Who's bilingual, trilingual, etc?

[Kurben]

Probably you will be astonished... I read between the lines the Bible in Hebrew. But I don't know this language... although I know much ancient Jewish secrets through the Bible. Paradox? (I myself suspect I am a genius. )

Well, the new Testament was originally written in Greek so you don't need Hebrew to read about Jesus message.

Yes, I think the new Testament in Greek contains between the lines much secrets also... As the old Testament in Hebrew. But secrets from the old Testament are more old...so more interesting for me. By the way, I dream one day to study The Book of the Dead in hieroglyphs. Or stories about Anunnaki in the cuneiform inscriptions.

Wish i could read them. I just have to trust translators. Old secrets in abundance in both hieroglyph and cuneiform. Study on.

And some of the Apocrypha were written in Aramaic

Reminds me of something I read on-line recently about the angel who appears to Hagar...the the angel was actually Lucifer since what she said to him and his response suggests a being other than Yahweh. Too...there's something about a wild ass hiding from the noonday sun...all figurative metaphoric...or metaphoric figurative, camel-like.

True, but as i remember it (probably depends on which scholar you are reading though) they were supposed to be translations from greek. Not thats its a big deal. The more ancient texts we have, wherever from, the better. In whatever language.

Absolutely. Even if you don't believe a word of the dogma, the glimpse into ancient lives and traditions is fascinating

i learned French in school apparently my subconscious and my ear were working overtime, because I was asleep most of the time and dreaming of being the new SK/brucie. Apparently I learned pool, you play pool in computer programming lessons instead of German, yes she was very impressed when I turned up once. come to think of it so was I. Ich bin ein Dubliner. I can speak basic Irish which is a Celtic language and probably one of the oldest in Europe. In Ireland about less then 10% can speak Irish. I like the language and am ashamed I am not fluent in my native tongue. tried learning portugese got as far as ola and gave up. oh does COBOL, C, java and c++ count????????????????

 

[skimom2]

They should. I'm absolutely mute in any computer language, and admire those who can 'speak' computer .

What Old and New Testament secrets?

 

[The Nameless]

Has anyone had any success using Rosetta Stone or simillar programs? I have access to Rosetta Stone and many languages.

 

[Jojo87]

My native language is Finnish and Swedish. English comes as the third one. So that makes me trilingual I think.

To read between the lines is not very difficult work. It is necessary only to know alphabet and have a good dictionary. But important thing is your intuition and imagination. If you have wish I think you might do it.

Information between the lines as a rule is a very practical one.

What Old and New Testament secrets?

Most of "secrets" are not secrets really. I have read in the Old Testament about healing of lungs, methods of hunting, organization of society. But I have read also about different brotherhoods. Whether this information is secret? I don't know. For example, between the lines the verse Ezra 2:43 contains words (in Hebrew) chofeshi - banai -ayin - tov - tav or ( in English ) free - mason - eye - good - mark. Secret or already well-known fact?

I am interested in the Aramaic and Sumerian dictionaries. Are free links?

 

[booklover72]

would love to read 'The book of the dead' in Hieroglyphs.

if you want to learn a programming/internet programming language learn HTML 5 or JavaScript, you can use the SKMB therefore you can design a web page. In Internet p.l there are no loops if else statement so it is easier. Just google javascript and enrol (if you have time) free and within an hour you will have your own web page.

Which is why I took away from it all. (If you're going to reject something, first know what it is that you're rejecting. )

Back to the topic:
Fluent: English (debatable at times)
Intermediate: French, German (learnt in school; currently refreshing (I also have a German aunt and a cousin whose first/native language is German))
Basic-intermediate: Danish (picked up a little from an ex-gf; learning)
Basic: Italian, Spanish (learning)
Very basic: Russian, Norwegian, Swedish, Ukrainian (learning)
Can just about say 'hello', 'goodbye', 'please' and 'thank you': Arabic, Chinese (Mandarin), Estonian, Greek, Polish. (learning)

My big problem is that I can understand what I read and hear, but struggle when it comes to formulating sentences and/or phrases. I have a tendency to over-complicate things or look for the 'elegant', 'correct' way rather than something that'll serve and still make sense (or that turns out to be the language as it's used by native speakers).

No sorry, the most exotic languages I can get are Swahili, Filipino, Manderin etc, and they're "a bit moody" so I don't think Ms Mod and co would appreciate me posting links. I have started the German level 1 (there are 5 levels - each with 5 main sections), I just don't know how far that alone will get me, even if I can get my head around it.
