I'm just curious, I've seen many profiles in which many of our members/moderators live in foreign countries! If you can speak any other language besides English, be proud and post away! You might even teach us a lesson!

And also, I forget which post had it in but I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to say "I like wolves a lot" in a language besides English or Spanish. I love meeting people who can speak multiple languages, it is so cool!

I'm afraid that I can only speak fluently in English, Spanish is my 2nd language of choice, but I'm not gifted with being able to learn lanuages easily so my attempts to learn it haven't been very successful, yet.

I envy all these people who can fluently speak 5 languages.

To quote Fifth Element, "I only speak two languages English and Bad English"

English and German,

"Ich mag wulfen" I think, cant find wolf in my dictionary.

OMG I loved that quote, fits me perfectly... although this is my second year taking Spanish, but I cannot speak it fluently, just reading and writing...

mi secondario lengua es espanol, con un pequeno aleman

but mostly english

I speak English, Irish, and some French

English and dutch rather well, German enough to understand it and to speak it a bit

Lonewolf I speak Irish too, I just don't know the slang terms.

Can you tell me how to say "I like wolves a lot " or " I love wolves" ? I think I'll collect as many ways as I can in my signature

I love wolves as Gaeilge is:
Is aoibhinn liom mac tíre

Mi primera lengua es el castellano, pero tambien puedo comunicar en ingles. He podido hablar las dos lenguas por la major parte de mi vida. Lo que ypo deseo es aprender el japones. si puedo pensar en las dos lenguas .

I most often communicate in english, seeing as how it is the predominant language at home(mom is british, but is also fluent in spanish) and in the U.S.

I speak mainly in english, porque hablo en espanol tambien. I waas raised in America, so I have a much better grasp on english than on Spanish, since I started Spanish in Junior High. (Not counting a two week course in my first year of school, which was just colors and twenty other words, none of which I remember from then) So I am on my third year of Spanish, but I am technically taking Spanish 2. Oh wait, sorry, technically, I'm not taking a course in Spanish, but in LOTE. (LOTE=Language Other Than English, name of foreign language course in my state) In seventh and eighth grade, I took Spanish one, which is how it works. Spanish one is a longer course, since you need to learn the foundation of an entirely new language.

These are decent translators that should give you what you need to know, although you should always trust another person before them, as they are prone to error.

I love wolves.
Minä rakastan susia. (in finnish=suomeksi)

Haluatteko tietää jotain muuta?
Would you like to know anything else?

I went away to france recently and I can understand just about everything thats said to me in french now, thats about it,

EDIT: Oh and english , an a can speek sim qaate ged braaad scots, like , lol or maybe not

i speak american
and am learning french.

Norwegian... Learning German, even tho we have only learned the grammar for two years without learning any words (some of course...). But I can speak German rather well as soon as I get my hand on some words, that are not dirty because I know those Can speak mostly and understand some other scandinavian languages like Swedish and Danish - And know some French, Spanish, Arabic... Refeering to what they speak in India and Pakistan

English and am working on my Japanese .....its coming along slowly.

English, finnish and swedish. Those are the ones I can speak fluently. Further, I do know german and can understand it decently but actually speaking it causes headaches for me.

American?, hmmmm. Well I speak English and Bad Spanish. I failed my first year of spanish (more out of not trying than anything) and I only know bits and pieces.

Hi there folks!
I just ordered quite a nice pc upgrade that finally enables me to look forward to oblivion instead of saying "hell yeah nice game but won't work @ my pc" ;-)
To cut a long story short, I'm going to haunt this forums regulary by now.

I speak german ( quite well i assume coz its my native language ^^) and rather bad english ( learning it since 7 years at school ). Latin won't count as a language, eh?

Btw:
I like wolves a lot <~> Ich mag Wölfe wirklich gerne

just something my french teaqcher says, we speak american, not english. it's the same thing but apparently american is more slang oriented or sumthin


...your english seems fine, welcome to the forums!

Heh thanks to the people who told me the translations, I find languages so cool... I wish I could understand Gaelic... my bloodlines come from Ireland and I think my last name means "strongman" in Gaelic or something I forget...

I speak swedish, english, german and a tiiiny bit french...

now then I understand norwegian and danish quite good.....and I can read dutch.....fairly good




"I love wolves very much" would be in swedish

Jag älskar vargar väldigt mycket

I'll keep the short version, appreciated very much though! Heh it is amazing how many languages one European or Asian person can understand.... I only know one.... ( I wonder) because the Spanish courses in middle schoola are not very effective (wink wink)

To correct a bit your list Wurlon, I love wolves in spanish is "Me gusta mucho los lobos", I don't know who told you that sentence but it's wrong

French --> J'aime des loups

I also know Swedish fluently and a tiny bit of japanese, (studied it for a year but have forgotten a lot).

so 4 and one 100th of a language it is then

Or simply put,

"Amo los lobos"

I'll take your word that los lobos is wolves, but I think that me gusta is not "I love" but "I like." Actually, specifically, me encanto (might be encanta, I forget) would mean I love, me gusta means pleasing to me, or it pleases me, I believe.

So, "Me encanto mucho los lobos" means "I love wolves very much." Saying, "Me gusta mucho los lobos," means "Wolves are very pleasing to me."


Or at least that's what my teachers taught me. If you think you know better, then trust your Spanish more than mine any day, I don't place great faith in the NYS LOTE system.

Well, I lived in a spanish-speaking country for 10 years but still I don't trust my spanish 100% there are so many "flavours" to it..

However It's true that "Me gusta" isn't "I love" but "I like". but if you would directly translate "I love wolves" it would be as Megil said "Amo los lobos" but I think personally that "Amo" is a bit too much. Only on the most romantic moments when it finally happened that I would use the word "Amo", or maybe when I exagerate over liking something. So I guess you can choose:

"Me gusta mucho los lobos" --> I like wolves very much
"Amo los lobos" --> I love wolves
or
"Me encanta los lobos" that would be "I really like wolves" or something like that..

Man, spanish is hard

very true, amar is a rather strong word for the expression. I liked the "me encatan los lobos" it's more enthusiastic than gustar, and not as passionate as amar. good work guys

I second that. I think they teach Mexican Spanish at my school, but I'm not sure. I'd still trust your word over that of my teachers, not only are they being paid for by the evil school board, but we haven't gotten very far in Spanish yet.

So I was paying attention that day. Great. So, he shouldn't use "amo" unless he's really into beastiality?


Thanks. I guess Spanish class did prove useful for something in the real world. Huh, and I doubted my teacher when she said that. Bad me.

I might be dropping Spanish after this year. Where I live, taking Spanish 2 is required for the Regents Diploma, which is practically the same as the normal diploma, but if you take Spanish 3 (next year for me, if I do take it) you can get the Advanced Regents Diploma, which is better. However, I somehow doubt that taking a foreign language will be required for what I want to take, which is a Computer Programming (specifically video game design) course.

You do? nice....are you by any chance swedish then...I can´t imagine anyone would learn swedish just for the fun of it......except certain ppl in Finland of course!

Yes minque I'm swedish Lived in Argentina for 10 years therefore my spanish and studied french for three years in school.

short version of a long story..

lol short version of a long story. I know what that is like. it is always hard explaining to people I have dual citizenship, venezuelan and british, and that I lived in Venezuela for 7 years, before moving to Panama for another 6, and then moving to the states.

Mi piacciono molto i lupi (Italian)

J'aime beaucoup les loups (French)

The diffuculty with languages that span over multiple countries is how you say it, for now I will use amo los lobos, or whatever I pasted down there and ask my teacher. Spanish is wierd like that

And also, I'm getting two different french versions, can anyone clarify one?

English, Mexican and enough of the various types of Arabic to get by.

Jeah, like me. (I'm on ninth grade and learning swedish all the time)

Is that supposed to be spanish? If thats the case then it's "España" and "Lobo" not Espanja and Lopo.. I wouldn't trust that list if I were you..

Hey c'mon, the list's country names are in finish language.

Sorry if it sounded like a criticism on you Wolf, I didn't mean it that way.
But now, I can understand why España would be written Espanja, but not how lobo in any way becomes lopo? Does the letter b become a p in finish?

Just wonders

Edit: If the rest is correct, then you got a pretty extensive list there

Jag mår bra! (That´s the correct answer to Hur mår du, which I am sure you meant..ok?)

You finnish ppl ....having to learn swedish! Well when my dad came to sweden long ago he had to learn swedish as well and he found it rather hard to learn!.....

It is used for web scripting, i.e. a programming language. It was meant as a joke, but a pretty bad one.

what does hoy te amo mean?

i guess it's spanish....

It is, are you looking at the flash on new grounds?

It means "Today I love you"

I'm kinda new to the forum.. but hey! "I love wolves" in Polish- "Kocham wilki"

yeah, saw it a lttle while ago, the flash was alright but i really like the author.

and welcome to the forums.
