Paré de hacer algo, ça se dit aussi, bien que peut-être que ça soit moins commun que dejar de hacer algo.

"Parar de hacer algo" fue un portuñolismo. Em português se diz "parar de fazer algo".

American English (en-US)Malayalam (ml) dEhiN മാത്രമല്ല ഇവിടെ ഒന്നും എഴുതാത്തത്, ഏതായാലും എന്തെങ്കിലും എഴുതിയല്ലോ! അത് മതി. You're not the only one who never writes anything here; at least you wrote something! That's (good) enough. :lol: Usually, this thread gets hidden because nobody else posts anything here. I revive it every now and then ഇടയ്ക്കിടയ്ക്കിവിടെ എഴുതിക്കോണ്ട് by writing here every now and then, usually after looking for and posting some bilingual videos. :P

[flag=]en-CA[/flag][flag=]fr[/flag] I initially pensé que thought that this était le was the “Please post your message bilingually*” thread.

*Est-ce que c'est un mot en anglais? Is that a word in English?

American English (en-US)Malayalam (ml) Yeah, ചിലപ്പം ഞാൻ ഇവിടെ എന്തെങ്കിലും എഴുതിനോക്കുമ്പോൾ sometimes when I try to write something here I think, "Maybe I should have posted in the 'please post your message bilingually' thread instead!" :lol:
*Est-ce que c'est un mot en anglais? Is that a word in English?

Yes.

American English (en-US)Malayalam (ml) I almost can't believe I'm doing this, but ഇത് അമ്മ എനിക്ക് പഠിപ്പിച്ച് തന്ന ഒരു പാട്ടാണ്. മലയാളത്തിലും ഇംഗ്ലീഷിലുമാണ് വരികൾ. അമ്മയ്ക്ക് ഇച്ചിരെയൊരു നാണം തോന്നിയെങ്കിലും ഒരിക്കൽ ഞാൻ അമ്മയുടെകൂടെ ഈ പാട്ട് ഒരു auntie-യുടെ വീട്ടിൽ പാടി. this is a song my mom taught me. The lyrics are in Malayalam and English. I sang this song at an auntie's house with my mom once even though my mom was a bit embarrassed. :lol:

Oh, my dear fiancee [fiˈjænsi],
Come എന്റരികിൽ നീ dance-ee! You come dance next to me!
Hello, Sweet Seventeen!
Evergreen Hero-വാണ് ഞാൻ, I'm (your) Evergreen Hero,
Oh, my dear fiancee!

നിന്നെ wait ചെയ്ത് ഞാൻ തുലഞ്ഞു, I'm exhausted from waiting around for you.
നിന്റെ expectation താണാലൂ! (?)* You've gotta lower your expectations! (???)
നീ വരാത്തതിൻ cause എന്താ? Why didn't you come? (More literally: "What's the cause of you not coming?")
Father permission തന്നില്ലേ? Didn't your father give you permission?

(Repeat first stanza)

*I'm really not sure I got the last word of this line right or that I know what it's really supposed to mean. :P

American English (en-US)Malayalam (ml) Hi everybody, here I go again, പതിവുപോലെ എനിക്കിവിടെ പ്രത്യേകിച്ചൊന്നും എഴുതാനില്ലെങ്കിലും വീണ്ടും ഇവിടെ മലയാളത്തിലും ഇംഗ്ലീഷിലും എഴുതുകയാ. ഇയ്യിടെയായി മലയാളത്തിൽ അധികം വായിച്ചിട്ടില്ല. വർത്തമാനം പറയുന്നതുപോലും കുറവാ. writing here in both Malayalam and English as usual, even if I don't have anything in particular to write about. I haven't been reading much in Malayalam lately. I haven't been talking much (in it) either.. :? So I guess this is a good time for me personally to be posting in this thread then. :P

American English (en-US)Malayalam (ml) That's changed slightly as of today. ഇന്ന് അപ്പയോട് ഇച്ചിരെകൂടെ മലയാളത്തിൽ വർത്തമാനം പറഞ്ഞു. മലയാളത്തിൽ ഇച്ചിരെ വായിക്കാനും എനിക്കുദ്ദേശമുണ്ട്. I talked to my dad a little bit more in Malayalam today. I intend to read a little in Malayalam, too. First I'm planning to read part of this novel I've been stuck on out loud to my dad, then I hope to transcribe more of my grandfather's diary.

[flag=]fr[/flag][flag=]en-ca[/flag]Je voudrais I would like (to) post here more often. Je veux pratiquer I want to practice code-switching comme une manière as one way to use more of the French I do know. I keep trying to parler seulement en français même si speak only in French even though there are things I just don't know how to say or translate in(to) French.

American English (en-US)Malayalam (ml) Oh yeah, feel free to post here anytime! അങ്ങനെ ഞാൻ ഇവിടെ തനിച്ചല്ലായിരിക്കും. :D ഞാൻ ഇന്ന് ഏതായാലും അപ്പയ്ക്ക് പിതാമഹൻ ഇച്ചിരെ വായിച്ചുകൊടുത്തു. That way, I won't be alone here. Today, anyway, I read a bit of Pithaamahan to my dad. Still haven't transcribed any of my grandpa's diary today yet, though.

French (fr)American English (en-US) Eh bien Well, that's not a word in Malayalam! Mais vasistas est un mot en français. But vasistas is a word in French.

I know, but I couldn't resist trolling the troll. Sorry. :wicked: :lol:

പിതാമഹൻ ഞാൻ ഇയ്യിടെയായി വായിക്കുന്ന മലയാളത്തിലെ നോവലാ. Pithaamahan is the novel I've been reading in Malayalam lately.
Jawoll! What does this actually mean?

"Indeed!"

German (de)Chinese (zh) In letzter Zeit habe ich gefunden, dass ich deutsch und chinesisch nicht so gut kann, wie ich möchte, Lately, I've been finding that I don't know German and Chinese as well as I'd like, 所以这次我争取不用马拉雅拉姆语和英语而用德语和普通话写一个帖子。so this time, I'm trying to write a post in German and Mandarin instead of Malayalam and English. Eigentlich habe ich französisch auch nicht viel verwendet, Actually, I haven't been using French much, either, 可是在我看来,我的德语和普通话比法语更差。but in my opinion, my German and Mandarin are even worse than my French.
