Clearly you are not really mining because you mined 4 things with fewer than 27 pickaxes.

Damn you Zhayolm... damn you and your pickaxe-eating mountainsides

This is even better:

Melting glass in a microwave oven.


Making high energy plasma with a microwave oven.

The main screen resolution for "FINAL FANTASY XI" is dependent on the "Overlay Graphics Resolution" setting.
If the Overlay Graphics Resolution is set higher than the Menu Resolution, menus will be automatically resized.

Same origin as the "Marrid" threads, it's all the work of people whose native language is some sort of hyerogliphics letter soup and they attempt to communicate in "engrish" a relatively much easier language, but still fail.

There seems to be a bug in your image, you dug up a moblin mask without breaking your pickaxe.. Better drop one just to make sure you're on the up and up

Except english really isn't easier than most other languages.

the orthography is especially difficult. why write 'marrid' instead of 'marid' anyway? wait i know why: no reason at all.

as opposed to japanese, for example, where the phonetic writing system means the same thing all the time (barring allophones/phonemes, regional pronunciations, etc).

edit: oh, p.s. OP's post is awesome.

Oh yes it is. You barely conjugate verbs (like what, 4-5 different tenses opposed to French's and Spanish's 10+ ones), words have no sex (again, opposed to French, Spanish and even German) just to show examples.

I believe he was refering to engrish, not english. Which is somewhat an easier language compared to english if you want to count it as a language. .

This thread is way far away from the OP's humor now, but this needs some correcting. English is indeed on of the harder languages to learn. While your examples could be someone correct I suppose, you leave out the real challenges of learning to speak English. Such intricacies as multiple meanings for the same word, the order in which our adjectives describe our objects, and punctuation leave a much greater number of hurdles to creating a coherent sentence.

As far as the conjugating part, I really don't think you understand how (using Spanish/French as the basis of this) it actually makes it easier on the speaker/writer. By conjugating your objects as you use them, you actually save time, rather than having to clarify at some point what tense your object is in, and who it is reference to.

I'm sure someone who has taken a bit more foreign language than I could shed some more light on this, but this information stuck with me from my few years of Spanish, and our teacher directly confronting this issue.

This. Never mind that centuries of beating up other languages and going through their pockets for loose vocabulary has left English a bit of a ************ A fun one, that gives us words such as that, but I can understand why it would be a difficult language to learn, especially if the pronunciation rules of your native language make sense. Even French is better at that (or at least more consistent) once you realize half of what they do is to make the language sound pretty.

Ikkian's first language is French, so trust me, he's got the hang of it. But I think that multiple meaning to a word isn't a rather easy hurdle to overcome, especially if you have any ability to perceive context whatsoever. Our adjectives describes words in the opposite order other languages do, generally, that's like, one rule to learn. Punctuation is a bit difficult, but I honestly don't think it's something too complicated to master. Get periods down pat and you could at least make decently legible sentences, in my opinion. (Well, for someone who's in the process of learning the language, anyway.)
