dholbach | good morning | 08:03 |
---|---|---|
dholbach | highvoltage: if you could have a look at zope.catalog in revu, I'd appreciate it :) | 09:06 |
dholbach | or rather the schooltool devs would :) | 09:07 |
=== cypher___ is now known as czajkowski | ||
highvoltage | dholbach: done (and advocated) | 09:17 |
dholbach | highvoltage: will you upload? | 09:18 |
highvoltage | dholbach: yes, sorry I tend to forget about that part :) | 09:19 |
dholbach | super, thanks | 09:19 |
* dholbach takes the dog for a walk | 09:19 | |
czajkowski | yay Murphy is back | 10:03 |
dholbach | :-) | 10:08 |
highvoltage | dholbach: btw, why are you learning French? | 11:56 |
czajkowski | it's a nice language | 11:58 |
highvoltage | difficult language too :) | 12:01 |
czajkowski | I think once a person has managed to learn English as not their native lanugage every other language must be easier | 12:03 |
czajkowski | highvoltage: do you speak any other language? | 12:03 |
highvoltage | czajkowski: Afrikaans is my first language and English my second language. I know a little Xhosa and I'm going for French lessons when I go to quebec | 12:04 |
highvoltage | czajkowski: I'm slowly learning Toki Poki in between, it's a fun language | 12:05 |
czajkowski | Toki Poki ? | 12:05 |
highvoltage | czajkowski: awesome constructed language. it only has about 130 words, of which 30 or so sound very similar to other words, it's meant to be super-easy to learn, so people from different cultures and languages can also pick it up quite easily and use it to communicate | 12:06 |
highvoltage | I mean, Toki Pona of course :) | 12:07 |
highvoltage | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toki_Pona | 12:07 |
czajkowski | interesting | 12:07 |
highvoltage | it doesn't use all the latin letters either | 12:07 |
highvoltage | and one word can mean a lot of things but it's designed in a way where it's always clear | 12:08 |
highvoltage | so oompa means sex. | 12:08 |
highvoltage | but it can also mean sexuality | 12:08 |
highvoltage | or gender | 12:08 |
highvoltage | or reproduction | 12:08 |
highvoltage | depends in what context you say it | 12:08 |
czajkowski | ah ok | 12:08 |
czajkowski | interesting | 12:08 |
highvoltage | when you count, you count "one, two, two-one, two-two, one-hand" | 12:09 |
highvoltage | one-hand-one, etc | 12:09 |
highvoltage | it feels slightly primitive but it's also designed to keep your thoughts good | 12:10 |
highvoltage | there's lot of illogical or weird things in English and similar languages that it doesn't do | 12:10 |
czajkowski | never head of this | 12:11 |
czajkowski | sounds interesting | 12:12 |
highvoltage | toki pona wiki has lots of nice info: http://en.tokipona.org | 12:13 |
dholbach | highvoltage: I learned it in school, but forgot so much again | 12:27 |
dholbach | highvoltage: for me it was more the opportunity to chat a bit of french in a funny group (we meet in a bar near here) and learn a bit again - it's a lot of fun :) | 12:27 |
czajkowski | learning langauge in a fun way is more interesting and you don't feel like you are in class | 12:30 |
dholbach | like last night we played something like the taboo game in french | 12:31 |
dholbach | it was great :) | 12:31 |
dholbach | alrightie... Indian food, here I come! :) | 12:32 |
czajkowski | starving | 12:34 |
czajkowski | fecker! | 12:34 |

czajkowski | hmm some garlic naan please | 12:34 |
