I still think it would be nice to be able to speak any other language with some form of fluency :( My father and his mother argued until the day she died about whose responsibility it was to teach my brother and me Italian. It was only when I went to Italy that I realised neither were particularly fit for the job :p

My Japanese teacher in primary school wasted too much time teaching religion so we learnt fuck-all. My Japanese teacher in high school was actually Japanese but it was only half a year of classes half a lifetime ago so I don't recall very much. Same for French.
I wonder why people learn Japanese in school :confused: Not that I don't like it, I'm trying to learn it myself. I've just never heard of that option before.
:D

Last night I couldn't hear any difference between Ofen and offen :o
Really? That's odd :p

I might even be able to send the paper to my prof today if I send it without an overall analysis..

Best, Nederland. Jetzt Belgien
I just counted how many years I've been studying different languages.
english - 13 years
swedish - 11 years
german - 2 years

Someone might think that I can speak swedish almost as well as english but actually my swedish "skills" are about the same as my german "skills" :D
If I can count the usage of it as study, then...
English 30yrs (5yrs)
French: 30yrs (5yrs)
German: 28yrs (2yrs)

(number of years in school)

But also because we don't dub anything in the Netherlands, except child films. All other stuff is subtitled.
Lot of german words are actually close to english or swedish words so I might be able to learn them easier except die, der, das part. No logic there! :rolleyes:

The Der/Die/Das thing is something you can't really learn. You must simply learn them noun by noun. The same with Dutch. And we have to know it by heart! :D
