How are you? = Kaip tau sekasi?
I am good = Man sekasi gerai
I am not so good = Aš nekaip jaučiuosi.

I am great! = Aš nekaip jaučiuosi.
I am good. Thank you. And you? = Man sekasi gerai. Ačiū. O tau?

Does anyone else smell spam?

^ How is it spam? No real discussion value, but i wouldn't call it spam.

Been there a number of times. Although I dont speak the language beyond the absolute basic. At a brief glance, it seems accurate

^I've seen Mods label threads/posts with more content than that as spam.

 

[Geck]

Totally useless, at any rate, given I'd have no idea how to pronounce any of the above.

It's not Spam just because somebody isn't interested in it. Whether it generates discussion or not, a Topic about a foreign language-- or foreign languages in general-- is perfectly valid.

However, SaturnVengeance, I would like to point out that starting too many Threads in a short period of time can be considered Spamming. This is from our FAQ:

Spamming can even just be posting too much. As a general rule, don't post more than two or three threads in a forum within a reasonable length of time.

So please just try to keep an eye on how many Threads you start.
