The Night Thread Mk. IX - Off Topic - FM24

Moronic elements in British society still continue to squeeze allegorical blood out of this tired and strained stone of a cliche.

I don't care if you know where it came from, it's boring, kitsch and pathetic.

I agree, the Keep Calm thing is utterly pathetic. Hate it.

It got killed to death by Made in Chelsea. If I were a senior government lawyer, I'd say that the government who designed it as a war propaganda poster still own the copyright, and sue to fuck everyone who's been stealing it.

Crown copyright expires after 50 years I think, which is why they're fucking everywhere.

Because it's a public domain template that is easily knocked up at very little cost.

I started studying Danish and first thing I did was opening the very last lesson to see how hard it will be.
Freaking hard.
But I swear I will handle it

The 'Keep calm and...' phrases aren't half as bad as hash-tagging on Twitter, come on now.

When it comes to languages. Slovak is the best at least in something

!

The most difficult language is Slovak

The most difficult is grammar structure. Slovak language is the only one with seven grammar cases (nominativ, genitiv, dativ, accusativ, local, instrumental, vocativ), exquisite words, soft and hard "i", declension of adjectives and verbs, in other words almost each and every word in this language is being declinated. There are many other characteristics which are not found in other world languages. It is said, or estimated, that it takes about 12 years to learn it completely, but the linguists say, that there is no one on this earth who can speak this language perfectly knowing all the grammar rules.

There are actually three guys who knows Slovak perfectly. Or better said, one is and two were.
Ľudovít Štúr - created the Slovak grammar

Martin Hattala - added y and decided to complicate it more than it even was.
And the only living is Ábel Kráľ.

And one thing that made me stop for a while and think today.
We say "dovidenia" (literally see you soon) when we are saying goodbye to somebody who we definitely will not meet anymore. I tried not to use it, but saying "zbohom" (literally God stays with you) seems weird.

I like our language
