quote:os pobre coitados não entendem o que é falar (ou escrever) uma língua suave e melíflua e assim é de se esperar que eles tentam inventar qualquer coisa para se desculparem de sua ignôrancia.
Por favor. Pobres ustedes, que tienen que hablar un idioma tan nasal. Supongo que sonaría yo medio brasileño con gripe. Y sus 'erres' que carraspean como medio franceses... ay de ustedes, en serio.
quote:De vez em quando nos temos umas rixas para determinar qual é o idioma mais bonito- o espanhol ou o português. O bom da sua chegada é que agora teremos mais soldados de nosso lado para triunfar sobre os malditos faldores de espanhol.
Será dificil triunfar cuando la verdad es tan diáfana: el español simplemente ha producido mejor poesía, novelas y canciones que el portugués jamás. Y los españoles no usaban esclavos, así que existe una moralidad superior en nuestra cultura e idioma, también.

Ai! Sabia que a maldita tigelinha nao deixaria esta chance de mostrar sua ignorancia passar.
Quanto ao membro que usamos para falar portugues, certamente o nariz entra no assunto de vez em quando, mas pelo menos nao falamos pela bunda como certas pessoas que conheço. Como voce ousa pronunciar maior moralidade no seu canto? Maior hipocrisia sim, mas moralidade nao. Concedo que os espanhois nao tinham escravos, mas é verdade que tinham milhares de servos que tinham que trabalhar contra sua vontade sem serem pagos. Mas pelo menos nao eram escravos

Americano ignorante que es, percebi que trocaste a ordem de suas palavras sem querer. Arruma-los-ei para ti: el español simplemente jamás ha producido mejor poesía, novelas y canciones que el portugués.

Gah I HATE spell checks of all kinds. The majority of them tend to "catch" my name, and then suggest that maybe I meant Manure?

When people talk about me in a language I don't understand I like to think they're saying I'm the smartest, funniest, most hottest thing to sizzle fo'nizzle on Hatrack.
Please don't destroy this delusion by translating.
Okay, so you haven't got a clue who I am, but I'm Lissa's fellow sister in heresy. We're cool like that. Plus, my constant mocking keeps her humble - and we all know she needs it.
Hiya to you, too, Eduardo. Welcome to hatrack, both.

I'm not sure Tzadik knew I was a heretic, even by our special definition thereof...though really, if he hasn't guessed it by now... Posts: 2762 | Registered: Sep 1999

But PB, this was intended as advice for absolute newbies, just the bare-bones essentials of getting around. The discernment required to distinguish the P from the B identities generally requires time to develop, and needn't be attempted at all the first few months. You know?

Hi Tzadik. I think I know of you by hearsay! Does your real name start with an "M"? Welcome to hatrack! This is the real gauntlet you have to run, you know. No pressure, or anything, though. Don't worry! You liked Ender's Game, so you must be a keeper.
And welcome, too, to Eduardo_Sauron! People from outside the U.S. are always particularly welcome, because we need a broader perspective. Welcome, welcome!
And both of you have excellent English. We will soon fix that problem! We will be bad examples and mix you up completely. But don't worry, the grammar nazis will then chime in and set everyone straight again.

Definitively English. You can easily find someone speaking a little English, which is enough to be understood.

Oui, sinon ça va devenir une vraie tour de Babel... Dangereux, sans compter que ce forum prêche pour l'amitié et la compréhension entre les peuples et les gens . For those who wonder, I just told to stop speaking anything else than English because it's easier to understand and be understood I also told that Babel tower is dangerous and that this forum is here for the comprehension between people.

People...let's stop arguing about Spanish and Portuguese (which is more beautiful, etc.), ok? Both are wonderful, rich languages, and powerful Latin offsprings.
Pessoal que fala português e me felicitou, muito obrigado! Já estou me sentindo bem em casa, por aqui! :-)))

Nobody's really arguing here . . . it's just a friendly rivalry. If it seems more heated than that, it's just because we know each other well enough to not take each other seriously on this issue. Nobody's getting mad, I promise. Posts: 1001 | Registered: Dec 2002

to Rivka and Mrs.M:
Lissande is correct. I like it though, that's why I chose it.
Wow, this threat was rather active over the weekend! Impressive!

The first time ieSpell picks up anyone's name or sn, I simply click "Add" -- and then it will pick up when I mis-type it!
As I mentioned, I like your handle, Tzadik. Do you speak Hebrew? Or did you just happen to learn the word?

morning rivka, (at least it's morning here)
no, don't speak hebrew - i know words, phrases, learnt the alef-bejt, but that was about it - I can read the letters, but they don't form words for me I love the way hebrew sounds though!
So as far as picking up the handle - it was deliberate
Good to be back here, how's life?
