 LanguagesAsk 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 Nie je vám dovolené písať správy do tohto klubu.

21. mája 2006, 22:03:46 Subjekt: Re: Fiona: lol hmmmm.....sorry 21. mája 2006, 21:54:32 4. mája 2006, 23:36:22 Subjekt: Re: Walter Montego: wow they really sound amazing! I love trees! Lungs of the Earth :o) 4. mája 2006, 11:35:20 Subjekt: Re: Walter Montego:
I had to look up 'sequoia' a red wood tree. Love the word 'facetious'! Never heard of meaiou spelled like that? Hmm I'll have to think of that one! :o) LOL at your tongue twister!! Had to say that very very slowly! 2. mája 2006, 23:16:18 Ok last post for the evening (promise lol)
I thought this site was fun...... http://www.whatdoesthatmean.com/index.php/Welcome_to_%27Whatdoesthatmean%3F%27 2. mája 2006, 23:09:05 Subjekt: Re: 6 letter vowel word:
AIOUEA (a genus of plants of the laurel family) 2. mája 2006, 22:53:41 2. mája 2006, 01:15:50 Subjekt: Re: رضا: no I don't say those either! Im English not American & those examples you have given sound more like an American accent to me.......I could be wrong???? 2. mája 2006, 01:13:54 Subjekt: Re: رضا: yes really! If I was being lazy with my speech it would come out 'did ya' instead of 'did you' 2. mája 2006, 01:10:03 Subjekt: Re: Zmenené užívateľom Ewe (2. mája 2006, 01:11:17) رضا: dij you? hmmmmmmm no sorry I can honestly say that I say 'did you'
It's all very interesting....I think alot about the way I say things as I have a two year old child, who speaks very well, and is learning new words every day, so I am careful she learns it properly. * I have to keep editing my posts as I'm typing too fast & making mistakes with my spelling lol 2. mája 2006, 01:02:52 Subjekt: Re: Zmenené užívateľom Ewe (2. mája 2006, 01:03:55) رضا:  no, I still don't say 'tem boys' when I say ten birds fast!
Maybe I'm paying too much attention in pronouncing them correctly? 2. mája 2006, 00:46:35 Subjekt: Re: رضا: Yes I understand what you mean now but I still don't think that it works on that example. It's two seperate words..ten cats..etc. therefore you pause between words so the 'n' stays the same.
Well it stays the same for me........ 2. mája 2006, 00:39:03 Subjekt: Re: رضا: no I still don't get it  2. mája 2006, 00:12:59 Subjekt: Re: رضا: How does the pronunciation of 'ten' change? I read them out loud & it stays the same for me  1. mája 2006, 17:58:16 Subjekt: Re: Pedro Martínez:  I'd love to hear that converstion!
Is dictionary.com American? It doesn't exisit in the Oxford English dictionary http://www.askoxford.com/results/?view=searchresults&freesearch=blue%20eyed&branch=&textsearchtype=exact 1. mája 2006, 17:27:53 Subjekt: Re: Pedro Martínez: Poke your finger through your neck? How often does that sentence come up in conversation???
Blue eyed! Two words, doesn't count  1. mája 2006, 17:24:44 Subjekt: Re: Lamby: I meant learned! not leant!  1. mája 2006, 16:25:30 Subjekt: Re: رضا: I have never thought of it before???

here is my attempt to explain... banned....to legally take away a right prohibited...to forbid by authority forbidden....to command someone not to do something prevented.....to stop something from happening (usually to stop something bad from happening) disallowed.....to not allow something unpermitted....never heard of this!! we say 'not permitted' and that is similar to disallow 1. banned 2. prohibited 3. not permitted 4. permitted |
