I got it a long time ago - but I'm also studying Japanese.

[Arikana]

I studied Japanese six, almost seven, years ago...but still, I didn't expect that. >.>

[Serena Yuy]

I only knew a few words in Japanese when I was younger. Now I know very little Spanish (and I took it in school) and very little Finnish (and I'm attempting to teach myself that now ^^").

[Fauxreal]

I know Spanish - and I learn a little Japanese every day!

[Quiet Man Cometh]

Appaling levels of French for a Canadian (dropped it in school to lesson my course load when I was sick. I know stuff off of French lables mostly ;)). Studied two years of Swedish but my vocab still sucks, and attempted Spanish before dropping languages entirely so I can read it as in pronounce a Spanish word but don't have much of an idea of what I'm saying. Picked up scattered words in German and Italian from travelling. More garnishes really. ;)

Interestingly, learning to read outdated forms of English helps out when learning European languages.

Mornin' y'all :3
Roll call: who all is up and actually online at this time of night (or day on the other side of the world from Kat)?


I figured I'd post first then backlog the last few pages to catch up. That way I'm at least finding out who is here now ^_^
~Kat is a very experienced lurker, but this posting spree she has been on for ONE MONTH AS OF TODAY *w00t!* is very new to her, so she is really like a shy and ignorant newbie~

Here's some stuff I got from the last page on which I posted:

It takes a while to get used to using a phone instead of a computer, especially after two+ decades of using a computer (yes, I'm old, har har...moving on...), and my phone is ALL touch screen, but I've gotten used to it. After a year and a half, I can even type when my keypad blanks out (I don't think Droids are meant to last for more than 2 years- damned Motorola!).
I do it because it beats the hell out of dial-up, which is all my little village will ever have via wires. We have satellite, but it's slower than my phone and has a bandwidth limit (my phone doesn't, and except when I'm really sick, I use almost 10gig per month on my phone >.<)

Aside from the slowness and bandwidth limit, this is the other reason I use my phone rather than my laptop (notebook, to be more accurate). It only has a 6 hour battery, and setting up the charger is a pain in the ass. I'm going to have to download GIMP to my computer because it doesn't have a disk drive to load Photo Shop - and I'm dreading it because 1. It's going to eat a lot of bandwidth; and B. It's going to be slooooow. I had DSL when I lived in Phoenix, so I guess I'm quite spoiled when it comes to internet stoofs *gerk*

Okeydokey, time for me to backlog and see what I missed out on ^_^

[Lucid:]

Yes Ari, it's Ohio. XD

Lol, my Canadian French is just as bad as the lowest level that I've actually spent learning it would be grade seven. D:

Ooooh, teach me some Swedish please? <3

You've travelled to Germany and Italy? owo
What were they like? Why did you go there? Are they as beautiful as I read/heard from the internet/people? owo
