[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]I had thought about the same thing. But does the "neger" part really translate to "n[SIZE=2]ig[/SIZE]ger"?

EDIT: Woah, I just looked it up. :eek: His name is offensive in his native tongue.[/QUOTE]

yes, there is no other translation for Neger, it has never had any other meaning.

Ray: Must be your ghetto accent. :p


And I think it would mean 'negro', not nig[COLOR=White]g[/COLOR]er. Which is a lot less derogatory.

I checked it on an online translator. It had several meanings including Negroes, [SIZE=2]nig[/SIZE]ger, and blackamoor.

It originally was not that offensive in the german language, but in more recent times has become as offensive as the english n word.

[QUOTE=Kurtz]Philly? DC?[/QUOTE]

Philly comes close.

But come on, which city was the birthplace of the American Revolution?

Boston.

There is lots of other stuff too that I learned in US History a few years ago but I can't remember it.

[QUOTE=Kurtz]Why? Just because your from Boston? I never got the whole city rivalry aside from sports.[/QUOTE]

No, it's more of a Chicago thing. Chicago has been stuck with the demeaning (to me, at least) nickname "The Second City" because of New York, and frankly most New Yorkers look down on Chicago for the most part.

You got me...that's how we pronounce it in my native tongue of ebonics :lol:

And that's a funny way of getting past the filter (in before inevitable edit)

Speaking of that, my uni is thinking about teaching ebonics as a foreign language option. Not joking either, its in discussion right now in the languages department.

yes, its all a hoax, i was never actually in germany, and cannot speak the language.

[QUOTE=NJMetalMeister]yes, its all a hoax, i was never actually in germany, and cannot speak the language.[/QUOTE]

Yeah, you can't even speak English, since you don't understand the meaning of 'most'. ;)

[QUOTE=Spat Out Plath]It doesn't work like that. Britain's best athletes are tennis players, runners, rugby players aswell as footballers. Being a footballer involves a lot more than simply being a good athlete. I was always good at football, but it doesn't mean I'd have much aptitude for baseball or basketball. They're completely different concepts.[/QUOTE]

Well, my point is that our great athletes start playing baseball and basketball and football instead of soccer when they're younger, which means they gain aptitude in those sports instead of soccer.

For instance, let's say that Bo Jackson (widely regarded as one of the best American athletes ever when judged solely on raw athleticism), instead of playing Pop Warner football and Little League, chose instead to pursue soccer. Then he would have become an elite soccer player rather than an elite football and baseball player.

Jelle = Jelle

van = probably of or from

kleine = small

honden = dogs

but thats all i got

Yes, it helps to be able to translate your name between languages

for example, if i were speaking japanese, i would tell people my name is Justin :lol:

I know some Dutch nouns and some universal/limited phrases. Remember awhile back when your six-year old cousin was over and she was imitating the naughty smiley (and how you subsequently popped one)? I wrote very limited Dutch, and you were all happy, like:

[quote=Waffleslut]Yes, hond, how did you know? :)[/quote]

So I know a little bit.

He's going to hell...and he's going to get burned along the way :cool:

curtesy of me.

I'm resisting the urge just to troll him, seriously, I really want to follow him around telling him he's gay...do I get banned for that?
if so for how long?
I want to see if it could be worth it...

Nah, I banned him now. And corrected your 'burning' :p

Yeah, I noticed I was trying to think what the hell the dictionary says about nouns and stuff...I just guessed really...

is it me or is the freaking msn down?! :upset:

No, but It's been giving me trouble, yeah.
