Russian language is funny

Unread postby Jenab6 » Wed 25 Jun 2008, 11:39:00

Here's the conjugation for "I do, he does, you do..."

Я делаю. Он delicate. Tы delicious.

Or at least that is the way it sounds. And you know what the Russian words for "joke" is?

Shoot-you.

Man, what a tough audience Russians would be for a comedian.

And apparently, language support does not work for thread titles here.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Jenab6', ' ')And you know what the Russian words for "joke" is?

Shoot-you.



shoot-you is more like ' I am joking' , joke is shoot-ka

What I like about Russian is that there is no sentence structure. Put your verb/noun wherever you want or don't use it at all if you want.

accent on the second syllable in "shoochu" but on the first syllable for the rest.
