I don’t know if you’d be interested in this and it’s fine if you aren’t. But would you be interested in making Slovenne courses for users on here? There aren’t very many out there, and I’m not sure how accurate they are either.

Hi there!

Cool that you made a verb course for learners of German!

And did you know that “geil” used to mean “horny” or “sexy”??? :wink:

Today, young Germans use it to mean “super, great, fantastic” etc. but when I came to live in Germany in 1988, it was only used in the other sense. Its meaning has changed in about the last ten years.

it conserved the meaning “horny”, still, especially in Verbindung with “old man”, etc… Ask a German man what does he understand by “ich bin (so) geil” :grin: (only a child would think only about “I’m (so) cool”). It is still an ambivalent word

Hey there! ^^
My name is Lies (LiesTheRoach) and I speak Dutch and English (almost) fluently. I’m currently learning German at school and Korean on memrise. I’m 16 years old and from the Netherlands. I used to not really be intrested in learning new languages, because the ones I tried to learn at school, Latin, Greek and French, just didn’t stick with me, and German (which I’m learning at school right now) isn’t exactly going smooth either. But once I figured out it isn’t too hard to at least learn to read Korean, I figured I’d give it a try, and it turns out to be more fun than I was expecting!
I’ve only been on Memrise for about a week and mostly use the app.
I’m still kind of lost on here too, so feel free to message me or whatever it is that people do.c:

Hi, I’m Christa627 or christa627 pretty much everywhere (Duolingo, lernu.net, lang-8, Wordpress, YouTube, Instructables, HiNative). It’s kind of a dorky name, but it was the best I could think of when I was in a hurry to make an account on lernu.net, and I’ve used it since for continuity. However, the christa627 on Skype is not me.

Anyway, I’m from the United States; born in Washington state, grew up in Oregon, and currently living in Colorado while I plot my escape back to Oregon. I’ve always been interested in languages, but have had a hard time focusing on one long enough to actually speak it. I did manage to learn Esperanto; I guess being simpler and more predictable than most languages helped it fit within my attention span :stuck_out_tongue:. But I have a goal this year to become fluent (well, C1 or so) in Spanish, and that means resisting the urge to switch to a different language or try to take on more of them simultaneously (while that sounds like such a good idea, it seldom works out well for me!).

I want to become a polyglot, but I keep getting lured away by constructed languages; I don’t know why, but I just find them fascinating! Natural languages are fascinating too, but in a different way. At the top of my list of natural languages to learn are Spanish, Russian, Korean, and Italian. My favorite constructed languages are Esperanto, Toki Pona, and Lojban, and I’ve also dabbled in Klingon, Volapük, and Ido. And then there’s American Sign Language; I’m not sure how to categorize it, but I really want to learn it! :smiley:

My current rank is Membrain. I progressed a lot faster when I was using the app, but it is no longer compatible with my device (which runs on Android 2.3.7, if I remember right). I know I can’t reasonably expect apps to maintain compatibility with archaic OSs, but I’m still sad that I can’t use the app anymore, since I can’t afford a new phone :cry:.

TLDR: I like to study languages, both natural and constructed. I speak Esperanto. I’m learning Spanish and trying not to lose my focus. I wish all apps would be compatible with Gingerbread forevermore.

Hi my name is Tiana and username is TianaHarris17.

I speak English as my native language, however I learned Spanish and Italian and French simultaneously as a child. As an adult now my biggest problem is sorting them out. LOL. I obviously use English the most Spanish the second most and Italian because I travel to Italy a lot. However my problem is when I can’t think of a word in Italian it comes out in French or Spanish so everything is kind of jumbled up.

I’m actually a professional translator, but Japanese is not one of my professional languages. I study it to ‘grease’ my language capabilities.

Hey! I’m LindaKristiina both here and on the main page. I’ve been in Memrise maybe two (or almost three, I’m not sure) years now, and just few days ago received a Membassador rank.

My first language is Finnish but I’m learning in English because it feels more natural. There are also good benefits in learning in another language than your native, for example strengthening the language you already know.

I’m 16 years old and I’ve been learning languages since I was 9. I’ve studied English, Swedish, German and French at school and at my free time several others, like Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Italian, Japanese, Mandarin and many others. I’m learning languages because I want to be able to communicate with people from all around the world, and I also want to understand different cultures.

I’m trying to do a Finnish course for English speakers, but I don’t know yet when I’m going to release it. I’m also planning to do a Finnish course for some other languages.
