Juan Luis Guerra, yes, I know him. It's not gay; it's music you'd hear in the background of a latino shop/hair salon. Grandes Éxitos is like "Greatest hits". You were probably listening to "quisiera ser un pez" and "ojalá que llueva café".CognitiveDissident5 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 17, 2021 8:15 pm The video is gay. But the guy can sing.
Reminds me of a guy I worked with a million years ago. His name was Lito and he gave me a CD called Grandes Exitos by a guy called Juan Luis Guerrera or something like that. Me and him used to do shifts together for this media agency where our job was to watch and translate zillions of TV ads and file them by country in a database. I did Dutch, Flemish and German into English and he did Spanish into English. He was from Peru I think, it's a bit hazy. On Sundays when there were only a few of us, he would bring in his music and I liked Grandes Exitos so he made me a copy.
I don't know if was gay music, you'll have to tell me.
Nein kein Deutsch. The whole die der dem den das is pure insanity designed to torture the human brain. I only studied it for 5 years in a previous life, can't speak it (apart from the basics. Ich spreche kein Deutsch. Wie spat ist es? Bis bald. Ausgezeichnet!) but can read and understand most of it if I pay attention. I speak Afrikaans to mother tongue level and as you know I am a professional Dutch to English translator. Flemish is the same language as Dutch, they just pretend it's not by speaking it with a different accent and changing a few slang words. So really I only speak 3: English, Afrikaans and Dutch. I had to switch off the part of my brain that was tuned in to German because it clashed with Dutch. I mean "die" means something different in each language and it got too confusing. Dutch and Afrikaans are super easy compared to German. Und wie viele sprachen sprichst du?TheRealSkeptic5000 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 3:26 pmJuan Luis Guerra, yes, I know him.

Sprichst du Deutsch? Wie viele sprachen sprichst du?!?!
"Only 3", lol. But what is your native tongue, exactly? I always thought Afrikaans was some dialect of Dutch and not a separate language.CognitiveDissident5 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 18, 2021 3:59 pm So really I only speak 3: English, Afrikaans and Dutch.
