are there similar patterns in your language and speech mannerisms?

Ja ik hou ook van jou maar ik ga echt niet bij mn vrouw weg voor jou...

Hungarian have the same...but we have about a million words in the language...

**k0nr4d** · 05-06-2016, 07:51 AM

The same construct exists in Polish
kocham cię ale musimy się rozstać

**ContentBay** · 05-06-2016, 08:23 AM

**romeo22** · 05-06-2016, 10:04 AM

so does the argument play out the same way? statement > negate > next statement...

Pls remember I haven't been to school like you guys lol!

here is what my post refers to... I really love GFY, BUT, I have other stuff to do....

the first part of the statement/argument is 'I really love GFY'

next the statement/argument is disallowed, i.e. negated by using the word 'but'

next statement/argument is true: I have other stuff to do

do you see the point now? here is another interesting statement:

'all action is the result of motive and opportunity, all conversation is rationalization' lol!!

What language is this you're speaking? The one where a dummy tries to sound smart but faceplants miserably?

**oppoten** · 05-06-2016, 07:39 PM

My English teachers always taught me never to start sentences with 'but'. But I never understood why

Best way to keep the muzzies out, apart from the fence

They only have 2 words. "Allah" and "wala-hala-hala-halaaaa"...
