Who here can speak a language, other than English?

I just really like languages, I find them quite interesting!
@Boleuskas

@XenonRush no, Croatian, Serbian, and Bosnian are pretty much same, you say as you write, and you write as you speak

does the "r" get rolled when speaking in Croatian?
@Boleuskas

@XenonRush Nynorsk

How much bokmal can you understand?
@BarbossasHusband

@XenonRush all of it. The languages are very similar. Like north vs south states.

@XenonRush Ever spent your life wanting to go "home", but not really knowing where "home" is - only that you don't belong where you are???

Well, that's how I felt for most of my life... until I started to read Dutch - even though I didn't understand the language, it calmed me and I could breathe for the first time.

Since I've been learning Dutch, I've generally felt calmer in myself and the same frustration and sense of "not belonging" hasn't returned.

That is really cool, actually! How fluent are you in Dutch right now?
@HootyTheNightOwl

@XenonRush I'm at the point where I can translate some short written messages by myself and songs are gradually revealing themselves to me as I learn more words.

However... I'm not yet confident with my spoken Dutch. I need to relax more and stop rushing my speech because I am nervous.

@IloveJ Sometimes all in the same conversation... 🤭🤭🤭
