Jell, you have to see "Cat From Outer Space". It is the best movie in existence. Go watch it or I will eat your cats. 'jellsprout' said: As a kid I always thought tennisballs looked delicious and I liked biting them. I still remember the feel of the fuzz on my teeth and tongue. | |

Would it be legitimate to briefly suspend bang_jan for spam in this topic? | |

I will stop posting in this thread for 5 days if that's okay with the staff. | |

What percentage of this board is made up of bang_jan's post? 'Livio' said: You know, I was thinking of getting an internship at Microsoft, but I'm not sure I want their lameness to rub off on me. | |

I think I've said this before, but I do not answer questions in binary. At least not if I don't feel like it. A warning would be better. I don't think any staff member is opposed to the idea of you not posting in this thread for a while. I am guessing about 3%. He only started asking a lot of questions this past year. Spoiler: | |

Do you believe that everyone should switch to a language such as Esperanto or do you believe that there should be linguistic diversity? | |

I think everyone should learn English as a secondary language for international communication, but should still keep their primary language for day-to-day communication. I would actually prefer Latin over English, as English is pretty much the worst language ever conceived, but so many people already know English that it would be more convenient. Spoiler: | |

Are you seriously calling a language with the abomination called deponent verbs a good language | |

Yes. Better than English, at least. Spoiler: | |

Why not a language like Chinese? I think that's the most spoken language in the world. | |

english seems by far most spoken. pretty much every businessman in china knows english, or is learning. 'Livio' said: You know, I was thinking of getting an internship at Microsoft, but I'm not sure I want their lameness to rub off on me. | |

The top three appear to be Mandarin, English, and Spanish. But that's besides the point. I meant to ask "Why not a non-romantic and non-germanic language like Chinese?" | |

Chinese is not a language. I think you mean Mandarin. And I think English could very well be the most spoken language in the world. It is just not the most common first language in the world. India has like 500 different languages, so the Indians mostly speak English to communicate with each other. That is already the second largest country in the world. In comparison, Mandarin is spoken only in China and it isn't even the only first language spoken there. Same with Spanish. There are a lot of people who speak it as a first language, but not that many who speak it is a second. Spoiler: | |

why does the saying go "at me wits end" as opposed to, say, "at my wick's end" because, ya know, a wick is what keeps a candle burning, and when it ends its done or handled all it can handle, which is essentially what the saying is, well, saying EDIT: I have actually heard people say wicks end, but I MUCH more commonly hear people say wits end Spoiler: | |

I just thought it meant they no longer knew what to do, that their wits had run out. Spoiler: | |

also, do you think Rosetta Stone is an effective tool for language learning? I currently (as in just a few hours ago) started learning Polish via Rosetta Stone Spoiler: | |
