Oof. So complete thoughts are required by the language structure?

Russian can be translated almost at the same pace as it is spoken

have any of you got the feeling you cant please anyone

its like

*i want to save money* - "You're hoarding money you pig"

*i want to go to college* - "Colleges will turn you into an sjw"

*i want to marry* - "Dont you know feminism has ruined women"

* i guess i wont marry* - "Then you've failed life and to "reproduce""

*maybe i'll buy a neat game or go to the movies* - "then you're irresponsible with money*


what the fuck do i do?

Russian has no word order

yeah, russian is .... head ache

yes, lauv

@Napoleon Lee Scott DO you and don't give a fuck

Oy vey how dare greaterisrael thotbergenstein insult the glorious and infallible france hurr durr baguette hon hon surrenderfag

Russian has a few weird things too
like "yes no" reply

german lanauge really does require complete, discrete thinking

It means "but actually no", and can mean yes anyway

@Napoleon Lee Scott but yes, society is a fickle bi-polar bitch to deal with

which is something that wasn't popular in english till recently

'yes but no'

@Napoleon Lee Scott Yes, you can't please everyone. Hell, sometimes you can't even please yourself.

German needs a bit of planning when you speak

MOST of the time you cannot please yourself

English need to have a preselected set of words to have the coreect meaning

Chinese doesn’t have a yes or no

Hate to agree, MA.. but *shrugs* It's true enough.

Russian, each word is unique and convey plenty of meaning, the order denotes your mood

WAs very annoying when learning

i have had good luck reducing german to simpler terms when trying to convey an idea

@PureEvilPie but they do

是的，没有

If someone asks “do you have this?” They will respond “I have” or “don’t have”

What are those then?

meh, any man of abilty will be their worst critic

otherwise, they wouldn't have been always striving to improve

They aren’t the English forms of yes or no

It’s not the same thing

Japanese and Chinese languages existed without having "yes"/"no" dichotomy for a long time

Anyhow, time to rise and shine - shower and all that going out into the world thing. Hopefully not crush too many dreams, or curbstomp too many hopes.

lol

But with the event of westerners they got that into their languages

Especially Japanese

Hai/Iiye

I’m not so sure, my Chinese girlfriend and family said they don’t really have a yes or no

Don't use

They have them

And I’m inclined to believe them considering they are highly educated Chinese
