any scandinavian ags-users here?

[12431]

I'm just curious.
For me it would be great if we could have this topic where we could speak scandinavian to eachother.

I understand norwegian, english, swedish, danish, and a little german.

det ville vært greit å kanskje møte noen norske her som kanskje kunne fortelle meg litt om deres prosjekt, og jeg om mitt til dem.

[Andail]

Firstly, yes, there are many scandinavians here.
Secondly, no, we don't need to speak scandinavian to eachother.
Why? Because it would exclude far more people than it would include, making it impossible for the rest of the forum to read something that to us is just somewhat more comfortable than plain English.

Remember what happened to the tower of Babel.
They all tried to speak in one single language, and....and...hm...
well, forget about the tower of Babel. Read the rules instead

[Las Naranjas]

We didn't go through half a century of linguistic imperialism for nothing.

[Quickstrike]

There are many Americans here (I being one of them) and we refuse to learn other languages, sometimes we pretend they don't exist.  Humor us by speaking English in this fourm.  You can speak German in the German fourm (pardon my obviousness) if you need to talk to the large ammount of German users.  It's found on the fourm page.

Quickstrike to smieszny krasnoludek.

[auhsor]

With knowing heaps of languages, its always helpful for translating.

[visy^school]

I am finnish.

*dances*

[n3tgraph]

what if we all started writing in our own language.....

it would suck!
and you know what? If it weren't for those bloody english, we'd probably be talking dutch now  


j/k

[Ufke]

i'll be a scandinavian in about 10 years

[Czar]

Everyone speaks his own language?OK.  
Nije bed , mogu i ja tako, a može i dosta njih.....

[12431]

greit! jeg skal snakke engelsk om det betyr så jævla mye!
(translation)

fine! i'll speak english if it means so damn much to you people!

[AndersM]

Klart man är skandinav. Något annat duger ju inte, eller hur?

[jannar85]

Hello there!
Good to see another fellow norwegian AGS user here!
Welcome!

I'm from Mosjøen, Norway...
Now, what about keep that DNA site rolling?

[AJA]

Me from Finland...

Kysynpähän vaan, että osaako kukaan muu AGSläinen puhua suomea kuin me suomalaiset?

Translation: I'm just asking: Can any non-Finnish AGSers speak Finnish?

Jannar, you can have my DNA any time... (btw, what was DNA's url again?)

[Ufke]

i'm learning swedish...

jag heter roel
jag kvunnit blå vacker
jag äta ett äpple

or something like that...

and of course:
how to pick up a girl in sweden:

hej, flicka!
öl?
kysse!
hej då!

[12431]

I have a friend who can speak samish, but that's as close as you'll get

[AJA]

jag äta ett äpple

Should be: Jag äter ett äpple. But anyway...

Jag heter Aki. Jag bor i Nastola i Finland. Jag är 15 år gammal. Jag är intresserad av datorer. Jag har en katt som heter Doris. Doris är en brun katt fast det ser ut svart.

Nevermind... correct me if there were any mistakes..

[Ufke]

Should be: Jag äter ett äpple. But anyway...

i was very close...

gisteren ben ik naar de bibliotheek geweest en heb daar gekeken naar boeken. dat was niet echt leuk.

(i went to the library yesterday and i looked at some books. that wasn't any fun.)

[x0z]

Mä osaan kyl puhuu Finskaa!
Jag kan talar Finska!
I can speak Finnish!

Finland is not in Scandinavian!

[Ufke]

Finland is not in Scandinavian!

and iceland?

[Rincewind]

Well, I'm swedish. I don't speak - but I do understand norse and dannish.

And I love that pick-up line, Ufke! Hehe...

"Hello, Girl!
Beer?
Kiss!
Goodbye!"

[x0z]

Jag kan inte talar Svenska!

[Ufke]

And I love that pick-up line, Ufke! Hehe...

"Hello, Girl!
Beer?
Kiss!
Goodbye!"

thanks, will any swedish girl fall for this?

[12431]

well, the swedes aren't really bright. swedish girls are easy.

reply to x0z: talar ni svensk? det kan jeg ikke, men jeg prøver!

are there any rules in this forum that says you can't speak your own language?

+ what's wrong with you americans?! why are you so stuck up and act so superior!?!

one more thing: are political topics against forum rules?

[Las Naranjas]

hahahahaha, if so, then DG is the shittest moderator ever.

[Trapezoid]

+ what's wrong with you americans?! why are you so stuck up and act so superior!?!

The boards are mostly run by Brits.

[Las Naranjas]

It's just that Englsih is understood by the greatest number of community members.

And Communities are built on communication. There's no real reason to prevent talking in other languages, but it'd be stupid to do so, since you'd be missing out on interaction with alot of people.

[Quickstrike]

Yo yo yo!  Wazzap peeps in da hood.  Oh crap!  I can't speak American inner-city slang!  I've got an A in English!

[Andail]

well, the swedes aren't really bright. swedish girls are easy.

He he...why don't you come over to mittens to prove these questionable standpoints?

are there any rules in this forum that says you can't speak your own language?

Yes, in the "Read before posting"-thread. You read this, right?

[Rincewind]

And I love that pick-up line, Ufke! Hehe...

"Hello, Girl!
Beer?
Kiss!
Goodbye!"

thanks, will any swedish girl fall for this?

Well, maybe the really dumb ones, or those who still live in the stoneage...  

[Pet Terry]

I'm from Finland.

What is actually going on with DNA?

[AndersM]

jag kvunnit blå vacker

What the **** does that mean? I thaught I knew swedish since I'd lived here for 23 years, But I can't even guess what that means...  

And the pickup-line is far to long. its enought to just say 'My place or yours?' or 'What a beautyfull dress, it would look so good on the floor of my bedroom'

[Ufke]

What the **** does that mean? I thaught I knew swedish since I'd lived here for 23 years, But I can't even guess what that means...  

An Internet-site said it was "I think blue is beautiful"

And the pickup-line is far to long. its enought to just say 'My place or yours?' or 'What a beautyfull dress, it would look so good on the floor of my bedroom'

And how do I say that in Swedish?  

[AndersM]

I think blue is beautyfull: Jag tycker blått är vackert.

What a beautyfull dress...: 'Vilken vacker klänning, den skulle passa på mitt sovrumsgolv'

[Ufke]

thank you  8)

[AndersM]

Isn't it hard to write an 'Ã¥' with an english keyboard?

[Ufke]

Ff you want to use that pick-up line in Holland you'll have to say:

Wat een mooie jurk, die past erg goed bij de vloer van m'n slaapkamer.

Or a more simple question, the dress-question is maybe too much information for Dutch girls:

Hallo, neuken?

(Hi, wanna f*ck?)

[Ufke]

Isn't it hard to write an 'Ã¥' with an english keyboard?

not really...

ALT-134=Ã¥
ALT-143=Å 

[AndersM]

Ahaa.... ä and ö must be easier cos they are made with the ^¨~ -key, right? but i dunno 'cos å, ä and ö got their own keys on my keyboard

[Ufke]

Ahaa.... ä and ö must be easier cos they are made with the ^¨~ -key, right? but i dunno 'cos å, ä and ö got their own keys on my keyboard

Yes I can use the "o thing for ö but a lot of people can't, I don't know why I can... My keyboard loves me I guess...

[Scarpia]

I am from Denmark.... And frankly, I think it's time the Brits and Americans learn all of our languages, since we all learned theirs.

Quick Danish course for Americans and British People:

we = vi
us = os
ice = is
see = se
they = de
them = dem
that = at

one = en
two = to
three = tre
.
.
.

and, perhaps the most important sentence to learn, it can be used for nearly anything:

"JEG HAR TISSET I DEN"

(but you'll probably not want to use it as a pick-up line, not even in sweden)



/Scarpia - danish is very easy

[AndersM]

Danska är iallafall nästan lika lätt som svenska, eller hur Scarpia?

[Pumaman]

Yes, forum policy is to speak English.

This is because it is a language that everybody here understands (since AGS is only available in English, you wouldn't be here if you couldn't understand it).

This has nothing to do with lazy Americans/Brits/whatever, this is simply a rule so that everybody can understand everybody else, and I would hope it goes without saying.

There is an unofficial German forum linked from the Forums page on the AGS website if you really have a burning need not to speak English.

[AJA]

But what harm could it do if there were just one thread where you could post in any language (with translation of course)? But on the other hand then some would probably think that it's okay to post in any language anywhere on these forums...  

[jannar85]

Keep it to the PMs.
