How do you teach yourself it [I'm genuinely curious, no slamming]?

I love this advert, depicts a hundreds years of our history. Said it before but Churchill's voice actually tears me up, sometimes.
My granddad fought in that war, and my great-granddad in WW1. They both lived, proud of them both. =]
well, you hit the history books!
I read and read about cultures and stuff on books, atlases, on the internet, and I watch history/culture stuff on TV
since I was 6, I was interested in history with my first interest was Ancient Egypt
I know all the capitals of the world except the African ones (well some XD)
Oh. I was it. It looks patriotic.
That's cool. They fought in both wars. Maybe you read that one of Robert's ancestors fought with the Maoris in New Zealand and in WW1
I think from my mom's side {maybe}, one of my ancestors fought in the reconquest in Spain against the Muslims and I know I have more ancestral background but that's where I stop.
Really? Blimey. I couldn't remember all the capitals of the world for all the money on Earth.
It's cool that you're so interested in something so mind-stimulating. =]
Wait, I know my grandadd lived... but apparently my great-granddad DIED. I thought he'd lived. O.o
Well blow me down.
=(

Ooh & yeah. John Mallaband helped the founder of steel, what our city is famous for. Basically, without John Mallaband, my ancestor, ya'll might not have steel.
Okay, maybe that's a bit far, but regardless, we're part of a huge history. xD

I just asked my mom, she doesn't know but she said maybe they fought in Spain lol XD
I want to learn the Na'vi language!
I have no idea why there's an apostrophe in "Navi" but that's how they write it lol
Na'vi sounds complicated xD

Share what?
And never heard of Na'vi. {unsure}
share that one of your ancestors help make steel XD
Na'vi is the language of Avatar
I've never seen it. Is it a real language or fictional? LOL, the idea of learning a non-existent language sounds good to me.
And oh, haha, that's cool, please do!
