What books have you read lately?

[Cairnie]

Whoever wrote that book really fails at French, I'm afraid. I've got a similar book called "The Little Book of Foreign Insults" and I've had Russian speakers confirm that it's not that accurate. Still fun though.

[Puruun]

I finished reading Eragon today, I'm going to read part 2 tomorrow. ^_^

[Shawn]

I just found a great book: How to insult your hosts in many languages.
Hunch, je vous deteste, vas crever.
Matyuv, yeb vas.
Tobbe = kuk suger.

.......teehee.......I think I know what that one is.

I read it. I also read Eldest and Brisingr. I thought they were fairly good. The film was pretty bad and the game was probably the worst thing I've ever played, though.

[Puruun]

Aww, I wanted to see the film.. Is it really that bad? I read the movie edition, it had photo's of the film and a different cover, which looked pretty nice, but I noticed that some actors look very different from the characters in the book. For example, the book says that Arya had black hair, but the actress had red hair.

You don't need to worry, I'm sure it's a fine film. As long as you don't get REALLY attached to the book you'll enjoy it. I've heard good things about it.

[Matyuv]

Matyuv, yeb vas.

Fail.
The first one isn't even a word and the second one isn't grammatically correct in this case.

I suspected there may be errors. Oh well, as yuou say Stacey, it's still fun.
It also says how to say "I shit in your milk" In spanish.

You fail brutally at Norwegian grammar.

[stan423321]

I can however translate almost whatever you want into Polish, if you're interested.

No, no Shakespeare or whatever.

EDIT: Typos.

[Rulez]

...and if he (Stan) wants too many Tings, then come to me, I'll translate it

...for even more than him!

Don't blame me, blame the book.

[Hunchman801]

Hunch, je vous deteste, vas crever.

Epic fail at French grammar too

[El Dango]

Also, there are no spanish, italian or german people here as far as I know.

Mostwanted is German, but he doesn't come here often.

[Xenon]

There are several German members here, but they only visit every blue moon.

[Hunchman801]

Raygirl is Spanish too.

[Limely]

Hablo español como una vaca frances.

Let's put it this way... The movie was horrible. But the movie was better than the book.

[Puruun]

Maybe the Dutch translation was better than the original. It's written by some teenager after all.

[blacklumbob]

my favourite book is either mortal engines or the soddit

[Xenon]

Has anyone here read Clockwork Orange?
