    No - Не (Ne)
    Thanks - Благодаря (Blagodarya)

    Nice idea, Neoton, although I feel you should rephrase the current title to something along the lines of "Basic Language Phrases".

    German/Deutsch:

    Hello! - Hallo!
    Yes - Ja
    No - Nein
    Thanks - Danke
    How are you? - Wie geht es dir?
    I am fine - Mir geht's gut.
    Nice to meet you - Angenehm
    I can't speak very good German - Ich kann nicht so gut Deutsch (sprechen)

    "My grandmother gave birth to my mother, my mother gave birth to me" - "Mun mummoni muni mun mammani, mun mammani muni mut" This is so 'soft' to say due the many m- letters

    I'm hungry: Minulla on nälkä
    I'm thirsty: Minulla on jano

    I think the word you're looking for is 'schnell'. It's used to mean 'faster' or, in some contexts, 'advance forward' when in battle.

    I though Flemish was just a dialect of Dutch? Is it really classified as its own language? Swiss German for example is fairly different from standard German, but it's still considered German, just a dialect of it.

    Flemish IS dutch, but dutch dutch and flemish dutch are like Swiss and German. But never say that flemish is a dialect, it is a group of dialect that are as similar as german and letzburgish dialectologically spoken.

    Well, Finnish is easy to speak cause it's written as it is said. Or me thinks. English was hard to learn cause you say different than you write. Although I was about 8-9 years old when they teached it in school, so
