Because it is so easy?

No because it sounds cool and beautiful and because of its flow.

I see. Do you have any languages that you don't like?

 

Hmm... the asian ones don't sound that pleasant to me and I don't like Russian. 

 

What about you? ^^

I personally like japanese. It sounds so cute and innocent for me. 

 

Arabic. I can't imagine how anyone can pronounce that stuff. Also their writing is horrible. Everything looks the same. 

 

And Spanish also starts to become a pain in my ass. At first it made fun too but by now it's just horrible. I can't write one goddamn sentence without having tons of gramatical mistakes. 

Yeah I totally agree with Arabic  

 

Spanish surely isn't the easiest language to lern but the sound of it is awesome if you ask me

[Celinilein]

Are you drunk, Romeo?

 

[Celinilein]

I like German very much too. It sounds sexy

Yeah for me it does

Okay, I think you are the only person I know who thinks that German is sexy^^

 

Probably because I hear all the awful Austrian accents here all the time^^

Edit: Nils and me just talked about our top five languages in the world. My conclusion of the most beautiful languages:

 

1. American English

2. Italian 

3. German

4. Spanish

5. Hawaiian

 

 

What would you guys choose?

But don't you think that it depends on the voice?^^

 

Hm good question...  Maybe a bit. With a shitty voice every beautiful language can sound awful, yes^^ 

 

vor 3 Minuten schrieb Ullah:

1. English (Scottish accent)

2. Spanish

3. French

5. Arabic

Oh interesting... you really like the Scottish English the most?  How come? Have you already been there? (:

 

No Turkish in your top 5?^^

Thats all languages I kinda interacted with, don't know much about others, dunno.

Please don't tell me that this is some kind of a made up language in MLP

We're talking about real languages in our real world.

Oh gosh... was so clear.

Do you know Watchmojo.com? They made Top 10 list and one of them was sexiest accents of the world. German was also in it.

 

 

 

 

No never heard of that^^

Are they talking about the German language or the German accent? Because the German accent in other languages like English sounds so bad and has no sexiness at all for me

[Celinilein]

They are talking about the German accent in English movies. ^^

 Baah that hurts in the ears

But for example Christoph Walz sounds quite good in English.

 

Hmmm you're right

His accent is part of the movies he plays in and I wouldn't call that accent sexy too...so

I don't get why people just write things like "wow nobody is in this thread anymore" or "don't die thread" instead of trying to start a new conversation

Since everyone in this thread is at least interessted in English, do you watch your movies or play your games with English Audio?

 

Obviously you were never bored

Sometimes you wanna chat with someone but there is just no specific topic  

 

I sometimes do and sometimes don't. It depends on the quality of the German synchronisation and on the complexity of the game's oder movie's topic in my case.

What about you, Ullah? 

[Celinilein]

What I often do too is to play a game with German language in the first run and to switch to English in the second run. This brings more new content to an otherwise more boring repetition and is pretty interesting

 

I really hate subs in general - regardless of whether German or English. I just don't like having to read and watch at the same time. It's so annoying for me

 

vor 17 Minuten schrieb Ullah:

Yeah good point when the German synchronisation is awful I switch to the English audio. It also depends on how the voice actor sounds like. When I listen to it in English I also always turn the subtitles on.

 

Unfortunately you won't be able to have a good small talk without any specific topic that is why I asked the question.^^

You are right sometimes even the subtitles are really bad. I guess consuming media in English makes it alot easier to be good in a certain language.

Yeah you are totally right and some voice actors do a really really good job in German too :yenod:

 

Thank you for beginning a topic and conversation  

 

Definetely it does! Unfortunately most of the time I am too lazy to watch movies in English because it requires so much brain-(work? ^^) and I get tired of that pretty often

It really is only a matter of repetition in my opinion. If you listen long enough to a language, it just becomes second nature and your brain will process the input on its own
I regularly listen to podcasts on YouTube while playing games or doing cleaning, laundry or cooking and even though I don't pay much attention, I usually know what was talked about when I'm done ^^

 

Yes you're right...  :yensod:
Normal clear American English istn't a big problem. But when it comes to different dialects like Texan and if people don't speak clearly I sometimes have problems to understand.

So I saw a post in the "PS+-games"-thread stating/complaining that recently there are more "english-only" games every month.

What do you guys/gals think? Should Sony take into consideration that there are people who can't understand the games, or can we assume that the english language is such a big part of our culture, that everyone should at least know enough to enjoy the titles?

Since there are subtitels most of the time I tend to the second. English is getting more and more important and I think this is a very good progress. 

 

Especially the younger generation should be able to understand the game's story nevertheless.
