我是神吗？ （what's my name?) 您好，我是wout。我不知道我 名称。(Hi everyone, I'm wout. I don't know my name. - in chinese -) (I had some google translate help here.) But usually ''when you see something amazing you say wow ...t'' is also a part of my introduction. So I would love to be able to use that sentence in chinese as well. 谢谢， zai jin. XD

Where would you look if you want to learn a rare (weird) language.

Hi everyone,

 

Now I know it says for learning English but frankly I think my English is good enough.

I'm trying to learn a ton of languages, because I gave myself the challenge to be able to converse in 30 languages by the time I turn 30 and of course for some languages it is easy to find good resources that are cheap, easy, fast and fun to learn from but where do you look when you want to learn some more unusual languages?

For example Ber solago (if I'm not butchering the name I'm not sure what it was called again.)

is a language that isn't spoken but wistled and only used by about 22000 people.

Don't think that makes it somewhat a bit harder to bump into one than Chinese or German or Spanish that you can fire your language skills at. Never the less I think that it sounds like a awesome language to speak uh wistle and there are other interesting languages that may be a bit more difficult to come across.

Try finding a native speaker for Akadian might be quit a search I imagine as well as it would be with other dead languages.

However even with more commonly spoken languages you can still have trouble finding great resources like with Tamazight, Dutch sign language or Dothraki.

 

And then there are issues about obstacles within the languages themself.

How do you make notes for Sign languages? Drawing?, have you seen my drawing?, most 5 year old can probably beat me when it comes to that. Or how would you keep the overview at what's what with for example polysyntathic languages. (languages where sentences consist of only one long almost unpronounceable word unless your a native)

 

I am very curious to what your opinions and or approach would be to something like that.

Let me know how you would tackle the problem, the unfindable resources and the tricky challenges inside a language.

 

I'm looking forward to your comments.

 

Kind regards,

Wout.

Sprache lernen und Hypnose Heute ich habe ein Workshop Selbhypnose gehad. Da war sehr viel Information und es war sehr interessant. Es ist möglich um Hypnoze zu benutzen fur Sprache lernen. Ist das nicht Toll? Und da ist auch ein Möglichkeit das Sie es zur Skype kan tun. Ich müsste einfachlich auf Italki denke wann ich das herde. Ist das nicht was für Italki, schnell ausländische Sprache lernen? Was denke Sie auf es ist es Interessant sall ich Sie informieren wann ich etwas neue lernen? Lass mich es wissen. (In English for those who can't speak German yet. Because I think that this is something that everyone here on italki could benefit from. Plus if I made any mistakes, this way you'll know what I wanted to write) Today I had a workshop self hypnosis. There was a lot of information and it was VERY (not a typo) interesting. It's possible to use hypnosis to learn foreign languages. (actually it has a lot more possible applications too and the languages that you study this way are going faster and easier from what I've gathered so far but I'm not making any promises YET. Let's first gather and try it a little bit shall we?) And it's also possible to do it through Skype. I simply immediately had to think of italki when I heard this. What do you think isn't this something for italki, learning foreign languages fast? Do you think this is interesting and shall/should I inform you if I learn anything new? Let me know.

my view on my teachers (they are god and demon) よみんなさん、 私の先生はかみとおにです。かみさまで本当に好き名からいっぱいでべんぎょうするをできますから。 でも少しおにです、そちらは高いですよね。でもとにかくあちらはいいですよね。じゃ次で何をかいてませんのか？ (what I pretty much intended to write) hi everyone, My teacher are gods are gods and demons. Gods because they make it possible for me to study. But they are a little bit demons. They are expensive don't you think. But anyway, they are good don't you think? Oke what should I be writing next? (I know that more kanji's could have been used but these are -some of- the once that I know)

Write a story part 4 I then ran across the fruit section and grabbed an avocado with me. I threw it and this made another loud noise as a lot products fell to the ground and the avocado rolled under a couple of boxes. And I kept running then I took the next left, the aisle after the one that I had just messed up. Coming after me the thug thought I had hit the cabinet there and went that way. Confused when he didn't see me and because he didn't hear me running either he didn't know where to look or which way to go. This was the moment I grabbed and launched myself against the cabinet with my entire weight and all off my strength and pushed it over. Not knowing what to do the cabinet landed on top of the thug trapping him underneath. 4 Then a couple of policemen wearing vests came around the corner and arrested the thug. I became the hero off the day, but got scolded by the cops for my recklessness that had almost gotten me and a lot other innocent people killed. At my work everyone had seen the news and I didn't get fired, they even offered me a promotion to become a spokesmen for the company because of my heroism. But I didn't take the job because I didn't want to work for that ungrateful bunch anymore. Among one of the people I saved there was a beautiful girl whose father was so happy that he offered me a job there. And the girl and I are now dating. Apparently there was also a reward for the person who gave a tip to arrest the thug who was wanted for previous crimes. I'll be receiving this soon and with that I'll be able to repay my debt. What do think of the story? Was it exciting to read? And would you like to read more story's like this one? It shows a person’s understanding off story-plot, character-building and a lot more. Getting feedback is also very important if I want to try writing a book which I’m trying to do. Obviously this didn't really happen (writing ideas suggest something like that) the numbers in the story refer to the picture on which I was told to base the story. 1 A grocery store. 2 Running people. 3 A bad guy. and 4 A bad guy in jail. I was also told to begin the story with Last saterday. With a few changes here and there a couple more pages, do you think it could function as a prologue for a book? Would you read it? Or should I give up?

Write a story part 3 Hearing this I quickly went to the employee-exit and opened the door. Because I was already way too late for work I had no job to return to anyway, so I decided that I would make sure that the people inside would not have to suffer because of me. I looked around and one of the cops saw me and ran towards me because he recognized me from the tape in the market. I then showed him the exit I used to get out and when he went back to get more police officers to storm the building I slipped back in leaving the door for a tiny crack open. I told myself I was crazy for going back in but something inside me drove to just go back in and take my responsibility. But I didn't look around me very well and accidently knocked over a couple of boxes that made one hell of a noise. At this sound the thug grinned and shouted that he would hunted me down and kill me, after I saw how he would kill one of the other hostages. I got overcame with fear and as the adrenalin rushed through my veins I ran for my life. Then I heard a sharp click one that I had heard earlier I recognized this sound as the sound of the gun being readied to fire. As I looked to my right I saw how the thug pointed his gun at me and was going to shoot. A thought flashed through my mind. What happened to making me look first? I rolled and the gun shot.While rolling I looked to the side and saw how the bullet passed me, missing me by only half an inch and exploded on the other end causing a fountain of soda. I hurled back to my feet and ran. Thinking by myself I realized how surprised I was that I was still able to run I had never been very athletic but I guess even a clumsy guy can be good when he stares in the face of death. Without realizing I drew the thug away from the exit I had used to enter the building again. I then heard a dozen of loud footsteps running from that door towards the hostages and realized that this would have to have been the police, probably the SWAT. We - the thug and I - then heard exclamations of relieve. This enraged the thug so much that he yelled he would at least get me. Great now he was even more determined to kill me. So the other hostages were going to be save. Now I had to make sure I would also get out of here safely.

Write a story part 2 . So when the man leapt towards the thug, I quickly and as silent as I could ran to a different aisle. The thug then kicked him in the stomach gave him a knee to the face pointed his gun at him and told him to open up his mouth. He then put the barrel of his shotgun into the mouth of the poor man and pulled the trigger. His head exploded, with blood splashing around. As he did this the thug laughed manically and said in a loud voice so everyone could hear it. 'If I see cops I'll kill hostages, if you decide to breach I'll kill hostages If anyone tries anything or goes missing I'll kill hostages and if you don't have my demands ready within two hours I'll kill all thirty-something hostages one-by-one. He then hang up and walked back.'

Write a story part 1 ( though this might get a bit bloody later on) 1 Last Saturday I was in the supermarket doing groceries shopping the woman in front of me in the line to the counter was in a dragging conversation with the clerk. 2 About how there had been so many robberies lately and that some of the thieves had pulled another heist at a bank. Where they had trapped all the customers and personal inside the bank, blew up the vault, taken all the money inside and killed all the hostages. All but one off the robbers had been caught, so one of them was still at large. At that moment I just wished they would hurry up a little because I had very little time, still mountains of work to do, a debt to sort out and if I wanted to keep my job I would have to get there on time, because I had been late a little too many times now. 3 When I saw some businessman run across the window and heard the screams of people in fear of their life's. That was the moment when a man holding a gun came rushing in. As he discharged his gun inside the store he told everyone to not make a move and gestured to the supermarket personal to close and barricade the entrances and exits. This of course caused a huge panic with some people trying to find a way to escape, while others were seeking safe shelter behind boxes while others fell on their knees and begged for their lives and one guy even took a dive into a freezer. I would probably have been able to get away if that stupid woman hadn't been in the way. Some people did get away but most of us gave up when he shot one of the fleeing woman in the back. He then drove us all together into a corner in the supermarket and told us to throw our cell phones in front of us. He then destroyed them. And as we sat there and cursed our fates, the phone of the supermarket rang. We carefully told the man to pick up the phone and he looked with such a crazy and paranoid look at us that I thought we wouldn't make it out of there alive. But as if it was for a miracle he did what we asked him as he went backwards towards the phone while keeping us under shot he picked up the phone. We then heard that it was the police and they wanted to know what his demands were. While the thug was talking to the police telling them he wanted a couple million and a safe way out of the country I saw one man on the other end of the group slowly getting to his feet. I knew this man would try something stupid, but it would also cause a distraction that I could use to sneak away.
