There was this great suggestion from Ririen, a new member, she wanted to teach here language. I thought I make a new topic of that because it would be asome to learn new words.
So perhaps we can start here.
I say a word in Dutch, with translation to english, and someone else say the same word in their native language
I start here with
Hallo, goedemorgen, goedemiddag, goedeavond,
Hello, good morning, good afternoon, good evening
Who is next?

I can do it in German as well:
Hallo, goedemorgen, goedemiddag, goedeavond,
Hello, good morning, good afternoon, good evening
Guten Tag, Guten Morgen, Guten Mittag, Guten Abend

some will say it is very difficult and some think it is very easy. Yesterday I heard on the radio that there was a greek man that had learned 50 languages including dutch and he said that dutch was very easy.
I think the start is easy, we have words which are the same in English, or sometimes in German and even in French.
But making the sentences is the hard part.

I speak English........but know a little spanish
My name is
me llamo
Just by listening it seems to the that the most difficult languages to learn would be the asian ones or vietnamese. I have a vietnamese friend who has tried to help me a little with the language and he laughs at me as I try to speak it. Not sure if my deep southern accent has anything to do with it......but I have tried lol.

ouch, that is indeed very difficult, how to pronounce the words. Veel geluk, i think you would say Veel = like veal geluk = like keeluck, in englisch you do not say the g like us, that is how we mostly identify foreign people talking dutch,  |
