Hey guys, so the other day I was doing my thing shocking natives on the streets of Tashkent, when something really weird happened. Like, I was talking to that guy and he switched to English? I was kind of stumped and switched to English as well, but then I thought, "does he have ANY idea who he's talking to?"

I was wondering if you have any tried-and-tested techniques to save the natives from the embarrassment of switching to English because they failed to realize that they are talking to an internet hyperpolyglot?

Maybe I could take a language exam and hold up my certificate whenever I approach people, in the same way a police officer might show their badge to establish their authority? Then again, I don't take language exams because they test cramming instead of true ability.

Any advice from those who speak at least 20 languages would be much appreciated.

I don't want the regular old "it's great for brain training, culture and job opportunities", give unique reasons to study Uzbek that don't apply to other languages.

I mean shock is based on electricity which is based on attraction. So you're literally attracting dudes. Sounds kinda gay to me. As a lesbian i just need to make sure it isn't gay.

How do I do when I am bowing as a greeting to not look at a the other persons pelvic area, AKA between his/her legs? Is it polite then to close my eyes at this point?

I've already mastered American English, Canadian English, Australian English, British English, New Zealand English... And they just naturally spawned in my head! Now I just have to watch everything in Japanese, Spanish, French, Arabic, Russian, Portuguese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Hindi, Greek, German, Polish, African, Mexican (My target languages) On multiple split screens for my mind to memorize them! And after I'll buy books and talk to myself for hours. This was my new year resolution, ngl I'm kinda sad this is too easy, what challenges will I overcome once I finish this?

Hi there, I speak American but I’m learning English, so I often will do video calls with English people to practice. Today, the guy I was talking to said that he is learning French so that he can “speak with the frogs.” Is French the language of all animals or is it specific to Amphibians?

Hello Reddit.

I (25M) recently had a fallout with my girlfriend (20F) because of my obsession with being multilingual.

A little backstory; when I first started having sex I researched into ways to be better as I was a little stiff and pretty much had no idea what I was doing. I read online that you can talk dirty to her in other languages in order to put on a better performance.

I searched love making languages and started slowly creating Anki decks in which I was comfortable speaking the language.

There are a few languages that I know now. However there is one language in particular, which actually happens to be my favourite, that my girlfriend hates and says turns her off in a major way.

I don't understand why it has taken her two years to tell me she hates that language, it's a good love making language with good phonemes. I feel the way I fucked up is I could have possibly asked her previously if she likes the Anki decks or any phrases she'd like to add/change. But to leave it for two years thinking our sex life is great but in her eyes has just been ruined by my languages has left the whole situation feeling awkward and I'm a bit annoyed.

I pretty much spoke this language every single time so the amount of times she must have not been enjoying it, when I thought the complete opposite is annoying but also embarrassing in ways.

Not to mention my previous partners, however they never complained about the language so maybe it's just her?

It's fucked up the relationship tbh because sex feels awkward now. The other day we were having sex with no foreign languages but I was still mouthing out the words in my head. She recognised this and asked me to stop.

I thought this language was perfect and I always thrust while speaking it and feel it gives me the perfect dirty talk for doing the deed to. I usually bust to this language and find it devastating she hates the language.

the language itself

TL;DR She hates my love making language and didn't tell me for over two years making sex now awkward.

They can't diss my boy Basque-Icelandic Pidgin like that 🤬

Hiyall I was deeply touched by our European comrades marching for our rights in the US of A and wanted to return this favour by learning European. I might want to move there if Trump contiues to turn our country into North Korea. I already like the European yt pipos culture. I listen to Andre Rieu every day. In fact my great great great great great great great great grandfather was from there. Any resources for learning European?
