BrainKing - 掲示板 (Languages)

Languages

Ask questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful.

Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.

To see translations of some frequently used phrases and sentences in other languages see Languages

Nirvana: This is what I found:

巻貝 - snail; spiral shell
ゆっくり - slowly
登る - rise; ascend; go up; climb
富士山 - Mt Fuji

Pedro Martínez: さすがね、Pedro Martínez! It's a haiku I've encountered for the first time when I was a sixth grader (it's a reconstruction of the original through Hebrew translation that I found). It means, 'The Snail Slowly climbs Mt. Fuji", and said 'makigai wa yukkuri noboru fujisan wo'. (The lettres you didn't understand, は and を, are topic and direct subject marks respectively.)
