The Two Towers....in glorious Engrish

[fgalkin]

"Follow, You fools" (Gandalf in the Bridge of Moria scene)
"Can you not see that your uncle is varied by your mall content"
"You are warm hungry"
"Too long I wanted my sister"
"I am Arogon son of Alfred"
"Fangor what magums troop might be there"
"We are not oaks, we are hobiks"
"bring your pussy face to my ass"
"Sharuman will be using his puppet Sharuman to destroy people of Rohan"
"The Sharuman is attacking the Isengard" (I'd love to see that one)
"And two man. Aragon son of Haratron (wasn't he the son of Alfred earlier in the movie?) and Borodel of Gondor"
"How would I gambling?"
Gimli: "Toast me"
"I say you got to toast me"

Have a very nice day.

To get all scientific and lecturey:

the devlopment of the language, auditory and speech centres of the brain really are dependent on the language. The reason Oriental-speakers get r and l confused is because they are not used in Chinese or japanese, and the part of the brain that is able to tell them apart does not develop.

Correction: "r" is used in both Japanese and Chinese (arigato, renminbi), it's just when another consonant is placed in front of the "r" that ploblems occur. "l" appears in chinese, but does not appear in japanese.

Actually, Innerbrat's right about Japanese, at least. It's only transcribed as an 'R' becasue it's the closest equivalent in English. Trust me, hearing a gaijin speak Japanese using English 'R's is horribly painful, like nails on a chalkboard. I clench my teeth whenever I hear that awful gaijin accent try to pronounce 'thank you' as "ARRiGatOu!!"

Yeah... we were learning about Shinto in Humanaties, and the teacher kept pronouncing torii "Tor-ie". Arrgh! I corrected her like five times, too! >_<
