If you want to make a list, or a "Top Ten", go for it.

I'll share my words and phrases when the poll ends.

Having taken Japanese level 1 & 2 languages classes at my community college and been exposed to much Korean throughout my life, I find the similarities in both pronunciation and grammar to be quite apparent. This is my opinion, however, and I invite people to share theirs. I have been thinking about it for a while and I hope people can give me some more knowledge regarding the matter.

nageer'chok zuko

it's pronounced like this:
(nuh-gear,chawk,zoo-koh)

I dreamt it.
Is it really a language?
Does it mean anything?

What do the lyrics of this song mean?

yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón.
Spanish bombs; yo te quiero infinito.
Yo te quiero, oh mi corazón.

It's from a song by the clash called "Spanish Bombs"

I'm American, but I've run into an accent in Atlanta (I have recently moved here) that baffles me. Here are the characteristics:

Vowel shift:
short e, long a confusion ("sell" pronounced as "sale")
short i, long e confusion ("deal" pronounced as "dill")
long i, short a confusion ("my" becomes "mah")
dropping of final dark L ("bill" becomes "bee-o")
sk reversal ("ask" becomes "axe")

Can anyone tell me:

Is this accent particular to Atlanta?
Is it particular to the South?
Is it particular to young people?

Or, what?

I feel frusturated because when I go to stores I cannot explain what I want because the employess do not understand english. Simple Spaish is not that hard for me. I could memorize certain phrases or take a dictonary to translate this if I had the time and they could wait. Spanish speakers who are native are usually understanding. Would their boss let me and should I go to this extent to get what I need? It almost seems easier. Spanish is just not that hard for me and they might understand it better. I am far from fluent and would like to know. What would a person think if their gringo customer just switched to spanish? I want them to learn but I also want to get what I need. As to other languages spanish is as far as I can go on any complex basis. Other languages I only know a word or a few. It is just not practical unless I live there or there is a large influx for a long time. I need to practice and if there is no one to practice with it is pointless.

This is my favorite flower, and I would like to use it as my daughter's name, but I was hoping that it is called something that sounds prettier in another language. Does anyone know what it is in Arabic or French or anything else?

I really liked the gift you got me. It was really thoughtful of you. Can I call you later or is you cell phone broken?

I want to learn German and am deciding whether or not I want to learn it in school or by myself. Some tell me to learn on my own and that a class is a waste of time because you have to stay at the same pace as the class. Others tell me that classes are the way to go. A local community college is offering a German class this month so I wanted to get some opinions on the matter. I am motivated and don’t think I would slack learning it on my own. All opinions and personal experiences welcomed!
