  * хуёвый, херовый - khujovyj [xu'jovɨj], kherovyj [xʲɛ'rovɨj] - adj.: very bad, miserable, faulty

amie français voila un forum similaire a 4ch pour nous http://fr2ch.bbs.fc2.com/ je compte sur vous pour faire vivre le forum

5 Name: Anonyme : 2011-09-13 04:06 ID:wwtPPe2P

Tout d'abord, je ne pense pas que le BBS de Fc2 soit un bon support pour réellement créer un équivalent francophone à 2channel. On ne voit même pas d'aperçu des posts sur la page d'accueil, seulement les titres des sujets, et de plus, la popularité du BBS baisse certainement énormément en étant "hébergé" sur fc2.

Pour créer un équivalent francophone à 2ch il faudrait :
-Utiliser un système similaire à 2ch (regarde en bas le lien vers Kareha)
-L'héberger sur un hébergeur sûrement payant (pour la qualité du service)
-Réserver un nom de domaine (payant, mais pas cher)
-S'assurer du succès d'une telle entreprise.

Les trois premières étapes sont relativement simples à mettre en place, le plus dur étant de choisir un nom convenable pour les francophones, le nom de domaine qui va avec et le design du site (entièrement copié sur 2ch ? Une touche française ?). Une fois ceci réalisé arrive l'étape la plus difficile : "rendre" le BBS populaire.

Il faut pour cela qu'un utilisateur débarquant sache ce qu'est ce BBS, quelles en sont les sections, les règles, les principes (posts anonymes, sage, concept de bump, liste des threads, rapidité et variété des sujets, etc).

How easy is French to learn?

8 Name: Anonymous Linguist : 2011-12-28 08:37 ID:1xXV/SI3

>>7
It depends. If you already speak a Roman language, it can be fairly easy. Even with English, knowing that a lot of your "more-than-three-syllables" words are almost the same in French but more common, you already have an innate amount of vocabulary.
I think the hardest is the obfuscated orthography and the legendary hard grammar.
I can say it as a fact, the majority of French don't master their own language, you can see it (alas) everywhere, from the internet to newspapers and classrooms.

The particularity of French is the irregular grammar, though. Learning the tenses for each groups of verbs is daunting and boring, you may even abandon the process when you see that irregular verbs are every-fucking-where.

My best advise to improve in French is to focus on grammar for the serious part, and for the practice, you have more than 500 years of genius literature awaiting you, from the renaissance poets and philosophers to the more modern writers.
Reading French is a very important part of learning it, for French is in my opinion much more divided between its spoken and read forms. Even for French, those that often read in their youth tend to master the language better than others.

latin (11)

1 Name: Anonymous Linguist : 2014-08-13 21:20 ID:TnokfFV1

So I graduated from middle school this year (germany). This means that I had to choose if I wanted to learn Latin for another year and get the Latin proficiency certificate that I would most likely fail anyways. I obviously chose not to go for another year and choose Japanese instead which is more fun to learn and actually useful as opposed to latin. Why am I posting this? I simply want to put my infinite harted for latin into words. There is nothing in this world that would make me do those 4 years over again. It was hell. The very moment you decide to not learn for one test or something THAT'S IT! YOU'RE DONE FOR THE NEXT 2 OR 3 YEARS. If you don't have EVERYTHING in your brain there is no chance in hell that you'll pass that next test. My friend chose to learn latin for another year. We all know that it'll be very hard. I wish him strenght. I'm afraid he might not make it. If you live in germany and plan on having kids or have kids that are going to have to chose between latin and french try to make them chose french. It's also fucking hrd but the lesser evil in my opinion. And it's again actually useful.

To all the latin students: Never give up!

Failed Latin in high school. It was the only class I've ever failed in my life.

No regrets.

3 Name: Anonymous Linguist : 2015-09-14 19:29 ID:pwv7seFN

I, like you, had to study Latin for a while in middle school (I think it corresponds to middle school. Different system). First I liked it, but I started slacking on my homework, and my grades started going down drastically, which in turn caused me to hate the subject/language.

However, in my fourth year of Latin, at the start of the year, I decided to do my homework again. And I loved it. I suddenly saw how beautiful the language looked and sounded, and how flexible the grammar was. I might never find a practical use for it, but if that's the only thing you care about, you're doing this whole life thing wrong.

4 Name: Anonymous Linguist : 2015-09-14 19:53 ID:kLtoSShj

In middle school we could only learn Spanish or French, and while I liked French, I wish there was more variety. At the other middle and high school in the area, they had shit like German and Japanese.

What's the worst language? (44)

1 Name: Anonymous Linguist : 2013-01-23 12:18 ID:IMlqzpyd

What is the worst language in your opinion? As a really wordy guy, I don't really like english. It's useful, nice to hear and easy to speak but to write, I really hate it. It's too hard and even sometimes impossible to precisely express what I'd like to say.

I'm not into japanese anymore. It's kinda cool to speak but honnestly I got fed up with the culture (few travels and a lot of disillusions). I'm more into korean and cantonese (I don't speak it very well but I'm in love with Hong Kong's cinema).

What is yours?

I know that feel. I think it's because you don't have enough practice in the language. It could happen in english as any other language that is not yours.

Yeah, english isn't a language, it is 3 different languages in trenchcoat standing on each other's shoulders pretending to be one. English sailors "colonised" half of the world at some point, spreading their language in the process. Japanese and chinese are still worse though, you need like tripple the effort to learn those.

Instead of reading Shakespeare, watch this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Looking_for_Richard . It is a movie analysis of Richard III (Richard the third) play, explaining what is actually happening in the movie. In short, it is about one guy stealing throne.

Esperanto thread!
I'm told that this book is the best in terms of how easy it is.

Not specifically esperanto but there is an awesome program called anki which is a flashcard program that figures out when the best time to review something when it is best to memorise it, plus there are tons of pre-made decks for esperanto

and of course there is stuff like lernu and kurso de esperanto, and the sidebar in the esperanto subredddit has a bunch or resources too.

some crazy folks actually went and made exactly the kind of content that motivates me to learn a language: a yuri visual novel

Ah, heard about that one. But if something is on stream it usually means its censored to shit, so I'm not that tempted to bother.

>>8 can't be censored if there's nothing to censor in the first place, though maybe that means the content itself is too tame for your wild lifestyle

How do I say "nigger" in esperanto? Nigero?

i think the correct term is "nigrulo" or "negro" but it doesn't really have the same punch to it. i saw this on wiktionary which i found kind of funny:

>negristo (“a slave merchant of Negros”)

Why would anyone spend time learning a useless language?

Very interesting...

Yeah but why not learn something useful like Latin or Japanese or Old Norse or something? Esperanto is actually useless has no literature to speak of beyond translations and you can only play patches of Touhou games in it. Seems like a huge waste of time.
