Thumbs up Multi language link - starting from here

I'm trying to learn Sotho with poor devices because here, in Italy, there aren't dictionaries nor grammar books.
So, I would like to start here an anchor for all european and african people who wants to learn about other lenguages.
I hope it can work!
I please you all to add same terms in Zulu, Afrikaans, etc., and correct all wrong words!

Hi Calibano

I corrected the French part. I'm Swiss so I've got to be used to French and you can belief my corrections.

Ciao Callibano

Il tuo francese è veramente male, mi dispiace . Hai scrito in francese "Je suis tres joly". "Je suis tres joly" è la stessa come "Sono bellissimo" in italiano. "Sono molto contento" è "Je suis content" in francese. Non sono sicura se mio italiano è bene ma penso che tu hai capito il mio indizio.

Cool

Nici_K, lo so che il mio francese non è buono (il tuo italiano si! ).
Purtroppo è da molto tempo che non mi cimento nello scriverlo.
Le mie intenzioni, in effetti, sono proprio quelle di sbagliare così poi, come te, gli altri partecipano correggendo.

So... I please you to continue the finding errors.

But... why there aren't any southafrincans here???

I have the Afrikaans ready to add, but I'm seeing how much Xhosa I can put on the list too. Patience, friend!

If anyone is interested I could add the Swiss German as well. Or as an easier alternative the German. Just let me know.
