*sniggers* And 'War of the Unborn' is not dramatic?

Well in any case your numbers are wrong and it destorts your message then that more unborn babies are killed than people in those wars listed. I can't exactly call that the thruth. It could be just me though.

I guess the Swedish message is somewhat understandable to German speaking persons.
At least I can understand quite a few German words.

I thought it meant something like: Jonathan is the best teacher in the world.
It is so hard teaching german to Lin. She always wants to know about the pronunciation but I can't explain it to her. I'm a horrible teacher.

Not true. It's not your fault I'm a bad student. Also- I've taken to asking my favourite teacher (for History) how exactly to pronounce things- so it shouldn't be too hard.

"Jonathan is a toad, not a frog" is correct.

My sig- I will change it soon to have lyrics.

No, it is not correct.
And I'm the bad teacher.

Ok, it may not be correct. I haven't learn much Svenska yet, I admit. Must you mock me?

No, you are not bad. You just give me hard sentences to translate.

My sig is two parts:

A challenge / invitation depending how you want to take it....

And my view on life & the reason I refuse to act my age, after all we're only here for a short time, so why not make it playtime all the time?

Oh and Lin-Lai:

Teaching languages over the net will be almost impossible if ye can't hear the pronunciation, why not swap numbers & give each other a call?

Anf FYI: Jonathan is a padda, 'n slymerige groen padda wat in die donkerste hoekies van die visdam wegruip en net op 'n warm Somersaand sy verskyning maak en 'n helse lawaai opskop. Dalk moet ons hom in sjokolade doop en vir Earniel gee as 'n versnapering

Hmmmm... well, I'm not exactly rich or anything. Also, I'm not too sure I want to talk with Lai on the phone. Let's keep the relationship with "freaks" (Quote from Lai herself) purely on the net, thanks. (J/k)

Ok, ok. I can't understand that. Is it in Dutch? (No need to show off K!)

It's Afrikaans not Dutch, though the Dutch guys might understand it.

Thanks. You wouldn't want talk to me on the phone? How nice of you. (not conserning the fact that it would be a little expensive).
Lin has downloaded a pronunciation software. Ha.

No, I didn't. I just clicked on the "Pronunciation" link, and the STUPID things kept on playing; "Ahhh...Bayyyy...Tsayyyyy...

But I did get a tape to speak Svenska. Fun fun.

Back to sigs- the purpose of mine is to irritate Lai. Which it does, so my life is fulfilled.

German pronunciation is just as stupid as the language itself.

It doesn't irritate me. I blieve you only want to find a way to make me angry that we can fight again (I know you miss our Legolas fights, you do). but I'm thinking of changing my sig too .... hahaha ... ps: you won't post a certain poem, no you won't

Geef mij maar kikkers in plaats van padden. Padden zijn te slijmerig. Chocolade daarentegen is altijd welkom.

Groetjes aan Baby-K in Zuidafrika.

Wow. My complete lack of knowledge with languages got something about chocolate, welcome, and South Africa. Hmmm.... *speculates*

And what is that speculation, I wonder?

*wonders whether she could put something insulting in Dutch in her sig so that nearly no one will know what it says *

*decides to drop it and go to sleep since the tiredness is making her say silly things*

I just changed my options so now I am able to see all your signitures and I like them. Especially yours, Azalea. That's one of my favorite quotes. "Who's more foolish, the fool or the fool who follows him?" It reminds me of Grima.

I didn't know there was such an option. At any rate, I wouldn't turn the sig option off anyway, because I like reading them. (For some reason I got 'Icholta' from Eärniel's sig stuck in my head for the ENTIRE day today.) I only dislike them when they are exceedingly long- how irritating.
