Yes, but they are just lots of small words put together.

Zugstationplattform = Zug (Train) + Station (station) + Plattform (platform).

Quite simple in some respects.

That's true. We do that too. That word I just typed dissected looks as following:

Meervoudig+persoonlijkheids+syndroom

=

Multiple+personality+syndrom

Ah. The English are smarter. They'd just call it MPS.

 

[Slagathor]

The English smart? I have some trouble with that sentence

Es schmerzt mich auch.

Maybe this thread should be renamed as "language learning" or something.

 

[mikhail]

It really should. That, or we should all get warned for derailing the thread.

Nina might prefer the latter.

 

[Slagathor]

Don't worry! The saviour is here :strong:

 

[mikhail]

Be careful, oh Saviour. Gray might take exception to your use of the name.

 

[Slagathor]

True but he's supposed to turn the other cheek so...

 

[mikhail]

Regardless, can you change your member status to "El Salvadore"?

 

[Slagathor]

No, only Martin can do that and he's not going to :groan:

 

[mikhail]

Lazy sod. Is there enough interest for a Martin-bashing thread while he's away? The look on his face when he got back would be worth the price of the plane ticket to Norway.

You should know that Italian newspapers aren't written like any other newspaper. They language that is used (particularly in sports newspapers) is very colourful and your knowledge of the Italian language would have to be beyond basic to be able to understand it.

Beyond a basic you could teach yourself, that is. Especially in your case when the two languages you speak are Korean and English, none of them resemble Italian an awful lot

i disagree.

Learning Italian I guess?????

Probably asleep. He might keep bizarre hours, even for an Australian, but he has to wind down occasionally
