Not that much of a while, the language itself is rather easy in many ways, easier than Swedish to be honest.

And it makes the game so much cooler when you understand what the dragons and draugr say, especially Alduin.

Maybe we should start a language learning group. I like Swedish, it sounds surprisingly nice for a Germanic language (yes, I arrived at this conclusion after watching a whopping number of three Swedish movies :P).

It means weak. Because babies drink milk. Calling you a milk drinker is the same as saying you still drink from your mother's tit, or a baby.

Of course it isn't. I've been hearing and throwing the insult around since I was a kid growing up in Mexico. "Mamon" is a lot easier to say, though. :tongue:

ha that's the 2nd time in 1 thread that you've posted him....getting a stiffy for Stiffler are you? :P

ha that reminds me of some words in spanish having 5-10 different meanings depending on context but they say that if English isn't your native tongue that it's 1 of the harder languages to learn...I can't say that I disagree with all the silent letters and the "sometimes" vowels, WTF is that?

I suspected as much as it sounds like something that old Scots would say, especially while drinking. Also the Scotsman from the link blurts out a bunch of outdated insults, many of which that stem from Scotland

I'm confused. Why this picture of all the pics about milk and strong bones you could have used?
