>tfw can't decide if I should learn Spanish or German
cmon /int/ help me out
>>60222119
Spanish.
>>60222119
German.
Learn German.
German sounds much nicer than Spanish.
Spanish.
Both will ultimately be a waste of time anyway, you might as well learn a cool language like Irish.
Why not both?
>>60222119
Spanish, of course!
>>60222201
>>60222119
German, brits can't learn spanish
> Learning Esthhhspanish over Portuguese
Do people seriously do this?
Spanish speakers are a bit more forgiving on conjugations and pronunciations.
Germans will just talk to you in English if you mess up once, they will eat your ego raw.
>>60222119
Español.
>>60222119
Spanish m8, you can actually use it in more than 1 country and it's really similar to English. That and there are no retarded 12 syllable words or guttural, phlegmy sounds.
>>60222119
Spanish
go join your countrymen in Spain

This. Germans are stuck up cunts
I speak Spanish to God, Italian to Women, French to Men, and German to my Horse.

Spanish!
>>60222414
who did he speak english to?
>>60222119
Spanish all the way, we are your oldest allies.
>>60222414 Here.
But really, you should learn german. Spanish sucks.
>>60222414
Except he didn't say that.
>>60222485
England wasn't relevant in the XVI century.
VARSITY
Tfw can't decide if op is a faggot or not
>>60222541
Shhh. Nobody needs to know.
Do you want to speak with people from the United States or Germany?
>>60222119
There you have it, Spanish is the way to go.
>>60222556
ATHLETE
>>60222119
Spanish, german would be too difficult for a brit. Everyone knows that your language skills are laughable to say the least.
>>60222119
It looks like you're staying in the German empire, so you might as well learn the language.
>>60222119
Learn Catalan.
Has things similar to Spanish (it's a romance language, of course). But with many more germanic loanwords that you don't even have in english.
With Catalans, you win.
>>60223403
Do not listen to him. I am catalan and not even between ourselves we speak catalan as much as we speak Spanish.
>>60223643
You probably are some son or grandson of non-catalan immigrants.
Catalan is my mother tongue. I only speak Spanish with people that can't understand Catalan.
Stupid twat..
>>60223643
Are you sure you're Catalan? Pro tip: just because you happened to be born in Catalonia does not make you Catalan.
Spanish
Tho it's more difficult to learn, Spanish is a beautiful language. So is german but Spanish, rly
German
It will be phased out soon by Arabic
>>60222485
to ur mum
>>60223681
>>60223695
Absolutely, my family tree is completely catalan since at least the XVI century and my surnames are "Ambrós Catalá". So I am totally not a "new" catalan.
As for you >>60223681
you are the reason us catalans have the stereotype of being "bad people"; what with you insulting your own Spanish citizens and all.
>>60223643
Catalan people are nice and welcoming. They speak catalan between themselves. If I ask something in spanish, they'll reply in catalan. If I don't understand, they'll repeat in spanish. Sometimes, even in french or in english if I don't know the spanish word.
Are you sure you're catalan?
>>60224273
>Absolutely, my family tree is completely catalan since at least the XVI century and my surnames are "Ambrós Catalá" (very catalan surnames).
>>60224266
You're an exception, my friend.
And it's not a bad thing. And I don't have any problem with Spanish people. I'm not even an independentist.
But don't go around explaining your customs like if they were the general truth.
And even if I was wrong about this, your comment was impertinent and stupid. I didn't even mention anything about the "usefulness" of Catalan to the British anon.
>>60223403
>recommending a language that's utterly useless outside a 100 sq km area
lol no wonder spain is so fucked up. as long as you have regional dialects you will never prosper in the modern world.
>>60224006
>Tho it's more difficult to learn
"no"
German if you care about your professional life, spanish if you're looking for grils.
>>60222326
Its not that they'll forgive you its just that spanish people can't speak english. So they cant really speak with you in any other way+they cant really judge.
>>60224460
Catalan is not a dialect of Spanish.
And Catalans can speak Spanish. It's not that we are some third-world country without a "lingua-franca" where the citizens of diferent zones can't even understand each other.
>>60222119
In 50 years German will be a dead language, so if you want to be some sort of archeologist, I recommend Deutsch.
>>60224426
I am just very tired to see people using independentism to escape the economic crisis when in reality it is only worsening the very same crisis we want to defeat. And I adore our languages so much I do not want them being used politically. Our country does not need more divisions than the ones we have since the first republic between left and right.
>>60224460
Yeah, you're right. Let's get rid of every language except the most spoken one around the world.
>>60222119
>live in the UK
Learn French, it's the logical step in your case.
>>60224460
It is true my language is not the most spoken or even heard of or liked beyond our country but it is a proud language from Spain that reflects on our Spanish history.
>>60224663
>I am just very tired to see people using independentism to escape the economic crisis when in reality it is only worsening the very same crisis we want to defeat.
I agree.
And I also agree that it should not be used politically.
The same with our culture in general. I feel shame for our current anthem. We didn't even keep the original lyrics of the song.
Oh, and the "estelada". That fucking gommunist flag... It triggers me a lot.
>>60224881
Ditto. It is both an insult to our real flags, the catalan and spanish ones.
Who are you going to vote in the coming presidential elections, friend?
>>60224982
I don't really know... The offer is very scarce.
I considered VOX but they seem to be a little bit too christian batshit for me. And I'm not so sure that they would be really anti-immigration if they hypothetically got in power.
In the last elections I voted Unió, despite the corruption. But they are not even running in this new election.
What about you?
this
>>60223322
confirms this:
>>60222326
>>60225275
Maybe we two should vote for PSOE or Podemos, even if anti-immigration aren't preciselty their strongest point voting for the left wing is not at odds with being patriotic; quite on the contrary. The left wing people are more willing to sacrifice their interests paying more taxes to have better education and health care for us Spaniards.
>>60222119
German or Polish
>>60225748
The PSOE already fucked up the economy once. And Podemos could be even worse than them. I do not believe in populist movements.
Besides, I think we should get rid of many public workers and other state expenses. And I do not think that's on Podemos' agenda.
>>60222267
Arab netherlands has a black hand
>>60225871
I agree though to be fair it was not PSOE doing in the economy fuck up but a mixture of global economic crisis and the real state business bubble burst. What I am really terrified of is allowing Ciudadanos or PP to win again. Although I am not precisely on Podemos side just like you, I believe them to be the lesser evil here and a pushing force to cut in all those unnecesary expenses.
>>60222119
It'd be wiser to learn the language of your owners
Do you want to talk to engineers, or busboys?
>>60226459
Good point, I guess...
>we use estar to describe temporary things
>oh, but we also use tener for hunger
>and hacer for temperature/weather
>and sometimes estar and ser are used interchangeably
>soy listo
>estoy listo
>>60222119
Spanish. I can't see German being very useful compared to Spanish, even though I honestly think it sounds cooler.
Spanish. German will be a dead language soon enough.
>>60226072
We'll see what happens...
I might not go to vote at all...
>>60227395
Please do vote, if you do not vote you will be helping Ciudadanos and PP.
>>60224629
>spanish people can't speak english
they do here, maybe not europeans, they are always so elitist
