Languages skills, do you have any?

[E5RANGER375]

yes yes & yes. never know when one might have to blend in, so i wont say more than that

 

[M67]

I just have a way with words that makes some people mad. Does that count?

On a side note, I understand cajun.

But I can't usually make heads or tails of ebonics

Forumish challenged

I'm pretty fair at English grammer, spelling, punctuation, and I know where the Shift key is. This apparently means I'm not very good at Forumish.

Lived in Brazil for 6 months and am fluent in Portuguese (not very useful in Indiana), but I can understand some Spanish because the two languages are similar.

No.

I took 2 years of Russian in college. I sucked at it.


and Russian sucks.

Russian doesn't suck. You may be inept at it but it isn't the languages fault. I was a Russian Linguist for the US army for 4 years. Lived on the economy in FRG for about 3 years and learned some German and had 3 years of french in H/S that let me test out of 4 semesters of french in College. The problem now is trying not to speak in three languages in the same sentence.

You're going to have to learn SPANISH when obama opens the border

Now you are assuming the borders were ever closed

After being a cop for 13 years I have become pretty fluent in drunkenees, hillbilly, and ebonics..........not sure how much that will help when SHTF, but it comes in handy now.

Knowing Spainish would be very helpful in my area or just about anywhere now. I always wish I knew what they were saying. On second thought, it is probably just as well I didn't.

 

[rmabrey]

I took 6 years of french, I never used it enough to really remember how to speak it, I can understand it and read it but not write or speak. Currently taking spanish

 

[2ADMNLOVER]

I can't speak any foreign languages but I'm pretty sure that a .230 Gr JHP is a universal translator .

Easy to pick up languages when you are a kid but I doubt I could get very far these days. My mother was French and I lived on the left coast when i first came to the US, so Spanish was a necessity.

Talking with neighbors while growing up accounts for the others. I could probably say "can I hunt baboons here?" in more languages than I can recall.

I have high school and college German but am forgetting the verbs over the years.

Is baboon good eatin'?
