Just wondering how many of my fellow Star Wars fans can speak a foreign language (Does anyone speak a foreign language is pretty much what I typed.) Just wondering. Well as most of you know I speak German (South Dialect), English, Italian, and a little Portuguese. I can do basics with French but that.s it. So how about you guys?
theEviljedi
I have a book that has various German words and what they mean in English some where...I guess I'll have to find it. I also known a little Italian.
Dim
I know a very little bit of Spanish..
Dim
Hehehehe
Okay, NOBODY is allowed to talk to me in Spanish!
queeq
Ola, que tal? Por que no, senorita Dim?
My little list: Dutch, English, German, some French (enough to get by with), a little Spanish, a teeneeweeeneee Italian (which is achieved by combining Spanish, French, English and a little Latin) and then I have my hands I gesture with in any language.
queeq out
Dim
You know why...no shuuuuuuuuuuuddup
What in the world is Ola?..do you mean Hola?
queeq
No, senorita Dimmilito? "Ola" es "Hello" en espanol. Comprendre?
queeq out
Dim
Nope..Hola is Hello
queeq
I guess that's the Mexican style, then. I learnt "Ola", besides the "H" is silent anyway.

"Bo shuda, con cranthe con dande troi. Ja oska." That's Huteese. I think. Oh, yeah, by the way: Does Sebulba speak Huteese, because if so, when he says "Poodoo" after he's crashed, isn't he saying "fodder"? (Jabba says Han is "Bantha Poodoo" in ROTJ, which means "Bantha Fodder"
!
Dim
Just because you can't hear it doesn't mean you can ignore it...jeeeeeesh
Ratcat
Well I can ask for a return ticket to hamburg in German, but that's about it. I guess that by substituting another city I could just about travel to anywhere in Germany and get back again.
Gundark
I know a little French, but thats about it. My future mother in law is from Germany and teaches at a local college, but she doesn't speak it enough around the family for me to really pick up any solid verbage.
In response to TGJ, I believe that "poodoo" is a general all-purpose swear word on the outer rim. IMHO OC.
theEviljedi
I know some bad words in Italian too. My grandma taught me them.
Dim
UBH, what are those numbers for?
UnknownBountyHunter
I do, Mandarin Chinese is in fact the most widely used. And where in the world did those numbers come from?
theEviljedi
Here's a bad phrase my grandma taught me-Ah Phun Goul
queeq
So we're into foreign dirty words now... tsk tsk tsk
queeq out
theEviljedi
Does anyone know what it means?
queeq
Does anyone care?
queeq out
Dim
A fun girl?...hehehehe
queeq
Fun? Fun as in $%$%&^&%$#? I wouldn't know...
queeq out
UnknownBountyHunter
What language is that EJ?
theEviljedi
Italian.I'm not sure if I wrote it right though.
UnknownBountyHunter
Non penso la vostra ortografia esso destra, EvilJedi!
theEviljedi
Yeah sure,what you said.
Gundark
If EJ says its italian, I believe him, but it sounds like Huttese to me.
Darth Daft
I think UBH wants your autograph, EJ.
Dim
So..what does it mean?
Dim
Now, What does THAT mean?
Ratcat
Oh Dim, just go lie down with a nice mug of hot Cocoa, you'll get over it...
Dim
I don't have any!..No coffee or tea either....oh bother
theEviljedi
I'll give you a hint-Ah means "up"
Dim
Okay...now give me another hint
theEviljedi
It has a naughty word in it...well sort of
Dim
I already figured that part out
theEviljedi
It has three words.
Gundark
Thats it! I'm ordering berlitz cassettes off amazon.
UnknownBountyHunter
Communication with Gundie is finally <almost> here! Yah!
queeq
UBH turns out to be a bit of a show-off. I think you haven't covered a clever remark in German yet. Except for the title, but I doubt anyone got that but me.
queeq out
Dim
Ooooooooooh...that sounds like a challenge!
queeq
Yes, it was getting a little dull around here. Bets anyone?
queeq out
Dim
Sorry to bore you to tears Mr. queeq..Name it..I'll place my bet on UBH...
UnknownBountyHunter
By the way what are the bets on?
Dim
I don't know, I'll let queeq decide that.
queeq
Well, it wasn't really clever. He just explains that he has fun demonstrating his knowledge of other language and that he is a Star Wars fan, seen all, read all and collects expensive SW items.
So I win.
queeq out
Gundark
You're not sliming out that easy, queeq. We want a word for word translation !
UnknownBountyHunter
Gracias, queeq! The only REAL reason my collection is worth that much is because I own a $400 5' Bobba Fett (3D) that weighs 210 lbs., that stays in my bedroom!
As for you Senor queeq, you never said anything about specifics that I need to add!
theEviljedi
Here is a big hint-Phun means your.
UnknownBountyHunter
Definitely not Italian then EJ. Su=Up and Vostro=Yours
theEviljedi
Well I don't know how to write it.And FYI,goul means ass.
queeq
Well, I requested a CLEVER remark in German. But I guess that is very hard.
queeq abides
Gundark
(Gundark makes a run for the Falcon)
I'm just a dumb American....sigh.
queeq
No problem. We know.
queeq out
Gundark
But I do know what Spock found when he looked in the toilet.
Dim
So...what DID Spock find in the toilet?
UnknownBountyHunter
I will not tolerate the use of Star Trek names/codes/relative comments in this forum!!!
theEviljedi
I meant no disrespect UBH.I was mearly finishing my sentence.Ah-up,phun-your,and goul-ass.
UnknownBountyHunter
I meant Gundark's joke, EJ
queeq
"Deutsche Dose"??? That "Dose" must be some kind of slang I do not know, please explain. I know it was something you Germans were going to do to the Dutch, but I think you tried that before and we all know how that worked out.
queeq abides
queeq
Beam me up, Chewie.
queeq abides
Gundark
(Gundark uses Jedi mind trick on UBH's horse) "You will throw him off the next time he rides you" Hehehe.
queeq
You don't need a Jedi mind trick for that.
queeq abides
Gundark
UBH is gonna regret ever sharing that experience with this bunch. Hehehe
queeq
I think he regrets the experience.
queeq abides
UnknownBountyHunter
Dose is box, queeq!
As for the joke
queeq
I know. That's why I don't get it. Why would boxes beat the living daylights out of the Dutch someday? Must be German humour.
queeq abides
UnknownBountyHunter
You know what, I might have been tillied that day, so I don't know what I was thinking, I just read it again and it makes NO sense.
Gundark
UBH, you must unlearn what you have learned.
Dim
I am very very confused...
Gundark
Welcome confused ! Glad you're back.
UnknownBountyHunter
Its better if Dim stay out of this, and maybe Gundie. The women might get confused
Gundark
And now, UBH, we will discuss the location of your hidden German farm. (mind probe hovers into view)
Dim
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooh! I'm gonna remember you said that!
Gundark
(Gundark and Dim whisper quietly)
UnknownBountyHunter
Bring it on GUYS!....WAIT...Gals!!
Dim
Nah..you don't really know what you're asking for UBH..
queeq
I do and believe me, you DON'T want to know.
queeq abides
Gundark
Dim and Gundark slowly pull out their lightsabers. (Gundark sighs..I can't believe UBH wants his arse whupped again. Hehehe.
)
queeq
*hides*
Nothing's worse than angry women.
queeq abides
Gundark
"Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned" whoever said that deserves a sainthood.
queeq
If he had killed all scorned women he would have earned sainthood.
Now he was only right about something.
queeq abides
Gundark
Once again queeq displays his superior intellect for the rest of us.
Raz
Is that something like the German box knocks ??something?? from the Dutch any day?
Bin ich korrekt?
UnknownBountyHunter
Yeah, pretty much Raz, which confirms my prediction, I have no idea what I was trying to say, I can't remember and its too confusing to even comprehend as a misused sentence.
queeq
They will beat the living daylights out of the Dutch. We Dutch have had much to suffer from the Germans this century, but I can't remember any history lesson warning me for German BOXES.
queeq abides
Gundark
I guess I could try and learn a new language. I could go to German classes at the local college where my future mother-in-law teaches.
queeq
But...... why?
queeq abides
UnknownBountyHunter
So she can be bilingual
Gundark
Si, senor. Oops, wrong language.
Dim
Hmmmm....Good luck Gunnie..I'll keep guessing at the Romance languages..you can have the Teutonic.
Gundark
Je parle petit Francais.
Dim
Hmmm..okay, then you can take the Romance languages too...I'll just stick with English
