Human Languages
« on: July 26, 2010, 11:16:47 pm »
So I've been a little curious about this for a while now. What programming human languages does everyone know? How skilled are you at them? (Like beginner, intermediate, advanced.)

I shall start:
TI-BASIC: Beginner-Intermediate
English: Advanced ;D
Latin: Intermediate-Advanced
Italian: Beginner (I need more time...)
Lojban: Beginner (I was bored, okay? ;D)

This happens to be a shameless rip-off of the Programming Languages topic, in case you haven't noticed :P

Speaking it is definitely the hardest part of any language, but is definitely an essential component of fluency. (Unless it's a classical language (e.g. Latin) (Unless you're like me :P))

Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

Dutch: Native language, hence advanced.
French: Advanced, although I've been going downhill lately, I fear...
English: I'll label myself 'intermediate'. Next year I'm going to take the British Council's test for Advanced English.
Latin: Intermediate :D I can read it with an acceptable degree of fluency.
Ancient greek: I was intermediate, once, but I haven't read any of it for more than a year, and I forgot like all the grammar, so well....
Quenya (=tolkien elvish): intermediate
German: beginner
Italian: beginner

More on my list: a failed attempt at learning Gaelic, and an attempt at learning Old English, which also failed due to lack of time.

I'm planning to learn Chinese as well, at the CLT in Brussels. (Centre for Living Languages, the best language school in the country. I need to fill up on lesson hours to save trouble filling out government forms. I'll explain later.)
