Best language in the world n that respect.
I just disagree with the description of 'rough'
And italians can't help but sound like fucking pussies.
French can be very fucking rough, though
italian is perfectly fine
french can be accented roughly
but its designed to be soft
its designed to be noble
> its designed to be soft
It's not "designed"
nobody designed french
it effectively is made such that the effect is soft
ahem, the academy responsible for maintaining it disagrees
stfu with you semantics
it just evolved from celtic and latin
@Goddess Tyche just the devil
French is a heavily policed language
i dont think anyone thinks it is noble
its a pretty tongue
but not particularly noble or inspiring
@Jack of Trades Well, the french are devils, and if you say that the speakers design their own language, then yes.
Also, how is the academy for "maintaining french" not something to protest.
didn't say it wasn't
Unless they're specifically maintaining the artificial official language and not telling the dialects they're using French wrong.
An authority to regulate the official language for legislation and formal stuff is fine.
Anything beyond is ludicrous.
iirc there's a specific tenet that stipulates no word of english can become common parlance
That's beyond retarded.
I can't recall if its a law, but its certainly a responsibility of the academy
I'm guessing that it's not like that for Arabic.
if it is, it may not be for long
although linguists are a stubborn breed
might even fight the government over it
Linguists are a diverse group. What matters is which of them have top credentials.
