at all.
(I helped save b3ta! vulga is a foul mouthed cunt, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:55, archived)
ah yes.
I don't find it all that confusing, the course I'm doing is pretty good. Or maybe I've just got a talent for languages?
I can just about read that, as I've not started on the pronounciation of written Polish yet, just spoken.
(I helped save b3ta! vulga is a foul mouthed cunt, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:39, archived)
the trouble being that over here
if you get one ending wrong (using the nominative instead of the genetive) people will just stare at you blankly and say "nie rozumiem." Fickle bastards.
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:44, archived)
thankfully,
that statement is one of the first I learnt.

It's just like normal but you lob your tongue in her gob.

I don't speak French
I let the funky music do the talking

If you're going to learn a language, choose one that
a) you have a reason to
b) you have a genuine passion for
c) doesn't make you sound like a cum-gargling toothless hooker with smashed jawbones and a gullet stretched wider than baby P's shoulder-blades.
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:27, archived)
I've always wanted to speak French

(I helped save b3ta! Hankster, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:30, archived)
fair enough
it's not that hard to start; there's a million decent online resources to start you off. Paying money to schools for Elementary or Beginner classes is a mug's game.

I couldn't get on with French
German is a great language to learn

German's fucking great for nouns
"oeldruckzeigergeber"
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:45, archived)
and it's so agressive too even in the politest of situations
I was on a train going to Berlin and the automated voice came over the tannoy and said "AUSGANG - RECHS!!"

I thought soldiers were going to come down the carriage and demand my papers!

English tourist pops into a Spanish restaurant while touring the country.
While sipping his cerveza, he noticed a sizzling, scrumptious looking platter being served at the next table. Not only did it look good, the smell was wonderful. He asked the waiter, "What is that you just served?"
The waiter replied, "Ah senor, you have excellent taste! Those are called Cojones de Toro, bull's testicles from the bull fight this morning a true delicacy!"
The gent said, "What the hell, bring me an order."
The waiter replied, "I am so sorry senor. There is only one serving per day because there is only one bull fight each morning. If you come early and place your order, we will be sure to save for you this delicacy."
The next morning, the Englishman returned, placed his order, and that evening was served the one and only special delicacy of the day. After a few bites, inspecting his platter, he called to the waiter and said, "Garcon, these are delicious, but they are much, much smaller than the ones I saw you serve yesterday."
The waiter shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Si Senor. Sometimes the bull, he wins."
(I helped save b3ta! Grrrmachine the indifference engine, Sun 16 Nov 2008, 13:57, archived)
So winning makes their balls shrink?
