English language

[Wild Bill]

This lesson from Englispod they calls "Elementary". No even any "key Vocabulary" because "dialog is quite simple"
Shit! I didn't understood it! May be only 1-2 words. And i already listened and understood their intermediate lessons :(

Can somebody translate this to English, please?
"eeling" and "oping" just missed first letters, this i understood.

"yays", "ays" and "hays" means nothing i think...

[Wild Bill]

or this is kind of joke about "elementary"...

[Kazuya Mishima]

Looks like pig Latin...google it.

[baffled]

Isn't that just Pig Latin?

[Wild Bill]

Pig Latin is a language game where words in English are altered according to a simple set of rules. Pig Latin takes the first consonant (or consonant cluster) of an English word, moves it to the end of the word and suffixes an ay (IPA [eɪ]) (for example, pig yields igpay, banana yields ananabay, and trash yields ashtray).

Shit!!! I listened this shit about 4-5 times!!! Bastards...


Thanks! You save my self-estimation!

[Kazuya Mishima]

IGX...making a better world.

[Wild Bill]

They thinks anyone knows about Pig Latin??? They don't even explain nothing...



Thanks a lot guys! It is really tortured me :)

[baffled]

You should find out who they are and punch them in the dick.

The namesake of this place loved Pig Latin. Garm would use it for emphasis...

[Kazuya Mishima]

Yes, we should hunt them down with Rottweilers in body armor, and then fuck them to death with machetes. Old country way.

The Russian way. Remember, Bill said we could all camp out at his place to take care of that wolf problem, but that he was going to use a hammer. Stray dogs too, IIRC.

Yakut TV. Tutorial video about how to hunt wolfs :) It seems they are really big problem there.

I understood only a couple of words :(

[Wild Bill]

I understood only a couple of words :(

such as "sure" and "no" :)

[Wild Bill]

As i understand from comments it is not english. But for me it sounds very "natural" :)
May be that episode from Englishpod was some April joke... "dialog is simple, so no any explanations needed"

It's always worthwhile to click the 'images' tab when you google something.

[nafod]

Had to google on momento mori which led me to wikipedia which led me to this pretty damn hard-over painting from 1495.

Wonder what kind of music he'd be listening to if born now?

[Wild Bill]

From related videos :)

Yeah, Pig Latin is one of those things people learn about as kids that's really kind of easy but is completely mystifying to foreigners. All languages have things like that. One thing that commonly does that is archaic idiomatic constructions that come up in folk tales and kids songs, so everybody who grew up with the language knows what's up, but second language people are mystified.

[Wild Bill]

Here! I uploaded it to youtube.
So, they did it as their usual episode, "language takeaway", "lets listen second time more slowly"... etc
They completely ruined my evening :)
