    Damn you Multi-Lingual buggers!

    I can count to over a million in German and I know their alphabet and a couple of basic words and sentences but that's it!

    Wish more kids at my High School chose to do German in year 9, rather than the bludge that Woodwork was.
    (Our German Teacher ended up leaving because of the low turnout )

    I envy you guys who've been able to wrap your minds and tongues around Asiatic languages, it'd sure make TF hunting more fun!

    Guten tag! Ich bin hungrig.

    Du bist zu hungrig, ya? Und erotisch?

    Don't envy me so much Hursticon my Vietnamese is very BASIC despite haha. I learned German in Years 8-10 too as it was compulsory but dropped it as soon as I could.

    "Ich habe meine Auto schluessel verschlukt" <--- "I've swallowed my car keys."

    I can recite one poem in German:
    Ein Ring sie zu knechten, One Ring to rule them all
    sie alle zu finden, One Ring to find them
    ins Dunkel zu treiben One Ring to bring them all
    und ewig zu binden And in the darkness bind them

    I can also recite this poem in Sindarin, Black Speech and Japanese... but erm, I won't do that right now. (feel free to ask me at the next meet )

    ...getting back on the Vietnamese topic... so anyone care to translate that poem? Or how about some nifty TF phrases in Vietnamese? (e.g. "Till All Are One" etc.)
