- Can a German speaker still understand me? Hey all! I'm in love with the German language and I'd love to speak it. However, I do not want to go through all the tough grammatical rules, the case system, and the lack of a uniform plural form of nouns. So I thought, what if I make things a bit more easy. 1. Instead of having der,die,das,dem,des why not delete the grammatic gender and case system and just use das to mean the. 2. ein = a 3. Use the basic form of ein and der words (meine,deine,seine,ihre etc.) and (welche, jede, etc.) 4. Instead of learning the plural form of every noun.. just use S : kinds, manns, fraus, lands. However, I will not do any changes to verbs and I'll keep all the irregulars as they are. Q: If I do all this.. will a German speaker still understand me? Ex: Ich bin mit meine freunds nach London gefahren Ich esse ein gross apfelsine in das flughafen. Vielen DankJanuary 28, 201340
- This (mas.) : Hayda This (fem) : Haydi The ta2 marbou6a in Lebanese is usually pronounced as é in French as in café. we usually write an H in Eh (yes) but we don't really pronounce it. As for Hazine and Mabsou6a.. most feminine adjectives end with é but only few add an A like mabsou6a. 3andy or 3ande.. both r right.. it's important to note that within the Lebanese dialect there r variations that depend on the person's religion and the region or city that person is from. As for ana feniyeh.. it's a cultural thing. The Phoenicians are thought to be the Ancient Lebanese people. A lot of Lebanese, mainly non-Muslims believe that if they say they r Arab then people will assume that they are Muslim, so for them to differentiate themselves from Muslims they say they are Phoenician.. It's also a political ideology that says that the Arabs forced their language on the Phoenicians and that's how they became somewhat Arabs but they aren't really so. So it's not a linguistic issue but rather a cultural-religious-political issue. I hope this was helpful. If u need any futher assistance I'm ready to help.0 votedJanuary 17, 20130
- A lot of people think that by becoming rich they'll find happiness but that is not true. Why? Well, now u'll put a lot of effort and sacrifice a lot to get rich and when u'r in fact rich, u'll put the same amount of effort if not more to sustain ur wealth or increase it. U'll never have enough, the more u get the more u want. U'll most probably stop appreciating little things, u won't be satisfied with what u've got, many people will try to take ur wealth away from u or just want u for ur wealth. Finally, u can spend ur whole life working on getting rich with no use. Be happy with what u've got bcz there r others who don't have a quarter of what u have. Do ur best always and remember to actually live ur life and enjoy it. What's the use of millions in the bank when u'r too old and sick to spend them? take care.0 votedAugust 23, 20120
- Helloz :) If you say "ما هو عمرك؟" you will be understood, however it's not correct Arabic. The correct question is "كم عمرك؟" meaning how much your age. I know it sounds weird for English ears but that's how it works. For the answer you say "عمري أربعة وعشرون سنة" عمري = my age أربعة وعشرون = literally means four and twenty سنة = year I hope this answers your question. T.C0 votedAugust 8, 20123
