Since I have very little else to do around here

Does anyone need any help leaning English?

Est-ce que quelqu'un besoin d'aucune aide à apprendre l'anglais?

Кто-нибудь нужна помощь изучения английского языка?

Weet iemand een hulp leren van Engels nodig?

有谁需要任何帮助学习英语？

Oh, I love all of the fancy characters!

Does anyone speak or read Latin?

Quis indigeat adiuvari cognita Anglorum?

Anyway. I'm leaning Hebrew too, so if any of you Hebrews or Shebrews don't speak English, I can be on hand for that too.

	Thank you, sir. I'm glad I can impress you. That's just a small taste of my oral skills. I'm mostly fluent in all of those. Except Cantonese. I'm still working on that. [Gatsby] That would be a delight, old sport. Much appreciated. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Goodness, that is certainly a talent you have. How on earth did you pick them all up? [Eames.] Oh, splendid. It would be a pleasure to help out. ~~Why do you want to~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Just for fun, really. Latin I learnt at school. And French. Russian for work. Dutch for work. Chinese on the side for some other work.

I started learning Hebrew because it sounds beautiful, but I'm sure I'll mess up the pronunciation.

[Gatsby]

Brilliant. Thank you! I really will mess up the pronunciation, but I'll give it a good go. Feel free to find some apt punishment to keep me on track. I'm a terrible student.

I picked up a smattering of French and other European languages on my travels, but simply enough to get by, nothing near fluent, and nothing that really stuck. You must have a wonderful aptitude for it.

[Eames.]

Beautiful? You think so? Well, I can certainly help with your pronunciation, I'm sure you'll do just marvellously. I very much doubt that you are a terrible student. Perhaps you will find me a terrible tutor.

	Well, whilst you probably won't need to use them, I can teach you some languages. Just for charming the ladies. Well, it's something I enjoy. And sometimes necessary. So- [Gatsby] Oh, absolutely. Listening to the Sabbath prayers is musical, almost. It's lovely. I highly doubt you'd be a terrible tutor, Mr. Gatsby. You're clearly patient and gracious. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Wonderful, that would certainly be a useful way of passing the time here. Well, that's good if it's something you enjoy learning. [Eames.] Oh. You've listened? I'm glad you think so. I'll try to be a good one, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent)
