Zuu | Hi rindolf :) |
rindolf | Hi Zuu |
rindolf | Zuu: I've been thinking that maybe you can find some corresponding Zuus of the appropriate sex in a different dimension. |
Zuu | hmmm... interesting! |
rindolf | Zuu: are you a heterosexual Zuu or a homosexual one? |
Zuu | I'm not sure what sex I am. |
rindolf | Zuu: ah. |
Zuu | :P |
rindolf | Zuu: you can look. |
rindolf | Zuu: in the mirror or something. |
rindolf | Zuu: don't you have obligatory genders in Danish/ |
rindolf | ? |
rindolf | Like in German, French, etc. |
rindolf | Or Hebrew and Arabic. |
Zuu | obligatory genders? |
Zuu | you mean, the genders in linguistics? |
* Zuu | never understood those |
Zuu | but Danish have two i believe, and if i remember correctly there is female and 'none' |
rindolf | Zuu: yes, genders in linguistics. |
Zuu | i don't remember what which is which though :P |
rindolf | Like in Hebrew "Haben Halakh lagan" - the boy went to the garden. "Habath Halkha lagan" - "The girl went to the garden" |
c_sphere | That almost sounds like allah akbar |
Zuu | rindolf, no we don't distinct between the genders of the subject in the danish language |
Zuu | our nouns have genders though |
c_sphere | zuu-nina? |
Zuu | like 'house' is one gender and 'car' is another |
rindolf | Zuu: of course the question is - what language do Zuus speak natively? |
c_sphere | rindolf: Of course, Zuu speaks Zuu! |
rindolf | Zuuish? |
c_sphere | The Zulu population also does not speak Zuluish, just Zulu. |
Zuu | so if you want to say 'the house' its 'huse_t_' and if you want to say 'the car' its 'bile_n_' |
rindolf | c_sphere: Arnavoth (sounds like an Aztec god) is "Hares" (the Rabbit-like mammal) in Hebrew. |
rindolf | Zuu: can you understand Swedish? |
Zuu | rindolf, some :) |
rindolf | Zuu: ah. |
Zuu | swedish branched from danish AFAIK |
Zuu | same with norwegian |
Zuu | yes, Zuu's speak Zuuish natively :P |
* rindolf | is listening to Hans Zimmer - Jack Sparrow |
rindolf | Zuu: ah. |
Zuu | Zuuish has few words, all of which is based on words about cake from other languages :P |
Zuu | c_sphere, are you by any chance related to s_cube ? |
rindolf | Zuu: ah, what do you use the Hebrew word "עוגיה" (= `ugiyah, cookie) for? |
rindolf | "Chocolate chip pie crust marmalade marzipan cookie yum yum!" |
Zuu | i use it for cookies baked from a hebrew recipe :P |
rindolf | What does it mean in Zuuish? |
Zuu | it's hard to really say something in Zuuish... al you can really do is say something equivalent to "COOKIES!!" |
Zuu | or "YAY CAKE!" |
Zuu | basically, you can only express excitement over different kinds of cakes :P |
rindolf | Zuu: do Zuus eat anything except cakes or cookies? |
Zuu | There was this one time... |
Zuu | wait.. no. That was someone else. |
