I'm fine speaking it I just don't think it should be our first priority, I think we should make survival techniques a priority

yes, I think it's one of the priority but not the most important ! (But it's a big one, the Na'vi is the reason why we are here together)

I think it's a good way to bond, a way to learn together and strengthen the tribe's bonds of family.

I think it would be the best decision to speak both Na'vi and English (right?)
Cause only speaking Na'vi wont be that easy for everyone, but also i dont know if everyone is good enough to make others know what you are trying to say in English :P

I think we should aim to ultimately be speaking Na'vi as the dominant language, we don't need to start with a 100% complete language either, it would evolve to suit our needs.
After four years learning it'd only take a few months messing around with it to come up with a practical language, once we have words like 'eco-toilet' and 'that's a deadly spider' rolls quickly off the tongue we should be fine.

I think it would help create more of a cultural identity (as opposed to just some people in a tribe) because it reflects our origin and what we hope to achieve, our inspiration in a way.

Hm... hopefully by then it'll be a complete language. But that isn't looking possible as of now.

Well, I haven't been studying much, so for me it's still just in a cloud.

I still have an enormous lack of vocabulary but I guess that by just using it everyday like I do I should be able to get pretty good :D

Seriously, once you've got the grammar down, you can understand anything written with just a good dictionary. It's not that hard and have a lot of potential for various subjects ;)

Yeah, but after what I've seen this weekend, it's no doubt I'm holding off everything so I can get out of depression.

Spoiler

All because I have the worst reaction.

That's kinda sad... But I understand you completely.

By learning this language, I realized that half of the people I know are actually... well... they are not interested by the same things as me anymore. And it strangely happens that all of those persons are my real life friends.

So yeah... I'm kinda depressed too right now.

You guys are talking about losing real life friends because off learning Na'vi?
Sorry but if they cannot accept that they are just acting ridiculous and they are not really your friends :-\

I didn't really lose any friends, it's just that we don't talk much since we don't have the same interest anymore...

No that's about right really, one of these "friends" of mine came up and told me I was wasting my life, completely crazy and that after all the things he'd had to put up with this was taking it too far...

We could always switch between Na'vi and English. Like, in my family there are two different languages being spoken, English and Chinese. I switch between them to accommodate to who I'm talking to. When I'm outside, I need to switch between 3 languages which includes Malay.

So for those who can speak both English and Na'vi, you can always accommodate to who you're talking to.

That's what I think.

That's pretty much what we have been saying, also that perhaps learning Na´vi is a long term goal once the tribe has been set up and is comfortable. There is no need to make this more difficult for people than it already is. Personally I am going to (try XD) and keep learning it before the tribe gets started. If we have any profficient speakers then they can teach the rest of us :D
