I found this here

IT EXPLAINS THE VOUS VS. TU PERFECTLY. [with some humour]

enjoy

A similar phenomenon is also found in French (1) and Portuguese (2)

(1) Pour te dire (To tell you) (2) Para te dizer

But not in Spanish (3) and Italian (4)

(3) Para decirte (4) Per dirti

If anyone is interested in that, the placements of the oblique pronouns in Portuguese are called próclise (pronoun before the verb, ex. Eu te amo), mesóclise (mid verb, in the future tense, more literary and very formal, ex. Eu dir-te-ia), and ênclise (after the verb, ex. Dizer-te).

In formal writing, unlike Spanish, you cannot start a phrase with an oblique pronoun, it has to be ênclise, but in speech that’s very uncommon in Brazilian Portuguese. We say “Te amo”, not “Amo-te”.

After a conjunction it has to be próclise, like in the example above “Para te dizer.”

Hey! @la-sicilienne How would that be in Sicilian?

To all conlangers, I think this might interest you !

This website vulgarlang.com helps you generate a language based on the input you give. You can select your phoneme inventory, choose your phonotactics and the way your words can be derived to build nouns, adjectives adverbs and other derivatives. It comes up with some phonological rules of its own.

This is for the free version (there is a full version for $9.95) but you can still have some fun with the free version. 

For instance, this is some of the words and grammar the generator came up with based on the rules I have made for my developing conlang : 

If it’s your first attempt at conlanging (like it is for me) it might be a useful tool to get some ideas when you feel stuck. 

Enjoy  !  

Mi fa ridere perché al nord il lavoro è lavoro, al sud il lavoro è fatica e poi ci sono le isole. Nella isole il lavoro è una tortura 😂

Qui si parla di lingue regionali parlate in Italia e di latino, non di italiano. Inoltre laborare significa letteralmente “preoccuparsi, affaticare, darsi pena, soffrire” e fatigare ne è soltanto un sinonimo.. Questa cosa che il lavoro al sud è una fatica faceva ridere solo a Zelig nel 2008. È uno stereotipo stupido pensare che solo al nord il “lavoro è lavoro”.

io sono stanco de tutti quelli stereotipi, veramente. Ma pare che tutti vogliano ricordarli sempre haha

Spanish verbs + “DE”

Many Spanish verbs need the preposition “de”, here you have a list (there’re more).
