Unknown2dark Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 I can speak Arabic and English (in the game), but currently managing S.S. Lazio, I was wondering, will I be able to learn Italian soon? and does not speaking it really affect that much? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nev147 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 In time you will become fluent in Italian yes. I'm not sure of the real efffect in the game - apart from when you get a job in a foreign tounge that you are not fluent in - the press say will it be a problem in the appointment pres conference - I think that it is purley cosmetic - a bit like Capello with England. I dont think it will have any adverse effects in not being fluent - but it should not take too long! Thats just my take on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenChap Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 When Ancelotti started his english wasnt all that, but he still yelled at the Chelsea squad in Italian and it worked so I guess, "football is the only universal language" you need Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertcornell68 Posted May 4, 2010 Share Posted May 4, 2010 It seems to take a year to learn a language. Spanish, Russian, Portuguese and Czech after one season but Ukrainian, Turkish and Norwegian didn't take when I took over mid-season. I hoped it would make a difference but Brazilian players don't seem like me any more than the French ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trekman Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 When Ancelotti started his english wasnt all that, but he still yelled at the Chelsea squad in Italian and it worked so I guess, "football is the only universal language" you need Ray Wilkins can speak both Italian and English so he probably translated or did the team talks.

Kenco Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I managed Ivory Coast for 2 years and now speak fluent French. Now thinking of trying my hand with Italy as I've always wanted to learn Italian! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puevlo Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I've managed in Wales for like 3 years but still don't know any Welsh. Why is this? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedzo Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I've managed in Wales for like 3 years but still don't know any Welsh. Why is this? There was a thread about this mate, for some reason (probably because Wales is classed as a part of the UK) it hasn't got it's own recognised language on FM Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenco Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I've managed in Wales for like 3 years but still don't know any Welsh. Why is this? Don't worry, there are plenty of Welsh people who don't speak it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lankylars Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 You should pick up Italian fast. When I was QPR head coach in England and simultaneously took the Czech Republic national job, I learned Czech in about six months time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somerandomguy Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 I decided to try a Milan game, where I changed the language in settings to Italian until I learnt the language in game. It was confusing to say the least.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excolo Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Im currently in 2029 and along with managing clubs in England and Italy, I have been having short stints with various national teams with the aim of learning new languages with most of them. So far I have managed; Belgium, Italy, Brazil, Cameroon, Mexico, England, Spain, Czech Republic, South Korea.So now my manager is fluent in: English, Arabic, Czech, Dutch, French, Italian, Korean, Portuguese and Spanish and currently waiting to for a new national job to become available. Moving around the various national teams has added some longevity to my game (as did changing clubs), It seems that you can become fluent in the language after around 1 year of a managing a national team.

All and every language should be in the game, then, regardless of where it is spoken. Bring on the Cornish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom14 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Every language has a different difficulty setting so you will learn some quicker than you would others. For example Chinese is a difficult language you would have to manage a Chinese team/national team longer to learn it than you would, say, French. I wish I could add the language's I already speak when I setup a manager. I already know at least basic French, and Spanish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidder Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Not entirely related but wanted to ask, do staff pick up languages too?

I think it may depend on their adaptability rating as to how quickly they learn. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmithRDFC Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 I don't see any need for Welsh in the game, as we all know only 5% of people in Wales can read. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
