How apropriate, there's no "yes" option. We're all such nerds. I thought nerds were supposed to work out because everyone pick on them...Well, I have a gym membership, but its been at least two months since I've gone. What's the relevance of this survey?

Well, who actually speaks German? No one who actually works out.

Worueber shiimpfst du? Ich spreche Deutsch, und du bist eine _______kopf. Danke fuer deine Zeit.

heh Ich spreche Deutsch nicht!

I speak a little German (German I with a 'B' grade), and I ahve one of the better scroes on my gum class. However, I ahve vowed never to take gym again! Death to the mile-and-a-half graduation standard!

anyone going to fill in the blank?

though it's not actually used in sentances...but is funny, i'm giogn to fill it in..

Popo Kauph
literal translation
Butt head

i asked our exchange studetns..they think it's funny, but not common.

Ich bein ein Beriliner!

actually, the strongest guy in my class was near the top of my german class and he works out all the time, and he's a wrastler.

he's a "wrastler"? thass one of them "professhunal" wrestlers, right?
(yo' see, like th' redneck days of christmas goes, only a backwood hick'd use sech language like thet)
o' yo' kin hoof it to th' link above! Then yo' kin talk like a redneck yo'seff! Fry mah hide!

Ich spreche Deutsch und ich hebe meinen Taschenrechner mehrmals täglich.

I speak German and I lift my calculator several times a day.

Hey now - I speak German and work out. Ja means yes so I'm going for that. There is something to be said for running 3 miles, playing 2 hours of tennis, and lifting weights in the summer; keeps you healthy!!

P.S. The survey was my idea; don't believe me if you want, but its true! =-0

Ja Wohl! Ich bin Stark!
means
Of course! I am strong!

*sigh*
That's what we get when Andy dictates what we should have for the poll :)

--BlueCalx

Basic knowledge of foreign languages should be required for participation in surveys. Either that or translations....=-0

amicek

We should have a poll that asks how many languages you speak, just to find out how diverse the people are that visit this site.

Wir solten einen poll haben der fragt wieviele sprachen du sprichts, nur zum herausfinden wie verschieden die leute hier sind.

PS: je deteste Microsoft, parce qui'ils sont stupids.
PPS: anata dai ichi ni senrioo.
PPPS: Än gruäss ah alli schwietzer, züridütsch isch diä einzig wahri sprach.

nihongo wo hanasu koto ga dekiru
(I can speak Japanese), also Chinese, but only well enough to convince white people that I speak it, and I can't write pinyin worth fecies, so I'm not even gonna try and write " wo ku yi jiang zhongwen" Is that right? Pinyin sucks.
Oh yeah, I don't speak Euro-trash.

He He.. I don't know why these comments are in here, being of no relevance to the topic of lifting weights. but, I guess it's fun to brag of multi lingual skills over here. I have to admit, I don't lift weights, but I'm a X-country man, so .. I guess it kinda exempts me from being a total calculator nerd. We don't get the 89's here in japan.. don't know why... damn those ti people.


hontou? chugokugo wo hanasu? ua.. sugoina..

Personne ne parle plus de langages que moi.

Niemand spricht mehr Sprachen als ich.

Mi domando se chiunque altrimenti parla italiano qui.

Que sobre o português? Eu amo fazer este, bragging sou absolutamente a maioria de coisa do divertimento a fazer. he he.

Yeah, I bet that does stink. I want a 89 and 92+ in japanese!

I'm in the process of learning Japanese

dentaku ga shihai suru

(someone email me if my japanese's wrong)

P.S. Nick will the reply system here accept unicode characters so that if I use Win2k's japanese features it will show up ok if the viewer's web browser supports japanese characters?

you're japanese is correct.. no.. the reply system will not show the unicodes.. it will only show the funky lookin' extended ascii character in its place, unless you have a japanese IME installed on your web browser..
why are you studying japanese??? just a question.
he he.. I know like four friends that have the name brian.. they're all half jap. just like me.. I live on an american air base in japan.. though.. so really.. he he.. I don't know whether I'm american.. or jap... being that i lived in CA for 6 yr. and TX for 2...

But some people (like me) wouldn't know how much of a language one must know.

Mais quelques uns (comme moi) ne savraient pas combien il faut savoir d'un langue.

Men några människor (som jag) skulle inte veta hur mycket man måste veta om ett språk.

(insert translations in German, Spanish, and whatnot)

where is "whatnot" spoken

C/L #61
nerd/geek #110

geez.. never herd of the language of "whatnot"??? wow.. where have you been all these years?? Whatnot is spoken in the land of the want not's.. yes.. you heard me correctly.. in the land of the want nots. Soon, we will all be speaking whatnot. cause all the want nots are gonna take over the world...


lol
people need to learn how to speak a language before they post it up on the web, and make a fool of themselves... ie. What does "anata dai ichi ni senrioo." mean? Being a fluent speaker of Japanese.. It should've been easy for me to understand.... =)

i really need to get out more...or do i?

hehe my japanese is mad rusty, i was learning it a while ago but stopped. I thought it meant something like "you die first" i forgot though. But I'm sure about
Konichiwa ogenki desu ka (Hi, how are you), and Dame-Da (don't do that, or something like that?).

It's alright dude.. no.. it didn't mean anything.. if you want to say, "you die first", then it would be, "anata wa saisho ni shinderu".. he he.. oh well.. konnichiwa, ogenki desuka.. is right..

laterz peeps

German:
Aber einige Leute (wie ich) würden nicht wissen, wieviel einer Sprache man wissen muß.

Spanish:
Pero alguna gente (como mí) no sabría cuánto de un lenguaje uno debe saber.

Translate the Russian! :)

p.s.: it's in english sounds, not russian characters :)

~Titan_X

I speak english and spanish.
Yo hablo ingles y espanol.

Yo también, pero ¡no tengo más clases de español! Y yo no sabe mucho español cuando yo fui en la clases de español. No me gustaron las clases. Fui muy aburridas.

~Roberto

same here! and in spanish class you can't use an 89! ( Go figure) it is verry boring.
pero, hablo un poco de espanol.

Just a suggestion-
Pour le prochain sonder, ecrivez une choix en Francais. J'espere que je n'ai pas prennne cinq ans de Francais pour rien.

<For the next survey, write a choice in French. I hope I didn't take five years of French for nothing>

--Phoenix (and no, I am not 'Frenchie boy' like my friends often call me :)

yeah, there should be a "yes" or a similar (not sarcastic option). Some people, like myself, might be interested if there are "non-nerds" at ticalc.org. It kind of pissed me off, so I didn't vote in the survey, since I couldn't put down that I lift weights 4 or 5 days every week. I really would be interested in the results to see that there are some people that go out all the time, and are more like the socially popular frat guys like me.

Weight lifting rocks!!!!! Its the best thing that ever happened to me - that and basketball and tennis. Anyways, I just voted for "ja" even tho it was sarcastic just for the heck of it. We need a "do you lift weights" - yes or no - i'm guessing we would get about 10 people who lifted weights regularly - maybe less!!

amicek

well i'm guessing we would get about 100e99 people whom claim to lift weights to times a day or more. by the way I run, lift weights, gets drunk and have fun :) Doesn't every body?

oops! I forgot the programmig part. (kind of important since thats the most time consuming)

100e99? I doubt it, because there are only 6e9 people in the world. jk

You're right, there's gotta be more athletic calculator guys out there other than us two! heh, i played basketball and baseball in high school and tore the tendons in my thumb and now it's hindering my off-season programming of my 92 plus and 89. Not to mention that I think my college baseball coach is going to be unhappy when I finally mention to him that my thumb is in a cast for a while, basketball coach too for that matter... oh well, just venting steam cuz it sucks to be injured.

Relevence of ticalc.org surveys? Have you lost your mind, man/ma'am?
