P'uck	Posted - 2008.12.22 12:06:00 - [2] Edited by: P''uck on 22/12/2008 12:06:32 Isn't funny at all when you speak german... actually it isn't funny at all regardless. It's just some subtitles to a great scene. Hubsi Kramer does a great ****** impression, which is funny per se, those subtitles are just a cheap attempt to grab some of those laughs. See, and I didn't eve invoke godwins law yet.

Shadowsword Epsilon Lyr Tau Ceti Federation	Posted - 2008.12.22 14:10:00 - [6] Originally by: P'uck just take a look on HOW MANY vids used exact the same scene over and over again for some random subtitles. Just goes to show, the scene per se is great, and if you dont understand a single word they say, it might be fun. I don't understand a word of german, but the scene subbed with Absolution bpo stuff made me laugh. ------------------------------------------

Micheal Dietrich Caldari Terradyne Networks	Posted - 2008.12.22 18:16:00 - [14] First one could have been possibly funny if they got the speed fix facts even remotely right but instead it turned into 4 minutes of rehashed fail. But the BPO one.............
Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2008.12.22 18:56:00 - [15] How can you speak English and not understand German at least a little bit ? They're so similar... _ Create a character \|\| Fit a ship \|\| Get some ISK

They're so similar... They're different enough. Well, I never took a German language class and never read any "learn German" books, all I did was watch German television (immediately post-Romanian revolution that was about the only non-local TV we got). Took me about half a year of sporadic watching to be able to understand the basics pretty well simply by association with similar English words, and about two years to understand almost everything. Could have never done that if they wouldn't be remarkably similar... tried the same with Hungarian for over 6 years before that (my city is pretty close to the border, communist Romania television sucked, so we watched Hungarian TV a lot), I also tried to get some kind of lessons from Hungarian-speaking friends, never managed to understand much of it. I still can't read German properly though (only slowly), and writing it is even more bothersome (plus, nowadays I watch stuff almost exclusively in English). _ Create a character \|\| Fit a ship \|\| Get some ISK

Not everyone has spent 2 years watching German news however.

Kessiaan Minmatar Army of One	Posted - 2008.12.23 04:08:00 - [23] Originally by: Micheal Dietrich First one could have been possibly funny if they got the speed fix facts even remotely right but instead it turned into 4 minutes of rehashed fail. I thought that fact that he was spouting all the inaccurate bull**** we heard in the days and weeks leading up to the nerf going on TQ just made it more funny. And no, I don't speak German. German and English are close enough that someone speaking German sounds a lot like someone speaking gibberish English (verses other languages that are obviously other languages), but I can't understand any of it. ... besides, I've said all I'm going to say. You're reading my sig now! Bwa! -

I still can't read German properly though (only slowly), and writing it is even more bothersome (plus, nowadays I watch stuff almost exclusively in English). Also to be helpful, Romanian and German are both Indo-European languages, whilst Hungarian isn't. So you'd have a definite leg up with German. Plus, Romanian's Slavic influences probably help one understand German. Originally by: Kazuma Saruwatari F'nog for Amarr Emperor. Nuff said Originally by: Chribba Go F'nog! You're a hero!

TimMc Gallente Brutal Deliverance OWN Alliance	Posted - 2008.12.23 10:15:00 - [25] Originally by: Surfin's PlunderBunny I speak English and Australian American and English here... with some bad German to mix. I think all the German I can remember are the insults.

Akita T Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2008.12.23 16:40:00 - [27] Originally by: Ren Surkova 'heh, why yes I am akita t, I can pretty much guess most european languages, I mean honestly, a child could decipher them. at least a child who hasn't been purged for being dumb' You say that in a sarcastic way, I'd say that in a mostly serious tone (at least for languages with a latin root) Italian, French, English, German - those are a given, if only by the sheer familiarity (the former) or exposure (the latter). Spanish and Portugese, not that easy (lower exposure but pretty familiar) yet undestandable. Dutch, Sweedish and Norwegian... not so much, at least in context and in person it's not impossible (but since almost everybody that speaks one of those is bound to also speak English, not so important). It's the slavic and fino-hungric ones that are a problem. _ Create a character \|\| Fit a ship \|\| Get some ISK

If you happen to speak both, dutch is really easy edit: also, stackenblocken

It's the slavic and fino-hungric ones that are a problem. Anyone even slightly familiar with latin can tell you that, it's just the thought of you fumbling through languages with their own nuances/dialects after watching the news and saying to yourself 'language decoded' that amuses me, more so than your usual bitter 'let's heap scorn onto anyone who's kissed a girl/didn't like the original fallout/enjoys christmas, because they're obviously dumb as bricks' approach to things sig filla, thread killa
KingsGambit Caldari Knights	Posted - 2008.12.23 17:09:00 - [30] There's a whole series of these videos, this video clip with varying subtitles. The comedy value relies on not understanding the actual words and I think some are very funny. Examples (not necessarily the best ones): Banned from Xbox Live! (Part 2 - Wavey wavey!) Red ring of death Ronaldo leaving Man U Lampard to sign with Inter etc etc Regarding the similarity between English and German, they are not so similar as to be able to understand vocabulary without already knowing the words. Whereas in Spanish and Italian for example 'To Walk': Sp - Caminar --- It - Camminare. In German it's 'Gehen'. The Sp & Italian are very similar gramatically, and understanding one you can reasonably guess the other. The english and german vocabulary is very, very different. There may be words in common as all 'latin' languages have to a degree, but it's unreasonable to suppose anyone could understand german or english from their knowledge of the other. Further, german, like french, italian and spanish, has gender which english does not. The girl - das MSdchen The boy - der Junge The one thing they do have in common however, and I guess is what Akita T was implying, is that they are the closest 'structurally'. Like Spanish and Italian, eng/ger share a very similar structure which makes it easier for a speaker of one to learn the other. Eg: English - The red ball German - die rote Kugel (literally 'the red ball') French - la boule rouge (literally 'the ball red') Spanish - la bola roja (" " " ") Italian - la palla rossa (" " " ") There are other similarities (and differences) but while you can concede that english & german share a similar structure, the vocab is totally different and unlike spanish/italian (for example), you cannot make a reasonable guess as to what something means based on your understanding of the other language. I remember hearing Swedish and Norweigan were Similar with the Finnish being the odd one out in scandinavia (could be other way round tho!). Anyone? -------------
