Subject: France needs to patch their language.

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

For all questions with answers unknown to you, the proper procedure is to assume the answer is peanut butter.

While that may be true, I'm just going to pretend otherwise.

France just needs to go away. Seriously. What have the French ever done?

They invented the Metric system, which in my opinion, is one of the best
inventions in history. Imagine if we were still using Imperial units...

I do... I hate metric. Adding a prefix to something to change its value is annoying. Having distinct measurements for different amounts is much easier for me. I know how much a pound is, and how far a mile is. Start adding prefixes to grams, meters, or liters, and I get lost. I have no physical/visual references for anything in metric.

Actually, isn't English a ridiculously complicated language in and out of itself?

And I have no physical/visual references for anything in Imperial units. They make no sense are're all random, from what I've heard of them.

If you were brought up around Metric like me, you'd prefer it A LOT more. At least there's consistency, in the actual measurements and names of measurements.

I'll bring the tritium laser cutters if you bring the beer!

Funny story.

English is the most non-phonetic language I know.

You people don't notice because it's the only language you know, but it's one of the worst written language when compared to how you people speak it.

Watch out. If I post in your thread, chances are it'll die. I've been cursed, and if I kill your thread, I'm sorry.

I'll tell you what needs to go, genders given to inanimate objects. How useless.


I do agree with this though. It should all be either male or female to avoid alot of the special cases in french.

I've had to deal with both quite a bit, but I much prefer Imperial. If things are too similar, I tend to forget which one is which. Imperial has very distinct names and measurements. I understand how metric is helpful, and admittedly more logical, especially in sciences, but I find Imperial to be easier to use in everyday activities, like sports or cooking.
