ABC Miniseries: The Lost
Cant wait for next week to see what happens to Henry Gale! Whats his story gonna be now? He probably is one of the others. But what will Locke do now that he has given Henry his word and after how Henry helped him out? What the **** were those alien writings on the wall? And what the hell caused those blast doors to go down? I think I know what that dharma mac was. Theyve discovered the fat guys secret stash. I dont think that ranch dressing is all he has been hoarding. Im not sure about the balloon though. I doubt that ana lucia and sayeed dragged back the balloon from the tree. Probably a cover that the fat guy was using for his secret food stash. Lots of juicy **** to come!!!!!

ABC Miniseries: The Lost
All shows need a hot, bitchy and dumb california blonde. I agree that it was a huge mistake to let her die. I also think that Boone shouldnt have died. That annoying **** Charlie should have been killed off.

Maybe that's your cue to watch a little less Trek Still, we don't have much choice now that the show is cancelled, do we? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I dont watch star trek. Like I said, I dont like seeing these strange faces on TV

I believe the events of the game happen between Season 2 and Season 3. Chase, IIRC, was another excellent field operative for CTU that came in between the seasons. He's probably a relatively recent recruit in the game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You're right. Chase Edmunds was Jack's partner in the field *as well* as Kim's boyfriend in season three. He was never introduced until he was suddenly Jack's buddy in season 3. In fact, there was lots of untold stuff between seasons 2 and 3 due to the lost cliffhanger of season 2. I think they placed the game there to remedy that situation. Anyway, for more on Chase, look here at what the official website has to say. I should probably add a spoiler warning to that, since the events described there all take place after the game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What game are you talking about? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> This Weird?!? Those are real people. They're acting, but they're still real. I wasn't surprised that McGill's sister was killed - it was pretty obvious that she and her boyfriend would not be allowed to survive a deal with terrorists. That they thought they could come out of it alive just shows they were more stupid that the law (or the plot-writers) allow... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know theyre real. But they still look like they popped out of star trek to me.

Anyway I voted Audrey Raines, because I want her to die because she looks really wierd. And thank god that druggie sister of the fat guy in charge is dead. I cant stand these strange looking characters, they look like something out of star trek.

Worst sounding languages?
Ive found that german is actually quite soft. Even english spoken with a german accent sounds quite soft. On the other hand I find languages like spanish and italian to be very hard.

Its easy to tell apart thai and vietnamese from filipino. The thai and vietnamese languages are tonal like chinese. On the other hand, filipino is not tonal and I believe is spoken in a similar manner to italian or spanish. Also, in thai and vietnamese, the words have only one syllable each, while in tagalog it tends to be much more. ex. magkasingkahulugan(tagalog for synonym)

<{POST_SNAPBACK}> i like cantonese compaired to mandrian, although all asian languages (expect japanese) have this whining quality to it which irritates me. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think this whining quality is because the languages are tonal, which means the same syllable when said in a different tone means something else. Malay and Tagalog are not tonal though.

Yeah. Ive heard people from places like Kenya, some of the other east african countries, sierra leone and others speak english, and its ok, even cool, but some people from africa have got this terrible way of speaking and pronouncing english, as if each syllable has to be carefully shouted out.- Worst sounding languages?

Yeah, why not?- Worst sounding languages?
Their old albums are crap, IMO. They start getting really good with reflections, when drumming is added to the music instead of just boring cellos! In apocalyptica some of the songs have vocals which are in english and are decently done, although the voice sounds a bit whiny.- Worst sounding languages?
That was awesome! One of the best finds ever. Happy happy joy joy! What would really fitted that clip would have been finnish version of that song starting to play on background. It- Worst sounding languages?
I think english is more abrasive than german. German has all those nice sh sounds. I thought that at first. Then I did it through GCSE (2 years) and A-Level (2 years)- six damn years including the two before GCSE. By the time I had taken my last exam in it, I was sick to the teeth with its crap grammar and irregular everything. It wasn't barbarians, or internal decay that ended the Roman Empire; it was A-level Latin students. That said, I still keep it up. And its nice spoken, and the poetry, especially Catullus and Virgil, is some of the best ever. Damnit. Other than that, I like Italian, French, English (especially older forms) and Arabic (ancient Egyptian sounds nice too, if you can fimd someone who can pronounce it). Can't stand German. I've always thought you can tell a lot about a language by the way it says 'I love you' and I hope nobody ever tells me 'ich leibe dich'. Welsh (either the language or accented english) makes me want to pull my own teeth out. Never heard Finnish before that video, but I thought it sounded ok. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ich liebe dich (pronounced as ishleebudish, i think) sounds a whole lot better than Ay lav yOO. I think that to a lot of non native speakers, english is a very harsh language. I think the worst is the american accent(not sure which area, i think its the california one) where they substitute short o's for strong a's.- Worst sounding languages?
This isnt bigotry, this is personal taste.- Worst sounding languages?
I think tagalog is quite balanced in its vowels. But yeah, loads of words have g's in them. And k's too.- Worst sounding languages?
What language have you heard that has the worst sound of them all? A week ago, some vietnamese people at the place I work were talking to each other, and one of my coworkers told me "WTF kind of language is that?". It was horrible, it sounded like they were spitting and vomitting at the same time as speaking. I am very well exposed to other eastern languages, like mandarin chinese, cantonese, japanese and korean, and they all sound ok, even nice in their own way. But vietnamese is a completely different story.- 24
