Languages, Words and Letters

SAOL · Posted: Fri May 22, 2009 9:18 am Post subject: Languages, Words and Letters

The fourth thread I have created. Mr. Green

Here we can discuss and learn each other about languages.

It is a matter that has been discussed on several occations, so now I think it's worthy of a place of its own.

So in here, anyone who feels for it, can reply to the discussion that is currently going on in one or two threads, where I became a little... stired up Devil

I think he himself is a bit hard to understand from time to time.

Why so upset over that? Devil

Probably. But I'm quite certain that it isn't "komma under mitt skinn" Confused

I can't think of one really... It's tough when they are different.
