Help I need Language!
Help! I Can't Language Good!
Do you need some help with another language?
Do you know how to read / write a language that isn't modern English, and want to help your fellow anon?
If so, this is the place for you.

How this works:
- You don't need to be anon when you are offering language aid.
- When offering language aid, post a comment saying what language you will helping out with
- Put the language you want to help out in in the subject line
- Put the language you want to help out in in the subject line
- Only one language per thread please. "I can help out with French and Vietnamese," for example is wrong. French and Vietnamese should go into two separate comments.
- If you are requesting spelling, semantic or grammar aid in another language you must remain Anonymous.
- You may post a comment requesting language aid, providing you do it in anon mode and there isn't already a thread going on for that language.
- If there is already an aid thread for your desired language going, don't start a new comment asking for help unless you posted to that existing thread, and haven't received a response in 7 days
- Please stick to the topic at hand (language aide). This isn't the place for chit chat.
- If you have had experience with a particularly good online language resource that actually works than feel free to link it here as a reply to the first comment.
- In the subject line, state what language it is and try to describe what the resource does.
- Links to resources go in the comment area.
- No pimped out fonts or embedded videos are allowed. They will be deleted.
- Just a note. If you do have phrases in other languages in your fills, it's only polite to include a translation in English at the bottom of your fill somewhere.

(Anonymous) 2010-02-09 11:57 pm (UTC)(link)If it's in a situation where one person is being stubborn and the other one's saying 'come on, don't be like that' 'Kom op, niet doen...' would work better.
I THINK that would work better, it's something like.
Canada doing his thing, Netherlands: come on, do so and so, Canada ignores, Netherlands: Kom op, niet doen...
Does that work?
I'd like it if you could link me to the fic afterwards! I will! But it may be some time XD
Just with the endearments, what do they mean? (lol) for translation sake, and also, how would you say 'my *Dutch endearment*' to each of those?
Re: dutch
(Anonymous) 2010-02-10 12:03 am (UTC)(link)they mean like sweetie, darling, honey... I can't really translate them, some of 'em are pretty stupid and I wouldnt'know how to. You'd say 'm'n snoepje' which is literally 'my sweetie'. 'M'n lief' is 'my sweetheart'. 'M'n schattebout' is... possible with a my __ situation, but preferably not. The rest, you can't really say 'my' in front of them without it sounding like you'r emaking fun of the other party.

(Anonymous) 2010-02-10 12:07 am (UTC)(link)'Let's go on, m'n snoepje'
or
'Let's go for a drive, m'n lief'
or
'Let's do this, schattebout/honnepon/rolmops'
Not in the actual fic but the correct context?
Thanks again
