Nice thread! I am quite impressed at the multilingualism of our members. I know the many of the circumstances that have lead to so many of us being proficient in so many languages were not of our own choosing - but it is still nonetheless a great thing. I hope that you all keep practicing your knowledge of these languages - so you do not forget them. About me: English - Fluent. Persian - Fluent - though I still have a long way before I am satisfied. Arabic - Learning - slowly. German - Was fluent but have forgotten it all - hopefully I will relearn when I visit Austria. I unlike most people of Afghanistan never spent any time in Pakistan - so no Urdo or Pashto for me. Ahhangar : How many languages do you know? : Kambiz August 08, 2008, 04:08:28 PM Persian (native; most dialects)
Russian (close to native) Slavic languages (Ukrainian, Czech, Belorussian - good) German (used to be my third language; English replaced it though. Trying to catch up) Languages I taught and still teaching myself: English (fluent) Hindi (+ Hindi script Dewanagri - good) Urdu (better than Hindi) Turkish (fluent) Other Turkic languages, like Uzbek and Azeri - perfect understanding, good speech Arabic, Portuguese and some more (basic). : How many languages do you know? : PORS August 08, 2008, 08:57:36 PM Dorud Kambiz-jan:

Sepas baradar, Pors. : Unity;13000 It is not embarrassing at all. : How many languages do you know? : Nader Shah August 09, 2008, 12:37:19 AM Wonderful multilingual skills. You should be TJ's foreign minister. If you are not, you have the wrong connections - like those in India, Pakistan, and Bollywood, and London - please consult with PORS who will arrange a ministerial position in Rahmon's government. And I would like to see you, please don't refuse (for the sake of Bollywood), as TJ need you :) And so do we in Iran and Afghanistan :cool: OK I am crazy, you judge :eek:
: Kambiz;13064 Persian (native; most dialects) : How many languages do you know? : Dushanbe August 09, 2008, 01:31:08 AM My respect to you, dear Kambiz. I wish I was as hardworker as you are:)
: Kambiz;13064 Persian (native; most dialects) : How many languages do you know? : Nader Shah August 09, 2008, 02:20:18 AM Yes, good vibes :D But can you talk to Rahmon good things about Kamibiz Jon ? I am afraid Kambiz will not be so interested in a position in rahmon's government ... Dushanbe, since you think like Rahmon, do you think Kambiz would be a good foreign minister for TJ (I am serious) ?
: Dushanbe;13076 My respect to you, dear Kambiz. I wish I was as hardworker as you are:) : How many languages do you know? : Dushanbe August 09, 2008, 03:25:17 AM If I become a presiden, I will probably make him a minister of either education or foreign minister:D
But he is a talanted young person and will achieve a lot even without others' assistance. But, hey, why do you think that I think like Rahmon? (((:mad:))) It is not true : Nader Shah;13077 Yes, good vibes :D But can you talk to Rahmon good things about Kamibiz Jon ?

But sadly, according to my principle, Rahmon has to become my gardener before I happen to be his minister of whatever. That means it is never going to happen. First, we'll sweep him away to the dust bin of history. Then the future will be not as obscure as it is now. PS. What has your Bollywood inferiority complex got to do with it, Nader Shah jaan? :) Just joking mate. Trying to get the same kind of sense of humour as yours. ;) : How many languages do you know? : Nader Shah August 10, 2008, 05:35:17 AM Kambiz Jaan,
I have a superiority complex :D:p ! Glad to see you joking with me too :) I am feeling important ;) On a different note, have you ever considered setting up a political party in Tajikistan (and head it) and eventually run for offic (President - why not) ? I am talking seriously - no joking involved. Is it safe enough for someone as opinionated as you to be active politically in TJ ?

For example, some Tajik phrases, like: Dusti Man: Mi amigo. Modari Shumo: Tu Madre. Yo: Man. Nosotros: Mo. Tu: Tu. Usted: Shumo. El, ella, eso: Vay (U). Ellos: Onho Khub: Bueno. Behtar: Mejor. Behtarin: Bueno. Dukhtari vay: Su hermana. Khonai (Manazel) Onho: Su Casa. Dustam: Mi amigo. Dustamon: Nuestro amigo. Dustaton: Tu amigo. Dustash: Su amigo. Well, if you like more, I can open a section for teaching Spanish to you. I can to base in that book for add some words for you. Are you agree?. We can do a bridge between Tajikistan and the spoken Spanish community.
