Any polyglots/avid language learners here?
Anyway, I started learning french a few days ago, using Assimil and some Duolingo.
>"Bonsoir, comment ça va? Je m'appelle Anon. Nous sommes à 4chan. Es'çe que vous avez lė cigarette?"
I've been learning norwegian with Duolingo but stopped for a while, not much point because I almost never get in contact with it, but I will definitely continue, it was the first language I actually started learning by myself.
>"Hei mennesker! Jeg liker dette nettstedet. Har du noen "maymays" for meg? Gi meg bilde av pene jenter, vær så snill. Takk."
Spent 4 years learning "la lingua italiana" and I can speak less italian then french, kek. Fucking school system. At least I can understand some of it.
>"Non posso parlare italiano baka desu senpai."
So, is anybody here learning some new language? Can you recommend some good learning materials?
/language learning/ general or whatever.
Maybe we can do some practice, at least learn to speak memes in a new language if nothing else.
Yes :
-C++
-Object Pascal
-PHP

Ofc, I might as well mention that too:

PHP
Basic Ruby on Rails
Python
>>688707351
Learn Mandarin, Spanish and German, depending what you want to do in life

Ah, yes, my bad for french. But "posso" is correct for italian, there is "può" but that is 3rd singular.
At least it proves I didn't just try to act smart by using Translate like a faggot.
And why do you think it's useless?

Yeah, it's going to be like that.
How do you commit yourself to learning a language ? I know basic German and French, but that's just because I'm from a German family and took French classes in high school. Whenever I've tried to learn one myself (many times), I've always lost interest very quickly. How do you do it, anons ?
>>688709600
Never found a will to learn russian, but I guess it would not be so hard because I'm somewhat close to you guys.

Already conversational in Japanese, so I'm re-learning Korean and teaching myself Mandarin at the same time. Three languages, three kingdoms. This is their romance.
>>688710659
Nah, I'm not really interested in French and I can read a lot of stuff in it if I have a dictionary on hand. I mostly want to learn Japanese, but haven't started because I know I'm going to quit anyway.
>>688707351
Find a local who speaks the language you want to learn and ask them for help. If they are foreign and don't want to help threaten to vote UKIP/Trump/whatever other anti-immigrant party is in your country.
My grans friend is Danish and is actually a retired teacher so has 40 years experience in teaching people English and shes been teaching me Danish as well as duolingo and suggested I get a book off amazon.
Understanding prepositions,conjunctions and verbs/adverbs are good things to learn very early on as they're obviously used in everyday language in any language. The nouns you can just learn as you go along (Learn basic ones first and practise pronunciations out loud all the time)
Make sure you're dedicated to it. I'm only dedicated to learning Danish because I want to live there, Danmark er bedste <3
>>688710003
Don't use stupid shit like duolingo that just makes you learn a bunch of nouns and phrases by rote.
Learn the grammar and tenses / case first so that you can actually build sentences yourself.
Have a good grasp of how your own language works first.
To make it easier get a girlfriend that speaks the language
>>688711045
Then you're not a polyglot. And considering you can barely make a sentence, you speak nothing but English
>>688707351
日本の as opposed to 日本語?
Yes I can read/write the following languages:
German,
Dutch,
English,
French
And Arabic
>>688710819
Apart from everyone in Norway, who are pretty decent people from the few Norwegians I've met.
I've also met a few Danes and Swedes and confirm that everyone in Scandinavia hate each other.
>>688710003
It's easier when you care about the language you want to learn. Knowing multiple languages can be very useful, just look how many great people were polyglots - for me, those are the things that inspire me.
I guess it can also be a good idea to learn some language which is from a same language family as yours so it could be easier to learn. The best thing you can do is just to go out and actually start using it as soon as you can, even on the internet. It's a cool feeling when you can read anything without google translate.
I'm still a beginner, I still wouldn't even think about mentioning that I know another language aside from English at this point, but I really want to do this. I think duolingo can be a good start because it works like a game - you have checkpoints you have to reach and words easily stick from the beginning, so it keeps you interested. Try it. Do at least one lesson every day.
>>688711045
Japanese is a very simple language to speak, it has fuck all tenses and word order is not really strict.
Learning to read it on the other hand is a pile of bollox
>>688710021
Russian is a bit dificult in grammar...
>>688711212
Thanks for the advice. I don't think I'll get a Japanese girlfriend, but a friend of mine has one. Maybe she could help me out.
>>688711276
When did I say that I'm a polyglot ? Also, I can make sentences in German because I do it every single time I talk to my mother or sister.
>>688711388
Unfortunately, there are no other languages in the same family as Japanese, so that won't work. I do care about it a lot, though.

Is duolingo a good way to learn a new language? ive been learning portuguese on it and some people are telling me that duolingo isnt a good way to learn a language.
>>688711212
(Not the guy you are replying to, but...)
See, this is the exact opposite in my case.
During 4 years of school, language classes focused too much on the grammar and too little time has actually been spent actually using it in conversation. It left me with some theory that I can't use and a shallow word pool.
I really recommend the book "learn language in 7 days" by ramon campayo (spanish recorder in memorization). That was the thing that made me to get up and start learning.
The concept is the following - learn vocabulary first, the grammar second. You basically start by learning x hundred of words which are the most spoken ones. You talk like tarzan, but you can actually have conversations and understand the writings. Some of it you can get by your own logic. Ofc, you learn some grammar along the way too, but you NEED to have a vocabulary so you can put it to practice. Words are memorized by a technique of associations. It made it much easier for me to keep at it and I actually didn't achieve bad habits in terms of grammar.
Btw, why did I start learning norwegian? It's a pretty retarded story actually.
Just google "Emilie Nereng blog" and you will understand.
Also, swedish and danish are pretty similar, so you can then automatically understand most of those as well.
>>688713064
Спасибо друг!!
>>688713276
Duolingo is good only in the beginning, afterwards it's useless because you can't practice actually talking with people.

>>688713344
I guess people just learn differently.
I always hated the whole learning phrases and vocab way of doing things. That's the way Irish is thought in schools in Ireland.
I always thought of it as the way children learn their first language, you're constantly surrounded by it and learn it that way. Of course nobody speaks Irish when they get home from school so you're not immersed in it properly.
You only start learning it in what I consider the adult way (focusing on the grammar) when you're a teenager and most people already hate it by then.
I had Irish classes for 13 years and can speak a language I started learning 2 years ago better.

>>688713746
I know that is the best way of learning languages, but I'm still kinda surprised how that works. How long did it take you? I don't think I could learn it if I didn't constantly go to clubs and talk to people, how do you even start to understand it, actually, did you learn it by yourself from books/internet too, or did you strictly learn it from conversations with other people?
>>688714454

Just a minor note, "non posso [parlare italiano]" isn't the literal translation of "I can't speak italian", that would be "non so parlare italiano", the sentence you wrote means "I [forcibly] can't speak italian"

>>688714139
I stumbled upon some reddit thread where the guy recommended assimil as a much faster method than duolingo. Check out /r/languagelearning. I'm only on the 6th lesson with assimil (it's supposed to be 1 lesson per day, but it's actually just a dozen or so sentences per lesson, so I'll do more per day, I was just busy these days so I went slower). I haven't tried this method before so I have yet to see how it will progress. It's a lot of reading and listening, that is, learning the language like a newborn, there are also some notes explaining some basic grammar along the way. There are shitton of lessons though, like 200+. There's audio and pdf (2 separate torrents) on tpb. Also, there are more versions of assimil and some are worse than others. The torrent which I'm using is from the 90s and that is supposed to be a good one.
Duolingo is great for starters. I brushed up some of my norwegian on it and learned a lot of words. You learn some words, sentences and grammar with it, but it usually goes word by word. It's pretty good, but it started to get annoying for me because it's pretty slow and often you have to solve the same questions over and over again - but "Repetitio est mater studiorum", so that's not actually a bad thing. The words stick pretty well.
I say, download duolingo on your phone and just dive in and see where it will get you. The best way is to just use multiple sources.
>>688715685
Tip #1 - don't learn it.
You have no reason to do so, believe me.
I'm a russiafag and I learn English to move from Russia. Russian culture doesn't exist anymore, cummies fucked it all up, nothing to study here.
Learning Czech very, very slowly, which gives me bits and pieces of Slovak and Polish. Speak enough to get by in Italian, Romanian, and probably Spanish at a stretch. Was conversational in all three at one point, but quit using them after I left the places people speak them. Learned Latin and Ancient Greek in college but that shit's gone beyond what I use for work which isn't much.
Definitely not a polyglot, but I still feel ok about it all.
>>688716267
>cummies
I think the draw of Russia is the lower amount of niggers compared to the rest of Europe.
>>688716254
Thanks for this great report. Are assimil and duolingo for free?
>>688715685
Don't. Learn a slavic language closer to the average like Ukranian that will give you some ability to talk to the whole eastern bloc, or better yet don't learn any of them because anywhere worth going in the 2nd world speaks english and their languages are hard as fuck to learn from a romance or germanic background.
German is good for the 2nd world as well, for what that's worth, but English is still better anywhere I've been.
>>688708797
I always end up forgetting Esperanto due of lack of usage because there's almost no people around to speak it with.

Moreover, niggers here usually look like american whites and don't leave their families, but it doesn't make Russia any better, everything else is still shit (well, maybe with an exception for education, but it depends).
Where would someone start with learning Japanese ? What are the best resources to get familiar with the language, and what order do I do the things that I need to do ?
>>688716513
Czech Republic has so few niggers I do a double take when I see one (and I've literally never seen a muslim in 5 years here), and its richer, less authoritarian, more cultured, more technologically advanced, has a higher standard of living, and all around is better in every meaningful way.
Decent number of VC running the convenience stores and gypsies gypping around, but neither have ever shown me anything but respect and the violent crime rate is so low its unheardof so idgaf.

For utilitarian purposes, English and Spanish pretty much cover Europe (except France, those fuckers refuse to speak English even if they know it) and both Americas, i.e. most places world worth being in.
If you're really young (like late teens at the oldest) and very future-oriented, learn Chinese.
>>688716676
>Ukrainian
Don't recommend him this shitlang of fucking ukrainian subhumans, it's worse than learning some ooga booga dooga.
>>688717133
Bulgarian would probably actually be a fairly simple entry to slavic languages for an English speaker.
It has cyrillic, everything is pronounced as it's written, there are no cases and pronouns are optional
>>688716911
Pashol means go or went. For example, Пошол ты на хуй means Go fuck yourself, and Он пошел в магазин means He went to the store.

Czechs are pretty cool guys. In terms of mentality, they're probably the most Western peoples of all Slavs.

pashol nahui = get the fuck out.
Literal translation of "pashol" (correct spelling is "пОшёл" btw) is "go" or "walk" in imperative form
>>688717243
Western Europe definitely, but you get out towards the east that becomes less true, and Italy was a problem for me as well. Romania you just cannot get around in English, or couldn't when I was there, unless you're in the very heart of the capital. Czech Republic is the same outside like Prague and Brno.
>>688717133
>>688717273
Fair enough. I don't speak it, was just going by what I was taught about it which may well have been bullshit.

Almost

Also "Es'çe que vous avez lė cigarette?" Is incorrect. The good sentence is «Est-ce que vous avez une cigarette» (lè doesn't even exist)

Haha yeah, I could have actually figured it out because I tried to use a definitive. Woah, there even isn't "lè cigarette"? Yeah, that is the part I think Duolingo will be useful for. Assimil is more for getting the language in your head but I have to look somewhere else for more grammar.
Btw, other anon mentioned "dans 4chan" before. What is the difference between "dans" and "sur" here?

I only know Russian, English and Swedish. Want to learn German, French or Spanish, can't decide which one though. Everyone says German is super hard, but I noticed that the vocabulary is really similar to Swedish so it can't be that hard, right?

After Russian it will be super easy. Moreover, Swedish and German are both Germanic languages, that makes it even easier.

>>688720946
Not at all, why would I do that? I don't even know anything else except for English.
Yeah, I'm really into linguistics.
I know English and Czech as first languages (immigrant parents). Branched out into other Slavic languages from there (Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian, Russian, and Slovakian, but Slovakian might as well be Czech), and then I took up Spanish and German in high school. Right now, I'm learning French.
Considering learning Arabic, it seems like it would be a fun language to try.

Only on words,
«dans» means «in/inside»
«sur» means «on»
Actually, both are correct, but «sur 4chan» sounds better (because it's difficult to physically get INSIDE an image board)
It's close to «browse on internet», not «browse in internet»
>>688709010
"Dans" basically mean "in", but we use "sur" more often.

I'm learning German and there are definitely many very important colloquial phrases that make no sense whe. You translate them directly. I wish I had spent more time at the begin fun just learning phrases because now I can understand basics, but I can't understand a lot of meaning because it just doesn't translate.

How does anybody else feel about people who put very similar languages on their CV and social media profiles like they "know them"? E.g., if you know croatian, and you put serbian and bosnian in there. Or if you know swedish and you put norwegian and danish. Well, more or less. The point is, they put the languages that are 95% similar to their native one. It's obviously to make it look like they know a lot of them. But isn't that just silly?
>>688721843
I've never seen any qties here.
Well, maybe "chinese cartoons" made me too picky .
>>688721961
No, that's pretty much the polyglot mindset. It's like writers or art connoisseurs, each one thinks they're justifiably proud of their knowledge and everyone else is a pretentious fucktard. You're in good company you delusional tit.

Meh, no reason not to make themselves look good if they can; if the languages aren't identical, then there's some accomplishment in being able to speak both. People who write down American English and Canadian English and British English and so on can slam their cock in a car door, that being said.

Unless they can actually speak and write in that language with reasonable few mistakes, it shouldn't count even if you understand what the other person is trying to say. I live in Swedistan and understand about 90% of what a Norwegian is saying and could communicate with him, but I could never write or speak in his language as it should be without it just being Swedish. For example, "også, er, jævla" all sound identical to "också, är, jävla", but the spelling is different so it's still not Norwegian even if they would understand it.
>>688723974
Shit, forgot that. But I can basically just fizzbuzz in it.
>>688723580
My German is not the best, but I lived in Germany for a year. I would recommend memrise. Also, I would recommend trying to get in contact with native speakers because it really helps with fluency and conversational skills
>>688723717
It's believable, it's just that polyglots usually have a pretty basic idea of what "knowing a language" means, they tend to just get to a stage where they can just about converse with people and then move onto another, they're rarely ever fluent in more than 1 or 2 of them

Gee golly, wonder which one that is, stay tuned fellow 14 language fluent anons.
I see, a lot of people here claim to speak Russian, but when it comes to writing replies, they all speak like fucking google translate. So, dear polyglots, could it be that you add a language in your list just after watching some introductory lessons on youtube or reading a beginner-level book ? How many languages, among the ones you've listed, are you really good at ?

「他のは全部つまらない」って… 辛くない、それ？ 韓国は日本と似ているから面白そうね。それ以上、フランスの文学も凄くていい。中国でもつまらなくないもんがある （マンフアとか）。
Seriously though a lot of other cultures are worth looking into. You really shouldn't just dismiss them as boring. I'm French, and love French culture. Not necessarily the more traditionnal/historical culture but the more contemporary side - French graphic novels are great, our insults are gold (see >>688713761 ) (and our overall slang is, in my opinion, a lot more fun to use than English slang), and overall I think we're a pretty cool bunch of people.
Even if it seems like a bit of a hassle at first languages are always fun to learn, cause you get access to a whole new set of books/games/entertaining shit you wouldn't get access to with only your mother tongue. And entertainment is always appreciated.

The thread is about polyglots - you should expect polyglots in it. I don't understand why you're so butthurt. Yeah sure some might be exagerrating or straight-up lying, but you can still be a "polyglot" if you're fluent in one or two languages but speak a few others casually. The definition of polyglot is literally "someone who can speak a number of languages".

Well for French I've been using Duolingo, French by French, and Memrise. I've put my french learning on hold for a while to focus more on school work, but I feel like my main issue with french is remembering the words I've learned.
For German I just use my School. I started learning it with Duolingo before school and got pretty far through the tree. The only problem I have is Grammar, remembering the words is easy since many words in English are cognates.
(1/2)
>>688729630
For Esperanto, I have a downloadable course that I got from some site but it seems reliable. I also got lernu and Duolingo to help me out with grammar as well as memrise for words. I even subscribed to a few esperanto channels on Youtube to get an idea of how to pronounce and speak the language.
Japanese, however, is a real pain since I love the speed and sound of the language but don't know how to learn it since its different from any European language. I know Hiragana and Katakana like the back of my hand, but the kanji is what throughs me off. I've used Memrise and Wanikani to help me out. WaniKani seems like the best bet but you have to wait before you can review the vocab/kanji, which is bad for me since I've been learning Japanese on and off. Maybe one of the reasons for my trouble is that I have no clue how to tackle it. The Grammar seems easy though, and i have a site as well as a youtube playlist with lessons and exercises. I even got Genki 1 and the workbook to help me out.
