I messaged chris, but he hasn’t voted!!!!

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Grunty?

[Poulet Frit]

Has lots of grunts

[Manalive Smith]

English is basically what happens when you take a handful of Germanic languages and shove them in a blender with French for a while.

[Poulet Frit]

…the accuracy of that hurts

[Manalive Smith]

If we think Germans sound grunty? What do they think we sound like?

[Poulet Frit]

…annoying.
(Oh, and hello, manalive. I forgot to say that)

[Poulet Frit]

But…the German I know is all…really…idk just grunty. And like…it all comes from the back of the throat it seems like
*makes no sense*

[Manalive Smith]

The blender in question is named Norman.

[Poulet Frit]

…I work with a guy…and his last name is norman…I don’t like him

[Poulet Frit]

German doesn’t sound like it comes from the back of your throat, but it feels like it.
Does anybody else know German?? Am I making sense???

[Brooke AC]

Manalive, that is a wonderful description.

[Manalive Smith]

The Normans ruled over England for a few hundred years. The upper classes spoke French, and the lower classes kept speaking Germanic. You can still see the distinction in English. Everyday words like water or bread sound German; fancy words like poultry or venison sound French. It also explains why the English hated the French for such a long time.

[Manalive Smith]

And hello Kristen!

[Poulet Frit]

That makes sense. When I took french, some words were easier…

Hey, manalive. I’m sitting on my phone at work, but it’s ok, cuz my manager is also on her phone and we had an argument about zombies earlier

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

I know some German. You’re making a little sense. What German phrases do you know? Don’t worry about misspelling, I can probably piece together what you mean (though I might still correct your spelling and grammar).

[Masøn M.]

I can speak Meep but that’s about it…

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

MEEEEEEEP

[Masøn M.]

MEEEEPEEEEPEEEEPEEEEP

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

MEEEMEEEMEEEEP

[Poulet Frit]

Oh ummmm…
How about I type it in english.
I’m hungry
I’m thirsty
Sit, lay down, other dog commands.
My mom taught me how to say “where’s the beer” but I forgot it

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

I sadly know how to say “where’s the beer” in Russian. I probably butcher the pronunciation, though

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Can I close the polls yet?

[Poulet Frit]

It’s good to know where the beer is

[Poulet Frit]

Have at it

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Why, because it’s better than milk? I highly doubt that.

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

Kristen wins round 3.1 3-1 over Brooke AC. Brooke, you get an imaginary participation plaque! Kristen advances to the championship, and will face the winner of round 3.2! Incidentally, voting for round 3.2, Josiah the Carrot Stick v. Superchris01, is now live!

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

ANGIE HOW COULD YOU?!!?!? Just kidding, I really don’t care and I’m glad somebody voted for Chris. 🙂

[AuxCableAngie]

Because someone had to!

[Josiah the Carrot Stick]

’tis true. He deserves a vote!
