Resistance is Futile XD

[teruel_a_witch]

At your own peril :P

1. What do you study and why did you choose this area?

2. Second favourite show (after DW ;D) and why.

3. How long have you been watching DW and what drew you into it?

4. A virtual gun is pointed in your direction and you have to choose one. Nine, Ten, Ten2 and why?

5. Have you ever been abroad and if you haven't what places would you like to visit?

Hee! Resistance is Futile!

the whole gazillion of tenses of the verb (we have only three (past, present, future), three! why would someone need more? xD
...and my native language (Indonesian) has no time related tenses, so even three of them were giving me a hard time when I first learned to use them XD

[teruel_a_witch]

1. So how come you ended up in Italia? (the whole story *grins*)

2. What languages can you speak?

3. What degrees do you have/will have after finishing your studies?

4. What Tv-shows do you watch besides DW and Fringe?

5. You have all the money you need. What places would you like to visit?

my native language (Indonesian) has no time related tenses
How weird xD and what do they relate to then? I have a professional interest xD

[alizarin_skies]

About tenses....

Hmmmm....come to think about it, we don't have any I guess XD

According to my European friends, one of the funniest things about Indonesian is that we repeat words for plurals. My Russian friend was actually in a fit of giggles for several minutes saying things like ...so horses are horse horse? house house? and such :P

From foreign people actually learning Indonesian, they find the hardest part to be the various rules we have for the prefixes, suffixes, and something we put in the middle of words (not sure what it would be called in English XD)

For our local traditional languages, though, we actually have strict tenses that designates the level of respect to the people you speak to. For example, my local one, which is West Javanese, has three: for elders, for general polite conversation and the lowest one, and for each we have completely different word sets. It was compulsory at school and quite a nightmare to memorize.

Okay, sorry for the long rant and I'll get back to you on the actual meme soon XD

Rants are ok, don't worry, my language-geek needs feeding, after all xD

tenses that designates the level of respect to the people you speak to.
How curious, hehe, we only have polite pronouns and that's it xD

My Russian friend was actually in a fit of giggles for several minutes saying things like ...so horses are horse horse? house house? and such
hehe, yeah, that is kinda funny but Russian people laugh at Baden-Baden,too xD I actually heard something similar about islander-languages, for example, in Filipinas they simplify Spanish in a way that they also repeat something, like, instead of saying muy poco(very little(adverb)) they say poco-poco xD

I have read your answers but just haven't replied yet, I still need to answer at least one set of questions first xD
