I love how in romanian, one of the answers to
"thank you"
literally translates to
"grow up"
(its meant as in "may you grow healthy, no need to thank me" but I think its hilarious to imagine someone saying thank you so earnestly and the other person to just fucking shout GROW UP)

ok, this is super silly but i've been wanting to start learning a new language and i'm having a hard time deciding which one
soooo, i'm asking y'all to help me :)
here's the poll with all the languages from my wishlist (yes, i have one). my reasons for considering each language (as unserious as they might be) will be below. i've been considering polish, dutch or norgewian, but you can choose whichever you like most
reasons (very unserious):
polish: poland is close to my country so i might immigrate there (but also i like consonant clusters hggfdfg)
czech: don't remember why i put it on the list but i guess it looks fun
norwegian: norway looks like a great place to live
danish: north germanic languages are my favourite now (the same applies to norwegian)
dutch: seems to be a fun addition to my german (i guess germanic languages in general are my favourite)
scottish gaelic: because of a character from 1960's doctor who. also i love endangered languages (and struggling to find resources is my hobby)
welsh: long words mhuahahaha
romanian: i collect romance languages like pokemon
greek: the letters are cute ngl
korean: the same as greek + asian languages are fucked up and i enjoy suffering, apparently
let the chaos begin. the possibility of making me suffer is in your hands.
