The Official Languages Thread

yup, I know that all of you love to practise the other languages and show off with your abilities.
And I know that we shouldn't spoil other threads with it. So here it is:
The Official Languages Thread!

Post in any language you want to. There will be someone who is able to understand and correct it or even reply.

Ah, I should begin.
I am a native German speaker, so don't hesitate to ask me anything or to write something in German.

Das ist eine gute Idee

Ja, det er en god ide.

Oui, c'est une bonne idée.

Ich brauche Ãœbung Deutch zu sprechen.
(God, that sentence seems weird.... )

Lalaith, do you still use the double-s sign in German?

Lalaith, do you still use the double-s sign in German?
you mean the "ß"?
yah, we have new writing rules but the still have not eliminated it. In some words it is still right.
And yes, the sentence sounds a little weird, but I can't figure out what is wrong. Let me think. I would rather say:
Ich brauche Ãœbung im Deutsch Sprechen!
Wow, you know how to use the capital letters.

Ek kan so 'n bietjie in my eie taal sê, maar ek twyfel of enige van julle dit sal verstaan (behalwe miskien die Nederlandse mense hier). Sjoe, waar moet ek begin? Ek is 'n Afrikaans sprekende Suid Afrikaner, maar ek praat ook Engels vlot en ek lees, verstaan en skryf die taal ook vlot. Ek is baie ingenome met Entmoot en hou van die meeste van die mense hier. Daar is een of twee wat op my senuwees werk, maar Coney is my goeie vriend en hy laat my altyd lag.

Ek is vreeslik lus vir 'n Dubbel Zoute Dropje waar ek nou hier sit, maar ek sal maar wag tot later want ek kan dit nie vir onbyt eet nie.

As julle wil kan ek so bietjie in Sotho, Zulu of Xhosa ook sê, maar vir nou is ek eers 'n bietjie moeg.

Mooi bly almal, praat later weer.

K

Oopsie.
I saw the second and the third and thought the were not quite the topic I wanted to have.
But why didn't the search engine find the first one?
Really sorry.
Das tut mir jetzt echt Leid!

Right. Since the other thread is so old, I'll leave this one open.

Uh, je parle en français un peu. J'ai etudié français pour deux ans dans l'école.

*looks at those sentences and wonders how much is wrong with them*

Je peux lire en français meilleur que je peux écrire en français. Je aussi comprend français meilleur que je peux écrire français.

Pardon my butchering of the French language, s'il vous plaît.

Hehe, I like this thread! It's funny to see how much I can understand of what is said here

I guess that means "Does someone speak Portuguese?". I don't speak the language, but I can understand a bit of it.

Oui, je parle français. J'ai etudié la langue pendant presque onze ans. Je pense que c'est amusant qu'il y a quelqu'un d'autre qui parle français ici, en plus de moi
