ahhh nick hunter the language specialist is teaching us his exclusive knowledge :dote: that is so cooooooooool

You're welcome! :XD: At least my training as a "teacher of Russian for foreign students" doesn't get lost.
 
For this reason I preffer english, and that's too the reason for it's universatility (That was correct? XD?)
 
If you take it as "universal+utility", it's quite correct.
One more reason I love English for is the vast abilities for creative experiments :bwahaha: :XD:

(to anyone new here: don't try to march the last ten or so posts with the topic's name - I've tried and failed already, so relax :plot: )
 
I'll name Kadziury like "Yuki Kadziury" as Nick Huterr said.
:XD: naahhhhh jokin

10 ways to build the plural? Midori-chan! Please enlighten me!!! :please:
ok...

~e: Das Schiff - Die Schiffe
Umlaut: Der Faden - Die Fäden
~e + Umlaut: Die Hand - Die Hände
~er: Das Bild - Die Bilder
~er + Umlaut: Das Glas - Die Gläser
~en: Die Uhr - Die Uhren
~n: Die Feder - Die Federn
~s: Das Handy - Die Handys
no changes: Das Fenster - Die Fenster
latin words have their own plural, and we use it XD

some homonyms have a different plural:
Das Schild - Die Schilder
Der Schild - Die Schilde

Die Leiter - Die Leitern
Der Leiter - Die Leiter

Der Band - Die Bände
Das Band - Die Bänder


(Der, Die, Das = the [male, female, neutral])
 
+ we have the Ablativ, but it's so rarelly used that you'll never hear the word at school

and to finally answere Ayashiis question: Yes, I friggin want a son! :sohappy:
 
OMM Midori-chan! O.o That's friggin...weid. :XD: cool though. You just helped me understand german better. I only knew like...3 of those though. The umlaut one...the "-en" one and "-s" one. :ayashii:

...well...good luck with that, Pion-kun....don't let me stop you :XD:
 
I think german is the hardest language when it comes to grammar xD
Do we have any regular verb? I think every verb has it's own uniq way I fear... :omgwtf:
German is really a somhow to logical language -_-

and then things like "Erdgeschoß"
every other languag hast first flor, second flor etc.
but german has Erdgeschoß, Erste Etage (or Erster Stock) etc.
it's really stupid if a britain needs information about his room in a hotel and you say it's on the first flor, but you actually mean the second flor xD
 
btw, i write "Erdgeschoss" :XD: (we have a lot of reforms, that makes it even more difficult)
(übrigens, stock kommt von draufstecken glaub ich o.O erster stock: das erste draufgesteckte)
 
You too?
There are promised to be reforms in Belarusian spelling, too (3rd in the last 100 years... Daaaamn XD)
 
3 in 100 years? thats nothing...
last spelling reform in german: 1996
reform of the reform: 2004
reform of the reform of the reform: 2006

= 3 in 10 years :XD:
 
yes, everytime we have a reform, nobody knows how to write all words... = it's too difficult = new reform...

you see, it's pretty senseless, but they do it again and again @_@

Edit: 300 ^-^
 
Well i can't really show off...heh. Romanian has only had 3 since..well...since forever i guess. One in the 30's, one in the 50's and one recently...err..2006 i believe. Uhm...i can't find much on that subject on the internet ..and ...frankly...i don't really care.

Lol. Why did we change this topic into an "off-topic" ? :XD:
 
let's rename it to "Would you name your daughter Yuki? / let's talk about grammar"
 
If we get too offtop, we can always create a new one!

@Ayashii: Yuki Kadziury is also the plural in this particlular case.

But if you're so fond of Russian case system - choose any:

Nominative - Yuki Kadziura
Genitive - Yuki Kadziury
Dative - Yuki Kadziure
Accusative - Yuki Kadziuru
Instrumental - Yuki Kadziuroi
Prepositional - (about whom) o Yuki Kadziure

Bon appetit! XD
 
Mega-ultra-super-giga-uber-ZOMFG-ish offtopic:
(Although the topic is becoming more and more ontopic on this matter XD)

I'm terribly curious about that "Instrumental" case, Nick. :plot:
Is it a special case for expressing the thing you used in order to do something? Like..."I opened the door with my mouth"? XD
(Ok that was probably as far as you can get from the actual thing :XD: )

In romanian we have 5 cases. (And i think that Prepositional of yours is integrated into our Dative.)

Nominative - Yuki Kajiura
Accusative - Pe Yuki Kajiura
Dative - Lui Yuki Kajiura [If it's a native romanian female name the genitive acts as a declination ending to the name/noun. Ex. Maria - Mariei (...to Maria)] It's the case of the indirect object. It is also the case that expresses places/locations too and can answer to the question "to whom" also"
Genitive - Al/A lui Yuki Kajiura [again If it's a native romanian (female name) name or one that ends in -a, as most of them do, it gives up the "lui" in fron - which means "of" in most cases - and does this: Al/A (male/female possessed object) Mariei. same goes for a noun regardless of it's gender. It's usually "Al lui for male or foreign possessors to which, as a sort of a rule, no ending can be glued]
Vocative - Yuki Kajira! [I think most of the people are familiar with this one ^^]

Ok that might have been to much but heck, as long as it's on the topic of the offtopic... :XD: Tell me more, Nick! Onegai! :bwahaha:
