Czech even worse

South slavic language seem the simplest in that regard

@Jacob I wish I spoke more Polish, my grandmother taught me a little and I've been trying to teach myself.

Bulgarian is allegedly the easiest slavic language for a native English speaker to learn

eh I think Russian pronunciation might be harder than Polish pronunciation, it's just that Americans think they have a license to mispronounce Russian since it doesn't have all the diacritics and stuff that Polish has

@Virgil See, that's something I think is sad. That people end up uprooted from their families.

Americans routinely butcher the pronunciation of Spanish, which has one of the simplest phonologies of any commonly learned language

@Jacob that I can agree with. I barley know any of my cousins

Yes, it's strange that people don't first learn how to properly pronounce languages.

@ophiuchus Once you get it down, I think Polish pronounciation is easier than English

For some reason, they never teach people that the vowels in english =/= the vowels in other languages

I butcher Spanish on principle, not because I can't pronounce it

Yeah there's someone in my chapter whos family seems to move back and forth by generation

Based @missliterallywho

@missliterallywho I always pretend I can't understand spanish when mexicans try to talk to me even though I can

@Virgil What of Aeschylus? Were his works insignificant although most did not remember him?

If you're gonna speak a language, speak it how it's meant to be spoken. Jared Taylor is based.

Only Mexicans pronounce Spanish properly in California

@Natasha - PA Same, I really only know my parents

Spanish has 5 vowels, English has like 13.

spanish is european pls respect

I think German and Chinese are pretty easy

Literally anyone can learn it

Chinese has the easiest grammar of any language I've studied

The grammar of German on the other hand

I be, he be, we be, they be, that's what it be.

New World Spanish is about as European as ebonics @Natasha - PA

Sometimes it do be like that @ophiuchus

"He was" is literally "He be (past tense)"

@Jacob True, my family is extremely Americanized. They don't even cook Polish food or speak the language anymore. They can't even pronounce their Polish surname correctly anymore

More brown people are Spanish speakers as first language than white

@Virgil What about Pytheas; who was widely known in antiquity but now only remembered through the works of others? Do we discount his discoveries? No.

"Did you go to school yesterday?" = "You yesterday go (past tense) school (Question marker)"

@Virgil ooof sometimes I feel the need to correct people when they pronounce their own surnames incorrectly

Spanish is a POC language here and that's on the Spanish Empire

Sad!

we love our meds

Japanese grammar is weird

People with Polish last names always find the ugliest ways to mispronounce them, too.

No conjugation for person, but conjugation for mood

and tense, and aspect
