I think the reason you can get away with smashing words together like that is you've go so many consonants wedged into every word, they sort of act like crush-proof barriers.

haha.. maybe Very Happy

though it is more because of the fact that "ananas biter" and "ananasbiter" is two totally different things.

by halfwise Thu May 22, 2014 2:53 pm

?? But....how?

by halfwise Thu May 22, 2014 2:55 pm

Google translate says the are both "pineapple chunks"

'biter' = 'chunks'. That's pretty cute.

by Ringdrotten Thu May 22, 2014 3:04 pm

Ananasbiter - small pieces of pineapple
Ananas biter - pineapple bites

by halfwise Thu May 22, 2014 3:06 pm

That's a pretty damn subtle distinction.

"totally different"?

by Ringdrotten Thu May 22, 2014 3:25 pm

Bites, as in "the dog bites the cat's tail" Wink

but more subject to the fact that we never use spaces- Norc

So how do you know when one word ends and another one starts? scratch

Waiting for 'The Battle of the Five Armies'... - Page 13 Z

instead of "fried chicken liver" it says "fried chicken lives" as in is alive
here it says "nicely used ladies, shoes and clothes" instead of ladie's shoes and clothes (there are a lot more grammar mistakes here, but whatever.... sko and klær is plural so it should be brukte, but it is still an awful sentence..)

it says "dust sucks bags" instead of vacuum cleaner bags (thingy)

a significant difference, i could go on forever..

by halfwise Thu May 22, 2014 4:53 pm

A vacuum cleaner is a 'dust suck bag'. Laughing

by Norc Thu May 22, 2014 5:06 pm

yeah, and a vacuum cleaner is a dust sucker, what's wrong with that?!

That's what I was thinking. Razz

I remember learning about all those crazy compound words in German. I can only imagine trying to learn them as a little kid. It took me long enough to learn how to spell my middle name....

they are still mentioning Benedict as both Smaug & Necromancer. Im a tad worried when its stated Peejers is going for an epic ending ! anyone else Id be excited but, peejers ??? He's a goof ball ! I hope Im wrong but, he's gonna go way over the top with this last hike into fairyland. I saw on IMDB that Beorns name cropped up, (with 'tails' not far behind) hes there to collect all the rings to get his points score up, get the emeralds & defeat Dr Eggman. I wish I could have happy, excited thoughts with this but, I am full of tummy sickening dread,....... instead,

So, inside the mountain facing a few dwarves he can't get his fucking shit together. But leave the mountain and attack Lake-town he'll be a "killing machine"? Yeah, makes sense. He was completely inept in the climax of DOS, why should he be successful in his attack on Lake-town? This doesn't make any sense.

What's wrong with your faaaaaace?!?!

I'm confused. As of now, this "epic" trailer has not been released publicly yet. So these "rumblings" are nothing more than:
"There will be a trailer."
Oh goodness who knew?!!?
