How about cursing in russian.... no offence to hebrew, but russian always seemed to me much more rewarding in cursing....

I can do that too since I speak russian fluently
cursing in scandinavian languages now that's cool

I don't think cursing in Russian is really cursing since it is practically every other word that they say.
Like if they bump their foot, they're like "oh bilat". Or if somebody says something stupid, they go "parshol nakhoi pidaras" or something to that effect.
But whenever I hear anything in Russian, it always reminds me of high school.
I remember we used to curse all the time in math class since the teacher didn't understand it and he'd go nuts because he knew that we were making fun of him. Even though I don't speak Russian, I know the curses so I was laughing my ass off.
There also used to be this really screwed up old guy who came to our school once in a while to collect money. If anyone gave him less than a dollar, he'd give this whole story about Moses in the Sinai. If you gave him a dollar or more, he'd give you advice which was always the same. "If you have a big cho'i, give yourself filatio". Then when someone would ask him if that's why he never got dentures, he'd just wink.

as it looks like, Hebrew seems to be an somehow easy language if you keep practicing?!


Well, i'm about to learn it, but i'm far from having a conversation in hebrew. Hopefully i will learn it quickly


see you on saturday!

It's not an easy language really. I was able to pick it up quickly since I used to speak it fluently when I was younger, so it was really a lot more about remembering it as opposed to learning it from scratch. If you study it, you'll pick it up, but you have to speak it a lot and very often. Not just once a week or something.

That made no sense at all.

hebrew is easy...what's hard is the fact that writing in hebrew is with the dotting system(nikud) which makes it possible to read the word exactly as it's supposed to be read.and most of everything that is written is without nikud which makes it hard for non hebrew speakers people to read.
and off course it's hard to get used to a whole new alphabet and reading/writing from right to left.
as for the language itself
there are only 6 tenses: past present and future in active and passive form...no infinitive, progressive, perfect tenses
no regular/irregualr verbs and conjuations of all verbs are pretty much the same with some exceptions here and there

Hvad betyder "meddelelset"?

Hvad betyder "meddelelset"?

i though meddelelse was a verb
the stupid online dictionary i used didn't say if it's a verb or a noun so i tried to conjugate a noun in a language i don't speak so kill me
p.s i fixed my post

I never had any trouble with reading the words correctly with or without the nikudot. I don't really think people who know how to read it and know the words in Hebrew would have too much trouble with that.

Don't be fooled! Learning the first 100 words in hebrew, then counting and some simple sentences is done is a few weeks. But then the reading and writing is quite a challenge if you've never been exposed to the language/ alpahabet before.

Actually, the way I learned Hebrew when I was a kid was by staying with my grandparents for a few weeks. Whenever we went to Israel, we had to stay with them because they would have been very offended if we didn't. But anyway, they didn't speak a word of English, so whenever they said anything, I had to ask my aunt what they said. I learned how to speak it fluently really quickly, but I was really young at the time. The reason I cannot speak it now, although I can still understand it, is because I haven't spoken it for so long.
For anyone that wants to learn it, go to one of those Ulpan language courses where they study it intesnely for a while. I don't know how it works exactly, but I'm assuming it's probably done very similarly as if you were staying with some non English speaking Israelis.

kids always pick up languages easily but it's as easy as fogetting it if you don't use it or exposed to it regualrly
happened to me with french after school happened with russian too before the army.even my english spelling has got pretty shitty in the past few years

how would you say it?

 

[PinkThrone]

Tvivl mig aldrig.

And I still don't know what the hell you meant in the other sentences

But I do know that it's not "dit lille knepper", but "din lille knepper" (not a sentences commonly used though, normally we would say "dit lille røvhul"/"your little asshole")
