I can somewhat relate, even though I was born in Germany, I've lived in the US since I was 2... yet I'm a bit more patriotic to Germany, than the US... Ich liebe Deutschland!! ♥ 3 persons have voted this message useful | |||

When the linguist rap that meramarina just posted has become the explanation to your life.

It is indeed awesome. Someone needed to say it, though, so I will: he says and writes "it's a mute point" in the first verse. That kind of made my ears cringe, seeing as it's supposed to be coming from a "linguist." But hey, it's all in good fun, I guess. 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

The "mute point" I thought was part of the joke - he's so busy studying language all day long, when is there any time to speak? Happens to me, too! (but this guy's a better dancer!)
Definitely nerdy enough for us here, I think! :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |||

When you find yourself on the sea floor, singing a song from your favorite Disney movie in your target language. Very tiring but very worth it! How many of you have sung "Part of Your World" underwater in Dutch?
Hm, now that I think of it, maybe this just makes me a Little Mermaid nerd, not necessarily a language nerd. But I've already written all this you get to read it. 1 person has voted this message useful |
