- rpastuszak 2y agoHehe, nope it's a quote from Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_language_is_a_dialect_with_an_army_and_navy https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_language_is_a_dialect_with_a... (I speak Polish and German, and had a short period when I was learning Hebrew while doing some projects for the Jewish Museum in Krakow ((ages ago, in Macromedia Flash times)). That being said, I'm good at forgetting the languages I studied as soon as I stop using them, be it some weird dialect of Middle Persian or Haskell) EDIT: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPJIMQS7C5Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPJIMQS7C5Q and https://karolinacicha.eu/en/sklep/9-languages-2013/ https://karolinacicha.eu/en/sklep/9-languages-2013/ (it's a fun album with songs in 9 languages spoken in that region, incl. yiddish, polish, Tatar, German, Romani...)
