BrainKing - Diskussionsforen (Languages)

Languages

Ask questions or just talk about different languages. Since BrainKing is an international game site supporting many languages, this board can be kind of useful.

Since we will be dealing with pronunciation of words rather than their spelling, I think it's useful to have a link to The sounds of English and the International Phonetic Alphabet.

To see translations of some frequently used phrases and sentences in other languages see Languages

Thema: Re: Can somebody help me with this?

Pedro Martínez: It needs some context. It doesn't make much sense to me.

Is efforts the right word? Effects would make a little sense, as from a will or estate. Though I have heard of someone trying something or taking a climb up a mountain and they could be said to be "expending a lot of effort" in their attempt.
