Ein Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I have no idea, but it let's me play Japanese, Chinese, and Korean games. It sets your computer specs or something to said language so it can recognize the game to be played. Or something like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) ah ok I have passable(Italian) to pretty fucking good(Chinese) knowledge of 4 languages and English is hands down the most ridiculous out of them Chinese? Grammar super simple, counters are kind of a fuck you for non-natives I guess but tbh the characters aren't that bad bitch pls I read classics when I was SEVEN it's not that hard Literature is my worst subject Latin? A bit complex, but highly regular and well-structured. Also you pronounce everything the way it's written, it's beautiful, also you don't even need to care about sentence structure at all because everything's handled by declensions I love Latin Italian? Kinda works off Latin, simplifies down Latin's 3 genders into 2. Granted, me knowing Latin made conjugation piss easy. Articles are hard to keep track of, though. The pronunciation's also pretty straightforward. English? Hahaha a clusterfuck of irregularities and how do you pronounce anything right without living in an immersive environment goddamn Latin is honestly a great language and I'm sad that it's fallen out of use Edited July 6, 2014 by Thor Odinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junk Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I'm more worried about the tones tbh.(Mandarin Chinese). And memorizing all those characters even if they are simplified. I hear traditional Chinese has over 10000 characters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ein Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I wonder how silly Spanish is compared to those. I'm more worried about the tones tbh.(Mandarin Chinese). And memorizing all those characters even if they are simplified. I hear traditional Chinese has over 10000 characters! also this Then again you generally only have to know so many. but Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marthur Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 the fuck's applocale When you want to use a japanese program on a US or localised (Europe) Windows XP, you need to set your "system locale" to japanese and reboot your system in order for Windows to display the program properly. This is not very convenient and furthermore can cause problems with other programs (because of their installation path) and add the visual inconvenience of the infamous Yen "slash". AppLocale basically allows you to tell programs "no dudes, you're not on a western system, you're on a japanese one, so display proper japanese language please!" AppLocale tells your system to act as if it were Japanese, only for the programs of your choice, while no changes are done to your "system locale" and no reboot are needed, on the fly!! IMPORTANT : AppLocale only works on Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server. source : http://alcahest.perso.sfr.fr/perso/apploc/applocale.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) Ah ok thank The tones aren't terrible once you get used to them, better than having practically no consistency I know...at least 7k? I'm fluent in both traditional and simplified and I can read Romance of the Three Kingdoms since age 7 so I'd imagine I'd know more characters now No way do I know every character but hell most of those aren't even used anyway Edited July 6, 2014 by Thor Odinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acacia Sgt Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 In what sense? Could be sillier, could not be... On the other hand, I may not be the best candidate to answer that. Not really that good of a judge, and Spanish being my native tongue I can't say I find it any troublesome or anything of the sort... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor Odinson Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) Doesn't Cantonese have like 9 tones? don't know i only speak mandarin but really if you learn one of simplified or traditional it's not that hard to learn the other one stemming off I was taught simplified in school because >mainland but I taught myself traditional out of a dictionary that had both Maybe all of the male and female wording thing. goddamn Can't even remember the word to describe it. gender yeah ngl that's a little silly and probably my only complaint about Latin don't blame Spanish for it, simplifying it down to M/F from M/F/N is already nicer though not having it at all would be nicest Edited July 6, 2014 by Thor Odinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junk Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) I for some reason can't stop laughing right now. Hopefully mandarin will be useful for economic reasons and such. Edited July 6, 2014 by DO NOT EDIT POSTS GUY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, to an outsider, it does may look silly that we, for example, even have "It" with a male and female divide. So much for gender neutral, hahahaha. Ah well...

Acacia Sgt Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) Well, I also grew up with both languages. Learned Spanish faster, but other than that, nothing noteworthy with either. Edited July 6, 2014 by Acacia Sgt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Odinson Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 (edited) I had to claw my way up English it was hard I'm usually good at languages but English took 2 years with immersion at an age where language should come easily because English is hard Meanwhile breezing through italian rn 's probably why i hate english so much it's my non-native language that I had no choice in learning it Latin was at least an option among some others Italian is 100% my choice Edited July 6, 2014 by Thor Odinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
