To draw this must have taken a loooot of time!
It's fascinating, all this little... wheels... (Know, wrong word... In german it is: "Zahnrad") and so many little details...

It did indeed - I got very, very bored by the end!
I think the english word for what you mean is gears, or cogs. But zahnrad sounds much cooler!

Glad you like it

I like it really much! I don't think I would have the... evidence? (Ausdauer?) to draw something like it - and it would look like chaos...
It's very cool!

Nice to hear that you like the word! You are the first one who likes a german word more than an english one! Makes me glad

Perseverance? (Google seems to think so XD) Evidence is what you'd use to prove something happened, or back up an argument. (Y'know, it's actually really hard to describe words even if you know what they mean...)

Really? I find that quite surprising - I think german sounds pretty cool

Ahhh - okay, then I don't wanted that word... Why did I think this would be the right word... Don't know, don't know...

Thank you! Sometimes I think german has not enough words to describe everything of the world, and othertimes I think it sounds quite hard - but I also think that it can sound very soft, though the hard sounds of it... I like the language, somewhere...

But I am happy to hear that of you! There are so many people that prefer English to German

Ehh, don't worry about it - that's the way one learns which ones are which

I think all languages have good and bad parts - although it's kinda hard to compare them well if you only speak one!

Sure - you have to know a language to know it - and only when you know it, you can compare it, really... And in my case, for example, I just know the little things in german, but not in English... the little differences between the words and so on...

FennecWolf In reply to JaelAella [2010-08-30 15:04:28 +0000 UTC]

Indeed! So I can't really properly compare English to anything... But I guess you can still have a fairly good feel for a language without knowing much of it.

May - in school I learn latin - and I was very surprised, because I have even a feeling for THIS language even it isn't spoken... So, may you're right...
May it's wrong to try to compare languages - the parts of the world have made their language that they could need for best in that they needed -
an example:
Inuits have 300 words meaning snow or something that's near at snow - where they live it makes sense to have all this words -

but in germany? So - there are not 300 word for snow in german!

You know, what i mean? In parts of the world the language of the people there fits best... in others may not...

FennecWolf In reply to JaelAella [2010-09-06 18:25:15 +0000 UTC]

Yes, very true. What some people need in a language isn't necessarily what other people need... if that makes sense?

I find it very interesting how different languages have words for things that don't have words in other languages, like the snow thing, although I think that's something of a myth. I think words for colours are a good example - some languages only distinguish between light and dark, whilst some have a huge range of words for different colours.

JaelAella In reply to FennecWolf [2010-09-12 19:53:46 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I understand, what you want to say I don't find other words for it...

Yes, this is quite interesting! Or in some languages there are different words for feelings that have in other languages just one word together and something like that...
it's quite interesting but it makes it also quite difficult to translate - and in the beginning I for example, have to translate, to understand anything... later i understand words and sentences in the language without translating them but in the beginning... not... and then this think makes it difficult---

Yes, stuff like that does make it hard to learn languages. Even with simpler stuff like tenses - in French, the verb endings change a lot, whereas in English there are less different endings, so I found learning verbs tricky. And hence I can't remember any of it anymore! XD

Yeah, I know... In latin it's very confurious... Very, very...

But I can remember - but I also have to...

FennecWolf In reply to JaelAella [2010-10-26 19:14:55 +0000 UTC]

Indeed!

I guess I've just not needed to use French, so it's just gone from my memory...
