"y'all's" is the best regional solution to the english second person plural possessive problem but "your guyses" is my favorite because it sucks

Weeping at this. Frighteningly similar to how I sound

audio: first man introduces the concept which I assume is the same as the caption. Second man starts speaking something which may or may not be words, but definitely aren't English words, in the same cadence as an American sports announcer

New language startup!

Hey guys, it’s ye boy langblr trash back at it again with another neat and nifty post on tumblr dot com.

My language learning journey has taken me to Germany, where I am currently an exchange student. Here I met another young polyglot who’s got a pretty cool idea for a new language learning app centered around finding cognates in your target language based on languages you already know. It’s called Rootify and it’ll be launching in beta soon! 

I managed to hop on board the team for this thing and I wanted to do my part by spreading the word around to people like yourselves who may be interested. This seems like a great way to get a speed boost for part of your study of a new language. It’s all free too! 

You can sign up for the beta here https://www.rootify.me/ and follow the official instagram and facebook for more updates

I’d also really appreciate giving this a quick reblog so more of the langblr community can see it! I think I may have been offline a bit too long to know a lot of the new members!

Germans when i ask why they drop english in the middle of our german coversation when i can clearly speak german: yeah i just consume so much english language media that i sometimes use phrases from it because they both sound cooler and honestly come to me faster than German equivalents

Americans if German phrases come faster and sound cooler to you : will you shut up about the war

Ah shit, here we go again

can’t wait for the final boss battle of duolingo when you fight the 50 foot owl armed with nothing but your wits, a sword, and your shaky grasp of verb conjugations

[batmanisagatewaydrug-deactivate]

Die Eule habe hat Hunger

True to form, I actually messed up the verb conjugation when I first put the words on this. XD
