Apart from Esperanto and Interlingua, there are constructed languages like Volapyk and Ido. Anyone speak any of those?

Linaewen · 08-31-2003, 05:35 AM

Jon, om du Ã¤r intresserad av Interlingua, det finns en sida om det hÃ¤r. Jag tycker att den Ã¤r bÃ¤ttre Ã¤n den engelska sidorna. (Jag vet inte varfÃ¶r den har en norska adress

)

Btw, has anyone watched the Tomb Raider movie (the first one). Did you hear the 'Cambodian' in there?

No, that is not a Norwegian address. Norway has .no, while .nu is for some for away island nation or something. The .nu addresses are very popular in Sweden, since 'nu' means 'now'. So we use them too

Thanks for the URL!

You have both .se AND .nu? And we only have .com.au! You have a lot of things for such a small country!

Hehe - there was a guy who tried to register this address: www.por.no. he wasn't allowed though.

(And therefore, the link doesn't work

)

***Jonathan*** · 08-31-2003, 06:08 AM

Wow, I can actually understand Interlingua very well, even though I've never seen the language before.

The dictionary won't translate 'por'. Why is that?

Jon, even I can understand it well. It's dead easy- looks exactly like what it is- a mix of English, Spanish, Italian etc.

I had to clear that up - since you misrepresented my statements. You can continue on talking about languages now.

ah, he is following me

Ruinel · 09-15-2003, 12:06 AM

So, what is Interlingua and who speaks this?

Lalaith · 09-15-2003, 11:39 AM

Ruinel, darf ich dich nach der Ãœbersetzung fragen?

Lalaith · 11-08-2003, 05:50 AM

Ruinel? Artanis? Lin? Jon? Anyone ..... ?

***Jonathan*** · 11-08-2003, 06:02 AM

Â¡Anda!, este hilo ha estado revivado

Artanis · 11-08-2003, 06:17 AM

Hola Lalaith e Jon! CÃ³mo estan?
Hablen conmigo en espaÃ±ol?
DeberÃ*amos encontrar a Lin.

***Earniel*** · 11-08-2003, 11:06 AM

Je pense que Lin a dÃ©cidÃ© de ne pas visiter l'Entmoot pour le moment, un peu comme des vacances . Je ne sais pas quand elle revienne mais elle m'a dit qu'elle reviendra.

Mes excuses pour la FranÃ§ais mais je connais peu d'Espagnol pour dire tout que je veux dire.

EstÃ¡ possible. Yo no hÃ© a pensado.

Probably full of errors and it took me a long time to write those two single spanish sentences.

Yeah, I know, I'm pathetic.

I've just started to learn spanish so don't kill me, but doesn't 'estÃ¡' mean 'is' in the sense of location (like "it is in Spain='EstÃ¡ en EspaÃ±a) and in the sentence "how are you" ('Como estÃ¡s?'), while 'is' in the context of "it is good", "it is green" 'es' should be used (the verb 'ser')?

Lalaith · 11-09-2003, 04:21 AM

Hola!
QuÃ© tal?
HablÃ© con Lin y ella dicÃ³ que volverse a Entmoot pronto.

Earniel, Brussels (however called in Spanish) estuvÃ³ muy bien. Me gusta Belgium (again, don't know the spanish).

Wow, it took me some effort to write these lines.

Yo tambien, escribir una frasa espaÃ±ola me llevo muy tiempo.

Espero la reapariciÃ³n de Lin.

Spanish grammar kills me.

My impression about the use of 'estar' and 'ser' is that 'ser' is used when talking about fundamental and stable conditions, while 'estar' is used when talking about a state that is likely to change. Does that make sense?
