How To Learn Other Languages In Wow

2015-02-21,01:53 PM

I've been thinking... I dedicate a lot of fourth dimension playing WoW, and so mayhap there's a manner to learn a new linguistic communication while playing, I've been thinking German, by installing the German language bundle and larn some new words by translating some I know in game, for example Ironforge might be translated into "Eisen schmiede" (don't know if they actually interpret the urban center names, in spanish they practice).

So, I wonder if there is a type of addon that allows me to interpret text in the go?, for instance in Twitch chat via a download yous can install in your browser an addon that by double clickin' the comment it translates it.
Because I'thousand bound to non know what the hell the quest is sayin' and translating a few words might requite me an thought.
Or maybe Blizzard can do something about information technology?, that'll exist a great fashion to make people learn new languages in their game

Have a farewell!

I learned english, thanks to english language language integration in NA WoW client (french beingness my native language).

WoW has certainly helped improve my English language, in that location'south a huge difference betwixt when I started this game and now (well, English is also everywhere in our lives, and so there'southward that). I think High german might be a little harder to learn, especially if y'all oasis't followed at least some bones training in information technology (information technology has many more grammar rules than English, for case), but if yous want to become for information technology it might be most efficient to just roll an alt on an actual German realm (with the related client). Talking to an seeing people talk in a new linguistic communication is the easiest (and best) way to larn information technology (I've tried to learn German in the past by myself simply information technology only didn't work considering I didn't encounter it plenty on a daily basis unless I went out of my manner for it).

Unless y'all already know a lot (enough to sympathise quite a fleck) learning a new language is not going to work.
You will be more busy translating then anything else and it will learn you zippo.
Games in general actually helped me with my English language, simply i needed some basics first.

As someone who's studying Japanese in college, I can say that learning a language isn't the aforementioned as just being able to translate a bunch of words or sentances.

Yes, y'all might be able to develop a pretty nice German language vocabulary doing something like that, but then what are you lot going to do with it ? If you're not familiar with the grammar, you won't be able to put it to whatever use. I would say that such an activeness should be complementary to another kind of teaching (courses, higher, etc, cocky education even, if you can/accept the will for it) rather than the "main course". If you're already learning a language "properly", then learning vocabulary this way would certainly assistance.

I call up it'southward a bad idea, really.

While the German client uses right grammar well-nigh of the time, it as well contains a lot of fantasy-specific words that aren't common in regular German language.

The difficulty in learning German isn't learning German words, and so y'all won't acquire German by learning some words. The difficulty of German is its circuitous grammar, its conjugation and its declination.
You wouldn't even larn proper German language by reading Germans, considering a large part of Germans tin't and don't use proper grammar, either.

Games in general really helped me with my English, simply i needed some nuts offset.

My basis in English was "Hello, my name is Diego, I'1000 from Spain" and a few more random things like my age or my favourite music. I couldn't sympathize anything, in fact my first raids were with Skype open for direct translate...

Over the last 8 years WoW has been able to teach me English and at present I live with information technology in both, WoW and RL.

In my stance information technology is all about going bananas with something and forget about the language, simply transate for the sake of understanding and, eventually, yous'll discover how much yous are learning.

It will be easier with English language than other languages, which D-angel already stated. It might work for some languages, of course depending on the words existence translated. You might learn some basic stuff from it.

The difficulty in learning German isn't learning German language words, so you won't larn German language past learning some words. The difficulty of German language is its complex grammar, its conjugation and its declination.
Yous wouldn't even larn proper German language by reading Germans, because a large function of Germans can't and don't utilise proper grammar, either.

It helps though that German, English (and Dutch likewise) are very closely related and in the aforementioned language family. Their grammer is not identical, but it is very like. It'due south much easier for a speaker of i of those three languages to learn another of them than it is for them to learn a language in another family entirely.

Don't expect it to happen overnight. If it isn't supplemented by other exposure information technology will take a long time.

This is an splendid idea really, and I'd love to do the aforementioned. I attended German classes a few months ago and I've got to grips with the basics and some of the grammar so information technology would be nice to learn some additional words and phrases through WoW.

Surprisingly plenty, English language is the hardest to larn language. I accept heard of people learning this mode, yes. Only it does take time. If y'all play every day, for a few hours a solar day, you should be able to take hold of on quite well.

I grew up with games, and particularly games in the english language language.

I never had to report for english-course because of that and my english language is FAR from perfect.

THE all-time way to acquire a language is to get live in the county they speak it, everything else is merely good or ok.

What an absurd statement.

While I can't judge Dutch I know that German and English have very different grammer, even basic sentences differ a lot, especially through cases which English language doesn't have. While both languages accept a SVO lodge in actually basic sentences, it tin can already differ including indirect objects: "I (S) gave (V) the gift (IO) to you (DO)" will translate to "Ich (Southward) gab (V) dir (Practise) das Geschenk (IO)."
There are 12 different ways to translate "the" lonely, dependent on meaning, case, and gender of the word. Yes I said gender. Basic example: "Der Baum" ('the tree' – male person)
"Der Baum ist schief." (the chair is lopsided).
"Der Stamm des Baums ist hart." (the trunk of the tree is hard).
"Der Mann lehnt an dem Baum." (the man is leaning against the tree)
"Der Holzfäller schlägt den Baum" (the lumberjack chops the tree)
That's the 4 cases, for a male person field of study/object. However there are also female ones and neutral ones.
As you could see to a higher place, the tenses also differ (simple present and nowadays progressive all translated into Präsens).
German has the post-obit tenses that are all separated into active, progression passive, status passive as well equally indicative and conjunctive way in add-on to the perons (personal pronouns) (I, You, He/She/Information technology, We, You, Them):
- (nichterweiterter, erweiterter) Infinitiv Präsens, Infinitiv Perfekt
- Präsens Aktiv, Perfekt Passiv, Gerundivum
- Imperativ
- Präsens
- Präteritum
- Perfekt
- Plusquamperfekt
- Futur I
- Futur II
Meaning the boilerplate German language verb can have up to 200 different forms (if I didn't miscount).

EDIT: however similar I said, most Germans can't speak proper High german either, so if one is trying to learn it from them, they will probably larn it incorrect.

That explains why nearly the entire earth population has a basic knowledge of English... You lot should try Icelandic, I once heard that was actually ane of the hardest languages to primary. Don't quote me on it though, I don't call back where I heard it.

English language is easy to acquire only extremely hard to master.
Language difficulty is greatly influenced by your native linguistic communication. It's easier to learn a language that is related to your native i.
