Is there a direct railway line from Wynn to Auckland? :chin:

Any casual look at the Pacific map does not encourage this thought.

@ Enviro

Hoe naby is die Afrikaanse taal Nederlandse taal? As ek kyk na die woorde in die internet en die Duitse grammatika toe te pas, is die resultaat 'n goeie?

There seems to be no gender, or articles. -- Oops. There are articles, sure.

Seventy-five years ago, France and Belgium would have said that about the whole country, not just their language.

:roll:

@ Kip - oh yeah, that's right.

@ Krabo. Where's Wynn? Don't get on an Auckland train, you don't know where you'll end up, and the chances are you may never been seen again.

Also, I don't have a doorbell. Don't worry, if you start coming up the drive the dog will soon tell me. :lol:

Yes!! Two years of it in junior high and I never got it. The grammar is hopeless.
I would complain about how they still write nouns with the first letter capitalized, but English is just as bad, with capitalizing names of days, months, languages and nationalities. In Norwegian we only capitalize actual names. We also don't have any am/are/is/ or bin/bist/ist, it's just er. So much easier.

We are smarter than you. Just say "o." What is strange is that the Turkish language has this same "o, " but there it means he/she/it.

Just o. That's even better. There is no distinction between he, she and it in Turkish?

In the sort of Norwegian called bokmål, we say jeg for I. In nynorsk it's eg (which is pronounced very differently from the eg in jeg). In northern dialects they just use æ.

Ænd they say Finnish is difficult. Honest, I did know that there are two versions of Norwegian, but I have not plunged into any details.
